Apparently once you make a haymaker deck you dominate everyone. Which sounds promising.

I thought they nailed it, much better them owning it all in one go than a bland press release, or even worse, multiple ones. Either way, much better than the "we're not releasing it yet because we want to make it the best game it can be" that Nintendo rolls out for every single one of its delayed titles. We know that's not the reason, don't bullshit us.

New song from the Delta. Love the song, video is a bit... boring. The still above is pretty much the whole thing. Has me more excited to see her live in a couple of weeks.

Ooooh I've been thinking about this and wondering where it was. Best be a decent price

Wash your fucking mouth right now.

I was toying with the idea of getting a new mouthpiece for my sax, the good pieces going into triple figures. My Sensei recommended him testing my unit out before making any decisions. In last lesson he tried Benny with his own mouthpiece, remarked on how heavy mine was by comparison, how some of the keys are not realistically placed and how much more effort he had to give to make a sound. I know my sax wasn't top quality, but at least I got him to be more impressed than before now he knows what I have been working with. So it's a case of finding a whole new saxophone. I've found one which has been recommended by my teacher second hand, so I've dropped £600 for a Yamaha. Sadly not a black one like mine, but I'm having to forego aesthetics for quality. Should be coming next week and my sound can improve. All the innuendo yes.

I would be trying for a different broad also. And a different setup. I used to have the riverland setup, so I had a nice Cow Island, Duck Island, and the top was for crops. I may even try to save the community centre this time, but looking at all the random fishing n shit the missus had to do, I might just not bother.

blah... r-...ranger... rangers... I know

I've been thinking a bit about this, and I'm agreeing and disagreeing. I disagree in the sense that I think it's given me a good idea on sentences and how things are said, albeit some can be a bit random... I doubt I will ever need to say something like "The elephant doesn't like to eat meat and sleeps". but one thing I have picked up in the coffee break and Memrise (for the latter I really should've realised sooner) is the in/formal way of saying things, which on Duolingo you may get the hang of if it makes its way onto the article feed, which can be able random bollocks most of the time. However the more of agreeing with you, and this I think is way more important than the above, is that whilst Duolingo can sometimes give you the option to be in/formal, it never tells you what is the right answer for what they're asking. For example it may ask you to translate "Do you speak German?", which can be either Formal: "sprechen sie Deutsch?" or Informal: "Sprichst du Deutsch?", both are right but it's a 50/50 chance that you'll be giving them the answer that they're looking for, with zero context*. Which obviously is a shitty way of learning a new language. *Whereas Memrise does give context, but I've found they're moving away more from sentences into mainly single words. They're updating their stuff and I've had a bit of an early access thing where they've moved the videos of native speakers aside, but more interestingly they've got an AI going which you have a small chat with (about 5 messages at a time) and role play.

They're getting penalised and their response is to give more responsibility to those causing the issue?! Originally I just thought the company were telling them to go fuck themselves and teaching them a lesson, but if they're losing money from it, that's suicide.

With our Sky Glass previously non-functional I have been making the most of the Funimation subscription. I finished the second season of Promised Neverland, which really glossed over what I discovered was the ending of the manga (which apparently fans of the manga weren't fans about, but I could only really see one portion which would annoy them the most). With what I think was about 5 or so years of pivotal events condensed into about 10 stills. They could have easily made another season going over this. Blasted through season 3 of Dr Stone, which felt faster paced than previous seasons, but I think that's because I watched it so quickly. Annoying that they're holding off on the last episode until October. Not a mid-season split that seems to be the thing nowadays, Just one episode. Seeing what movies were on the app, I came across Yu-Gi-Oh! The Dark Side of Dimensions. It's what you'd expect from another Yu-Gi-Oh movie, but the motives of people are all over the map. Still, it's got me playing that free game on Switch. Trying to focus on Demon Slayer now, I started it at the same time as My Hero Academia, but I don't think I could juggle two 6 season animes at the same time, so will come back to the weird X-Men later. I also recommend Ōoku: The Inner Chambers on the Netflix. It's not my usual watch, but it's quite interesting. Be warned though, the first episode starts in the more-so-present, and everything after that is like a prologue/flashback, which was quite jarring to begin with. Watch naaaoow

Hats off to the chap, I don't think I could learn many more languages. How some people know 4-5 is beyond my understanding!

Same dude I think, but this time you're "learning with him!" as he doesn't know any German.

To prepare for my trip to Oktoberfest I've ramped up the German learnage. Now doing 2 lessons on Duolingo a day and upped the daily word review on Memrise to 15 (from 5) I've also come across this podcast Coffee Break German - Coffee Break Languages and have been listening to some of these on the bus to work. Skipped ahead a bit because I had already covered some bits.

Update: I tried playing the beginning of the DX version and the slow-ish text started to put me off. So fired up the Switch version, one of the main reasons was to go through Angler's Tunnel sober. As I last did it after a night out on muscle memory alone. I only remember beating the Angler Fish. But I managed it this time and finished it over the weekend. I get the feeling that part of the hit detection on some wasn't all that great. Main example was against the Armos Knight on the way to the Face Shrine, it was giving you arrows in the room before, so obviously they're needed, and not being able to hit from the front = arrows from behind. Didn't work so searched for the FAQ, and I was doing it right and I offloaded so many arrows, point blank straight up the anus and it bounced off. But going from a weird angle where you think the hit box wouldn't count = damage. Not Switch Online, but fuck it.

Many thanks! Looking at the comparison, it feels weird that I felt really proud about the first set. Probably because it was my first tattoo and it did look a little better. With a lack of outline the red/oranges/yellows blended into a mess. Hopefully now it'll get a bit more recognition!

Boombastic bump 2, electric bumpaloo Now waiting for that initial swelling to go down

Have you not seen a manga in real life before? Even when in Engrish they fuck you over like this.

I'm gonna flip reverse it if I do play these, as I always played Ages first. Last time wasn't too long ago on the eShop versions, and I couldn't understand if it linked correctly, because apparently there was meant to be a Zora in the Hero's Cave, which was meant to be bigger, but it was the normal puzzle size and no Zora. I get the feeling I probably fucked up somewhere. The weird thing is, for some random reason I'm still feeling a pull to redo Link's Awakening, and not the Switch version. I think looking at sheet music for it is bring the urge.

Looks like it! Not sure why Lego/Facebook decided to blast it on the ol' feed. It looks like it would be a blast to build, but has little swooshability afterwards.

Stardew being updated is intriguing, I've been toying with giving it another playthrough. Glad to hear there's more reason to.

I've given the demo a go, not a bad lil setup, had the head being scratched a bit. How long is the rest of the game?

They're gonna make an alternative Master Cycle with that horse head on instead...
