Yep, it’s out! I’m still early in the game but it’s a lot of fun. They’ve added the ability to manipulate objects and attach them to things, which is a blast. I sent a Korok sliding along a railing while attached to a hook 😀
Got my guidebook on pre-order! I like the Zelda guidebooks. Even though I don’t always use them, I find them fun to have around.
They’ve also included quite a bit from Skyward Sword in the game, which is nice.
Mods aren’t officially supported but you can do some modifications on the Switch to make them work but I’m not too familiar with the process
Will try to get a thread up soon!
Started the last Potter book the other day and it’s pretty glum. I’ll finish it but it’s definitely not my favorite of the seven books
Sorry, been rather distracted lately working on the theme so I’ve been a bit slow
Yuck and yuck!
😛
Yeah, it’d be nice to get an automatic message when getting close to the inactivity limit but few sites do that in my experience. Really not sure why. There are times when you sign up for a site but stop visiting for a few years before deciding to take it up again. Would be nice to be able to keep the account active if you wish.
In the past, I’ve used Down Them all to grab videos for offline viewing but that was years ago and only supported on Firefox at the time. Was pretty handy as my connection would crap out regularly and I had trouble watching videos from sites like YouTube. Had a few custom filters set up to also grab wallpaper images without having to download each one manually. Was quite useful!
Good idea. It’s also possible to load extra fonts through CSS but there may be some hiccups with that approach.
We may also want to change some of the font colors now that we have a background image. Black on black is, well, a bit difficult to read 😛
Another idea would be to add some shading to the back of the text by setting up an alpha channel for the backgrounds but that may require a lot of work to make sure we catch everything. I’ll need to look at the selectors when I get the chance
😀
That first one sure is relaxing!
Sounds? Sounds!
And music!
Haven’t had much chance to listen to much the last several weeks as there’s been a lot going on but hopefully I can catch back up starting in a few days!
Excellent. This topic will be handy!
Ublock Origin is mostly for web browsers but it does have things like hosts files that may be handy. 🙂
As we now have this topic, here are some good software lists for finding something specific:

😀
They’re fun but they do have a few loose ends they don’t tie up, such as items getting misplaced and then inexplicably showing up again. 😛
Yep! The films feature music by John Williams. They’re also going to reboot the films in the form of a TV series. A lot of people aren’t thrilled with it but I welcome it! Perhaps it’ll help them become more accurate as they won’t need to cut out as much. The films cut out most of the sequences featuring the classes as they don’t have much bearing on the overall plotline but add a lot to the literary atmosphere but they should work better in a TV show format. I think a Potter MMO would go over quite well as the message in the books is predominantly one of friendship. There’s a lot they could do with an MMO format. Legacy does look like fun, though!
The William books look fun! Will see if I can get them on the e-reader!
The more the merrier! May start one up on Zelda when I get the new one installed 🙂
Huh, interesting. Not sure of a good way to design it. You definitely want it easy to trigger for an emergency but that can also lead to issues like that. :/
Yikes! Yeah, copying like that isn’t cool. It’s okay if it’s been heavily inspired but copying the exact structure and using similar phrasing is going a bit far. 🙁
Slumber Party Massacre was a riot! Worth every minute! 😀
Finally got my order in for the new Zelda. Going to take a while to download as the Switch doesn’t usually like to download stuff while you’re playing another game (it does sometimes but usually doesn’t) and I like to keep it unplugged when I’m not using it
We need a thread for music!
Hopefully they’ll get it worked on soon! There is an official plugin to add the previous post editor back into WordPress, maybe that will be helpful?
Caught Sleepaway Camp the other day and that was fun. Got Slumber Party Massacre on the docket for this weekend. It’s been on the watchlist for twenty years! 😛
😀
Yep! I really do enjoy picking up my comic books in the shop. Sometimes we start up on general conversation regarding various plot points or even some of the social groups I try to organize. 🙂
Sorry! Meant Action Comics. The login session had reset while I was typing it up so I had to rush and type it back in as close as I could remember the words. Seems I forgot to finish the title 😛
Batman 900/135 was a lot of fun! Not much plot but it was a delightful romp through Batman history with The Animated Series, Batman Beyond, and even Adam West making appearances and more!
Looks interesting, will add it to the list! 2015 would be recent for most of the stuff I watch. I’m a big fan of the 80s for some reason. 😛
Got Alan Partridge on the watchlist! May sneak in a viewing today or the weekend!
Been reading the Potter books again and they differ from the films in some important ways. For instance, in the fourth story during the first task, the film has Harry avoiding magic as he’s feeling self-conscious about how he doesn’t belong in the tournament. In the book, however, he doesn’t really care and just starts right off by summoning the broom. The distinction is important as it greatly changes his characterization!
It’s not a theme problem (switched to a different theme and no luck) and the bbPress docs aren’t much help. They say that the advanced post editor should be in both the dashboard and the forums but they may have been written for an older version of WordPress :/
Got it on the porch! 😀 I do need to clean it up a bit. It got a bit muddy while being moved on account of the weather 😛
It only shot them about a foot but we did have fun chasing them down the hill. Blowing bubbles is an idea! One thought I was playing with was a small audio recording and having it go bang periodically but that may not go over all that well 😛
Vintage ads can be fun! My dad used to record a lot of stuff in the 80s and it was quite fun to see what they were advertising decades later. Lots of M&M ads around the holidays! 😛
Have you thought about a print subscription? They are able to fulfill international subscriptions but do charge a slight premium. It worked pretty well for me with Batman even though the issues got a bit banged up at times during shipping. Only reason I cancelled the subscription and went local was due to them having trouble filling the subscriptions during the pandemic but I was still able to get them at the local shop without issue.
I may drop Action for Power Girl but we shall see!
I now have a cannon: https://www.1stdibs.com/furniture/building-garden/garden-ornaments/decorative-cast-iron-cannon-from-england/id-f_21567422/ 😀
My grandfather used to shoot tennis balls out of it using a fire cracker 😛
I really miss ads on TV for book releases. I found them quite handy! Now they’re playing ads for pop music albums instead 🙁
Ooh, Power Girl is getting a solo comic book series in September. Could be fun!
Sorry! Missed this!
Don’t have any relics over here but my mom has an ancient typewriter she picked up somewhere just cause she thought it was cool. It currently lives in her shed 😛
Done some looking and it looks like bbPress has that feature after all, just not from the editor in the forum view. The preview feature is in the admin center under the topics area, along with a more advanced editor. I didn’t see a plugin or setting to bring these features to the main area here, though, but there may be a tweak mentioned in the docs. Will look!
