Weird scenario, but I wanna do a treat every hour for 12 hours.

Anyone know of a good feeder or something that can do that? I could buy two 6 slot feeders and have them pick up after each other, but that seems a bit absurd.

So imagine this:

you owe X amount of money, and fleeing the country makes it vanish

Or you accidentally are given X amount of money, and fleeing the country is only way to keep it

I want to work on complimenting other men more! Specifically my goal is to compliment people on things they clearly worked hard on or put in effort, cause it sucks if you work super hard or care about something and then don't feel like anyone notices.

So I'm going to try and compliment people who:

Have really well done and unique tattoos

Are older but super athletic (It's harder and more thankless, since when you're young and athletic you're usually in sports and get lots of praise. At least that was my experience)

Have super sharp outfits

Have really nice shoes (nice shoes are expensive and keeping them clean is legit hard)

what are other good compliments we should give each other?

EDIT: Oh and I still remember when I got a compliment on what I was getting while grocery shopping. So if I see like real good food in there I'll try to throw out a "looks like you're cooking up some good stuff"

Hi everyone!

Few months ago I asked about finding a good cheap escooter: https://lemmy.world/post/15970361

After watching this review: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lsC8Fd7Hb1w&t=472s

I ended up buying this scooter!

https://gotrax.com/products/seated-electric-scooter

On Thursday did my longest trip with it and did nearly 13 miles, and it still had over 25% left. I weigh 140 pounds so me being light might be why it had such a good range.

Otherwise I use it a ton to go grocery shopping every couple days, get to dr appointments, and the like. It's wonderful for little me who works from home and is within 4 miles of most things I need.

Also I have a room mate who doesn't have a car for financial reasons, and they've fallen in love with it as well for running errands under 2 miles so they've mentioned they might get one once they get a bit more money so they don't have to borrow mine. Only complaint is I might try to make the basket bigger, as it's a tad small!

But yeah just wanted to throw out my experience for anyone else looking for a cheap escooter!

So these items are "kind of" cursed, where instead of them just being "using these are a bad idea" they are "using these are risky" these are potential gifts from the God of Chance, entertainment, gambling, and risk.

Any suggestions on these, or any new ones you think I should add?

Orb of random dragon! - Throwing this orb as a bonus action to the ground summons a draconic spirit from another dimension, roll to choose the color. It may or may not be hostile to you. The dragon can return to their plane at any time and vanishes back if slain. Single use.

Double or nothing - A magical coin with an X on one side and a winking dragon on the other. On taking damage, as a reaction flip a coin. Heads you take double damage, tails you take no damage. Single use.

Mirrored coin - On breaking this coin as a bonus action you let out an aura of bad luck that lasts for one minute. You have disadvantage on all saving throws, and any saving throws you force another creature to make they also have disadvantage. Single use.

Amulet of bloody good luck - Before making a saving throw you can activate this amulet as a reaction and roll a d10 and add the result to your saving throw. You take 5 force damage ignoring temp HP * the amount rolled on the d10.

Push your luck - On failing a saving throw as a reaction you may roll again using this bracelet, if you fail again you suffer the normal consequences as well as getting 2 levels of exhaustion.

Staff of odds - This magical staff with a laughing jester atop it has a -2 to hit on any spells cast from it, but crit on a 20 or 19

Call to the unknown - A golden wired diamond ear piece. Expend a spell slot as an action while targeting a creature. A spell of that level + 1 is randomly cast targeting that creature. Concentration is held by the Call to the Unknown and must be destroyed to end the effects early.

All on black - A necklace of a roulette wheel. As a bonus action activate the necklace by spinning it and roll a d10. On evens instantly have the benefits of a long rest. On odds, fall to 0 hp and become cursed for 12 hours. While cursed this way you are stable, can not regain HP, and this curse can not be removed except for Wish or act of god.

Dressed to kill - This wispy reaper like cloak means you no longer roll death saving throws, but die if you hit 0 hp as you are whisked into the cloak. Creatures you reduce to 0 hp instantly die even if they would normally stabilize or have death saving throws, as the soul is instantly brought into the shroud. The creature can not go to a clone or be revived until freed from the cloak.

So my mom has been saying for awhile how she wished she could play Hogwarts legacy, and my older sister just replaced her gaming PC. So my sister sent her old pc to my mom. Nothing crazy, but meets minimum system requirements! My mom is now kind of speed running learning about gaming and it's been amusing. I just think these are adorable.

1. She complained that she couldn't find the game for sale for PC anywhere, she could only find it for XBOX and PS. She was looking on amazon, and I had to point her towards steam, and help her setup an account for steam.

2. She happened to purchase it while it was on sale and she was super confused why it was randomly on sale! Had to explain how steam works. She's disabled and the $60 was the extent of her fun money for the month, so getting it on sale was a huge deal to her.

3. Complaining at how long it took to download the game off wifi when she was ready to play RIGHT NOW. She kept asking if we could use an Ethernet cable to make it go faster, but her PC was like 40 feet from the nearest jack and we didn't have a long enough ethernet cable (No I wasn't driving home to my house to look for one, and no I wasn't buying her one. Love you momma! You gotta wait!)

4. She realized she hates mouse and keyboard, so used the money she saved from the sale to buy a little controller from walmart.

5. She talked about how much she likes that because she's on "story mode" she can skip puzzles/challenges she thinks are stupid. Considering there are games I never beat as a kid because of a specific mini game/challenge I couldn't beat, I resonated with that. Back when we were kids if there was a quick time event you couldn't beat, we quit the game!

6. A few weeks later she talked about how she was super happy to finally find a youtuber that would give walk through/tips/advice on how to do things in a not annoying way. The one she likes are basically "Here is a 30 second clip of doing this specific thing in this room". She is not a fan of 30 minute lets plays with intros/outros.

7. Complaining about long load times between rooms, and quests that make her go through multiple loading zones. No comment, she's just right to complain.

All her revelations were super relatable and I just thought it was cute that at an older age she went through modern gaming transition in a few weeks, and hit on emotions we all basically hit.

She's super creative with instant mashed potato's and using them makes:

Potato patties

Black bean burgers

Shepard's pie

I actually made some black bean burgers using the recipe and they came out great!

TLDR: Looking for a 3+ wheeled vehicle that can be locked up like a bike and maybe taken on a bus.

So my sister has health issues that means she can't drive/get a license, and that she'd most likely fall over on a scooter. She mostly walks/busses around, but the bus system is closed on sundays and makes life difficult.

So yeah, wondering if there is anything that would be allowed on sidewalks/bike lanes with 3+ wheels and a bit more speed than walking so she can increase her range that she can get to, but like be able to be chained to a bike rack.

IDK bit of a stretch, but maybe you all know something!

BIOS version: 6332

Motherboard:

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/6FvZxr/asus-prime-a320m-k-micro-atx-am4-motherboard-prime-a320m-k

CPU:

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/Qk2bt6/amd-ryzen-9-5950x-34-ghz-16-core-processor-100-100000059wof

According to part picker the cpu should work with version 5862

So it seats nicely and machine powers on, but then the lights on my mouse/keyboard flash on, then off. Then after about a minute the PC turns off.

According to part picker my power supply can handle what I have attached with the new CPU, but I don't really know how to test that.

Already took out the cmos battery and reset.

Putting in my old cpu works just fine, so I didn't brick anything.

Any ideas?

I make gravy for potatoes/rice using bouillon cubes, but IDK what to put over my biscuits!

Any suggestions? (preferably on cheaper side so can eat it on the regular)

According to research ending every call with "Have I resolved all your issues?" Reduces how often people call back.

But yeah if you want to upgrade your product, it takes 5 inbound calls because of the steps. All but the last one could be automated.

I got yeeted.
