I'm making up a batch of bbq sauce and jerky for presents, so I'm making some extra and sending it your way.


Seriously man, I am in awe. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Guy almost causes National emergency trying to calibrate one of the gifts.

Comrade Blyatlov posted:

So as I mentioned the meter hasn't been calibrated since 1982. I just got off the phone to the National Radiation Laboratory to see if I could arrange to have it calibrated and had a very amusing conversation with them.
When I called I said look it's picked up some readings and I was hoping to get it calibrated as I'm not sure it's accurate. The nice lady transferred me to another gentleman who asked me for the details of what the readings were and where I was when I noticed them, and I mentioned the meter hadn't been calibrated since 1982 so I wasn't sure if it was accurate.
The guy let out an audible sigh of relief and said 'ok, you've been transferred through to the emergency line, I thought we might have a major incident on our hands.'
Arc Light, you forever loving win every prize for genuinely scaring the poor scientists ahahahahahahhahahahahahahahhahahah

TLOU was ok.

The ending was stupid AF though and I’ll die on that hill.

I’m playing through TLOU2 and it’s ok I guess.

I’ve been playing path of exile lately and my biggest issue is that nothing really feels permanent. Like your characters are kinda meant to be dumped at the end of the season so you can start a fresh one.

The gameplay is fun and I’ve been playing it a lot on the steam deck too.

Jazerus posted:

yeah the biggest issue with the game imo is that unless you're absolutely obsessed it's not really reasonable to "finish" a character within the span of a league. always gonna be a few steps away from the peak unless you're very lucky. and since a pretty large chunk of players only play the first month of a league, the economy falls to poo poo for 2/3rds of the season.

the league structure is pretty core to how the game works at this point but i would still play it occasionally if i could hop onto old characters and do the new content, but i can't so i don't

Yeah I’m hoping Diablo 4 scratches that itch a little better tbh.

thinkin' of getting a young dog that will ideally chill with our two year old cat, but every time i ask pet island for advice about cats, i get drowned out by some dude who can't remember to clean the cat's litterbox asking why his entire life smells like cat piss. so i'm asking here:

any tips for introducing a young dog to a youngish indoor-only cat, so that they can coexist and the experience isn't lovely and traumatic for either?

or is this just a fool's errand?

So we got a puppy to go with our two cats and while it was kinda a pain in the rear end it’s turned out ok.

Firstly you definitely need to make sure to give the cat a place where it can go that the dog can’t. We got a baby gate and walled off the upstairs so the cats could be away from the dog when they wanted.

We also made it very clear to the dog not to approach the cats. They can come up to her but she rarely goes up to them. At this point she just walks right by them. She also knows the cats are in at the top of the pecking order.

Also keep in mind that you’ll have to figure out where you are going to keep the cat food and water because the dog will definitely eat that poo poo lol. We have a feeding station that the dog can’t get to.

Just make sure the cat has its own safe space and you’ll be fine. You definitely have to keep a close eye on things for a while though depending on the dog / breed/ age of the dog.

It’s not impossible! It can be a lot of work or you could get hella lucky and get a dog that doesn’t give a poo poo about the cat.
