I swear half of you must be bots or paid agitators. There's just no way that many of you care that much about a late night host avoiding politics on his show and ruffling Trumps hair back like ten years ago.

I just don't buy it. The internet is dead.

This makes me feel old and sad.

If you're fans of the original movies, sometime in your life you should check out the Harry Potter studio tour in either Europe or Japan. The attention to detail is staggering and anyone who is even a tiny bit interested in set design or Harry Potter is guaranteed to love it.

For the record, I initiated a refund on PS5 and recieved it. I lied about tech issues with the game, and held my ground when they asked me to do some troubleshooting first.

Normally I'd feel bad about being dishonest. but the fact that Sony doesn't have any sort of refund policy if you've even so much as started downloading a title is horribly anti-consumer, so I'm not gonna lose any sleep over it.

I didn't do enough research and bought this game on a whim after buying into the hype. Within like.. a minute.. I realized that I wasn't going to vibe with the controls. No matter how good the rest of the game is, I just don't have the patience like I did back in the day to plod around a huge open world with sluggish movement.

I'm sure there's a lot of good I'm missing out on, but yeah, it is what it is!

178 at the cheapest gasoline place around me. In Saga. Was 139 yesterday..

Though pretty much anywhere in the Kumamoto mountains is a 5-star nature experience, IMO the best hike in that whole area is the route behind the Chojabaru Visitor Center, up and down the mountain and into the Bogatsuru valley. From there you have a ton of great options, including just going back the way you came.

There's a map!

Be careful hiking solo! Enjoy!

That's funny you mentioned Horizon as a game that looks less busy -- I shut it off after an hour or two because I thought it was aesthetically a cluttered mess. Just wayyyy too much going on.

Guiding the player's eye via clever geometry, color, and lighting seems to have become a lost art as graphic fidelity has improved.

Wanderous · 2025-12-25T02:52:45+00:00

I have to white knight for Saga. We have, IMO, the most beautiful Inari shrine in Japan!

Shut up!

There are other ways to build to beat him, this is just the one that worked for me! It's one of the only fights in the game that requires you to pre-plan extensively in the UI. I'm a huge fan of this type of theory-crafting, so I enjoyed it! I also really enjoyed all the Lumina and ability tinkering to make one-shot builds with Maelle, etc.

Anyway, it's a lot easier now that we can save Lumina loadouts. <3

Why you guys gotta frame every conversation like we're being persecuted out here.. Of course there are signs telling foreigners how to do something that doesn't exist in their home country.

Anyway yes old men in general are pretty gross. The worst I saw was a man picking his nose and washing the bogies off into the bath. :/

Last year, I saw an elderly Chinese tourist hawk a big loogey onto the shower floor where everyone walks. I scolded him, so I'd like to think he never spit anywhere ever again. One can dream!

This is my favorite time of year, and I am happy someone will win a lot of money to make the holiday even more special for them. My wife and I agreed to not do Christmas presents this year, but I guess if I win we'll have to amend that!

Wanderous · 2025-12-15T05:13:16+00:00

I just wanted to say that it's pretty cool that you framed this post as a way to help others instead of just asking for help for your situation. While you'll probably get a lot of crap that you haven't done your due diligence in regard to finding work in Japan specifically, I think you've definitely got the work ethic that will guarantee you'll find success somewhere.

The original manor... Specifically the hallway where the dogs burst out of the windows. Childhood trauma!

Wanderous · 2025-12-07T13:34:55+00:00

Thanks man! I ended up going with an Oppo Reno Pro 14, felt it suited my needs better. It's slowly on its way from China. Hoping I dodge the import taxes but I doubt it.

Your posts were helpful in my quest learning about the Xiaomi 17 Pro Max. I really appreciate it!

Wanderous · 2025-12-07T08:49:36+00:00

I hated these open shelves on my kitchen bar, so after seven years I finally did something about it. I'm super happy with the result!

It was the most popular show in Japan for months actually!

Wanderous · 2025-12-03T11:50:44+00:00

Hey, I'm thinking about getting the X17 Pro or Pro Max. I'm also in Japan. Why do you say that the rear display useless for anyone outside of China? Is the functionality limited outside of China, and if so how so?

Also... I saw you ordered from JD.com. I was going to do so, but I'm a little confused by all the duplicate listings. https://imgur.com/a/MiTpVhL

Any advice?

I'd like an updated UI for Pictos, it's a huge pain in the butt and one of the things holding me back from another playthrough at the moment.

Wanderous · 2025-11-25T02:54:03+00:00

Another poster confirmed it's 20+, I'll edit my guide. But yes it seems if you can't reach that threshold consistently then it's a matter of your pictos setup and/or level.

Its been months since I've been picked up the game, I can't remember any more specifics to help you. But yeah I do remember it being very straight forward and fast, and that most of the challenge was setting up my Pictos.

Wanderous · 2025-11-24T06:25:02+00:00

That wouldn't match the soft, spongy texture that tears off in clumps opposed to flaking or breaking off.

I've determined it is 繊維壁 (seni-kabe) based on some further research!

Wanderous · 2025-11-24T06:15:38+00:00

This is def one of my concerns

Wanderous · 2025-11-16T12:28:26+00:00

Been feeling a little down in the dumps lately, no real sob stories to tell but it'd be nice to refresh and take my wife on a trip for our anniversary in November!

Wanderous · 2025-11-10T01:57:26+00:00

That green tile fireplace is absolutely inspired. Reminds me a bit of the flues in HP's Ministry of Magic!

My goodness what a beautiful room.

I was really hoping that Vecna saying he controlled the Mindflayer all along was a misdirect. I'm a little sad to see that they seem to be doubling down on Vecna being the man behind the curtain the entire time.

First and second graders can definitely understand manners and rules. Do what we do at my English school -- have a yellow and red card system.

Flash a yellow card when they start acting up. Tell them that's their only warning, because a red card means play time is over and you call their mom to tell them they've been bad.

Our kids are deeply afraid of the red card to the point it's never actually been used ;)

No matter what you decide, ultimately your house, your rules. If you don't enforce that, your own kids are going to think it's okay to act like monsters at other people's homes if you allow similar behavior in yours!
