my face-palm was when I noticed the date at the upper right corner of the main screen and status screen/
self, how did it take you so long to notice this?
Did you recently install DFHack?

Because DFHack is how you get the date showing all the time.

Yeah, I saw. Bumber didn't seem to understand.

(Or maybe s/he did, and was showing the newb that vanilla doesn't have that. Facepalm - hey this is the right thread for that yay)

Either way, just confirming (because I looked through a list of DFHack capabilities) that yes, it IS a DFHack thing.

A small facepalm for all the times i've embarked on a site without a pick looking for clay and then realising all the red around me is clay loam i can't harvest.

(Seriously, nerf clay it's super OP as a building material, some gamestart mud huts are gamebreaking, and you can literally do it for 10 embark points only with 1 piece of charcoal)

given the unlikeliness of Porkins having a world made like five actual years ago. Probably just A Cacame.

He was frustracted after a lack of decent meals for too long.
For Armok's sake, there were piles of roasts....why did you decide to eat raw mushrooms and complain about it???!!!

To be fair, the roasts and biscuits and whatnot are all made out of the same stuff. I can't imagine mushroom roast being much better than mushroom tofu. He was simply being efficient and then complaining about it.

:P I know. But I have all kinds of roasts.
I think the real problem is dwarves tend to fetch the nearest pile of food. So maybe next time I need to use separated piles for prepared and raw.

My Miner got stuck on a Tree.
He was one of the starting seven dorfs  >:(
When i found him he was heavily starting and was very very very... thirsty.
I told Urist McWoodChopper to chop tree down where Urist McStupidMinerStuckOnATree Was...
Urist McWoodChopperLazyFatty was Sleeping in his bedroom and i told his Cousin to do it.
Urist Not McWoodChopper chopped down tree where Urist McStupidMinerStuckOnATree Was...
A Falling log fell on the Miner's Stomach and bruising his guts!
Miner died from dehydration... (゚ロ゚〃).....
It was inevitable.....

Just to let you know that i was embarked in a Savage biome where there was giant flies around. for some reason the when dwarves see a giant fly on top of their heads they will chase the fly and they would climb a tree and get stuck there...

Lesson learned... Chop all the trees because the dwarves get stuck on trees because they are like cats that get stuck on trees on fireman stories in RL. even though it will make the elves mad. the elves can enjoy their magma bath when trapped on top of a tree...
