0:07+ in your clip, the very first scene in the show when Vi and Powder saw their dead mother, totally sold me. Vi flashing through a half dozen expressions in a second with a more mature grief struggling to keep her shit together, and how Powder's demeanor crumpled inward in exactly the same...

"Fixed an issue where overlapping Fire Wall or Blaze missiles could cause increased damage" That sucks. "Fixed an issue where Tomb Vipers’ Poison Cloud attack was improperly dealing physical damage.; the poison clouds now deal proper poison damage" This does not suck. I like the new active...

As I understand it, the exclusivity of NFTs pertains to the ownership rights, not the thing itself. The NFT is your unique, uncopyable token certifying that you hold the rights to the NFT of the thing. Of course, that's just an asinine tautology.

There's an upgrade process for existing worlds where they try to smoothly transition between the old and new biome mapping, plus fill in under the existing world floor where you haven't already removed the bedrock. I haven't tried it myself. YouTube has plenty of guides. Make a backup, try it...

I don't think it's realistically possible to learn that lesson any other way than the hard way. (*rimshot*)

Minecraft 1.18, Caves and Cliffs pt 2, released yesterday. Some of the features (warder and the deep dark) got pushed to next year in 1.19, but the new world generation and expanded y-axis are cool.

Lol, wut?

My grandfather was an Episcopal bishop. A priest getting involved in family matters in any capacity other than passive support is a HUGE no-no (outside of abuse, obviously). I'd be fucking PISSED in TJT's shoes. Solidarity brofist to him for having a reasonable spouse, even if he should have...

I love how they all carefully line up their fingertips and then reach in an extra 6 inches and deliver a palm heel to the jaw instead of a slap. Edit: That guy at 3:05+ was no fucking joke. Jesus.

I thought you were at increased risk of fracture at the end of the rod due to the way that stresses concentrate and the fact that your bone has holes occupied by the screws. I dunno how much of a hurry I'd be in to kick hard shit if I were in Conor's shoes.

I was gonna say, by my experience the best way is to keep that shit in a jar for 15 years thinking that someday you'll sort it and then ultimately throw the whole thing out in a fit of disgust.

My son has a lot of fun homebrewing his own games in Scratch. (Scratch - Imagine, Program, Share)

Your prodcution set for your OnlyFans.

I was 1600ish as a kid but am probably far below that now. I'd be game if the format is convenient.

A limited number of positive relationships >>>> a large number of mixed toxic relationships. Not quite the same as your situation, but my mom died young (fuck cancer) and my dad underwent a serious personality change when he remarried. Despite being close when I was young we're now only cordial...

My son started down this path, so we severely rationed screen time and got him a kindle that I loaded up with books. He switched gears and reads literally 100 books a year now. It's also an obsession, but I figure a more healthy one for brain development.

Experimental maphacks are out. Use at your own risk. https://github.com/soarqin/D2RMH

D3 nailed the moment-to-moment gameplay. Essentially everything else was sub-par.

Humans are more loss averse than they are reward seeking. Risks with large downsides are only rational if you have no maximum loss threshold and infinite time horizons. A 10% down year as a result of speculation would result in leadership being fired immediately.

I'm getting my wife one for Christmas. She's either going to think it's great or I'll be murdered in my sleep. Wish me luck, gents!

Air fryers are just miniature convection ovens with fancier packaging. The small form factor creates significant limiations with heating elements and air circulation. This is the best-rated "air fryer" by Wirecutter:

If you don't need the money you should charge MORE, because then you aren't pricing out someone who does. This is actually a problem in the woodworking community. There are a large number of reasonably talented hobbyists (mostly middle+ class, since equipment is expensive) who sell work to fund...

The acceleration on the path of travel is very slow; the payload is brought up to speed over a period of 90 minutes or so. The issue is centripetal acceleration, which is high but sustained Phones break when dropped onto hard surfaces because of the concentration of stresses. As mentioned in...

The concept is hilarious so I did some napkin math. If you have a launcher with a 50-foot radius, in order to achieve escape velocity of 11.2 km/s (ignoring air resistance) your payload is going to experience centripital acceleration of about 840,000 G's. A solid metal payload would be a pancake...

Wind can carry leaves a long way. I had a bunch of oaks that were 50 feet away minimum and my roof was constantly covered.

No, no, no. The heavy/wet stuff means you need a bigger leaf blower, obviously.

I had a house with one of those hinged mesh covers. It was FAR easier just to clean the gutters a couple times a year than it was to maintain that bullshit.

My kids are even more confused than normal because my wife have both trained jiu jitsu for 10 years and they're used to seeing us work through moves that just look like a human pretzel. If/when they ever walk in on us they'll probably just wonder why we're practicing in the bedroom.

This is why my kids get to play video games on weekend mornings.

Ended up buying the saw. It had been owned only by this guy and his dad, and they had looked after it very carefully. Everything was in fantastic condition with only the smallest amount of superficial rust and dirt. New belt, blade, cooling blocks and wiring. Ran super smooth.

Anyone know much about vintage power tools? A guy near me is selling a ~1980 Delta Model 14 bandsaw in good condition for $375. Some quick research says that's a more or less fair price. Anyone use one of these?

One parenting maxim that has stuck with me over the years goes roughly, "Children are wild animals who need to be tamed." This seems broadly true. In total seriousness, I treat my kids like I do my dogs: Firm, clear, simple boundaries, consistent responsibilities, and plenty of food and love. It...

I think about this as well. I was on the receiving end of more physical bullying from my peers than I think occurs anywhere in my kids' school these days. I grew up in a pretty nice upper-middle class area, so I don't think it has much to do with community. Kids can be heinous shits in any...

A good series on import tools for the budget-conscious. Spend as you see fit.

My kids are 6 and 10 and both my wife and I work. On weekdays the kids are in an after school program until ~5:15. I think it's a fair compromise, as they have a lot of friends and enjoy their time there a lot (plus there's enough oversight so they get their homework done and don't have to do it...

Sellars has a very distinct system of workholding. I tried it for a bit and wasn't totally in love, but it obviously functions for him. I've got a better main vise now; maybe I should give some of these ideas another spin.
