Just out of curiosity, what is the most upvoted post on f.ds? I know A Drowned Kernel's Love Story has 102. I'm not sure if anything has topped that.

I believe it's Celestial Chameleon's 2013 solution to emptying the supply in 4 turns, at +119:

It's possible that there's a Donald X or MF-successor post with more, but I can't find one.

I thought you thought it was a slip because I said 'Jake's partners' instead of 'Roadrunner7671.'

Is anybody into making pixel art?  I'm trying to make a few things for someone and have been trying to learn, and was wondering if anybody has some suggestions.  I've already looked a bit for tutorials online.  Also, if you want, I could maybe send things to you and you can tell me how to fix things.

I used to be, but I doubt I'm any better at it than you are.

Yeah I actually started to get into it a couple months ago. I'm still a beginner, and the program I use is Aseprite. I've been pretty happy with it, and it's got a nice price point.

Also found this guy's tutorials to be really good. My experience has been that it's much easier to create cool looking animations than still art, but ymmv. It's probably just easier to hide my lack of skill that way  :P. I should really practice more.

You're probably already familiar, but r/PixelArt also has some fantastic inspiration and helpful resources.

What do you call a joke that will keep an idiot entertained for hours?
Logged
...spin-offs are still better for all of the previously cited reasons.
But not strictly better, because the spinoff can have a different cost than the expansion.

Actually, the term "tank" for the armoured vehicle was chosen as a codeword when the British were initially designing it, as they wanted any prying eyes to believe the project was for a water carrier vehicle, rather than a new kind of weapon that would be able to break the trench stalemate. Hence, this is not so much a pun as a case of shared etymology.

It is a joke exploiting the different possible meanings of a word. Thusly, it is a pun.

I bought a SteelSeries Rival 300 (I got it for 25€, I mostly made the purchasing decision based on the fact that it was a pretty damn good deal) last week since my old office mouse started to not work very well anymore. This is the first gaming mouse I've ever had and the difference is striking compared to what I thought it would be, you can really feel it even in basic web browsing and stuff, not just gaming (I don't even play action games all that much).

No Razer was in a 65% off deal, and aren't Razers overpriced crap anyway? Not that I know all that much about them from personal experience, though.

Got a Naga about 5 years ago to do 3D modeling work with. It's an amazing piece of hardware. Naga in the right hand and a SpaceMouse in the left, it's like controlling a starship.
