I got into the Age of Wonders franchise through a burned disc by our upstairs neighbour as a child. I have bought every game (except planetfall) in that franchise by now. I'd probably never have tried that game without said burned disc
Never mind she today said she doesn't want to be close anymore
Had a hiking "vacation" with some coworkers this weekend and one of them who I'm in my eyes good friends with, kind of distanced herself from me during that. Today she had her bright genuine smile again when she saw me so I'm now happy again. I sometimes get into my own head thinking everyone hates me for no reason so it's nice to see that's not the case. I also know that she's like me with having a very limited social battery so i should've known but brain be braining
Yeah i guess the first point is really important and we're too quick to forget that.
Technically i had phone service but i had to be very careful with it as we were close to the Swiss border and they charge a lot of roaming costs (colleague lost 50€ thanks to that despite trying to stay on top of turning off roaming in those risks areas) but yeah i could've really done a better job at using translation services
I had a power bank with me because we were camping in tents without power so i had that covered.
The 4th point is a tricky one for me. I struggle a lot with social interactions and if i already sat down at a place only to find out they didn't have vegan stuff it'd make my anxiousness rise to get up and leave especially considering it'd also split the group most likely.
I had some backup snacks to keep me afloat but those wouldn't help me come down from the bad hike.
Point 6 is really important i guess and I'll try.
Thanks for the advice
That vegan passport sounds really useful. I guess i could in prep for whenever i travel next research the words in that language to describe veganism at least. And yeah I'll absolutely get happy cow. Sounds like an amazing app
I've had cold chilli sin carne one day actually but every food to be consumed at base camp would need to be carried up 150m height worth of stairs which was the first thing that completely destroyed me that vacation
Oh thanks for that. That would've been very helpful. I'll install it in case of future travels.
Hey y'all. Idk if this is the community for this because it seems mostly link posts, but here goes:
How do you go about finding food in a country you don't speak the language of? I've just came back from an Italy hiking "vacation" that caused me two meltdowns in just 4 days. It was a really rough hike and I've been the weakest of the group and didn't make it to the top. I don't want to go into details but i had a really rough time and food usually is my comfort zone helping me reset from the shitty stuff.
Now the problem was that i don't speak Italian and we went to a bunch of cool looking places only to see the menu was not translated and didn't have vegan or not labels on it so i caused everyone to not go there. So instead of comfort, food search was more anxiety inducing and I'd like to avoid that in the future. It's been the first time for me to visit a foreign country since going vegan and I was shocked by the lack of consideration for vegans in a lot of places.
So yeah how do you prep for tours where you don't know which part of which town you're on every day?
You only use expletives that are already in your brain as words to use. You don't just slip into using the n word
Und auch nicht über los und keine 4000 Mark
Sometimes dangerous. I once moved when someone at the station smoked close to me, and he took it as offense and on the train he sat across the aisle from me and stared at me the whole ride until he luckily got off 2 or 3 stations earlier than me. I just kept pretending to read in my ebook reader while watching out of the corner of my eye and plotting my escape should he get off at the same station as me.
Nioh 2 is only of 50% but it's my favourite game. It has the bonfire + bloodstain mechanics but the gameplay is a lot more ninja gaiden than souls. You don't need to pay nioh 1 to play 2. I actually never played 1 despite 2 being my favourite because i couldn't be bothered to be forced into the role of Geraldo of Nippon
Tried it for a bit but it's very repetitive. There's only about 7 enemies that just get re-skinned for different areas. The bosses are ok. The movement feels like DkS2
I really appreciate the Devs for putting a lot of work into optimizing their game instead of just saying the PC needs to be more powerful. They put out a number of updates during early access solely focused on making the game run smooth af.
So n komisches Rechteck mit nem Drehknopf drauf, mit dem man Pong spielen konnte am einem sehr alten Gerät von meinem Vater
So i can only tell my experience. I didn't know i was autistic for the longest time. I've always been odd but i was masking most of the time and could suppress my sensory issues and had a lot of coping mechanisms to deal with them. Then my cat died and my world got destroyed. My mask was shattered and i can no longer keep it up for long whereas i had it up like 50% of the time before that. I stopped trying to mask at work. Noise has gotten real bad for me where before i was kinda dissociated enough to not have it that present.
Considering the world is getting more and more stressful in general, i imagine a lot of people that masked before are cracking. Also the obvious point of more information being available so a lot more people seek out a diagnosis. I'm also like 70 percent sure my mom is neuro spicy in some way and she developed OCD to keep order in her life out of necessity. Everything that gets untidy has to be cleaned asap, the latest at the end of the day. Her work desk however is chaos. She gets really anxious when i for example leave the living room blanket on the couch she immediately goes and folds it up.
It gets even more interesting: to interfere in the double slit experiment, the light has to take a longer path for some points and light is really good at finding the shortest path. And, since you can extend the double slit experiment to infinite slits with infinitely thin blockers between the slits, you can leave away the slits entirely and still have a valid version of that experiment and get interference. It's just, that most interference is destructive.
Veritasium had a very interesting video about that recently and my extrapolation of this is that there is neither a collapse of wave functions nor multiple parallel universes.
My intuition says that the wave function is there after being "observed". There is no multiple possible outcomes, just very visible ones and a lot of destructive interfered ones.
However what i just wrote is not science but me extrapolating from science so don't take it for anything more than that. It somehow causes quantum physics to make intuitive sense for me so i like it. Nothing more than that.
There's a difference between oh cool "i love that band, do you like it too?" and "name 5 songs" where the implication is that you assume they can't and are fake
What? We finally got rid of the patriarchy? Why didn't anyone tell me so i could celebrate?
I'm currently wondering what to do if my favourite recipes go offline or if my mom's special traditional dish where i have the recipe in written form gets lost. Do you have a (preferably FOSS) app to store such recipes? I'm currently trying Cooky which is FOSS but is difficult to use for cooking: you can't really group cooking steps well and when cooking a recipe you can only view one step at a time unless you're editing the recipe. I like however that you can tag the dishes so it's easier to find specific stuff like vegan or spicy dishes.
