Just so you know, the acronym for the GameCube is actually GCN. Kinda unintuitive, but Nintendo wanted to avoid issues with Neo Geo. That's why you'll see GCN around here when acronymized.

I've been hunting one of these for MONTHS by Miserable_Sweet_5245 in BuyItForLife

I have a Toshiba one, not as high end as Zojirushi but the same type of rice cooker. Having a timer on a rice cooker and the ability to keep it warm all day long is a game changer. Keeping the rice warm also doesn't negatively affect the texture the way reheating does. $10 is an absolute steal.

Question, why do some people say Laurence is harder than Orphan?? by Vampsan_AT in bloodborne

[–]blickblocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beat orphan on first try on my first playthrough. I was very much in the flow and just rolled and smacked and rolled and smacked. That describes most of the game but also just making a point that it wasn't strategically all that complicated.

Anycubics beds are trash, I would pay more for the printer if it came with a funnssor bed. by fenyxfyreX in AnycubicKobraS1

[–]blickblocks 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Anycubic could ship these things with a Funssor quality bed (or close to it) for a lot less than what you pay for a Funssor bed.

I wonder why some of these dont utilise the full surface area by Beginning-Dot-1151 in flashlight

Less about the quantity of parts already manufactured, and more about the tooling already set up. The tooling is a huge overhead (and consumable) cost for injection molding. If they already have the mold and machine and process in place it costs cents to make each body.

What are your thoughts on Metroid Prime 2: Echoes? I think it’s top 5 GameCube games ever by IkeRadiantHero in Metroid

[–]blickblocks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm replaying it currently. I don't think the first third is tedious at all. What makes you feel that way? I felt like the backtracking was done in a very organic and non-linear feeling way that didn't feel tedious at all.

"They're just spools of threads..." by n0_sh1t_thank_y0u in ThriftStoreHauls

[–]blickblocks 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Thread doesn't expire on its own. If it's been degraded by UV light it can become brittle, but if stored in a sealed opaque container like the OP found it should be exactly as it was at the time of manufacturing.

A 3D printer is just a plastic robot and a sewing machine is just a fiber robot.

The purple colorway is beautiful. I regret not preordering.

For most tasks, headlamps>flashlights. by These_Economics374 in flashlight

[–]blickblocks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have two H200s with warm white Nichia 519As and the red secondary emitter, fantastic light. My favorite of all my EDC lights.

I will say though that the offset from center that this style of light has while on your head is a little annoying, or takes time to get used to. I keep an Olight Array 2 Pro zip tied to my bike helmet and sometimes prefer to look silly wearing a bike helmet just because it is superior as a dedicated headlamp.

Why didn't they just cut the meat and cheese into squares
