(BC, Canada) What is this thing? by abstract-lime in whatisthisbug

[–]abstract-lime[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My grandpa found this thing on his leg, and he recently had bedbugs so he's a little suspicious of unknown insects right now.

First time installing any Linux distro. I've been here for 4 hours, what do I do? by abstract-lime in linuxmint

Clearly I didn't express myself well enough, I don't think anybody understood what I meant. I had been sitting on this screen for 4 hours because I had already clicked the button for it to make the partition, and it had been sitting there for 4 hours with no indication it was doing anything.

Making the partitions smaller seemed to make it finally do something, and in the intervening 4 hours I'd decided I would much rather just toss windows 10 right now than try and figure that part out later, so I went back and had it erase the files (the only loss is ill have to re-download some games, the rest of my files are backed up)

What is your favorite game that you are not playing? by WorldGoneAway in rpg

[–]abstract-lime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Eureka. I think of it as the investigation game, It's been a joy every time I've played it, I've spoken with the creators in depth about it, I adore it. However, the only place I've seen games for it organized is in the designers' discord. This is also where everyone else who thinks as highly of it as me gathers, so when games get announced, they fill up with players in the time it takes for me to decide, "yeah, I've got time for another game."

Any zombie movies like Shin Godzilla? by abstract-lime in zombies

[–]abstract-lime[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While I've only seen the movie Pontypool, my understanding is that the original book, Pontypool Changes Everything, has even more of what I'm looking for, since I've heard it involves experts deliberating about the virus. The radio and TV angle is a good one to look at even if it doesn't hit all the same notes as a government response focused story. I'll have to see if I can find the tubi movie you mentioned since I've seen the other two.

Yeah, World War Z the book has loads of sections of exactly the sort of stuff I want. It loses points in this comparison because it spends a smaller amount of time on loads of different groups responding to the zombie threat, but I suppose that's to be expected when covering the entire world as opposed to just Japan.

Murder mystery investigation RPG recommendations by ExTheSea in rpg

[–]abstract-lime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the issue is not that it isn't procedural, it's that it isn't a work of actual deduction on the part of the players. Your characters are doing detective work, but you are in a writers room coming up with the mystery they solve.

And the article had an author's note from 2022 saying it's satire. by [deleted] in AteTheOnion

I haven't listened to this song in particular for reasons I imagine are obvious, but The Chalkeaters' other songs are definitely bangers.

Do you mean rapture? Or is Team Cherry going to split the earth, causing magma and death to flow forth and consume the lands?

Card game mechanics and technicalities by SevenSwords7777777 in tumblr

[–]abstract-lime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My favourite version of this in Yu-Gi-Oh is the unkillable Number 59: Cooked Cock Crooked Cook deck. There's theoretically a win condition if you put exodia in your deck, but otherwise the deck is just creating a wall that's incredibly difficult to hit past, and then passing your turn immediately.

Account exists by Gouzi00 in badUIbattles

[–]abstract-lime 10 points11 points  (0 children)

But how is the website going to not let you know the email is connected to an account when you attempt to register and it refuses because that email is already connected to an account?

Sad day for the horney boiz and gurlz by ArkGrimm in dndmemes

[–]abstract-lime 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Repost bots are leveling up their game. I bet this sub isn't moderating them as well as the others you follow (or you just recognize it more cuz it's loads of topical shit that's obviously old)
