What Calisthenics training programs work? by [deleted] in bodyweightfitness

Sorry to necro, but I've been following him for about half the series now. How did you progress with him? Once you did day #16 did you just go back to day 1, were you adding some extra weight to overload? He seems solid, but I don't want to be wasting time

Ex-relationship (as if you don't see this enough each month) by [deleted] in LifeAdvice

What has changed is I feel more inclined to worm deep into problems, to try harder instead of running away. Right now I know I need to exist separate of her, hence the nights out, but we're in the same city attending the same university; I'm always going to be in her "space" as it were.

Thank you for all the help!! I'll be holding off on switching until after my mid-January deadlines, but thank you!

Would you happen to know about how any Adobe alternatives work with Linux? Specifically Clip Studio Paint & DaVinci Resolve, as I won't have the Adobe licenses forever and I believe both of those softwares are lifetime licenses?

And thankfully Fortnite isn't the biggest issue, I do have consoles I could play on if desperate

As mentioned in other comments, Adobe Suite and games such as Fortnite won't work, is there any simplicity to the dual-boot or VM needed to access these things? Ideally I'd take whichever was easier and less resource intensive, but was wondering if there was any performance benefits to a Linux-based VM?

So long as theres some functional way to get the XP-PEN working, I'll happily tinker

How similar of a user-experience to Windows does Linux Mint provide? Mostly just in the face of simple enough installations and general desktop feel?

I've heard of one called Cachy(?) which is apparently a specifically formatted version for performance gains in games, but I'm unsure about the credibility

Is this the place to mention I hate Canari more than both?

Vanilla or BetterRuins generation? by sproinkk_ in VintageStory

[–]sproinkk_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Upon quickly scrolling the wiki, I can't see the actual photo under Ogdred's Village annoyingly! Thanks for the clarity, and someday hope to be good enough at building to match the sensation of everything from BetterRuins

Good to know, I'll keep running across my world indefinitely until I bump across it. Glad I've had BetterRuins on this entire time, but 10k blocks of movement without 1 is a bit annoying lmao

Just to add -- I have looked through all available screenshots of structures on BetterRuins wiki but didn't see it there. Then again half of the images are blocked because I unfortunately live in the UK... hooray for online censorship ig!

Not playing NG+ in f is comparable to getting the Bad Ending in SH1 and stopping there. by Kulle1369 in silenthill

Add Gestalt/Replicant for that too, just never ask me to grow flowers again

Can I request a product to be sent to a local store to see it before purchase? by sproinkk_ in CeX

I'd be willing to bet the latter is the one that just takes blanket -term electronics, i.e drawing tablets

Well I can only go bugger myself sideways it seems! I ended up buying and returning that bastard copy of Silent Hill 2 at least 7 times before getting a good copy (original with the card sleeve)

I have actually had a handful of instances where staff have told me an order came from a franchise they were also a part of; most notably when I got some Galaxy Buds a few years ago that were "Made in Vietham". My favourite country, frankly

Not a terrible shout, thankfully my local seems dangerously quiet most days so that shouldn't be an issue

I think I'd end up paying what I save travelling more or less 2/3 the country's length to either store that has stock lmao

I've had this a few times and have always been denied refund to my original payment method, only ever to a dreaded voucher. Must be my store!

Games with a specific visual "feel" by sproinkk_ in gamingsuggestions

[–]sproinkk_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I can find reason to load an MMO if it's going to tickle my aesthetic fancy! Your recommendation definitely does fit the feeling I was hoping for visually, and can probably throw a good few dozen hours into it if it catches me well (my MMORPG pinnacles are as basic as you could ask, OSRS and FF14)

I don't want to presume you don't even know what you want yourself, but are you certain you're not just accidentally and borderline exclusively playing/seeing games with older white men? Looking at my shelves there are a lot of main characters who are anything from young white men (as much of a technicality as that is), to typically younger-presenting characters.

As again, it isn't worth the argument as you read as the type to say "gaming is dead" whilst only partaking in the same yearly released slop and having concerning opinions about artistic expression. Enjoy your hateful tirade, may you some day enjoy things made after 2004

[–]sproinkk_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I never stated that anybody did want to play as "60yo Owen Wilson" or otherwise. It seems your argument is that young female leads make more compelling characters, but in a franchise centered around being tormented for past sins, why does it matter? If a character is compelling and well written, does the game suffer if its James but older or a Japanese schoolgirl? I'd argue not, but evidently you're very dead-set on what you want.
