One-handed games? in c/[email protected]

For the friend who enjoys BG3, you can play Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous pretty much entirely with the mouse. The base game is 90% off on steam right now too.

Pathfinder has a massive learning curve compared to DnD 5e though, but that just means you can get an extra 50 hours of entertainment out of the game before you start the story, just by figuring out all the options when creating your character lol

Edit: whoops, seems like the steam spring sale just ended. The game is still absolutely worth it at full price though

That graph is wrong though. It should say distance -> is it a long distance? -> yes -> hours (at least if you're driving)

what’s a pun in your language, the english translation, and do you think it makes sense in english or has an english equivalent? in c/[email protected]

I've always used this version, since the verb is commonly used in modern English unlike buffalo:

Police police police Police police police Police police.

That expands to "the police from Police, Poland will police the police from Police, Poland, who in turn also police the police from Police, Poland" or something like that.

You know what I've always thought was a scam? Magic erasers. in c/[email protected]

I spent a couple bucks on one of the Mr Clean ones this time, just cause they were on the shelf at the superstore across the street from my apartment. Now that I know they work I'll definitely get the cheap ones though

You know what I've always thought was a scam? Magic erasers. (lemm.ee)
 

I'm currently living in my first apartment, and I'll be moving out soon. I've got tons of scuffs on the walls from stuff like installing my furniture while moving in and bringing my bike in and out of my apartment. I tried cleaning them with soap and water, but they weren't budging at all, so I sighed and resigned myself to losing my deposit. I mentioned it off hand to my dad recently, and he told me to try using a magic eraser. I was a little skeptical, but I went out and got one anyway. I was amazed, literally one swipe of the eraser was able to get rid of the smaller marks instantly. My walls have never looked better!

I had always assumed magic erasers were just sponges with some soap already inside them, maybe with a scotchbrite pad attached. But I looked it up, and no, the "eraser" in the name isn't metaphorical. They work exactly the same as pencil erasers. They're super fine plastic sponges, and when you rub them on the wall they break down into tiny sharp plastic fibres which act as an abrasive. I found that super interesting to learn, and now I have another tool in my toolbox.

Hi, appreciate what you're doing here!

I wouldn't say no to any of these games (listed in order of preference):

  • Kerbal Space Program
  • Hollow Knight
  • Jackbox Party Pack 4

These are all pretty popular, so no worries if someone else already took all of those.

Danke für deine netten Wörter! Das war sehr hilfreich.

Während wir über Aussprachen sprechen, wie würde ein Deutschsprecher das Wort "Teenager" aussprechen? Würde man es aussprechen, wie es auf Englisch gesprochen wird (/tineɪd͡ʒəɹ/, in meinem Akzent)? Oder würde man die deutschen Ausspracheregeln befolgen (vielleicht /teːnagɐ/)? Ich weiß, dass ich es googeln kann, aber ich denke, es ist besser, wenn möglich, ein Deutschsprecher zu fragen.

(Bitte sag mir, falls meine Kommentar Fehler hat. Ich lerne Deutsch und habe die Kommentar ohne Übersetzer geschrieben.)

Als ich ein Teenager war, habe ich ein lustige Playstation Username zu machen versucht. Meine Freunde haben das Wort "moist" gehasst, also wollte ich es in meinem neuen Username nutzen. Ich habe gedacht, wie ich meine Freunde meinen Username noch mehr hassen machen kann, und habe das Wort "grandpa" erinnert. Ich habe "moist" und "grandpa" kombiniert, und meinen Username war geboren. Ich konnte nicht lachen stoppen, als meine Freunde haben zum ersten Mal mein Name gesehen und zurückgeschreckt sind. Seitdem nutze ich er für alle meine Konten.

Meine Freunde spielen online mit mir nicht mehr. Ich wundere warum?

X equals negative B

Plus or minus the square root

Of B squared minus 4AC
