They're a fey witch who changes how they look to manipulate and prank and befuddle and seduce others. Their magic is dark, illusory, spooky, and nature based.
Some thoughts:
I Want To Be Evil - Eartha Kitt

Curveballs welcome, no wrong answers

I'm 130hrs in but I'm still pre-Moonrise Towers, currently wandering around a poisonous bog of some sort, so no spoilers please
I'm finding the game repetitive and I think it's my own fault? Am I taking the game way too slowly by following every narrative thread and opening every crate etc?
Should I skip some narrative beats?
Should I change my team's subclasses to mix up combat?
Any advice appreciated
Loved the tomb aspects of Tomb Raider and the more puzzle'y parts of Uncharted, any other favourites in the genre regardless of age?
I'm on pc and switch
I'm not very tech savvy so please bear with me.
I bought a premade in 2018 and I've only updated the graphics card and ram since then. I'm using a 55" Samsung TV as a monitor. It's really starting to get sluggish/finicky. Gaming example: it can run BGate3 on medium but starts having issues any higher.
EDIT for more info
It's hooked up to my TV because I use it for everything from simple browsing, YouTube, streaming TV/movies, to gaming. For games the most taxing is something like BG3, but I can't think of anything else in terms of taxing programmes.
I don't think I'd have a use for it if I kept it. Even if I kept the hard drive I'd have to research How and What To Save To Which Drive On Your PC, but if that's what y'all recommend then I can.
I'm not against investing a few grand if it's the right money spent at the right time, if that makes sense? My worry about changing individual parts is the standard worries about installation and compatibility, but if it's too soon to be changing the whole rig then I can get over that
Noob here
I have a wooden sheet of plywood that acts as a protective topper for an outdoor bath tub (don't ask). I'm looking for a way to add folding legs to the underside that will rest in the bath tub when the topper is on, and fold out to form a table sitting alongside the bathtub while it's in use
I just noticed that when I look at a game which I know nothing about and Steam says "Mostly Positive" I tend to immediately get suspicious
Whenever I enter a discord it's like walking in halfway through ten conversations happening all at once.
Unless you go all-in and follow everything being said like you would a personal/private discord, how do you navigate them?
E.g I can search for "cleric" and try and parse the latest conversations but it's janky
Here are some things I've been asked. Any other questions you have, just pop them down below.
Here are some:
Should we offer help?:
Personally I really appreciate it. Strangers have really helped me out of a jam several times.
Only becomes an issue when people grab your handles without asking. Or when you tell them "No thank you" and they insist, assuming that you're just being polite/don't want to be a bother.
Is it bad that I think they look kinda fun?:
Look, zooming down a totally flat and even slope feels like flying, it's dope. So in that particular instance you're not wrong. It's just the rest of the time that it's shit.
Why is it hard? You're sitting down and you have wheels!:
Because it's like rowing a boat moving the oars in the wrong direction. Our bodies are good at pulling and rubbish at pushing, that's why we row backwards.
Pavement/sidewalk camber a.k.a slope. Next time you're out walking look at the pavement. It has an often imperceptible slope so rainwater can flow to the gutter. Even the sliiightest slope means wheelchairs glide towards the traffic with each push, so you have to push with the traffic-side arm 3 or 4 times more than the outer arm in order to course correct and roll straight. For the length of any street you're pushing your body weight + chair weight + jacket/bag weight mainly with one shoulder rotator cuff. Ow.
Why are you going against the flow of pedestrians?:
Probably camber. The angle is more acute on the traffic-side of the pavement, and shallower on the outer/upper side of the pavement. So if the flow of pedestrians is walking towards us on the outer side of the pavement it looks like we're going against the flow. Really, we know that if we're on the inner edge we're one hand slip away from rolling into traffic.
Why are you barreling down the centre of the pavement, pick a side:
Again, camber. Sometimes the pavement slopes imperceptibly on both sides so we're going down the middle hump like a tightrope walker.
Why do you go so fast?
Momentum is everything. Anytime you're fighting momentum to go slowly at a "walking pace", or restarting a wheelchair from stationary-to-motion because you've paused to let people pass, or had to slow to dodge people/obstructions, you're burning a huge amount of energy and joint strain. Minimising pushes is key to avoiding rotator cuff injuries and general strain
I saw a wheelchair user stand, what's the number of the Disability Police?:
Yes, many people use a wheelchair because they're unable to mobilise without one. Others are "ambulatory users". They can technically walk. Gasp!
How are you meant to live if you can only walk short distances such as a few metres without collapsing? Or are unstable being bipedal? etc. Are you meant to not use a wheelchair and be housebound because they're "only for people who cannot walk"?
We have sloped curbs now, what more do you want:?
Seems nuts but if a curb ramp isn't flush by even an inch you have to do a wheelie to get up it because our front wheels need to be tiiiny, often only 3 or 4 inches. A lot of disabled people do not have the strength or coordination or control to be busting wheelies. This means we have to roll in the street. Where we keep the traffic.
Why do you have a rug on your lap like my grandmother?
You're in a park on a brisk breezy autumn day. What's warmer, sitting on a bench or walking? Even the slightest, gentlest, exercise makes our bodies churn out heat like a furnace.
So, I guess, something chill enough not to be an assault on the senses
What kind of caveats/specifics should you double check are covered? Is general home contents and theft enough?
No one is on Lemmy because they like shitty corps so I need your help
I'm at a loss. Increasingly whenever I order New on eBay or wherever, the order gets fulfilled by Amazon.
When I complain to the site I bought it from they shrug.
I'm regularly paying more for items and still funding an undeniably awful company
Bonus points:
What are some interesting takes/interpretations/ reflavours that you've seen or want to try?
