@skinnylatte oh my god freeze-dried pho base is galaxybrain

@mattly @cthos the alternative is admitting that just maybe they were perhaps a touch overenthusiastic and made some ridiculous claims.

Death before displaying any ability to change one's mind.

@skinnylatte yea, New Mexico has some great cuisine

@skinnylatte yea, and textually in the game you experience those moments as that character's own memory of them, and it's… a lot

those Big Emotions come her struggles with a dual identity and wanting to individuate herself from her parents as all do, and their own HKer trauma (and general *gestures* absorbed from the culture like fish in water)

it's a lot, in an amazing (and also heart-rending) way

@skinnylatte there's a bit in 1000xRESIST where a character's (immigrant) dad makes her 伊面 for her birthday and Big Emotions surrounding the noodles and it hit so hard for me that I just kinda had to sit there for a bit and process how much more potent that theme would be if I had lived experience with this cultural relationship to food rather than from-afar shallow awareness of it

@skinnylatte clever name! I assume that space is wordplay on 定食 and 手

@skinnylatte many congratulations Adrianna, this is great news

@dalias once upon a time I found it a more palatable option (perhaps because I was substantially more ignorant of Linux, and things were just generally worse then)

but I'm getting ready to switch to mainline Debian because I get the distinct feeling a lot of the "this is bullshit" behaviors on my system is the direct consequence of being downstream of their decisions

@skinnylatte your parents sound so cool

@skinnylatte she was such a good dog, and she loved you so much

@dalias we were all new to that idea, once

@inthehands true or not, guarantee it's happening somewhere!

@skinnylatte looks very good 🤤

@skinnylatte same, but I was cracking a NYCpol-flavored joke on the "cold hard cash"

@skinnylatte as long as it's not in a potato chip bag

@dalias @hipsterelectron LPM = language package manager, or?

@skinnylatte "why shouldn't we use the ring" dork-ass fools

@skinnylatte I was similarly nonplussed once I'd tried it, having heard all the hype. I personally chalk it up to a few things:

1) California semi-exclusivity pride
2) Secret menu meme
3) MAYONNAISE

@skinnylatte probably true!

@skinnylatte any mental gymnastics at all to avoid those three simple words: "I don't know"
