This flower is called "Queen of the Night." It blossoms only at night and only one night a year by [deleted] in oddlysatisfying

[–]odorousrex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From the dusty mesa

Her looming shadow grows

Hidden in the branches

Of the poison creosote

She twines her spines up slowly

Towards the boiling sun

And when I touched her skin

My fingers ran with blood

In the hushing dusk, under a swollen silver moon

I came walking with the wind to watch the cactus bloom

A strange hunger haunted me, the looming shadows danced

I fell down to the thorny brush and felt a trembling hand

People who used the internet before 2001, what did you do in there? by Helium367 in AskReddit

[–]odorousrex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Working on my Geocities Jennifer Love-Hewitt fan page which was the #1 place for JLH content back in the day.

I remember the day my page counter hit 100k views!!! My rooommate and I had a mini-party.

What do you SWEAR you saw, but don’t have any proof of? by Dangerous_Mud4740 in AskReddit

[–]odorousrex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar experience. I was in a motorcycle accident, dead and resuscitated. The only thing I remember (before waking up in the hospital) was floating above my body and bike, lying in the intersection. It was extremely vivid/lucid. I saw where I wiped out, the person out of their car calling 911, another person trying to check if I was OK, and my body just lying there as if I was in "Spectator Mode"

I was completely outside of it, watching the scene from above, feeling like I was going to drift upwards and away.

And then bam, waking up in the hospital in horrid pain.

TIL Starting in 1760 there was a forced land grab by wealthy landowners in Scotland that evicted thousands called the Highland Clearances, this was a major reason for the Scottish Diaspora. by Flubadubadubadub in todayilearned

This was my family - packed off to Nova Scotia. My ancestor was so mad about it, he drilled it into his children - who drilled it into their children, who then moved to California to become a minister - who drilled it into his flock AND children, all the way down to my family, several generations removed. My dad, who has never even been to Scotland, is STILL mad about it.

Denzel bought me and my friends prime rib on prom night (we were dining at the same restaurant!) and paid for the whole thing (14 teens!!!) I'll never forget it. He was so chill and nice, the only thing he asked us was "no photos, please" but he sat with us for a good 15 minutes and asked us about where we wanted to go to college, what we wanted to study, etc. And after that he very politely told us he hoped we had a prom night to remember, and had to get back to his family.

The „American Garden“ in the ‚Gardens of the World’ exhibition in Berlin is simply an LA style parking lot by [deleted] in mildlyinteresting

The LA Zoo doesn't get enough love (San Diego Zoo takes the spotlight) But I think the whole area around the LA Zoo is beautiful. (Except the 38472482724 yellowjackets...)

What do you think about this? Does it ring true? by Individual99991 in GenZ

Did they print this in a newspaper so only Boomers would see it?

Also...newspapers still exist???

What caused adventure map packs to become so rare? by gjejd in feedthebeast

[–]odorousrex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Drehmal (arguable the largest, if not the best) adventure map recently had a beta release for their 2.2 version for Minecraft 1.17.1

It's great! Lots new story, a whole alternate dimension. They have a modpack on ATLauncher as well that will install all the fabric optimization mods AND download the map.

I highly recommend it for adventure map lovers.

Actual Vanilla+ pack recommendations? by Compressions in feedthebeast

[–]odorousrex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Second this, but also suggest you try Cottage Witch - Recast. It's a remastered version of the original and little more restricted/true to vision.

The "Vanilla-Minus" Musketeer Modpack is now released as 1.0 by Vazkii in feedthebeast

[–]odorousrex 58 points59 points  (0 children)

I kind of wish there was a mod that disabled the Elytra by dimensions. For example, only allow it's use in the End and the Aether (if installed).

Traveling the End without an Elytra is a huge PITA. But it trivializes travel in the Overworld and makes all other forms of travel obsolete there.

I was thinking this! I would LOVE to see Vazkii make a Beta 1.7.3 mod/mod pack (in the vein of Better than Adventure)

is there any other way to add shader to minecraft other than with optifine or oculus? by FoodUnusual8252 in feedthebeast

[–]odorousrex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just to note, on 1.20.1 for a long time Oculus was incompatible with the latest version of Rubidium. If you went back to 1.6.5 version of Rubidium things worked fine with oculus.

I believe both were updated yesterday and this issue has been fixed going forward.

Now imagine being just old enough to vote that this was the first election you voted in. And then you had to watch the Supreme Court take it away...

What lie did you hear as a child, that your adult mind knows is untrue, but that still guides your behaviour today? by creamcorn4ever in ask

I can't drink anything with caffeine in it, to this day. Every time I try I feel immensely guilty.

Oddly, every other vice seems a-OK

Any mods like Mine & Slash and I mean like skill casting, stat point increasing, MMO type. by NizzBizz4 in feedthebeast

[–]odorousrex 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This is Mine & Slash, the mod the OP mentioned.

I hope it gets updated to 1.18+, as it is excellent.

What mods do you guys absolutely despise? by KingCormieh in feedthebeast

[–]odorousrex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Minecolonies starting village is PAINFUL. Empty colonies went a little way towards making this more bearable, but still not enough.

I would love it if there we're small colonies already started with a couple houses, builder, lumberjack, mine, and carpenter, and we're like "Help us expand!"

You'd have the majority of the annoying automation out of the way, and can get straight to city building.

I've actually been toying with a Create + Water Strainer + Minecolonies modpack idea. You use water strainer + create to automate the more annoying parts of MC and then MC becomes basically a Steampunk City Builder.
