YSK: About The Sad bastard Cookbook, when time, energy, money, or skill is preventing someone from cooking their own meals!
  • Yeah, tofu by itself can be very boring, but it really shines with the right spices or marinade. The simplest way to make tofu that still tastes great is to cut it up, put the pieces in a container with a tablespoon of soy sauce and some Sriracha (amount depending on your chili tolerance), and shake the container. Then you can use it in many ways, for example by placing it on something that is releasing a lot of steam, like rice that is almost done cooking.

  • Is assasin's creed origins good?
  • As a background, I loved the Ezio games and also enjoyed AC3 somewhat. I also love open world RPGs in general. But I hate grinding and mandatory generic side quests.

    I tried it years ago, but did not like it and stopped playing after some hours. Assassinations via sneaking up and one-shotting were not possible AFAIR, which ruined the fun on assassinations for me. RPG mechanics like leveling and skills were present, but were designed in a way that added nothing of value to the experience while requiring a boring grind. There were many side quests, but they felt boring and generic and. I could have overlooked these things and concentrated on the main story, but engaging in the level grind and the generic side quests was to a large degree mandatory to be able to continue the story. That made me feel like I'm wasting my time and made me stop playing.

    Overall I felt that the game tried to find some compromise between story-based action adventure and open-world RPG, but just ended up combining the worst of both worlds. It felt like the RPG features were pushed in top-down ("everyone is doing open world, levels and skill trees now, we should put that in the game") without any regard to WHY these features work well in some games and how they have to be integrated in order to make the experience more fun.

    I wish there was a sloth month

    Just a month to celebrate relaxation and not obsessing over the grind. Festivals where people just bring camping chairs and chill together. Companies pandering by giving paid extra time off to employees. And so on.

    just messing around with Google ngram, found a surprising correlation with these two words
  • Why the law of large numbers?

    I'd think it's p-hacking. Meaning if he tried out many different combinations, the chances are high he'd eventually come across some which are only correlated by chance. Here's a related XKCD:

  • Performance: Series S vs. Steam Deck

    Hello :) Has anyone here played CP2077 on both Xbox Series S and the Steam Deck? Because these are the only platforms I have, and I'd like to buy the game for one of them. What I'd like to know specifically is if there are performance differences that significantly affect the gameplay itself, not just graphics. So things like draw distance or framerate dropping so low that it affects how you play, or having less NPCs on the streets. Thanks in advance.
