to be fair, hydraulic brakes with power steering dead would be a tall order to stop a fucking 3000 kg rust bucket too

I had a tiny ford focus power steering fail on a muddy, but flat road and it was pretty scary

I’m going as a cockroach

Already made the wings and antennas, only missing the extra legs but that will go quick

This reminds me of Ursula Le Guin’s “bag theory”: that the first tool humans developed, was not a weapon which is usually taught, like a spear, but rather, a bag, to carry things: for example for berries we picked. A nice reframe from the violent status quo.

No, Romanian. The majority of Romani people here are however from Romania, hence the connection

I dated a Romanian woman who hated the Romani people, she said they made her ashamed to speak the same language. We didn’t really work out in the end.

Another Romanian woman whom I met a few times, upon hearing this went “lol why were you together with a racist”. Fair question, honestly. We didn’t work out either, but for different reasons.

Why tf do ppl care, who even has notifications on for others starting games. You message me about it, I block your ass

The solution is to only join servers with a strict 18+ policy and instant ban if anybody even implies they are underage. Even better, a strict 25+ policy

It does say Kerala though

Yeah, but I am starting to suspect I’m a bad driver

I had once gone into a ditch (spinned out on an icy road) and landed in deep snow, also no injuries. This felt similar, no sudden crash, just a dangerous loss of control. I also kinda liked my car (as much as I can like a car, that is), and it sucks that I need to get a new one now.

The woman whose car I hit said she was in a few as well, also not her fault. Bad luck indeed. I apologized profusely, and she said that she knows it was obviously not on purpose and that shit happens.

If you mean the definite form, then no, Polish doesn’t have it. Learning English as a kid was difficult because no teacher could explain it to me in an understandable way.

I’ve been learning a little Romanian lately though and it is there. Romanian is such a weird language. The vocabulary is like a mixture of five other languages, the grammar has gendered words and conjugations, yet it has a strict word order, unlike Polish that thanks to the complex grammar allows for very free reordering.

From now on I’m calling my girlfriend “my microscopic mite”

Chemistry has never been my strong suit. But… is metal alloys having lower melting points than the constituent metals (I think that is true at least?) related to the same mechanic?

No, I just put a little water and the “marinade” (soy, liquid smoke and spices) in the dry granulate then knead it vigorously until the liquids are absorbed and it has the consistency of wet dough. The granulate is one of the cheaper kinds, ordered it online but don’t remember exactly where.

I kinda freehand them everytime. But I first take an onion, chop it finely and fry it up a bit. Then I put in together with this cheap dried soy mince which I slightly hydrate and marinate in soy sauce, liquid smoke and a huge amount of different spices (cumin, cloves, herbs, nutmeg, etc, I forget all of it). I mix it with my hands thoroughmy, and also put a spoon of potato starch to make it hold together better, then make the balls and fry them.

I usually cook without oil, but these things need a little oil in the pan to be best

Do you think it would work with no oil at all?

It was fun, I liked it a lot. I played the old demo (I think it was the Griffin temple?) and liked it, I also wrote some feedback back then. The graphics and music are very cool and cozy, I like the variety of environments, and the combat is pretty easy but feels nice and cool. I like the bosses (both here and in the old demo) not having a huge variety of movesets, this might be “simple” but well done.

The only comment I have is the platforming (again…), I feel timing the jumps gets a bit weird sometimes and I keep falling in. Might be a skill issue on my part though.

Also, I played on Linux, and it ran flawlessly.
