Sweet, I guess I’m going to have to get a PC at some point. I actually played Riven for iPadOS recently and it was still fun, but the point and click is pretty tedious.
I’m not sure a remake willl ever match the magic of when I originally played in 1998, though. My laptop was so junky I played most of the game under a blanket because the screen was so dark, haha.
Ad Riven. I read all the novels, too!
It’s been a while, but I wanted to come back and thank you for this rec, because I really like the blue lizard sunscreen. I got the stick for my face and tube stuff for the rest of my body and I’m really pleased with them. These actually rub in very well and I’m not leaving white streaks on everything I touch.
I’m glad you’ve had better luck with Katchy than I did. I bought it because of a personal recommendation, but it didn’t really work long enough for me to determine if it was better than sticky traps.
Plus I’m the weirdo with a soft spot for moths, so I just generally leave them to fight it out with the spiders :). I cannot handle the fungus gnats flying up my nose, though. It doesn’t seem to matter if there is one fungus gnat or fifty - they all think there’s a party in my nostrils.
You mentioned pest control in the soil - have you tried mosquito bits? I ended up mixing some in with the soil for a Monstera and I also put a layer over the top and it does seem to make a difference. I do have to combine it with those unsightly yellow sticky traps, though. Between plants and the inverts I keep, my house is full of containers of damp dirt.
In case anyone is thinking about getting a katchy, you can read the reviews, but I give it a thumbs-down. I used it only a few times before fall and it worked okay, but when I pulled it out again in the spring I just get orange error lights and no response when I reached out to them.
Plaid button down, skinny jeans, and boat shoes. This means I have reached my final form where I dress exactly like my mother.
There are several spider communities set up on lemmy already, but I’d love to see them take off. Everybody tell your tarantula/spider-loving friends!
If you’re talking about speech, I think you’re talking about the “mid-Atlantic” accent, although that fell off earlier than 2000. It was a fake upper-class accent actors were trained in. I don’t know much more than that about it.
Laser eyes. I’d trim all my trees, maybe start a service.
In the early 2000s there were a couple of different forums I liked, so once a day I’d walk over to the library to use the internet and catch up. I’ve missed having that kind of healthy relationship with the internet, haha.
That is a very good testimonial for Coppertone!
I wish I could pin a comment.
This sounds like it would be a really good everyday option. I will look for it, thanks!
I think I have used this in the past. I don’t remember it very well, but I seem to remember liking it and I see that they have a mineral version that I can get locally, so thank you!
Thanks, I haven’t tried a stick before, but that does sound really appealing, especially for carrying around. I had a sunscreen leak in my bag with my phone ages ago. Amazingly, it still worked, but I spent the next few years with a very blotchy screen.
I created a playlist of the recommendations here and thought I might as well share: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9W-RMmS6ewK9p8OtJEKXtClpXEibXEIU
I also added this video on the Boeing 737 Max from MegaProjects, and a couple on a subject near and dear to my heart: Boy Bands of the 90s:
Well that is a very good point. There are several gyms in my neighborhood that I’ve been going to and I certainly don’t need anyone egging my house or worse, lol.
Logically I know you are right, and if it happened to my niece or nephew, I’d tell them “that’s life”. I think I’m just envisioning those Easter egg hunts where the big kids come in and get all the eggs :) And now that I say that I realize that I would not even be the big kid in the scenario where I go against an 8-year-old’s encyclopedic knowlege of pokemon, so I really have created a lot of drama in my mind for nothing…
Thank you, that clicked it for me! Somehow I was just not getting that the coins were not cumulative, so that makes sense now.
In fact, it sounds like regular turnover actually benefits everyone, since you don’t get extra coins for staying multiple days. I feel much better! I didn’t want to be the adult that showed up and ruined everyone’s fun, but I just looked up the average age of a Pokemon Go player and it looks like I’m not actually very likely to come across many children, haha.
Battlestar Galactica is the one I just can’t do. I didn’t watch it when it aired, but I borrowed the box set from someone around the time it wrapped up. I think I watched 3 very tense episodes, looked at how many remained, and bailed. If I ever try again I’ll pretend I’m watching them being broadcast and stick to one episode a week. I’m probably a wuss, but that show left me exhausted.
