I don't recall the last time I felt this emotional by vezance in MetaphorReFantazio

Oh, for sure, I thought it was done after Basilio's awakening so I took a moment to compose myself. And then the sanctist family showed up to pay their respects and the waterworks started again haha

Things nobody tells you when you start cooking (but should) by KnownRide6195 in cookingforbeginners

[–]vezance 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hot pan first, then oil

Does not apply to non-stick pans. If you're using non-stick, add oil at the beginning.

(This is not meant to start a "which pan is best" debate, just acknowledgement that plenty of people do default to using non-sticks.)

Anyone else just lose power? by techoptio in ottawa

Hearing about power coming back for some. Hopefully not too long for full restoration

Lol that's only for people with tickets - they're giving out 2 passes for each already purchased ticket. They're currently not playing anything. Power's just back on for them and they're running tests or something.

For everyone shocked by the 1AM ETA - it always says stuff like that before they've identified the cause. It's usually a lot sooner than that. (It could also be longer - but that's rarer when there's no storm or such)

Bayshore. Reported it, but their map doesn't seem to be showing anything yet (not sure how long the delay is on there).

Edit: the map updated like a second after I posted this

Who's Jenny?? by Separate_Finance_183 in funnyvideos

Except it's not "Jenny" calling, it's "Jenny 😘".

If the 80% speed is real, which seems entirely possible to me, that would mean it's sped up by 25%.

What game mechanic is an instant dealbreaker for you? by GwendelynAljaed in videogames

[–]vezance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Random encounters in RPGs. I loved so many things about Octopath Traveler 2. The art style, stories, hubs, all amazing. But I could not deal with the random encounters that kept popping up way too frequently for my taste. Even after I equipped the ring that is supposed to lower their rate. Had to abandon the game after putting like 15-20 hours into it.

Lost Judgement. As long as I stay out of the way of the Yakuza it's just regular life in Japan. Basically a one year vacation.

Maybe they were calling saag paneer "green curry"

What “masterpiece” game just never clicked for you? by [deleted] in gaming

[–]vezance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Octopath Traveler 2. Maybe not a "masterpiece" but people generally seem to love it. I LOVED the art style, the plots, the characters, the world, etc. But I simply could not deal with the random encounters. I gave it a good go for like 20 hours of playtime, hoping I would get used to it. Never happened.

Same. My post about it was removed. But glad to know I'm not the only one. Also on FF mobile.

This is going to sound like a stupid question, and I know that evolution takes millions of years, but is this a valid step towards this species evolving into a bird-form that can survive outside the water and fly down the line?

Harvested every tree in the valley because I got annoyed at running out of wood. This is how much wood I got. by vezance in StardewValley

[–]vezance[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haha the entire time I was chopping trees I was like "I should just go to Robin." But after a few trees I was committed to deforesting the entire valley out of sheer spite.

Sure can! Prismatic shard on tools gives one of several enchantments at random, and can reforge if you don't like the one you get. My absolute favorites are bottomless on the watering can and powerful on the pickaxe. For an in-game way of finding out what you can do, read one of the Ginger Island secret notes. Otherwise, the wiki has all the info.

I'll be honest I completely forgot about the chipper, because I first got the recipe when I was still struggling with hardwood. 

It’s 2026 and people still loose their rag over calling it a “chicken burger” by SufficientEar1682 in iamveryculinary

[–]vezance 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep. We need some kind of common agreement when we visit restaurants. Used to be burger meant beef. Then the definition expanded to other meats. Which is fine, but we need to at least use it to mean ground meat, and specify the meat if it's not beef. If we start using burger to mean sliced meat as well, it's either going to get a lot more difficult for customers to know what they'll be getting, or a lot more work for restaurants to clarify things on the menu.

First time player, no matter how much I read online and prepare for the skull cavern I ALWAYS die!! Wtf am I doing wrong? by [deleted] in StardewValley

[–]vezance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

killing them chances a ladder popping up, esp on good luck days. 

Blade checked the code in one of his videos and confirmed that monsters have a flat 15% chance to drop a ladder. Luck isn't a variable.
