Which part of a PB&J is the meat, and which is the condiment?
  • The peanut butter, with it's thicker texture and protein is obviously the meat, and the jelly, with it's more liquidy texture and lack of nutrition is the condiment

    Looks like Valve is introducing a new review system to filter out "unhelpful" reviews
  • Indeed, sometimes I really appreciate a heads up of if I can save in the middle of gameplay or if I have to complete a whole run before it saves progress, things like that are not deal breakers but it can definitely affect how I play a game

    What is this device, found in manga exhibition?
  • I assume then the followup question would be why they'd be using a timer while drawing. If it's at a convention I could then assume they might do small commissions for people and use the timer to ensure they draw them quickly and don't spend too much time on each drawing.

    TIL that in the early days of Fed-Ex, there was one time the company couldn't afford the fuel bill for their planes, so the founder took the company's last $5,000 and went to Las Vegas and won $27,000
  • I never hold anything against FedEx employees because I talk with the drivers often as they deliver to my workplace and they run their drivers so fucking hard, not a single driver has said they like the job. It pays them well, but the trucks are always bad quality and breaking down, and the drivers barely have time to take breaks and eat while getting done at a good time most days.

    I always feel bad for them.

    TIL George Clooney was asked to play himself in a sketch for the Movie 43 (the gag was that Clooney is bad at picking up women), and Clooney replied "No fucking way."
  • The other night my wife suggested we watch this and I'd vaguely heard of it, but not its reputation, so we did watch it since an anthology would be fun! We made it maybe 40% through until I realized it was so bad that I had to stop. They just don't know when a joke stops being funny, and most of the skits are barely funny to begin with.

    If they cut most of those skits down by probably half, the movie would be awkwardly short, but it would at least flow better, and you'd be able to move onto something else if you weren't liking the current skit much, but as it is, it's a mediocre slog that has a bafflingly star studded cast.

    It's just far too juvenile and long in the tooth, and I have nothing against juvenile humor, but man, I just couldn't get much out of it.

    August Recommendations Thread: What are you playing?
  • I got into Balatro finally, and holy fuck, it really is great. I wanted a turn based roguelike since I realized I didn't have many of those, and I knew it'd be good, but it's hard to find something I don't like about the game.

    It looks good, the interface is good, the music is an awesome ever changing single chill song, it's turn based so you can think about your decisions, but if your build is strong you can play pretty quick too. There are tons of build options and unlocks.

    There is a nice balance between playing hands and altering your build between rounds, I like that the money economy is low in number, similar to darkest dungeon and its low number damage stats even single digits matter. Learning the game and starting runs you begin to establish a build that you can add synergy to incredibly quickly. I just struggle to find anything bad to say about it.

    Best android app suggestions?
  • Maybe, PowerAmp was the first one I tried after I got off the dedicated MP3 player lifestyle, so coming from iPod classics or cheaper Fiio and Sansa players I was seriously lacking for features like that.

    All I know is that PowerAmp does almost everything I could want it to and I never wanted for much more or needed to try other options after I tried it the first time

  • Seconding PowerAmp. Tons of features, something I loved about Spotify that PowerAmp has, you can queue songs and do things like "play next" so that it inserts songs into your queue.

    You can also see what song is going to play next, though I still deeply desire a mobile version of the Winamp feature where you can see the entire list of how the songs are shuffled and everything that's coming up

  • What with the recent development in the supreme courts I'm feeling a necessity to do what I can with the time left, politically.

    However, aside from the most rudimentary basic terms I am basically completely ignorant to all politics on a state and federal level, and while I'd love to sit here and self loathe for my idiocy of not learning before it was important I need to start catching up and figuring out what I should be voting on and why.

    Of course I'm deathly afraid that indiscriminately googling will lead to me learning biased and compromised knowledge from sites that I don't even know are biased, ending up with a skewed and inaccurate understanding.

    While I know I could still be led astray by you guys, I figured it better to ask somewhere like here than to just wander off into the internet, so can anybody help me and people like me to start getting equipped?

    The following is a paste of the "account linking FAQ they've posted on their discord containing time-frames for when the change kicks in. Particularly funny is the subtle "make an account in a different country" of point #3:

    "Here are the questions and answers that we have received regarding mandatory account linking so far. We will update this thread with any additional info if we receive it!

    **1. What’s the benefit of having a PlayStation Network Account? I don’t have a PlayStation. ** Account linking provides a consistent and reliable means of reporting, moderation, actioning and appeal for ALL Helldivers 2 players. We take online safety seriously and this is our main way to protect players from griefing and abuse: by enabling the banning and suspension of players that engage in that type of behaviour.

    By linking accounts, you have the benefit of our extensive support team infrastructure for reporting these bad actors (and our appeals process if you are banned/suspended). This all helps us to make Helldivers 2 a safer and more enjoyable space for everyone.

    **2. Why do I need a PlayStation Network account now? I didn’t when the game launched on Steam. ** Due to technical issues at the launch of HELLDIVERS™ 2, account linking was temporarily made optional. Now that the issue has been resolved, this grace period is expiring and we are reinstating the requirement to link accounts.

    **3. I am currently in a country or territory that is not PSN-enabled. Can I still sign in and link an account? ** PSN requires users to register in their country or territory of residence. Individuals who are traveling, working, or studying abroad may create an account in a country or territory different from the one in which they are currently located.

    **4. When is this happening? And how do I connect my PSN account to my Steam account? ** Current players on Steam: Current players on Steam will start to see the mandatory login from May 30th and will be required to have linked a Steam and PlayStation Network account by June 4th. New players on Steam: You will begin to see the account linking option appear when booting up Helldivers 2 from May 6th. To connect your accounts follow the prompts on screen. You will be required to link a Steam and PlayStation Network account from May 6th.

    **5. How will my data for account creation be used? Is it safe? ** However you choose to play, we strive to make gaming welcoming, secure, and inclusive for everyone. We’ve created easy-to-use tools to help you take control of who you interact with, how we use your personal information, and how it is displayed and shared.

    You can find more information on our privacy and safety features here: https://www.playstation.com/en-gb/privacy-security-safety/

    For more details about how we use your personal information, check the “Information Sharing and Transfers” section of our Privacy Policy: https://www.playstation.com/en-gb/legal/privacy-policy/

    **6. I already have Helldivers 2 on PS5 and Steam, do I have to make a new account for the Steam version? ** No, you do not need to make a new PlayStation Network account. You can connect your current PlayStation Network account to your Steam account.

    **7. If I own Helldivers 2 on PS5 and Steam, will my progress be shared between platforms? ** No, progress on the PS5 and Steam version of Helldivers 2 remains separate at this time.

    **8. How do I sign up for a PlayStation Network account? ** You can create an account online via your phone/PC browser before you launch Helldivers 2, or you can create an account online when prompted to upon launching Helldivers 2.
