My Daughter has lost 8 teeth so far(she is 7) and we give her a toonie($2) per tooth. However, when she lost two in one day(she was really nervous about losing the second one so I said "the more teeth under the pillow the better the bounty from the fairy" we gave her $5).

She is a light sleeper, so we worried, but kids even the light sleepers sleep through things like quietly reaching under their pillow. If they do start to wake up, just give them a kiss and say you wanted a midnight kiss.

For one tooth we forgot and she woke up at 4:45 in the morning and checked to find her tooth there and we calmed her down and said she must be at the end of the tooth fairys loop tonight, and she would be fine but she had to go back to sleep so the tooth fairy could do it! Then when I was tucking her back in I quickly swapped the tooth for the coin and she didnt even notice until she woke up.

Also always have the coin/money on hand. My wife usually carries the cash and we were camping without my wife and my daughter lost her tooth, thank goodness my parents were there and had cash!

I would just like to see more games be a bit friendlier with settings. Give me some real potato settings or focus a bit more on optimization so I can play stuff without having to futz with settings so much.

It is still a loss for linux gamers.

Pass. I don't really think they match the vibe of the rest of lemmy.ca and many other instances.

Just make sure you plant native trees! The last thing we need is invasive species.

I don't see how they could make the level cap 20. The spells would be really hard to regulate at that point.

Possibly it was low hanging fruit. Easy to implement, and it gives people a feature pretty much everything else has.

New clan and lots of visual changes.

Also Motorhead lemmy deserves higher Google ratings than we do. He is a beast.

I'm having a weird issue with baldurs gate 3 and am hoping I can get some advice.

The launcher works without issue but the game itself never opens a window. I can hear it launch and play, but it never actually renders a window. Even in gamescope its just a black screen.

I am using AMD+Mesa with Sway as my WM. if I do a swaymsg -t get_tree it shows the launcher window, but nothing for the game window so its not on a different or invisible workspace.

anyone else experiencing an issue like this?

EDIT: I managed to resolve this issue with Steam flatpak. Odd.

I really like how with Sync I can have a Hide button available on the card. Please let us customize the card buttons! (if it does exist I haven't found how to do it yet).

I would one time pay for this, but a subscription feels meh.

Hi Folks,

I am going to be participating in Extra Life this year and created a script that will flip my monitor upside down for 5 minutes randomly. I am looking for some more ideas for simple scripts or commands that could be entertaining for some donation incentives.

As a side not I am currently using EndeavourOS and Sway.

It feels like they just kinda nerfed everything including the fun.

I went here with my 6 year old daughter and my parents this past weekend. I grew up coming here with my dad and it feels really special to share it with my daughter. I can't wait to go back.

There are apparently known problems (GitHub Issues #5807) in both Edge and Firefox with this newly released browser extension update (2023.7.0), which should hopefully be fixed soon.

I'm not really surprised. I feel like Halo has been losing steam for a while and Infinite had the vibe of the devs doing everything popular because it makes money not because they had an awesome idea.

I generally find Ebay/Etsy are the most cost efficient. Especially when starting off, but I do like supports the artists myself. So shows can be a good place.

Where do you find patches?
