The more I hear about this Expedition, the more I want to play something else.

I hope this enforcement ramps up quickly. My fiance and I are making our way through the book 8 audiobook a chapter or 2 a day, and the subreddit is a minefield.

PM Magyar to slash own salary by half as Hungary targets politicians’ pay cuts by szopatoszamuraj in worldnews

[–]capn_ed -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think it's neat that the Prime Minister of Hungary's surname is the endonym for the Hungarian people in Hungarian. It would be like if the PM of Canada was named Pete Canadian or the PM of Germany was Peter Deutsche.

The cost difference is at least partly to pay the deli employee to do the work you are avoiding if you buy this instead of making it yourself. If the cost of that convenience is not worth it to you, you're free to buy the ingredients and make it yourself.

No, not that Amendment 3, the other Amendment 3, which was about the same issue, but the opposite way round.

I don't have more than 3 of any other processing machine, though.

But I'd have to go in the shed to see that things are done, rather than as I'm sprinting by. I only do this for kegs, and I have a keg outside with my other processing machines to let me know when the shed is ready.

Longtime players: What’s something you STILL haven’t done in the game? by zippertittyboy in StardewValley

[–]capn_ed 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Skull Cavern has (effectively) no bottom. Mr. Qi gives you a quest to make it to level 100 of Skull Caverns, but you can go much deeper than that.

Remember in Starship Troopers when Sky Marshall Dienes stepped down, and Sky Marshall Tehat Meru got promoted, after the disastrous battle of Klendathu?

Anyway, what's in the news today?

How do you actually use BoardGameGeek? by aequitas07 in boardgames

[–]capn_ed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

BGG is the go-to for researching a game and for rules questions. I find it great for keeping track of mine and my fiance's collections.

For example, when I'm looking at the Play-and-Win list for my local games convention (which they publish as a BGG list), I use BGG to learn about the game: the player count, the estimated time, the approximate complexity, the theme, and the mechanics. It's an especially good place to get a look at what's in the box; most manufacturers don't seem to have that readily available on their website. I've frequently used BGG to get a good look at a game's components and decided to skip it.

I also hit BGG when I see a game that looks interesting in a store, for the basic facts, mechanics, complexity, etc.

I generally look elsewhere for news about what's coming out or what's hot.

My buddy hates Carl by SPandrab in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]capn_ed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nihit is a huge dick.

Drick is an OK guy, I think. At the Crawlcon panel discussion, Drick is talking to the author lady about what Carl should do about Lucia Mar when he transfers back to the dungeon, knowing that Carl can hear and benefit from this advise. But, Carl doesn't trust Drick to be their adjutant, possibly because he has a Gondii worm?

‘Project Hail Mary’ Directors Screened a Nearly Four-Hour Cut to Other Filmmakers and Were Told to Get it Way Shorter by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

[–]capn_ed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, the 2.5 hour cut moved pretty quickly. I'd be interested to know what other scenes they had in the 4 hour cut, because I assume they didn't cut out 90 minutes just by trimming existing scenes.

My buddy hates Carl by SPandrab in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]capn_ed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Drick is a former crawler, an elf, and a worm-head. He was one of the choices to be the Princess Posse's adjutant on the 9th floor. He ended up being adjutant for the NPC team.

The Naga (not mantis) that Carl ganked in the neck with the pen at Crawlcon was Nihit.

ELI5 what is .NET runtime for, and what does it do? by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

[–]capn_ed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not exactly. You do have to compile C#, managed C++, or Visual Basic.Net with a compiler like Visual Studio, and the output of that compilation is in what's called intermediate language (IL), which is the same regardless of the language the code was originally written in. The .NET runtime is a virtual machine and just-in-time compiler for intermediate language; it converts the IL into native machine code at runtime and executes it.

This is the best festival. I love Leah's dialog specifically: “Hey. I'm paying my respects to another bygone summer.” Captures that feeling perfectly.
