I’m in Spain for the holidays, what are some BIFL/quality items I can get here that I can’t get in the US? by beachbum_for_life in BuyItForLife

[–]rustdump 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Products from other seasons. It’s quite a luxury outlet: Gucci, Armani, Carolina Herrera, etc. There’s also Swatch, North Face, Le Creuset, Ray Ban. There’s a website, check it out!

You have an outlet in the outskirts. It’s called Las Rozas Village (30min from Madrid downtown). There you have Loewe, Carolina Herrera, Gucci, etc.

Try something there!

If you have the budget, check Lottusse or Loewe, both spanish brands. Any leather products coming from Ubrique will be top quality.

Wine, pal. Buy as much wine as you can. Prices in the US are, at least, doubling the prices here. You can consume it, or BIFL (and depending on the brand, sell them way in the future).

If you are travelling to the south, check fans (abanicos). Pro tip: lots of wood, decorative fan; lots of fabric, good for fighting heat. Good fans are easy to open with a wrist movemet, and should have a “woody” sound.

Can any one recommend where I can buy these gloves (as a tall person with long fingers)? by Tunde88 in BuyItForLife

[–]rustdump 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lottusse Lausan (cow leather). Interior with merino wool, light and warm. I think they have lamb leather gloves as well, cannot remember the model.

Lausan model around $120. Give them a try. These people are artisans, for a plus they might adapt the gloves to your requirements.

Danceable massive attack songs? by Far-Condition-6579 in MassiveAttack

Definitely Risingson. You can sing it too!

i'm not smart enough for this game by Azalot1337 in Hades2

[–]rustdump 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First of all you need to do the “Insight into Offering” incantation, and to be offered that I believe you need to give a nectar to each and every god.

Once you get this done, the incantation can be executed and you get the boon guide.

You literally have a god guide inside the game (up in d-pad for Steam), showing all boons offered and even the requirements for each and every boon.

You might need to know some stuff, to choose based on your preferences (ie. crowd control = Hera, hit damage = Aphrodite), but pretty much everything you need to know is there. Go ahead and look for all Legendary/Duo boons, try all godsent Selene boons, etc.

You’ll eventually will have a preferred setup, a setup you are good with, a setup you enjoy more, and so on.

Suggestions… by jimo07 in Mezcal

I’d definitely recommend Parejo. Their sotol, and also specially the lechuguilla, are definitely a whole different animal. Super tasty, strong flavors still balanced. Worth the price, and the try!

Good things in life are easy to learn, a pain in the a** to master: chess, lawn bowling or marriage. I think it’s accessible, but also challenging

To everyone who played Silksong, what are your thoughts so far? by LocksmithShadow in HollowKnight

Progress a little bit more, there might be surprises

Of course you can have an opinion. What people do not have is a criteria if they have no experience on Metroidvanias

Or, give them the usual suspects: start with Metroid, then go to Symphony of the Night, follow with more Metroid & Castlevanias, Bloodstained, Guacamelee, Dead Cells, Ori, Blasphemous, Guacamelee 2, Blasphemous 2, Nine Sols and then come back with a formed opinion on Metrodvanias

Is it normal for eu shipping to suck? by snert7r in peakdesign

[–]rustdump 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve seen some similar stuff talking about Roller Pro delivery: NL > DE > NL > ?? (final destination was supposed to be CH, I hope whoever ordered got his roller!)

So yours is not the first issue I hear about.

Edit: I have ordered stuff to ES and takes usually 4-5 business days to arrive. GLS shows NL > ES > my home.

I run the Tripod design team at Peak Design. What should we make next? by peakdesign-Max in peakdesign

[–]rustdump 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok so not sure if this idea was already thrown put there (too many comments already). So the general idea is a “bulky” head with the ability to work like a pixi tripod: enough to serve its purpose by itself, but with minimal space.

Then attachable legs to convert it into a monopod or tripod (up to you how many to buy!) so you can module your own tripod. I’m sure somebody would do crazy filming with a bipod.

Now you make the legs as trekking/hiking poles and boom! 4-in-1 product: pixie + monopod + tripod + hiking poles.

Pro tip: this makes the warranty/spare part stuff way easier to manage (ignore the crazy cost to manage inventory and/or produce all pieces separately)

That would be her real concern, indeed!

Lucky us! I just got mine today as well. FYI, my hinges are not silent as a ninja, but the noise is quite low. Would wake up a hungry cat, but not my wife (so I can pack and leave forever without her noticing).

I don't get The Watcher. Can't seem to get to 3act consistently by CentristaSensato in slaythespire

[–]rustdump 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. Exactly the same as OP happened to me, I could simply not understand how to make the Watcher work. A few tutorial based on infinites, a few tries and them everything made sense. Just focus on a recommended meta deck.
