Granted. The wish spell has never existed, so you can’t use it.

Isn’t that killing the thief rogue subclass’s use magic device ability?
- Comment on 13 skeletons 1 day ago:
Hmm, that works, but only for spells in your class list. That won’t allow you to cast legend lore as a wizard, for instance

I hope we can reach the point where everything is convenient to switch to whatever you preference/physical controller is in every game.
Maybe one day.
- Comment on Eksbawks 1 day ago:
I like their button layout better though.
- Comment on 13 skeletons 1 day ago:
Ah, that’s the risky use of Wish though. It comes with a chance of losing the spell forever.
- Comment on Eksbawks 1 day ago:
Xbox has influenced PC gaming too much for that.
- Comment on 13 skeletons 1 day ago:
Wish, but for emulating other spells. Literally anything I want, of 8th level or lower, as if it was already prepared? So handy.

Ah, I see. A pity.
- Comment on 8BitDo Pro 3 Bluetooth announced with swappable magnetic ABXY 5 days ago:
I loved my Switch 1 pro controller until the L/R/ZL/ZR buttons started losing reliability. They wouldn’t register unless I pressed really hard, or would cut when I was trying to hold them pressed. I imagine the new one has similar issues.
But wait your say the Switch 2 one has analog triggers now? Ugh. I hate analog triggers.
- Comment on 8BitDo Pro 3 Bluetooth announced with swappable magnetic ABXY 5 days ago:
What are those L2/R2 buttons like when you switch their mode?
Do they resemble what we had on PS2 (feels like just a button)?
If so, I’m really interested. Damn gradual triggers do NOT work well with most games where you want precision for those button presses.

Looks like a pretty low tax rate to me.

You mean, beep when they’re finished?
Many microwaves have a semi-hidden feature to mute all sounds. Usually involves long-pressing one of the number buttons.

I’d say it’s probably averaged from bra sizes sold by some company.

Have you looked into becoming a nurse practitioner? You sound like you might feel more fulfilled with more medical knowledge and a job in more of an expert role.

Oh I could likely see the difference. But if there’s a significant impact on battery life, I would probably be just fine with the lower resolution.
It would suck if the touchscreen option were only available with a 4K resolution because of that.
- Comment on Framework (2nd Gen) Event is live on February 25th - Framework holding new product launch in 2 weeks 5 months ago:
Touchscreen? Great!
UHD though? In such a small form factor, it sounds like a needless battery drain. Or are there use cases I’m missing?
- Comment on eggs in japan 5 months ago:
Probably not. They contained a lot of air at that point. But yeah … If it doesn’t look, taste or smell rotten, I’m usually not worried by food.
But then again, I’m vegetarian, so I avoid most non-obvious risks by that alone.
- Comment on Anon has a busy day 5 months ago:
Frickin’ mobile games. Got sucked into giving KonoSuba: Fantastic Days nearly an hour of my time every day for a few months. I even gave them nearly a hundred dollars. And it felt like WORK, because I didn’t want to be inefficient and miss quest rewards.
Never again.
- Comment on eggs in japan 5 months ago:
Btw I took a look at your comment and if it helps, washed eggs are good basically forever too. I never throw them away. I’ve eaten eggs that had been expired for 6 months, and while they were a little dried up (kinda dense; the white had shrunk), they were otherwise totally fine.
You know how they say you know there’s a methane or propane leak because of the smell of rotten eggs… I’ve never smelled rotten eggs. Only propane. Eggs refuse to rot.
- Comment on eggs in japan 5 months ago:
I’m not American, but in a lot of American cooking videos I watch, the host will go like “NEVER eat raw egg” or “I’m tasting a small amount here but it’s a calculated risk I’m taking and you may not want to”.
- Comment on eggs in japan 5 months ago:
You’re missing something!
- Comment on eggs in japan 5 months ago:
I was convinced Japan also washed their eggs. I’m confused.
Also I’m curious about why Americans are really squeamish about people eating any egg products that haven’t been fully sterilized by cooking, while others generally aren’t scared of it, even if they’re in a country that washes eggs just like the US.
In the US, people don’t even taste their cake batter to check the amount of sugar before cooking it; in Canada, a summer isn’t whole until you’ve made strawberry mousse (ingredients: strawberry, egg whites, sugar; eaten raw). Perplexing. Is it riskier in the US, or is the risk equally low everywhere but Americans are really paranoid?

What the fuck
- Comment on Snap, Crackle, Transubstantiate 5 months ago:
They’re pretty addictive, but solely because of the texture. Crispy yet melty. The taste is almost non-existent though.
You can buy bags of communion wafer scraps for cheap here. Well, they used to be actual scraps, but nowadays you get full uncut wafer rectangles in the bag so I think they just produce them on purpose.

Have they ever heard of Teams calls. I swear managers are so out of touch it’s not funny

My company is a horrible work environment. Anytime I go in person, I work half as fast and get tired faster.
Noise, distractions, bad ergonomics, meh hardware…
