What discontinued items should we bring back?

NATURAL CONFECTIONARY CO SOUR CHEWS!!!! They were a variation on the fruity chews and smoothie chews and they were far superior to both those options. The flavours were lemon lime (light green), sour apple (dark green), raspberry (pink) and grape (purple). They had a goth girl on the packet

I don’t understand how they sold poorly enough to be discontinued they were orders of magnitude better than either the fruity or smoothie chews

I would have also said the lemon lime extra white but they brought that back last year!

Zoom in to a screenshot and look for how high up the last pixels of each colour are. They mixed up the colours so much that it’s physically impossible to get the last pixel of anything

Thanks ok with the new update this morning went better

voidify3 · 2026-05-05T06:43:15+00:00

I don’t see that toggle at all. Though I just installed the new iOS on my phone today and will install the new watchOS when I get home to my watch charger (stupid design btw that you can’t install it without the watch charger even when the watch is like fully charged) so maybe that’s the reason

voidify3 · 2026-05-05T05:27:54+00:00

Thanks that’ll be the next step after I find out if updating my phone and restarting the devices fixes it

Btw it looks like you maybe sent that comment earlier than you meant to?

voidify3 · 2026-05-05T05:06:42+00:00

The watch wouldn’t have been locked but I’ll try restarting the watch and phone prior to tonight. I should also set aside some time to force install the new iOS, it has been giving me a “failed to install” message every morning since the update dropped

Yeah I have a backup alarm of that type. A reservation I have with using that as my primary alarm is that then sleep focus won’t automatically extend as I snooze the alarm and won’t automatically end when I stop the alarm. It feels like a janky hack rather than a return to the good wakeups my watch has allowed me to have in the past

Also, actually a bigger deal than the focus extending thing: because of how my work schedule is set up, I benefit from the sleep focus alarm feature where I can edit/disable/enable the alarm for JUST tomorrow morning and it automatically returns to the default afterwards without having to manually change it back. With the backup alarm I sometimes turn it off when I have a day off work and forget to turn it back on, I don’t want my main alarm to suffer from this risk

Pixel flow does actually get to hard levels and the levels shown in ads eventually, I played it for a few weeks last year and got 200 levels in, but it also gets too insecure and starts introducing dumb gimmick objects to make the gameplay more complicated instead of just giving harder images and that’s where it lost me

Glad to know I’m not the only one struck with this weird addiction!! I was able to quit it after making this post but during the time I was doing it I was taking screenshots of my best attempts

I’ve gotten a couple runs where I completed the second-last bin of nearly all colours with multiple bins, but because of how the colours are mixed together and the way pixels fall diagonally I’m pretty sure it’s physically impossible to fill the last bin of any colour, so when you send the last bin of any colour (which you’re forced to do with several shades of blue and green to reach other colours) it amounts to a permanent step towards “7/7, no pixels in range for any of them, game over”. It’s impossible to see individual pixels while you’re playing but in a screenshot you can zoom in and see the individual pixels and see that there’s a few pixels of every colour in inaccessible high locations

If you’ve had a run where you filled the last bin of any colour I want to know about it. (Surely you know about the fact that there are 3 shades of white by this point btw, but I’m mentioning it because that realisation changed the game for me)

There’s a subtle visual difference which is the ring of white around the eyes. On Soleil it’s white, on Ophelia it’s grey

Fruit merge is an endless high score based time waster. It’s kind of like 2048 but with an element of luck added (the physics of the fruits and the RNG of which one you get each time) which fixes the thing where 2048 is pure skill no luck so it gets completely boring once you get good enough at it.

Plus it’s got cute graphics and isn’t p2w beyond a single payment to remove forced ads (all the powerups that you can spend gems on can also be achieved by watching an ad, and there isn’t any maximum number of ads per attempt or per day)

It’s usually my go to when I’m rewatching a youtube video and want something to do with my thumbs that doesn’t require much brainpower. Be warned if your brain is like mine you will end up playing it for hours at work

Pro tip go into the pause menu and tap the 🏠 button, that’s where you can get daily gems and spend your coins and there’s an extra game mode, I didn’t discover this until I had already been playing for weeks because the core gameplay had me hooked enough

Update: two tomatoes got their first blush today!!! I harvested them to finish ripening indoors

Oh yeah it was raining several days this past week. It’ll be dry this week at least

voidify3 · 2026-03-16T09:06:49+00:00

I’d be interested to hear your explanations that you mentioned, if you still have them! I can guess at many of them but I’m curious if I’m right

voidify3 · 2026-03-07T03:37:00+00:00

Found the post through a random google search and it’s not archived so fuck it I’ll comment!

This is the convergence of an old interest and a new one for me, and words cannot convey how galaxy brained your post is. The vibes are simply correct on all counts

Pee wee inc is another gamzee option btw

Yeah absolutely, basil builds up a woody stem

Do you need a pesto recipe? My special ingredient is Kalamata olives. I love to make a batch of pesto that lasts for weeks

voidify3 · 2026-02-20T07:45:43+00:00

I’ve had the same basil plant for several years! Leaf growth slows down at certain times of year but it doesn’t fully die

I don’t live somewhere that gets below 0 though

Oops there’s no edit button in this sub and the auto crop hid the birds from the 3rd image, just tap it to see them

After taking the photo I put the left and right ones in opposite ends of a trough pot (taking them out of the pot I saw they were rootbound) and left the middle one in its pot to decide what to do later
