While we’re talking about tower defence, I really recommend the Gemcraft series! IMO probably the best tower defence games out there. Chasing Shadows and Frostborn Wrath are both on Steam, and I highly recommend them.

can confirm that it’s a constant sine wave, at least for me.

i blew myself up by accident a month ago, and while my left ear has fully recovered my right one wasn’t so lucky. lost all hearing above like 10kHz (which isnt really noticeable, especially with my left ear still being good on frequencies), and i also now have some very minor tinnitus there. ironically if i had to guesstimate the frequency of my tinnitus it would be around 12 kHz, which is past my hearing range, though it can change briefly because of external stimuli.

god-tier post, this goes hard

holy shit! how many terabytes is that?

In fact, shooting him in the head would center-mass the kid. Not a good way to go.

it really does seem like it, though at least it doesn’t get worse on multi-language setups, which i thought would happen but thankfully didn’t (at least for me)

Soon the cadburies will be cheaper than actual eggs

It honestly makes me wonder why my symptoms went away, but yours persist…

I’ve talked to a few people (like 3 or 4 i think) with the syndrome in the past, and it behaved differently for each person I spoke to, whether it’s the symptoms, the cause, or, as in our case, whether it goes away or not.

It’s a pretty unresearched syndrome, though the Wikipedia page for it has way more info than when I last checked.

EDIT: Another thing I’m curious about is that the symptoms also stopped causing panic attacks for me. I haven’t had the eyelid thing for a while, since it’s way easier for me to do that when I’m extremely tired, but the last time that happened I didn’t get an attack at all. If anything, I tried to actually focus on what I was perceiving, I tried to make something out. Again, very weird how it develops differently for every person.

Yeah, it used to trigger panic attacks in me too. That’s fascinating!

Everything feels the wrong size. Like my hands feel tiny, or my teeth feel enormous. The bed feels like it’s the size of an ocean, or the phone I’m using to distract myself feels like a matchbook in my hands

Sounds a lot like the Alice in Wonderland syndrome.

I used to have it when I was little, and my symptoms were very similar to yours, but mine kind of went away on their own. When I close my eyes and focus, though, I can still make myself feel like the dark side of my eyelids is getting impossibly far away from me, which is very weird.

Do you still get these symptoms?

the overflow property in HTML controls what happens in a given element when its contents extend past the element’s boundaries, in other words when the contents overflow.

Overflow has 4 possible values (AFAIK): visible, scroll, auto, and hidden, where:

visible does not clip the content and lets it extend past the parent element,

scroll clips the content and adds a scrollbar so that the user can see the rest of the content,

auto adds a scrollbar only when necessary,

and hidden clips the content that extends past the parent and doesn’t add a scrollbar.

Some paywalled/loginwalled sites load all of the article content regardless of whether the wall is up or not, so when a paywall pops up you can just go into the Inspect tool (usually CTRL+SHIFT+I) and delete the element containing the paywall, and/or, as some_random_nick said, change the article container’s overflow property from hidden to scroll, letting you see all of the content

Thanks! Gonna give it a watch

I’ve always wondered, which movie was this frame from?

Subtitles are usually stored in .srt

“ROCK AND STONE!”

YES

Yup, in 2015, more or less, from what I remember reading the Wikipedia page. Got superceded by bunsenlabs, like notthebees said.

2 days ago my friend found an old SATA hard drive and gave it to me to check what’s on it, and me, not having a disk station or anything, and against all better judgment, I just swapped the disk in my laptop for my friend’s, and instead of my laptop being fried it turned out the disk was running something called Crunchbang Linux
