Yikes, sorry for that. I've had the electric depillers cause holes in my knitwear/sweaters more often than I like, that's why I went back to old traditions and haven't had any problems.

Could be user error for both of us, but maybe the real lesson is that clothes nowadays suck/are flimsy as hell?

The headline is doing such a disservice to the actual study, because the study itself is a good thing. 86 000 participants auto-tracked instead of self-reporting (as we've seen in other similar studies) over several years demonstrating that standing for long periods of time is not better than sitting for the same amount.

It might seem obvious to some people, but "common sense" isn't always the same as actual science. This is the type of research and evidence we need to make informed health choices.

Just a correction: it's an actual remake like Resident Evil 4, not a remaster. Entirely new engine (Unreal 5), character models, environments, music/sound, and new content around the plot. Considering the original came out in 2001, the updates were sorely needed imo.

I'm glad that other people are discussing the content of the social media post, because I'm still stuck on "Gong Yoo's future tradwife" as a social media name.

I didn't think shitty dad from Train to Busan/the guy who appeared for 5 minutes on Squid Games would inspire such...interesting fandom fervour.

Get something called a "fabric comb". It's what my grandparents and great grandparents used to depill all their clothes, including delicate wool and cashmere, and that's what I stand by. Cheap, come in different sizes, tooth ranges, and no need to change batteries. Hard to enshittify that.

Find an YouTube video to show you how to comb different grains/types of cloth with it. I was taught by my grandma, but it's pretty easy once you know what you're doing.

Konami needs to get the Dead Cells team (Evil Empire, not Motion Twin) to do a Castlevania game, that DLC (especially the remixed music) was so gas

I'm also sick of Konami just porting the games over and over again. I love Castlevania, but I have bought the games so many times in so many different collections that it feels like it's own pachinko hell. And we all know how Konami feels about pachinko.

I counted the announcement for Prime 4 slated for release next year as part of "recently". I haven't eaten this good as a Metroid fan in years, let me live 😭

The "Metroid" part of the metroidvania genre got two new releases recently, I have hope that the "vania" part will too. -huffs copium-

Love Keepass. Love that I can sync it however I want. Love that there are multiple open source client options across several operating systems.

I recently learned grenadine is called that because it used to be made from pomegranate juice, NOT because it was from Grenada.

Those look closer to durian than pineapples tbh.

I had no idea this was ported to mobile, thank you for informing me. May all your pillows be your preferred temperature for sleeping on both sides for the rest of your life.
