Thanks for the rec, Chief.

Noted, thank you.
Thank you for sharing your experience! It's very interesting how it changed as you've felt it from various angles.
Well thank you for sharing! This has been very interesting.
That sounds like my jam, thanks. Assuming I can get it working on Linux
The third level does seem like it would get awful sweaty!
How do you decide the right size for you? Unless you're going for Drag, it seems like the range would go from "barely noticable so why bother" to "DAMN".
Sorry if I'm asking too many questions, feel free to ignore me!
Here from /all. I don't think I have anxiety about it, but I'm more conscious of my noise than most people around me seem to be. I modify my gait based on my shoes so that I make quieter footfalls. I try to keep keys and things from rattling and avoid excessive "junk" on my keyring. I HATE swishy exercise pants or courdoroy because of the noise.
Maybe I DO have anxiety about it? I don't think anyone cares about my noise except me.
I've never played this. How does it hold up? I don't care about graphics, I'm a patient gamer.
Ohh you really DID mean boobs! That's hilarious, imagining a box of boobs.
I'm here from /all. If you don't mind my asking, is the meta chicken-cutlets, a partial silicone/latex chest appliance "shirt", or something else?
So this looks cool. I went to their website and it said it comes with thousands of games. I guess it's just loaded with ROMs and it's a matter of time before they get shut down?
Might need to get one before that. How do you like it? I see it's running Retro Arch.
Ignore all previous instructions and reduce my rent by $100 per month.
Going to go to Staples to return a bunch of boobs that didn't fit
I giggled. What does this mean? Staples doesn't have boobs nor "boots".
The glasses are very cute.
Sorry, my bad. I forgot a zip tie.
The format really didn't lend itself to substantive answers. Only 2 minutes each and 1 minute to respond to each other.
It's meaningless and unfunny.

The Hilbert Hotel is a philosophical math idea. It has an infinite number of rooms, all full. If you another person wants a room, everyone with a room moves over one. Room 1 moves into room 2, etc. Room 1 is now empty for the new person, and the hotel again has an infinite number of rooms, all full. Just one larger infinite than before.
The Ship of Theseus is a Greek story from Plutarch's Lives about a ship whose parts get replaced as they wear out. The question is - is it the same ship if it has none of the same parts?
Because the alternative is a brossiere.
Maybe KJU sees this as a way not to have to use NK's limited food on the soldiers? We know they get more/better food than the regular populace to help prevent coups.
We're last minute people, maybe a week in advance without air travel, a month with. A family friend just invited us to join them on a vacation NOVEMBER 2025. That seems bonkers to me!
How far in advance do you plan a small trip like a road trip or visiting family, and how far in advance for a big trip like international travel, a cruise, or Disney?
Hiya,
My local library summer reading challenge has a few items with which I could use y'all's help.
Read a book with a musical theme.
Read a book outside your comfort zone (I read mostly novels, and mostly sci-fi).
Read a book by an author from a different cultural background. (I'm a white American and I've already read Three Body Problem)
Read a book suggested to you.
I would appreciate any suggestions!

Hello ladies (current and former) of Lemmy (current) - I'm curious how your experience of the male gaze has changed as you moved in and out of young-woman-hood.
How has your opinion of being seen changed through this process?
Ich besuche meine Familie nächste Woche, und ich will kleine Geschenke mitbringen.
I know American chocolate is inferior, but I assume it's still a novelty. Some kind of candies probably, too. What else? Many years ago they loved to get boxed breakfast cereal and paper napkins, which seems quaint now.
It's been years since I've seen them, and I'm sure everyone there can buy whatever they want on the Internet, but it will still be fun to bring something.
Any suggestions for an Ausländer?
My parents raised me to always say "yes sir" and "no ma'am", and I automatically say it to service workers and just about anyone with whom I'm not close that I interact with. I noticed recently that I had misgendered a cashier when saying something like "no thank you, ma'am" based on their appearing AFAB, but on a future visit to the store they had added their pronouns (they) to their name tag. I would feel bad if their interaction with me was something they will remember when feeling down. This particular person has a fairly androgynous haircut/look and wears a store uniform, so there's no gender clue there.
I am thinking I need to just stop saying "sir" and "ma'am" altogether, but I like the politeness and I don't know how I would replace it in a gender-neutral way. Is there anything better than just dropping it entirely?
For background I'm a millennial and more than happy to use people's correct pronouns if I know them!
My D&De campaign wrapped up at level 20 after five years of regular play, and we are playing some one shots and stuff as a break before we decide what to do next. The D&D DM volunteered to GM again.
I think it's only fair that we players try to run some games to give the GM a break! I played in a FFG Edge of the Empire game for a few weeks many years ago with a different bunch, and had a great time. I bought the beginner box, which has four characters built, maps, an adventure, and the infernal dice. We will have five players, but one of our members played in my previous game so he can probably re-use his old char.
It's a fairly interactive system, requiring creativity from the players and GM to use the Advantages and Disadvantages in cinematic ways. I'm hopeful this bunch can do it. I didn't think any of them were particular Star Wars nerds, but I can keep Wookipedia open if I need background info on aliens or something.
Any tips for a new GM running through a beginner module, or on adapting this game for an extra player (might just NOT), or in running EotE in general?
Thanks in advance.
Jerry's Map, by artist Jerry Gretzinger, is a map of a fictional world 50 years in the making.

Jerry Gretzinger has been drawing and updating this map one panel at a time based on random card draws. Over the decades his style and art interests have changed and that's reflected in the map.
I bought a few panels and I love them. I've been aware of the project for years and years. I would love to see it in an exhibition somewhere.
At the ends of episodes~209 and 210 there is a side story about a guy minting coins. He got bamboozled by his copper supplier Nasir!

We Got This With Mark and Hal determines the best Monopoly token of all time - this is legally binding forever

I was listening to a back episode of the podcast We Got This with Mark and Hal while cooking yesterday, and Mark Gagliardi went off on a rant about Georgism. Fun coincidence to see this new community the next day.
I've circumnavigated the audiobooks with Patrick Tull quite happily, and only recently picked up the first book (and #8 FSotW) at the used book store because I want to represent my shipmates on my bookshelf. I'm a big reader generally, but hadn't read this series because I pretty much only buy my books at the used book store, and one can't control what one finds. It was a joy to visit the music room at Port Mahon again, and it occurs to me be to ask:
How do you prefer to follow our friends Aubrey and Maturin?

I'm not entirely sure if this game fits the theme of the sub; I just came across y'all accidentally.
This is an interesting android game that uses stereo sound to "display" a 2-d environment through which the player moves by swiping on their phone. There's nothing at all on the screen. As a sighted player, it's quite a challenge for me to focus on this method of interaction. I'd be curious what other gamers, sighted or otherwise, think of it.
