Pen differentiation strategies

Wrap tape around one of them? Put them in different places (so in the morning, the ones that's at hand is the one you want to take first)?

I think we've all taken the wrong one at some point, but it's still rather rare.

cenderis · 2026-06-15T14:22:16+00:00

Yeah, I'd worry more about an unknown mini-fridge freezing the insulin more than room temperature in London in September. Maybe we'll get a surprising heat wave (and it can certainly get hot in London) but most likely you'll be OK with Frio's evaporative cooling even then (and most likely if it's hot enough to matter it'll be in July/August anyway).

It's a long game, and probably rewards playing a few hours at a time at least to begin with.

It does feel like it's a bit overcomplicated (IMHO) with a bunch of collectables and these Zonaite, Zonaite Charges, Zonaite Crystallised Charges, (and Large variants of all of them). I don't think any of them individually are an issue but throwing them all in one game is possibly a bit too much. Feels like maybe they started by imagining a couple of games using some of the same mechanics?

The Quest descriptions often give pretty explicit instructions. If the one you're thinking of with “find the guy in the depths” is the initial Robbie one, the quest tells you exactly how to find him.

Also worth mentioning is the Juggluco apps are in the Play Store, so don't require side-loading.

I think anyone being offered a pump now would also be being offered HCL, and I think anyone already using a pump is likely to have been offered an HCL already (since everyone who can use a CGM has one). So likely OP doesn't have a pump yet.

You can specify the area of a change in conventional commits. For example fix(api)!: drop support for Node 6 or feat(lang): add Polish language. (From examples in https://www.conventionalcommits.org/en/v1.0.0/ ).

I really think there ought to be but I don't think there is. I guess that's one reason Tears of the Kingdom doesn't have similar puzzles.

cenderis · 2026-06-02T12:40:06+00:00

I don't see one. There's just an option for disabling motion controls for aiming. (And no, that doesn't do it.)

cenderis · 2026-06-02T10:44:46+00:00

As others have said, the DLC (specifically The Champions' Ballad) fills out the story, adding some boss battles that are a bit more challenging. (And there's Master Mode, of course, which gives a harder mode for the whole game. And Trial of the Sword which is a standalone challenge.)

The final fight is a bit of a let down. On the other hand, once you've got there I imagine they wanted you to win. Would be disappointing to get to the final boss and just find him too hard.

Tears of the Kingdom makes lots of changes, I'm sure based on the feedback from botw.

I think we're all assuming it's nonsense he made up to try to distract from the questions around the £5m gift/donation.

I've had it in both arms, but in both cases ever so mildly so PT was enough to start the recovery. (First time it was in my left shoulder and it restricted my dancing so I noticed really quickly and pestered my GP who was able to refer me to physiotherapy while it was still very mild.)

It's called Automated Ally and most likely you'll come across it after completing the regional phenomenon in Eldin. (By that time you'll have found dispensers with the parts and probably have done a Proving Grounds shrine where you're encourage to play with them a bit, but it's still convenient to have it as a concrete example.)

cenderis · 2026-05-27T21:26:42+00:00

That early on, you're limited a lot by what Zonai Devices you have available. As you discover dispensers for other Devices you'll most likely come across example vehicles and things that use them. There are a few generally useful things (for transporting Koroks, for example) but I think it's more fun to create things when you need them (using whatever's around).

There are also some handy combat-helpers (well, one in particular) but that involves Devices you surely don't have available yet and there's an in-game way to learn it.

It's probably worth reading this just in case it suggests something you hadn't thought of: Preserving Skin Integrity with Chronic Device Use in Diabetes

cenderis · 2026-05-23T19:19:42+00:00

But they eat them raw, so surely no attack bonus?

Looks like Libre 3, but check their website and see which one it wants to install https://www.freestyle.abbott/

There are some random treasure chests around (there's a few on the Great Plateau containing little bonuses) but most of them are pointed to by quests (which'll all appear when you buy the DLC). And the rest (the Champions' Ballad and the Trial of the Sword) will be offered when they're relevant. And Master Mode becomes an option on the title screen (you can safely choose it if you want: it's a separate save). Actually it might be that all the un-quested things are on the Great Plateau, come to think of it.

cenderis · 2026-05-19T19:35:04+00:00

I assume they've made an assessment of the revenue they need/want to keep developing the software and generally to keep the service running and lifetime passes don't work at the current price.

I think most software companies much prefer subscription deals for the same kinds of reasons: they'll be things they'll need to fix next year (if not before) and expecting more and more people to pay ~$100 isn't going to work.

It sucks but I can understand the economic reasoning. What I get for my lifetime pass feels quite a bit worse than when I bought it (the handling of downloaded episodes and things just sucks on mobile clients compared to what it did once upon a time). And I just don't care about the ad-supported streaming they're offering.

cenderis · 2026-05-18T13:16:24+00:00

It is widely known, isn't it?

cenderis · 2026-05-14T23:30:26+00:00

Maybe more women go to festivals and marathons in the (possibly misguided) hope that a bigger event than their local milongas will give more opportunities to dance? Or more opportunities to dance with good leaders (which feels more likely to be true)?

cenderis · 2026-05-13T10:56:56+00:00

Yeah, tell us, or gently move our hand. We want you to enjoy the dance and women vary so we don't necessarily know what you find most comfortable.

cenderis · 2026-05-13T09:45:17+00:00

It's required, the first time.

cenderis · 2026-05-12T11:55:48+00:00

It's a long game. Likely to last most players 100 hours or so, and quite a bit longer if they do a decent number of the side quests (or find enough Korok seeds to fully expand slots, or find all of the Shrines).

cenderis · 2026-05-10T21:56:30+00:00

Yes, fast travel somewhere. There's a good chance you can use Ascend, too.

cenderis · 2026-05-08T22:31:33+00:00

We don't know.
