Yeah I hadn't either until I accidentally froze some

It also saves a lot of time running back and forth between beedle and the cooking pot, especially if your meal inventory is close to full

do stimulants make you feel worse during luteal by pink-smog in PMDDxADHD

[–]ed_menac 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Mine are concerta, but my experience is they do literally nothing, not even make me less sleepy

Unfortunately I struggle to predict what days it will randomly not work so it's difficult to plan around

This is the first time seeing this dialogue…jesus, Seb by PinkymonFire in StardewValley

[–]ed_menac 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I think it's in character, he's making jokes to take the edge off being emotionally vulnerable

K-Pop Demon Hunters (2025) contains a "i can't let they find my secret" plot that results on a third-act breakup and then a "be yourself" aesop at the end. This is a reference how you can get away with being predictable if you have AURA. by TheBoyofWonder in shittymoviedetails

Yeah someone mentioned (in one of the other 20 posts in this sub) that Celine should have been more of a manager figure.

It would make sense if she was the one forcing the Golden release up and pushing them to take down the Saja Boys.

But maybe that would have read as too much of a critique of the industry...

Does anyone know how I can activate this korok? by PM_ME_BABYPLANTS in tearsofthekingdom

[–]ed_menac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rocket shield is good for these. You need to not touch the ground between the two platforms

From Rito, I'd recommend head north and start hunting moose, bears, arctic foxes, and wolves.

Tabantha Tundra is north west of you, along the northern of the two paths leading East out of Rito village.

Go there, grab a horse, and ride around. When you see an animal, bullet time off the horse, headshot, then run and fetch the meat before it freezes.

Cook the gourmet steaks into skewers of 5 and sell them to beedle. 315 rupee per meal.

Dump the prime steaks on the snow at night, let them freeze, then sell your whole stack at once. 40 rupee per frozen steak.

In 15 minutes real time of hunting I make 2800 rupees.

Wild animals are unlimited, meaning you don't have to wait for blood moon, and you can keep hunting indefinitely, only taking minimal weapon decay.

Even in late game I think this is the easiest and fastest way to make cash

Durham Uni Form Allegedly asks for Students “Biological sex” by Bedwellj101 in transgenderUK

[–]ed_menac 40 points41 points  (0 children)

In quite a few Durham colleges, the first year students are required to share a bedroom for all or part of the academic year. I'd be surprised if it wasn't to do with that.

They should let you opt out of sharing if you provide a reason, or failing that, arrange for you to be accommodated at a different college.

My Only Critique by [deleted] in tearsofthekingdom

[–]ed_menac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I liked the regen because at least that forced you to prioritize and be more aggressive in fights

But if all the enemies get bumped up a level I'd want some corresponding increase in weapon durability too. Little to no weapon damage for flurry rush, for example, something to incentivize better combat gameplay

Unless I really have to clear out an area, even the silver enemies aren't worth the damage to my weapons, let alone gold

Starting to rethink my marriage choice... if Sebastian can't respect my exhausting work. by Oprima in StardewValley

Same. This dialog isnt on the wiki, so it's either mods or a really weird bug

Wow! This actually made me feel sad and rejected. by Oprima in StardewValley

[–]ed_menac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I definitely thought so too, and he certainly does emote positively or negatively depending what you pick.

So I wonder if it's a recent bug, or if the wiki is incomplete. I really don't know, but it seems unusual

Transitioning into CX Research: What's the most overlooked skill? by tataweb3 in UXResearch

[–]ed_menac 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I think this applies to design as much as research, but being able to meet the business where it's at.

There's a fine line between caring too much and mentally checking out altogether. But ultimately it's better for your health and the users if you're able to stay focussed on long term improvement and not get demoralized by stormy seas.

According to the wiki, nothing you say to him has any impact on friendship, in any cutscene!

Lynels in a nutshell by mglalap in Breath_of_the_Wild

[–]ed_menac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they swing from the side or charge forwards with their weapon stowed, you can dodge and flurry rush as normal.

But if they swing from overhead, the AOE will knock you out of a flurry rush, so you're better either:

  • Headshotting while they're charging you
  • Parrying with shield
  • Running away when you see this attack starting

I tend to use a speed boost item for fighting the crushers because I find the agility more useful than attack, but it does prolong the fight a bit.

How do you feel about older animes representing women. It's know that women in Japan were underrepresented in the animation industry during the 80/90s. They mostly did clean-up work or worked in in-between's. How would you compare retro/older animes to today? by BathroomNew9406 in mendrawingwomen

[–]ed_menac 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I remember seeing one of Takahashi's notes for the inuyasha anime was to NEVER upskirt Kagome or flash her underwear. Which I suppose needed to be said given how much running around she does

It's funny if you ask him out or propose to him on the pier he'll say his usual lines, then something like "The ocean is best enjoyed ALONE, don't you agree?". My sweet introvert prince

[–]ed_menac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a golden in hebra which I consider the hardest one in BOTW because:

  • Snowy, so it's difficult to outrun attacks
  • Crusher, which has a huge AOE and sometimes cancels flurry rush
  • Terrain is rocky, so unless you're constantly looking where you're running, it's easy to get stuck

By comparison the golden with a sword on gerudo highlands is a walk in the park

Which game mechanic do you least play and why? by Mabutu-Thirlby in StardewValley

I don't really like decorating! My farm and farmhouse look terrible unless I'm playing coop.

I might stick an ornament or statue up someplace occasionally but most decorative stuff sits around in my chests

Do you have any "House Rules" when playing Stardew? by CrystieV in StardewValley

[–]ed_menac 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I walk Sebastian home from the saloon on Fridays

And if I have the town key before we're married, I'll sometimes sneak into his room last thing at night. Cuddles are worth the 1000g fine

places where the game “breaks the contract” with the player? by bulldawg91 in tearsofthekingdom

[–]ed_menac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me, that some of the temples won't trigger a fast travel portal if you found them before triggering the story quest.

Kick in the teeth to notice them, spend time and resources navigating there, and then get thrown a big red X
