  • Fun fact, there's around 2% of people that don't produce smell when they sweat. The smell comes from bacteria that eat a certain chemical in sweat, and the folks don't produce it, i.e. no bacteria or smell.

  • It might be more catharsis than unwinding, but dark souls/sekiro. I've been through them enough times that it's just comfortable.

  • I refreshed filter lists in ublock once, business as usual since then.

  • I've hate-watched all of it. It's not good, some things are wrenching departures the books, but there's also been parts of it they adapted well I think.

  • For trebuchets at least, they were only siege weapons, took a long time to both assemble and fire. Though I must concede they were better than melee weapons for knocking down walls.

  • I think the BEUC reaction came from the product itself not being carbon neutral. Apple paid for credits to "offset" the carbon released in production, but that carbon is still released in production. Also where they invested to get said credits is a timber plantation for making pulp, not a great carbon capture project.

    To return to simile, it's like labeling a product as non-toxic because the toxins only release after a few years.

  • Cried a lot, called my mates, ingested hideous cocktail of substances, then stayed in bed for a week ordering food in and watching the entirety of game of thrones.

  • Been quite enjoying Thymesia.

  • Giant, geode, gel, george, gerbil. Just sayin'.

  • From someone firmly against the proliferation of firearms, I think taking a gun on a camping trip where there might be bears is a pretty solid idea.

  • Polymer bonded to frying pans to make them non-stick.

  • Decilitres/centilitres are relatively common, but they're the only ones that come to mind.

  • If a game costs what I'm willing to pay for it, I buy it, if it doesn't, I check G2A, if still not, wishlist and wait for sale. They can do what they like with prices but I've got my pain limit.

    Apart from From Software stuff, I will buy all of those.

  • At least where I'm from, it's just more polite to let people get on with their day. Being randomly greeted by strangers, while not exactly an imposition, isn't exactly not an imposition either.
