@owashii@plush.city i am confused by the 10% of people who said what's bubble wrap -F

re: subtoot +, paws 

@mossweaver @tabitha@chitter.xyz the hypothetical deerbold is pretty cute though

re: subtoot +, paws 

@tabitha@chitter.xyz unless they have (musical sting) *snout-antlers*

re: subtoot +, paws 

@tabitha@chitter.xyz Sounds likely to cause paw pain if they don't blunt their antlers with something

it always bugs me that people say "love triangle" to mean the second thing. that's not a triangle though??

re: ffxiv 

@manifold this was all endgame stuff when the game came out and they weren't sure if they'd be making an expansion so they wanted to make sure there was plenty to do after you beat the game

re: ffxiv 

@manifold oh yeah wait until the next step in that quest though

@pup_hime at least if the file extension is a usual video or audio extension. if it's .so or .cpp or .zip then you just know it's confusing

@relee majora's mask 3d made major changes to all the boss fights that made them less unique and interesting, on top of generally making everything in the game brighter, including where it was intentionally too dark to really see

oot 3d didn't touch the bosses, at least, but it also did the brightness thing

@Tathar we have strong feelings about soldering irons
-F

@Tathar be glad it was recalled, cheapo soldering irons are *awful*

unfortunately, with soldeering irons you don't get anything reaching "passable" until around the $100 price point, and "good" will run you $1000

@Tathar I dunno what they're called, they're easy enough to find at a hardware store though

most any type of pliers would work, except perhaps needlenose pliers

@kotep my favorite is the hitchhiker's guide sierra adventure game, where one of the items in your inventory at the start of the game is "no tea"

@Tathar crescent wrench is another (possibly old-fashioned) word for an adjustable wrench. Channel locks are a type of adjustable pliers that look like this

they're not really what you'd need for this
-F

@Tathar you absolutely don't need a torque screwdriver, that's for precision work where you need a screw to be tightened to an exact torque

Torx is a type of screwdriver head, like Philips or flathead. It's the star-shaped ones you've probably seen around from time to time. T10 is just one of the sizes
