For future reference, does anyone know of a good way to control OBS (i.e. start/stop etc) from a different computer than the one broadcasting? Our apartment has a weird layout that makes it Kind Of Annoying to do otherwise.

Last time, we purified Garmr, found the Solflower, and then cleaned up some of the remaining overworld dungeons to grab some parts for the Gun del Sol, but now it's time to go visit Sol City, the flying City of the Sun, and figure out what Sabata has waiting for us there.

any time a doubled ⟨c⟩ or ⟨k⟩ appears in standard english, it's either: a loanword (e.g. gnocci), a compound (e.g. bookkeeper), or two ⟨c⟩s pronounced differently (e.g. accept, pronounced /æksεpt/)

(accolade is perhaps the one exception, though it is also a loanword (though from the 17th century, so it's been here for a while and might not count anymore))

mar -> marred
sob -> sobbed

is there something wrong with our graphics drivers if playing a youtube video is using a significant amount of the 3D engine but none of the video decode/processing at all?

whose idea was finitude anyway, i want to submit a complaint

pick one

just learned about a really interesting game called timespinner but a physical copy costs twice as much as a digital copy now because they only did one run of the switch version

limited production runs are bad :<

i'm sure someone has done this joke before but: met-roid

we kinda want to try sichuan pepper

what does it taste like

if your main school of magic in Master of Magic (a seminal, and still very good, fantasy 4X from the 90s) is Nature, you get this little snake friend on all your notifications

steam doesn't seem to know what it's doing

i feel like there's a problem with this installer

the line in question was "No, don't take the door, it needs to stay there to keep the outside out."

today, someone compared my style of... does it count as humor? to that of bill wurtz and i think that is a very good compliment

The fade to black, the universal symbol of "we couldn't be bothered to animate this".
