Firefox on desktop and mobile. I use Photon frontend on my Piefed instance and Alexandrite on my Lemmy one.

I rarely consume alcohol nowadays (maybe 1-2x a year), but I’ll keep that in mind.

I’ve tried some “good” craft beers based on friends’ recommendations and still not good. I think beer just isn’t for me. I much prefer cider.

Relevant username maybe?

How fast he travels is what killed the show for me. It’s been quite a while, but I seem to remember him traveling across the country/world multiple times in a 24 hour span.

The account is 2 weeks old, no comments, and this is the only post. I’d say there’s a fair chance of OP being a bot unless they decide to respond to anyone.

While technically, anything you do to them outside of building them per the instructions would be customizing them, I was referring to modifications I made to the model itself. For this one in particular, I raised the neck and collar up by 2mm and cut the back of the head back by 1mm to allow for better head movement. Here’s the full list of everything I did:

• made the modifications stated above
• custom paint job
• resin detail up kit (various greebles on feet, legs, front skirts, shoulders, and shield)
• metal detail up kit (verniers, elbow & knee joints, gun barrel, and power pipes around the waist)
• holographic decals
• matte topcoat

Here’s how the model looked prior to any customization:

I build, customize, and paint Gunpla. I finished this one a couple days ago.

A few more that haven’t been mentioned yet:

Alton Brown - cooking mad scientist

How Money Works - how the rich bastards of the world are screwing the rest of us over

Adam Savage’s Tested - the Mythbusters guy’s channel for building things, talking with other makers, videos on movie props, models, and similar items

Good communication is sexy regardless of how your brain works.

Where is ‘here’?

The current userbase is fine if you like to discuss Linux, Star Trek, politics, or memes. It’s absolutely not large enough for any topic that’s even somewhat niche.

I tried getting back into Lego for a while before switching to Gunpla/mecha models. Lego was starting to get expensive and I had a friend who was pushing me to give Gunpla a try. Your guy looks pretty cool, though. My goal was to build my own custom mecha.

Sometimes you gamble with a fart and lose. Sometimes people learn this the hard way.

Finished this a few days ago. Kitbashed and custom painted.

My main issue with 4 was the powers kinda trivialize things and make vehicles obsolete. Yes, I know I can still drive and customize cars, but what’s the point when I can clear half the city in 2 super jumps? None of the crazy weapons are worth using when you can just stomp or make tornadoes by sprinting. I still had fun with 4, but late game got old kinda fast compared to 3.

Having played 2, 3, and 4, I found 3 hit the sweet spot where things were zany, but not too over the top.

Witch Hat Atelier was a good one that released recently.

There’s nothing wrong with working a job only to pay the bills and seeking fulfillment outside of work. I love my hobbies, but I wouldn’t want to try and monetize them because they’re for my enjoyment, and turning them into a job would sap all that enjoyment out.

I think society (at least in the USA) has failed the younger generations in that regard. I remember being in school in the 90s and 00s and being told repeatedly to go to college for something you enjoy and are passionate about (also you need a 4 year degree, but that’s a different conversation). You definitely aren’t a failure for working a career that falls outside of your passion(s). Ask yourself what your end goal is for pursuing music as a career. Is that goal unattainable by pursuing it outside of work?

MC-kun is frequently a skinny kid with shaggy hair, boring and unrelatable. I know they’re oftentimes supposed to be self inserts, but meh.
