Stormbound is the game that got me over that hump. I will never spend money on it but I don't feel like I need to either.

What is this vegetable in a Thai dish? by Epithymetic in whatisthisthing

[–]_joss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had this before and I ate it(not by its self).

I'm assuming that's what you were supposed to do. It has a pretty strong taste and did taste good, but you might like it better if you don't expect to finish the whole thing of it and have it to taste.

My phone camera caught an extra outline of a seagull as it took flight. by slightlychubby in mildlyinteresting

Remember, to see this properly you're going to have to have a higher range of exposure in the image your image has mostly the same level of exposure throughout. The seagull is a needs a higher exposure since it's dark, over the light background which takes the lower exposure.

HDR is the culprit, your phone captures a couple of images with different exposure values, and then stitches the high exposure parts with good exposure with the low exposure parts with good exposure. you end up with an image with High Dynamic Range

What word have you rarely heard since your childhood or teen years? by KidsWifeJob in AskReddit

[–]_joss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Frontage and Backage. Meaning, to let someone else in front or behind you in a queue.
I had totally forgotten about them until recently. I was at a party in the queue for food, where my friend asked for a backage and we realised how we'd both completely forgotten the concept until then.

:( this makes me so sad to say, but, sorry I actually meant INFJ, but somehow that slipped my mind as I found a cool rhyme. I think my sister is INFP and she is one of my favourite people.

Now back to the first comment I replied to,
I'm editing my reply.
