I have exactly this problem. It's also very difficult when watching a movie adaptation of a book I've read, to associate the character from the book with the actor in the movie. When I read, they're just a name.
Agreed on this. They're just so good at making new interesting things that it feels like a bit of a shame to waste time on sequels. I even really enjoyed Pyre, despite it being generally considered the weakest of their games; it was such an interesting setting and premise.
Bastion and Transistor both had very satisfying conclusions to their stories and revisiting either doesn't feel necessary.
These are fun... Pretty sure the last two are beyond my patience.

Maybe it's a magnetic field or some such that reflects the attack, but it's powered by a capacitor and discharges as soon as you raise the shield. Best explanation I've got.
A guarantee from Trump is worth less than the paper it's printed on, and even less than that in this specific case.
This actually seems like a great idea. Avoid having watered down coffee when it melts.
That's really what I'm most worried about with all of this. He's just the kind of person that'd be like "See? I do not!" and just enact 200% tariffs on the whole world to 'prove' it.
Maybe we can come to an agreement with Canada. They can send all their far right assholes to the US, we'll migrate all of our progressives and left-leaning folks.
Seriously, why aren't all of the 'Covid vaccines are implanting microchips' conspiracy theorists losing their goddamn minds over Neuralink?
The saddest thing about this is that they don't feel comfortable being a furry even around their close friends. :( Sounds like they need new friends.
Just wanted you to know, @ickplant@lemmy.world, that your personal carrying of this community with daily bat pics was both noticed, and appreciated!
I'm sure there's a really simple answer to this, but it's a surprisingly difficult problem to search for.
I've got a RichTextBox control and I'm trying to write text that includes the letters "ff", but they don't show up. This is the specific code in question:
for entry in suffix:
desc += "[color=darkgray]Suffix (Tier: %s, Quality: %s%%) 'of %s'\n[color=royalblue]" % [entry.tier, entry.quality, entry.mod.name]
This is what it ends up printing:
If I change one or both of the Fs to capitals, they both display fine; it's specifically two lowercase Fs that're problematic. They also display fine elsewhere in the same textbox; it's just this line specifically that's problematic. Even tried escaping it but it didn't like that, either.
Most of the settings on the RichTextBox are default; the font has a lowercase 'f' character; I haven't done anything weird with the font size, or style, or anything else.
I'm tearing my hair out here. Please tell me this is just some stupid bbcode tag or some such.
Edit: For anyone finding this later:
It's a ligature (ffi) that the font is missing a glyph for. To solve the problem: On the Import tab, choose the font you're using, click Advanced, and under Metadata Overrides, expand OpenType Features, click Add Feature -> Ligatures, add whichever option is appropriate (discretionary or standard ligatures), then disable the option. Reimport the font, and the issue is fixed!
Cords are a union between one male and one female end. Just like God intended.
