Pass out? Likely not. Do very silly things? I bet.

Come on, man, you know you like those odds. /peerpressure

[kaijyuu]

I do very silly things anyway. The alcohol might keep me from literally running away in embarrassment, though.

[Flying Dice]

Eh, s'like anything else. A nip of quality liquor or a bottle of good, dark beer can be enjoyable at times, but too many people have no damned self control. Or taste, for that matter.

[MaximumZero]

I still have no student aid. RAAAGH!

The minimum font size on ff.n was apparently just jacked up to "I am half-blind and have never heard of glasses, do you have text for me?". FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU



(Hoping so badly it is a momentary derp rather than an intended change--I grew up reading poorly printed doorstoppers with tiny fonts and I'm not about to stop now.))

Mobile's smallest is this, I think. Then if you really want it smaller, zoom out, I guess.

Alternately you can nab up one of the fanfic downloader proggies that export to html and just adjust the browser font. Can probably do that anyway if you set the webpage settings to user or whatev'. Did that with firefox when I wanted my soothing grey text on dark blue background and size twenty or so font.

Try clicking the smaller font icon (its next to the larger A). seemed to change it for me.

Difficulty generating a non-waterworld in Simearth (PC)

If I could get water vapor out of the atmosphere I could probably fix it but I don't know how to vanish water without it going somewhere...

Thus far, I've never been drunk.

I'll occasionally drink something alcoholic (the only things I like are small amounts of cider, mulled wine (only have that on new year's), the blue WKD that's something like 3%, and apple sourz (can only take a small mouthful of that))

I think that having maybe a small glass of one of these very other month won't kill me.

Actually, two or less (and equivalent) beers a day is healthy for you. You have an entire section of your liver dedicated to just processing alcohol, because of its role in the formation of human society. But any more than two beers a day is unhealthy. I believe one glass of red wine a day is supposed to help ward off either heart disease or cancer. I'm not sure on that.

[penguinofhonor]

Drats. I've had three today.

Well, two and a Mike's. I swear, Mike's is like candy. Candy that gets you drunk.

Actually I'd probably put Apple Sourz in the same category.

It's heart disease, yes, but iirc it's an effect limited to red wines grown in certain areas. Something about soil composition. Cheap shit you buy in an American liquor store probably won't have quite the same effect. S'more likely to be found in European stuff, so far as I'm aware, and that's where the studies I've ran into produced notably positive results.

I've chimed in on alcohol use a number of times, so no real need to repeat m'self, I guess. I will say that, for folks uninterested in the stuff, never feel pressured to consume alcohol. You are under no true obligation to imbibe a mood altering poison, nor are you missing out on anything truly substantial. If you don't want to, don't. You're in no way lesser because of it.

Physics, more accurately, the part where you have to do math magic to extract one value out of a big pile of equations, or in this case one equation, and it's giving me a god damned headache trying to figure out how they got what they did.

ARGH

Edit:
SUCESS!!!!

Seconds after posting this, I look back at the equation, get an idea and half a minute later and one fixed minus it's finished, god damn it it's infuriation how hidden in plain sight these things can be sometimes, still, it's done, time to move on bigger stuff X)

Try clicking the smaller font icon (its next to the larger A). seemed to change it for me.

It wasn't working for me, although the enlarge icon was.

Oh? You wanted smaller text? Is that so? Text isn't small enough for you? WELL THEN YOU CAN JUST HAVE LARGER TEXT JACKASS!

[Aklyon]

Well, that reminded me why I haven't played hammerfight in awhile. Plenty of nice smashing in one of the modes, and then TWO SIEGE BOMBS AT ONCE as my greeting back into the arena.

You goddamn lunatic of an AI. Why must you make the smashing unfun.
