CDPR is about to serve us up the tutorial again, but with entirely new music.

He can't keep getting away with this!

My wife is always shocked to learn that despite communicating with him somewhat regularly, I have absolutely no details regarding any of my brother's upcoming plans or life events. Yes, I know he's engaged. I think I was one of the first to hear about it.. No, I don't know when he plans to get married, or where.. I don't know if he's going to South America again this year. I don't know any of this. It didn't come up. He will probably tell me if/when he does. I'm not really worried about it.

What do we talk about? Memes, mostly.. Most recently I've been sending him these fake Rastafarian AI doctor videos on Instagram with hilarious visual demonstrations of poop flying out of butts like a whirlwind while a passionate man talks about selling you his herbal cleanse. Now I've discovered the female version that is all about vaginal disbiosis and what to do "when ya poosee smell like a rotten fish mahhket" (you buy her secret Rasta herbal cleanse, that's what you do..)

But no, I don't know if he's coming for Christmas.

Maybe this fuckin' cop can figure out what keeps happening to all those balls that dissappear over that fence..

What kind of loser hasn't double-dogged it before?

I remember being mortified whenever mom would take me pants shopping and would tell the hot ass associate that we were looking for the husky section. Like, obviously the woman that was way too old for me could clearly tell that I needed that section, but something about mom saying just really drove the nail into my guts.

You can't just tell Wendy Peffercorn that your boy needs husky pants..

This is solid advice. New owners recently banned earbuds at work, which really sucks, but something curious happened as a result. I stopped listening to political shit on YouTube five days per week and I've never felt more calm. Now when I occasionally do pop in to Kyle Kulinski or something I see the world is still on fucking fire, but I got five good days of peace and my attention to the matter made no difference to anyone else.

I'd munch her..

Fuckin A, bud..

 

I'm having trouble with the audio volume in Stardew Valley mobile. With wired headphones, the audio is very loud, but if I'm using Bluetooth (and I've tried multiple pairs), the audio in that game sounds as though it's capped at 50% and it's not a comfortable experience. My physical volume is at 100% and I've checked my Earfun settings to make sure everything is as high as it can go. My old Anker Soundcore earbuds had the same issue, but enabling 3D Audio in their settings seemed to fix it. My Earfun Air Pro 4's don't appear to have that option.

What's perplexing to me is that the audio from literally any other source is perfectly loud. Spotify, YouTube, other games.. It's fine. But I boot up Stardew and it's like playing with a wax blockage in both ears. Again, this is not an issue at all if I switch to wired earbuds/headphones.

Is there any way for me to amplify volume in general, or to apply amplification specifically to that app? I feel like I've tried everything to no avail. Volume booster apps have done nothing, Androids native Sound Amplifier does nothing, and I've enabled dev tools and everything.

I'm at a loss.

I seem to encounter this often while using Sync, and have so for the past couple of years. Not sure why it's taken until now to ask about it. The issue is always as shown here. I'll open a post, even one that I've interacted with and have received replies, but despite my efforts I can't get it to actually display the comments. This seems to happen completely at random, and perhaps as often as 1 in 8 posts. Comments work completely fine elsewhere.

Clicking "View post" via the prompt at the bottom makes no difference.

Any ideas?

 

My daughter (5) loves to play games with me on my PC. Favorites of hers include Spyro Reignited, Untitled Goose Game, House Flipper, and Skyrim (she basically putts around whatever town I throw her in and steals from the locals' homes).

She is really into anything with simple mechanics, non-scary exploration, and minimal reading/menu navigation. Being able to go into various houses is a huge plus. She loves to snoop.

Tonight she was laughing her ass off while watching gameplay from a game called I Am Cat. I told her I'd get it for her, but unfortunately it's VR-only, and you can't strap those things to a little kid. I believe you have to be 12+ to use them safely without adverse effects on development and motor skills.

When asked just now for anything she'd like to add, she said, "Funny, happy, and beautiful!"

With all of that said, any recommendations?

My daughter gets very limited monitored phone time on the weekends or long trips to play art and learning games. She loves to play with filters, too, but I don't want to grant her access to something like Snapchat that overly-beautifies her image and will wind up giving her a complex.

Does anyone know of any kid-friendly filter apps that will turn them into animals or make their faces look funny, without all the weird filters that are unnecessarily adult or sexy?
