Your numbers are growing! I’ve met one of you in the wild 10 years ago!

I 100% would not pair my phone to a public toilet just to flush it

Korean BBQ places are meant as the experience and the prep of the food beforehand. You don’t just go to one because “I want some lunch”, you go for the social aspect with a group, like going out to a bar vs drinking beer at home.

Now, that isn’t for everyone, and I get that. But it’s different than just a typical restaurante.

Something rubs the the wrong way about how the teacher presented that problem. Was the lesson supposed to be “don’t believe anything unless you can verify it yourself”? In his example, he was the unreliable source. I’m assuming he was infering the paper can also be an unreliable source? I’m hoping he went into the importance of checking multiple, credible sources to get a larger picture, rather than just leaving it at “you always might be lied to”. A blanket “don’t trust so-called authorities for facts” is how we end up with people questioning vaccines and flat earthers turning from satire to something troubling.

Windows doesn’t even cover everything you just said. The number of times Windows 10 broke my Bluetooth devices and I had to much around in registry to remove the device profile just to try to repair the device, is part of the reason I switched to Linux in the first place.

Yes, many distros need a little refining and smoothing for the general public, but only because people are so used to dealing with bullshit troubleshooting on Windows that they don’t see it as bullshit anymore.

The trilogy in question is:

Tomb Raider (2013), Rise of the Tomb Raider, and Shadow of the Tomb Raider

I’ve switched over to mostly wireless charging, but have to say I’m not completely convinced of it yet. I switched phones in part because my old phone’s battery started having issues and the charging port became loose. I want to prevent that happening on my new phone for as long as I can, so I’m using wireless charging for the most part.

Though wired charging is still so much faster and more efficient. If I really need a charge, or I’m in a hurry, I plug the phone in to charge. I just try to be in the habit of setting my phone on the charging pad when I get home from work.

I’m partial to the Corsair Scimitar. I’ve had to clean it a couple times because my cat’s fur gets stuck under the scroll wheel and makes the m3 button stick, but otherwise it has the perfect size and weight for me. The 12 side buttons are perfect for MMO play, it’s a little heavier (my preference), and lets me use a palm grip comfortably.

Though my eyes are on the Naga wireless v2 Pro for an upgrade, along with a Qi charging mousepad for the ultimate wireless experience!

Oh, wow, this is a treasure trove of info! Thank you!

Doesn’t look like a Lab instructor to me, more like a Collie instructor

I’ll check it out! I hadn’t thought of looking at some of the other crafting communities, but they would probably have good tips for different stages of the build!

I was thinking Meso, too, just thought Mezzy is cuter!

I have decent idea in my head of how it all looks, I just don’t have the best drawing skills to translate it to paper. The shaping I don’t mind modeling in 3d, but before I buy fur to pattern it I plan to try my paw at making a red sheet. You might have convinced me to give that a shot first, though! It would probably help having something to compare against for face shape and expression (thankfully I’ve only finished the base and about so far!

I’ve had several over the years, but never got official art or anything either, which makes it a little difficult figuring out patterns and colors ^.;; but my current fursona is a North American Raccoon. I was going to call him Mezzy for short, but literally last night found there is a streamer Mezzy that is a raccoon… So may be making some alterations… I’ve been using ‘Mesophar’ on different characters and accounts since the 2000s, but it’s a bit of a mouthful!
