There will be national elections within 2 months. After 16 years, this is the first time there is a significant chance to boot Putin’s buttplug. The other contestant isn’t all glitter and marshmallows, either, but he is (or claims to be) definitely pro EU. Just have a little more patience, because things might change anyway.

Haha, thanks, it’s still just perfect to stir my tea with.

Unless it’s a joke, I can definitely see myself leaving my designated teaspoon in a glass of cafiza/Puly Caff overnight. Not in the fridge, though 🤔.

It might be just subjective, but I have played D3 (which D4 is more akin to) and D2, and I got bored rather early. D2 had some great mechanics, but in certain aspects it’s also stupidly rough around the edges when it comes to game design.

Most unique items give counterintuitive and sometimes straight high-on-pot bonuses. It screams that they were designed in the early stages of the game when developers honestly thought a sorceress can just run around and bonk enemies in the head with a staff (which is fair at rather low levels, but by the time you find these uniques… it’s like hopping off of a motorboat onto a floating wooden chair and paddling with a fork).

Before D2R, a bunch of builds were meh at best, weak more often. While classes don’t necessarily have to be all viable by focusing on one specific branch, but it’s kind of disappointing when you realise you can’t just make a curse necromancer.

There are also a bunch of skills that are one point wonders. Again, it’s not a requirement for all skills to scale well with points, but it just feels poorly designed for me when there are so many skills that are not worth spending on them. Critical hit? Why not, add 6-7 points into it (might not be the right skill/number, just an example). But you know what? We also allow you to add another 13-14 points with a negligible difference, because why not. All skills can get 20 points, so no exceptions.

The synergies in LOD were a nice addition and a creative fix for some builds, but some synergies still didn’t make sense. D2R also made some improvements, but if you want to build a Spearzon, you’ll still find yourself paddling with the aforementioned fork here and there.

I have never played D4, but I would still choose D2 over D3. But I feel like the player base is mostly the ones who played it back when it came out, and felt nostalgic about it. As players who grew up with better polished games, I think the younger generation would go with something that feels less like economy class.

While some others might think otherwise (and who am I to condemn someone I don’t even know personally), as another determined Magyar (ehh, I mean the guy) voter, I sense an overwhelmingly strong smell of narcissism, demagogy and vulnerability in him. After all, he used to be a faithful Fidesz party member up until he lost access to the honeypot.

At the moment, he is still our only hope and beacon of light before the elections in April, because the rest of the candidates are either complete underdogs or (even more) awful politicians, and after almost 16 years, he is the first one who has an actual chance to break Fidesz’s spell. We need to vote him, it’s a no-brainer.

But, unfortunately, he is rather far from being the impeccable Bicycle Repair Man some would like to see him as.

My phone is a personal computer.

This is giving me Cypher-eating-steak-in-the-Matrix vibes.

I bet you don’t have a cool X-wing!

Wow, interesting! I wonder what use the “+1 to Town Portal” bit has. A whopping additional one extra space in your inventory, for not having to store a scroll (or two in case of a tome)?

Fantastic!

So what do you like about it the most? Or is there anything that was below expectations?

Yeah, season 8 of helium is just chef’s kiss.

BMW drivers not signaling should get their car taken away.

BUT they want you to provide a photo ID, provide access to your location 24/7, and let them read your thoughts because they want to keep homeland security tight.

But a wide open pedo ring mail chain somehow eludes them.

Haha, yeah, meals containing cheese. Including (rather great) toasties.

About 5-6 years ago I did the same thing. I’m still a shameless omnivore, but I managed to reduce my meat consumption significantly. Around 2024 (so several years after I started) I had to get my blood analyzed. The only thing they found was my lack of vitamin D, but I live in a country with minimal suboptimal* sun exposure, so it’s a thing here anyway.

Note that I still eat meat, but way less often than before. I started with a maximum of two meaty days per week (no cap on meat those days), but not as a fixed schedule: I just allowed myself when I really craved it, but not more than 2 days a week. Can be 1 or 0.

Fast forward to the end of 2023, when I started thinking about when I last had meat, and I couldn’t remember. It wasn’t quite hard, to be honest: there are awesome veggie meals around, and I still eat dairy and eggs whenever.

I’m a helpless cheese/dairy addict, trying to cut off as much meat as possible. Unfortunately, a few years ago my body had decided not to deal with that anymore, and I became slightly lactose intolerant. Now, I can either go vegan and end up eating shittons of legumes, or I can keep eating cheese (my workplace provides free food, but basically everything has cheese in it). I’m trying my best to keep them alive, but it’s not easy.

a11y lmao

Alright, am I the only one who (if only for a millisecond) had serious Lola Bunny vibes?

You look just like your parents!
