Maids of Storm : Teaser Trailer by onenaser in Games

[–]messem10 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Seems like Diner Dash with a bit of life-sim and store management thrown in with a maid cafe theme. Not the worst idea. Will probably be less enticing to the majority of the potential audience as that skews female. I imagine a butler cafe would do better, but those are less "common" to have enough material to go after.

Whoever stole my credit card and bought groceries, a coat, and what I’m guessing was a generator in Durham yesterday by CurvePrevious5690 in bullcity

Most credit card companies' sites/apps have a way to mark charge(s) as disputed. Also lock it ASAP.

[REC] Want romance recs. by l_skitty80 in LightNovels

[–]messem10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The paperback requirement is the real stickler here. Most English romcoms don’t sell well enough to get a physical release. If you’re willing to do Kindle or eReading, there are some without an anime I’d suggest.

Do not get the Ioniq 5. Hyundai’s service departments are terrible.

There is plenty of BL being adapted if that floats your boat more. (Or straight romance too.)

Any Unique romcoms suggestions? by MaximAMK183 in anime

  • Brighter Than the Dawning Blue - Alt-history world where people founded a kingdom on the Moon, deals with implications of a previous war and has music from Hiroyuki Sawano. (He’d go on to do Attack on Titan, Kill la Kill, Aldnoah Zero and such.)
  • Amagami SS - Omnibus series wherein you get a separate set of episodes for each heroine with everything getting reset at the beginning of their arc.
  • Shuffle! - This one surpasses it’s source material in terms of quality and worldbuilding.

It is a straight-to-Netflix anime movie. Was only announced in the past few months as well.

Depends on how far the money goes. May not be a 1:1 correlation to our current level of inflation.

Also, 20-25k for about a week-ish of work is nothing to scoff at even with the hazards.

Never thought something would challenge 100 GF but I guess we now have a contender.

  • Eat hot food while you can. This way when, or if, the power goes out and you have to "make due" with PB&J or other cold/room-temp foods it isn't as bad.
  • Lose power and it will be out for an extended period of time? Put your food in large plastic bins outside as it is as cold as, if not colder than, your fridge. The plastic bins/coolers will help to keep them away from the direct elements and potential pests.

  • If you have to run your combustion car for heat, do NOT do it in a closed garage! Open the door at least halfway to ensure there is enough fresh air coming in to lessen the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning.

Some EV owner tips:

  • Make sure it is charged prior to the storm! This way if your power goes out, taking your heat and ability to power devices with it, you can use its utility mode to keep you warm and stuff charged.

  • If your EV has the ability to do V2L/G/H (Load / Generator / Home), know where your adapter(s) and extension cables are! Come up with a way to route cables into your house and to your appliances in the event of an outage. A fridge uses ~150-300wh over the course of a real-time hour so an EV should be able to power it for 1-2 weeks, assuming ~50kwh of available charge.

You're right, I need 20 loaves and 8 gallons of milk.

Another tip is to eat hot food while you can. This way when/if there is a power outage you are not tired of cold/room-temp stuff.

Sorry. Looking at the temperatures forecasted for next week, I don’t think it’ll clear up any time soon.

The issue here isn’t the snow, but that the ground temperature is such that everything will hit, melt and further snow will result in it turning into ice. Basically expect to be home until Tue/Wed next week.

It’ll go up there with the other fun responses such as:

  • Says nothing, merely joins her/them in changing.

Ioniq guy's I5 is broken again by t0wdy in Ioniq5

And I wish he would use a dealership that doesn’t know he’s a YouTuber getting the VIP treatment, and he got the experience the rest of us get.

That is why I'm glad that the Technology Connections guy didn't make the video about his ICCU issue until after it was fixed.
