Eh, not really. We have only very recently cracked the code to getting him to eat any veggies aside from cucumber. Before that he would usually just eat meat, fish, potatoes and rice. Anything green would lead to drama. We showed him Popeye and how the spinach made him strong. Now, anytime he eats his veg he gets to “pick me up” and throw me on the couch. It’s been three weeks and he still likes doing it so, fingers crossed! 😄

How old is yours? Mine is nearly 4 and has figured it out. It helped that, when we went on vacation, the supermarket sold complete chicken with the head and feet still attached, and cow tongues and pork feet and things. We even pointed out a pig brain for him to look at. It also may have helped that is favourite food is snails, mussles, squid and small fish with their heads attached (fried anchovies, he calls them eye fishies). All pretty recognisable on a plate!

Star Wars: Rise of Skywalker. I went in with very low expectations and it still managed to disappoint so badly that it makes me angry. I hate how the Palpatine plot point retroactively ruins the entire original trilogy.

I have one good scene: Pierce Brosnan and Rene Russo in The Thomas Crown Affair.

Wait, what, it’s possible to have 8 dwarf lobbies? That is so cool!

The big advantage of the robot over human pals is that you can send items directly to your ship. In coop you need to carry it. The biggest downside is that it uses soooo much ammo when acting as a ship gunner. I’m flying the small ship and put on the lance railgun. The long reload time ensures that the bot can’t waste all my ammo.

Same for me! I just unlocked the cargo dispatcher and the tier 2 building mats to build them, so I wiped my entire spaghetti factory and I’m rebuilding in a nice bus layout, transporting in the remote ores using the dispatchers. I like that there’s more combat in the game. I was a tad disappointed that, when I entered a cave for the first time carrying a lot of guns and ammo, I only found some plants and crystals. I was prepping for a big fight with bugs hiding from the rupture! 😄

It really depends on your workflow. I use a tiling extension and 9 fixed workspaces. I have no need for dash-to-dock. I reassign a bunch of hotkeys to make working with 9 workspaces easier, but the rest is all Gnome defaults and it works just fine for me.

Thanks for the tip! I haven’t tried soy meat yet. I usually use 50% lentils when I want to stretch ground beef

I got a cupboard full of basic staple ingredients and a freezer full of meat, veg and leftovers. I think I can last a week, if not two, if I really have to. And that’s for a family of three.

This is my go-to “can’t be arsed to cook properly” dish. But I add peperoncino as well. Like a nice fiery rawit chilli.

Per another commenter (and the article):

When the battery dies, the glasses continue to function as a traditional pair of single-vision specs, ensuring the wearer is never left in the dark or have safety compromised such as when driving or operating machinery.

Are these the auto-focus ones? If so, that’s surprisingly slim… If there are no other components.

Ohhh, nice. Do you have an aquarium?

When all her friends and family see that image, she is definitely involved. And it’s definitely abuse.

Same. I will never spend a cent there. Occasionally I rebuy one of the giveway games on Steam just so I can get a DLC.

Wikipedia to the rescue! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-barreled_cannon

Yeah, I don’t like being shoved in an intro cinematic without being able to turn on subtitles.

Depends on the game. I play Jump Space that occasionally does this (not all buttons, but some). It is to ensure that you deal with enough enemies so they won’t interrupt you while holding/charging the button. If you’re interrupted, you need to start over. It ensures you don’t simply sprint past everything while hitting the buttons.

Someone on Lemmy gifted me “Beyond the Edge of Owlsgard”, an old school point & click adventure. I’ve been having a lot of fun with it. The voice acting is great!

I’m also almost half way through “Black Mesa” a.k.a. the Half-life 1 fan remaster. It’s pretty good, but a bit unintuitive at times.

There’s also a not-patient game I’m playing: “StarRupture” released in early access a few days ago. It’s made by the developers of “Green Hell” which I really liked. It’s like Satisfactory with much more combat and base defense. I’m only a few hours in bur so far I like it!
