Contrary to my usual tendencies, I was not a patient gamer with Survivor. I got it on PS5 the week it released, if I remember correctly. The performance issues were surprising (although actually still better on release than Fallen Order was), but other than that the game was an improvement for me in every way. Once a few patches came out improving stability, it completely superseded the original.

Edit: And I'm glad to hear it runs well enough on PC now; once I upgrade my GPU I may watch for a sale and double dip.

Even the people I know that are otherwise relatively tech savvy don't do this.

Not to say it's a good operating system, though.

“Humid conditions have their own sort of more perceptual limitations, that difficulty breathing, because it feels so claustrophobic,” Dr Cheng says.

“But in the dry environment, so far, the rate at which [their core temperature] is rising can be one-and-a-half to two times what we’re seeing with the more humid conditions.”

“It’s really for a lot of those nations, that don’t have a choice but to actually live in these conditions 24/7 … or for people in circumstances where air conditioning is not an option, or areas of the world where manual labour in the field is just sort of their way of life,” Dr Cheng says.

“A lot of those parts of the world that are most affected by it, are also the ones that have the least resources, I think, to deal with it.”

The researchers will keep testing the conditions on people until the end of the year.

But in the meantime, it’s given both the researchers, and Owen, an important glimpse into where the heat threshold of the human body lies.

The amount of tube TVs I saw on the side of to road in the US a few years ago was depressing, especially since I knew there was nothing I could do for them. They were all too large and I'm not confident enough to try any repairs on anything that potentially dangerous.

I'm glad you were able to save this one!

If Glass Animals still counts after "Heat Waves" blew up, I Love You So F***ing Much. Dreamland kinda had to grow on me, but 3 songs in I knew the newest one had surpassed it easily. Not sure where it ranks against their first two, though. I'm bad at choosing favorites.

The novel (written by Andrew Robinson) A Stitch in Time also confirms this physical attraction, if not specific examples of physical affection.

From the article, it sounds like cover shooter is an (unfortunately) small portion of what it will be. In fact, it is apparently trying to fit a whole slew of genres, which rarely works out.

Essentially, fewer is normally used for discrete numbers of things (e.g. "fewer apples", "fewer boats", or "fewer cops") while less is used for amounts (e.g. "less water", "less sand", or "less money").

As noted in the above link, there are exceptions. However, the exceptions listed are all with "than" or "or" added. Specifically, it's pointing put that while "fewer items" is correct, "3 items or less" is also considered correct.

In the case of the sign, it is referring to the specific number of officers in the city, so it should use "fewer". Does it matter? No, not really. Why did I bother saying anything? I got a chance to rep grammar and quote Stannis Baratheon at the same time.

Most of what I have printed with it the 0.2 mm nozzle is filament swatches with detailed info "engraved" into them. I tried to do a larger detailed piece with it, but the model wasn't print-ready and I made thin spaghetti instead.

That's exactly what I got, and it has worked really well so far. I haven't tried printing any minis yet (although I was thinking of trying one of FatDragon's next weekend), so thank you for the link.

Fewer.

The 50's - 70's movies are hilarious in a good way. I just finished them in my rewatch. Starting on the 80's this weekend.

I was wondering when I'd see a Godzilla movie here and on my feed. I vaguely remember watching this as a kid, but I'm doing a rewatch of all of the Toho Godzilla movies in release order and looking forward to this one in particular quite a lot.

Had to do a deep dive into this group for my father once and came to the conclusion that they diverged greatly from the type of music I enjoy once they added that Fred Durst sounding mf to the band permanently. Their general sound is fantastic, though.

I went with the A1 mini while it was (actually still is) $200 on their website. That's about as much as we spent on our sewing machine gathering dust, a bit more than our vinyl cutter doing the same, and around the same as I've invested so far in mini painting.

To be fair to me, I have so far kept up with the miniature painting.

I have a tendency to get into hobbies for a month or so and then drop them, too, so it being easy to set up and use should help me stick with it a bit more. The relatively low initial investment should soften the blow if I do drop it, too.

Just downloaded all of his sample models and bought another 5 on top of that. I wish that sand worm came with assembly instructions, but he's getting built one way or another.

I actually just found his channel a couple days ago. I haven't looked too much more into him, but his designs look great. Thank you for the recommendation!

They did. The nozzle actually arrived days before the printer, which was somewhat funny. I plan on trying it out a bit tomorrow.

Closest I have heard of is Greenville, and its surrounding area is definitely red.

This NBC link on the 2020 presidential election is somewhat surprising, though. Maybe the US Senate results, as they narrow that potential blue bubble down to either Richland county or tiny Allendale.
