  • Thank you! These are the healthy ones, but I managed to somehow murder more than a few too :(

    Sometimes I'll have two of the same family cacti, using the same soil, standing literally next to each other, getting the same watering routine and all, and one will grow super strong and healthy, while the other will just die for no discernible reason :/

  • Yup, there's some color correction, de-hazing and slight sharpening going on, but that's about it. I didn't want to do too much, so they don't look artificial or AI- made, so this is just the first try. I might read up on plant photography a bit more to understand what to adjust instead of blindly stumbling around photo editing software like I'm doing now :)

  • This is absolutely insane. I'm in Japan, and with stagnating wages and significant cost of living increases, this will price out a large part of the population. Hell, right after the PS5 was released here shady resellers were pushing it for this price, and now Sony is matching it... I'd laugh, but it's just too damn sad.

  • Too bad there are no Tossel or Buggel engines though...

  • Oh cool! I'll need to look into that, thanks! Wonder if there's a way to convert an existing Windows parition into this somehow, installed software and all, because that would be perfect...

  • BMW, soon: "Warning - you are almost out of your free braking credits for this month! Purchase additional BMW Premium Gems that can be exchanget for braking credits at the rate of 13.7 to 1 and into acceleration credits at the rate of 12.864 to 1 now, or activate the Braking Unlimited subscription to receive unlimited braking credits and a chance to win 4 free hours of air conditioning!"

  • I still play it, even though the console version was basically abandoned ages ago and we didn't even get the offline mode and seasonal journey PC players got. It's still really fun regardless and is recommend it to anyone who likes that style of game.

  • Right, but you have to boot into Windows first to even get the update in the first place...

  • So, no booting into Windows until this is fixed then? Fine by me. Hell, might actually make me uninstall it completely and free some disk space...

  • I'm not from the US or in the US, but even as an impartial external observer with no horse in the game I do enjoy the recent republican panicked whining...

  • Same here. I was fine with W10, but the recent W11 shenanigans were the last straw, and I decided to give Linux Mint a try. Couldn't be happier - everything is so much more snappy now. And since I game on consoles only and my crappy PC was never a gaming machine to begin with, I have zero issues - wish I switched sooner!

  • I bought Atlas Fallen like a week ago, that's why it's coming to Game Pass, no need to thank me.

    Jokes aside though, after the recent major update it really is pretty fun!

  • He was seizing right at them and they were afraid for their lives, they really had no other choice! Also, he didn't stop when they told him to, which is an egregious crime in the US it seems - when a cop tells you to do something you do it, or risk getting tazed and/or shot, even if the order is to turn green, fly, crawl with your arms in the air or stop having a grand mal seizure...

  • That's a great way to put it - the movie really is accessible, isn't it? A lot of Easter eggs for people familiar with D&D, but it's still quite enjoyable even when you know nothing about it.

  • Same - watched it a month or so ago and actually enjoyed it more than I expected. My wife was watching with me, and even though she doesn't even know what D&D is, she quite liked it too!

    We would both definitely watch a sequel, if it's ever made.

  • Straight from a store, and they were watering them with tap water, that's what I do too. Fortunately I live in Tokyo, so tap water is pretty high quality here :)

  • I'll need to check if something similar is available where I live - thanks a lot for the info!

  • It's baffling, isn't it? How can a company just unilaterally decide to not be subject to this or that law, and the courts just... go with it? It's the same level of idiocy exhibited by sovereign citizens, but somehow, when you're a corporation they actually let you do it...

  • I have an idea Elon - how about we bomb your house with you in it? I'm sure after a while some other people will build another house there and move in, so it's all good, right?
