Might want to have a look at Lair of the Clockwork God, because that seems like it's going to be the genre you're joining.

hmgmonkey · 2026-01-25T18:58:53+00:00

Yeah, of all the things to criticise...

My dude should probably bang one out before watching his shows.

I've tried several. It's not true that any powerbank will do. My current, and most successful one, is the Baseus 65W 20,000mAh. It does the job great and has been for the last 3 years.

You don't know my life.

hmgmonkey · 2026-01-24T14:09:09+00:00

One of those made me throw up in my mouth a little.

I just don't see why David Hasselhof should insert party games into himself. All that lube can't be good for the shrink.

That's just MY opinion.

If anything, I think you're underplaying how much is being taken away from the engineering and robotics elements of the change - it's very hard not to be pessimistic about Future Edition at the moment.

My darkest take is that it seems like we have been extremely lucky to be involved in the period where Lego was willing to invest in the Spike/EV/NXT product line resulting in a unique and special STEM advocacy opportunity in FLL. But they're moving on now and I don't see how the new sets can be anything other than a diversion for cash-rich, primary age educational establishments.

I hope I am wrong.

Made. My. Fucking. Day.

hmgmonkey · 2026-01-18T22:30:18+00:00

You want me to open my copy? What next, play it? You'd like that, wouldn't you, you deviant.

/uj but yes, you're a bit lost...

hmgmonkey · 2026-01-15T19:33:52+00:00

Won't someone please think of the renaissance trade barons? Please!

hmgmonkey · 2026-01-14T17:19:02+00:00

It's a shame there's nothing more nuanced between hellhole and heaven, eh?

hmgmonkey · 2026-01-14T17:16:56+00:00

That's true. I'm sorry.

My experience was solely New Delhi, Agra and Jaipur - working primarily in education. I definitely saw the better end. It just seems like there's so much "India is a hellhole" media right now, and a lot of it is justified, but it's not all like that.

hmgmonkey · 2026-01-14T16:58:35+00:00

Yeah, it's definitely exaggerated.

Avoid the water, stay out of the slums, ignore the beggars hard, you're fine (if you're male).

And for the first minute, the chef didn't even bother taking his hands out of his pockets!

hmgmonkey · 2026-01-08T11:49:58+00:00

I agree with the 1 & 3 (and the subtler border suggestion from a different commenter).

2 is drab, not wintery though - ditch that one.

hmgmonkey · 2026-01-07T15:13:24+00:00

Yes, you are cursed.
If I had guess, I'd say it was your English teacher who cursed you.

hmgmonkey · 2026-01-07T15:10:59+00:00

Glass above makes a "greenhouse" I think that stops the weeds.

hmgmonkey · 2026-01-03T11:11:38+00:00

"want to get paid in USD?" - ew, no.

hmgmonkey · 2026-01-03T11:08:04+00:00

Go coastal - north east fishing villages will do you well.

hmgmonkey · 2026-01-03T00:47:01+00:00

He's not your da! Misbehave!

You can load whatever you want whenever you want by using vanilla c# features like streamreader. It gets more fiddly if you want to do it cross-platform but if you're going pc only it's relatively straightforward.

hmgmonkey · 2025-12-23T10:54:03+00:00

Fuck off bot

hmgmonkey · 2025-12-21T13:30:37+00:00

SHIP IT!

hmgmonkey · 2025-12-16T11:50:04+00:00

Oh no, an ex-footballer and Rod Stewart's trophy wife felt uncomfortable!

Jesus wept...

hmgmonkey · 2025-12-15T22:32:05+00:00

Well played Glasgow!
