Yeah, having that “he/she/they” toggle and calling sex “body type 1 and 2” instead of male/female sure is political. You know when it became political? When people saw them and went “REEEEEEEEEEEEE” because they’re bigoted dumbfucks.
Not an expert, I use a whetstone with quite a bit of water and aim to “cut the water”: the edge pushes water along the stone if it’s properly (or at least usably) angled. Once I have the angle in, I adjust my grip, or support the backside of the knife with my thumb, or whatever else lets me keep that angle consistent.
Bear in mind the angle might “change” on you as you sharpen a curved blade - or that’s my shitty technique. I try to keep thinking about “the normal” or what’s perpendicular to the edge where it’s touching the stone.
Also, tip courtesy of Ethan Chlebowski on Youtube. You can use a permanent marker and color in the edge of the blade. Dye left on the edge means you’re off and its distance from the… uh… edge of the edge will tell you if you’re too shallow or too steep.
I can usually get my knives sharp enough that I haven’t bothered with the marker trick. It’s clever, though.
Would’ve been perfect if Arthas or whoever spread dangerous misinformation.
It’s so vague it’s hard to really say. Generally, what seems easy at first is often actually just lazy or poorly thought out. Putting in the effort to do things properly can save you a lot of headaches down the road.
I’ve been watching ZFG (OoT streamer) for a while. Lately he’s only been playing Tears of the Kingdom, which… I don’t like or care about, much. Looks like he’s actually going to do runs of it, so it might be a while.
Someone else already mentioned Joshua Weissman, “comedian” cook who refuses to realize he can’t sing and the “papa” thing is… cringe. Channel was much better when he didn’t try so hard to be funny. Cooking stuff itself is still fine though, he does know his stuff.
The Jerma vs STAR videos almost gave me a hernia once upon a time.
Well, that’s… certainly a thing that I’ve seen now.
I feel you, I burned out heavily on maths at least twice while studying engineering. Took me years, and a bunch of watching math videos while high, to rekindle some interest.
I was really hoping I’d enjoy Baldur’s Gate 3. Apparently D&D is something I’m virtually allergic to, I hated the dice, controls, camera, dice, aesthetics at the start, FOMO and the wrong kind of “genre savvy” fucked me up about content getting locked out - basically I immediately hated all of it enough to put me off.
Shame, because it does seem like a seriously awesome game, just not for me.
Look out, it’s armed. I don’t trust the robot, either.
Fair enough, I was just consciously avoiding “communist” because, I don’t even know. Anything is socialist in American terms and I’m just confused, it seemed like “yur commie” would be slightly too on the nose. Not that I care too much when the context is someone’s spamming game threads.
Why don’t you go make a socialist city builder game, then? The means of production are right there for the seizing, my friend, go learn game dev right now.
Sounds clickbaity as fuck.
Well, it does have rhythm.
Not to vote on their stuff, no - but definitely, when I see a take that’s shitty/stupid/weird enough, I’ll have a peek to see if they’re taking the piss, or trolling, or something.
Lost… lemming?
Did you tell him?
“Indicators of relevance” is fine in theory, but that’s (allegedly) how it was supposed to work on Reddit too, and… it really didn’t. It will turn into agree/disagree for a significant amount of people who either don’t know or care how voting was intended to work.
Downvoting on its own is fine, but if you’re thinking Reddit then I’d agree. That’s because Reddit actively hides shit based on it, though - and also because Reddit is an intensely toxic shithole, of course.
A significant proportion of them are that day, yeah.
