fierce spell @casta@awoo.space

@noiob so much yes

@typhlosion bonchon, but they have to have some kinda indie boba tea ice cream crepe place adjacent, ensuring the survival of all

@kimpegasus Wait, Match is in one of the Apple One bundles? That suddenly made it more worthwhile for me.

@typhlosion my sad cowboy emoji is pastede on yay

@typhlosion they do not know the classics

@noiob they even kept the design language through to the Razer Phone 2, but reinforced the build quality and gave it a really sweet display panel. Aesthetic held up and still does. honestly that phone series deserved so much better

@noiob I can’t afford one and would be dubious about the first generation, but I’ve been waiting for the promise of Microsoft Courier to come true for years now https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Courier

also watching the hinge is like porn

@noiob Canada is even weirder because you had metric, imperial, and US measurement uptake, British and American cookbooks depending on the publisher, and an awkward mingling of Canadian/US home ec, food shows, tool inventory...

@noiob they have scales sometimes, but AFAICT that’s only if you’re either being strict about portion sizes for various reasons or gotten really, really into breadmaking.

Old home economics curricula really drove volume over weight, and that just stuck

@kd@yiff.life @cozykaffe@snouts.online Don’t forget devotionals, annotations, layout and design, all the niche framing and packaging which isn’t actually a bible but has a bible inside of it.

Translations are the big thing, though, yeah. Christian publishing houses will underwrite anything from tweaks or paraphrases to whole new editions of a translation, or occasionally go from the ground up. That way, they don’t just own the text, they have laser-targeted, demographically appropriate versions for in-house use.

@typhlosion this is me and my Japanese skills all over

@kamiten Ocean State is an excellent resource for this! And a Target flat sheet from the Threshold section is minimum 300 tc and like $10 fwiw

summer aaauuuuugh ;_____;

@kamiten oh geez, that seems excessive. IDK what shops you have available to you, but if you have access to a regional job lot chain you might be able to get your hands on that grade of cotton for less than usual. If you use a filter pocket you probably don’t need to go hardcore like that

some folks are like “use flannel!!” and I’m all “SUMMER IS COMING”

@kamiten no problem! Glad to pool knowledge. Looks like there’s only so high a thread count you want before breathing becomes an issue, which is augh and probably individual

@kamiten (probably you can use this as a rough guide to other cotton fabrics, if not an exact one)

@kamiten spoonflower lists theirs but you have to dig a bit for it — their mask patterns have suggested fabrics with the counts on page one https://spoonflower-downloads.s3.amazonaws.com/Face+Mask+Instructions.pdf

@Jo @FimbulK@mastodon.social oh why am I not surprised. (Tubi should only be used by people who know how to minimize bullshit or who just don’t care, so yeah) I would have assumed also something to do with the Fox acquisition.

I wish English-language Sailor Moon outside US/CA wasn’t such a fraught exercise, and hope this ends up like Sailor Moon Crystal where Toei just quietly put its own version up (on Crunchyroll that time) and Viz Media quietly ignored that

@Jo @FimbulK@mastodon.social count on it. Sailor Moon rights are kind of bizarre on top of Toei’s usual weirdness with legacy properties like this. (Worth checking to see if Tubi UK got the subbed version. I think the dub is tied to physical media and occasional promotions. It would be nice to be wrong)
