    TORONTO -- Ontario has ordered all non-essential businesses to shut down in order to help prevent the spread of COVID-19.

    Premier Doug Ford made the announcement Monday afternoon about a week after declaring a state of emergency in the province.

    The order will come into effect on March 24 at midnight and will remain in place for at least two weeks.

    Guess im out of a job?

    I assume?

    Probably? Lot's stuff depends on your company and how they handle this (furlough verse paid leave verse government picking up the tab).

    My friend who works at Marriott is on furlough and she is corporate.

    Alyx update: My rig is not beefy enough to run it and stream it at the same time. Unsure of which component of my stream stuff is causing it, I briefly switched off the stream to test and it was still slideshowing. I suspect it might be the overlay I'm using to see twitch chat, I've caught it gobbling CPU when minimized a few times. Might science at it later, currently I am resting my arms from having done some beat saber to verify that it was an Alyx problem and not all games.

    It was that somehow, from within the derelict-horror, they had learned a way to see inside an ugly, broken thing... And take away its pain.

    Went shopping yesterday, store was completely out of sugar.

    What the hell are people stocking up on sugar for? I mean like flour, ok, I mean I know y'all motherfuckers aren't gonna be baking any bread but you can lie to yourselves.

    The fuck you gonna do with 10 lubs of sugar? Is your plan to avoid the apocalypse by slipping into a diabetic coma?

    it's frustrating because I baked before and now I can't get any ingredients! why would you panic buy something you don't even use?! or know how to use?

    is this aspirational prepping?

    I'm actually thinking I should try making bread for the first time in my life.

    I'll see if there's any flour at the stores tomorrow. And baking powder? I don't even know what I need.

    Do it. If you wanna do a simple yeast bread (whatever the shape and crustiness) , you need flour, water, yeast, and some salt. That's it.

    If you want a richer dough you can add eggs, sugar, or more fat to get cakier texture. Egg especially compensates for mistakes, challah is quite forgiving and easy.

    no. knead. bread.

    its so easy. And so good. and literally foolproof.

    Challenge accepted.

    since when do rocks give 8 drops a day
    mine give 3, just like trees

    Historical quirk, possibly an unintended mechanic from the original, but rocks will pay out until all adjacent tiles are filled if you hit them rapidfire as described in my post. It's like the item payout counter takes a certain number of frames to increment after being hit and rapid strikes reset it.

    It's intentional for sure in this game though because there's a nook miles achievement for doing it.

    if you think animal crossing doesn't have hardcore esoterica and ridiculous try hard strats, you are very wrong. under the slack key guitar soundtrack is the beating heart of an economics simulation, yearning to be broken.

    Had a bottle of that not so long ago.

    Pretty decent for the price point, drank it a little faster than I intended but it was good.

    Found a hell of a deal on this whiskey called Rebel Yell.

    $13 a bottle, and drinks well above its price tag.

    Bought the last two bottles on the shelf at the store yesterday. I'm not shy about hoarding non-essentials, and I'll need it if this shit is going to stretch on for a long time.

    As crazy as this seems I'm setting up an area in my basement to store canned and boxed goods (also paper products) and will be cycling through them once every year or every two years or so as they expire.

    It sucks I can't get a box of fucking pasta, some sauce, and toilet paper. If I have to eat canned tomato sauce and dump in half a cup of garlic powder, so I can actually have a meal so be it.

    writing resetti's dialogue must have been great

    "so this is a game for children"
    "yes"
    "and everyone is unfailingly friendly and charming"
    "yes"
    "but you want this character to scream threats at the children"
    "children who try to cheat the game, yes"
    "can he threaten to kill the player?"
    "hmm, he can't say that and keep an E rating, but try to give the impression that he would very much like to"
    "what about pretending to delete the save game? that would probably make the kids cry"
    "I love it"

    I accidentally binge drank on saturday night because I made a blender drink and incorrectly converted shots to ounces. it was a bad time.

    I am glad it's such a bad time for me. It provides a very good backstop against bad behavior.

    You cheated not only the game, but yourself. You didn't grow. You didn't improve. You took a shortcut and gained nothing. You experienced a hollow victory. Nothing was risked and nothing was gained. It's sad that you don't know the difference.

    I learned the hole digging trick on my own because in Animal Crossing Wild World, every day one of your rocks would pay out bags of money when you hit it. one of my rocks was near a tree and I noticed I could get a few more bags out of it if I put my back to the tree, to reduce recoil, because it seemed like the payout continued for a time after the first strike, not for a set quantity.

    The hole pattern was the easiest way to make sure I couldn't get knocked away, and you can dig it anywhere.

    Just tried it in New Horizons to see and it worked.
