What would be the best site/chatroom to go find a group of users that can tell me something about camera's for monitoring the garden? Probably something I can turn on and stream to e.g. the TV, because I can't view birds/insects in my garden from the living room? :D
Any ideas where those users hang out? The gardening chat seems awfully empty.

Wild SPAM appeared!
ELEMENTS IN SPACE used K!
It’s super effective!
Enemy SPAM is stunned. It may not attack.
ELEMENTS IN SPACE used RED FLAG!
It’s a critical hit!
Enemy SPAM fainted!

@Tinkeringbell I assume the HomeImprovement folks would have done such projects. Maybe photography chat? Otherwise try the AIVD or MIVD forums. They know how to do surveillance ...
69 messages moved to Chimney
@rene Good point, an AIVD afluisterduif would probably work well :D
@ElementsInSpace Enemy SPAM wants to join your team!

@ElementsInSpace The move has no effect?!
The mysterious Spam's gaze is fixed on you...
4:02 PM
@ElementsInSpace at least give us a Fluttershy or Radiant Hope.
4:22 PM
should prepare some more popcorn for the weekend.
watching the fires on reddit and gamefaqs already burnt thru my stocks
@SPArcheon What's the latest fire about? I'm not up to date on what's burning and why.
4:48 PM
@VLAZ ^ this. As for "why"... I have said it before, and it should be easy enough to guess anyway
I'll look into the embers of what's happening. Thanks.
@VLAZ Are you familiar with the original PS1 game?
Vaguely. Never played it but its reputation is wide-reaching. I know they "remade" it few years ago. Or something. It there was some spin with the remake.
Not sure if that was "Rebirth" or not.
Short version. Something happens at the end of Disc One in the original game, some fans "love" it some hate it so much they modded the game to change it.
Remake is announced but it will be a three part game (the first part was released.. about two years ago). The ads start to play with the idea of "something changed". Some character seems to know things they shouldn't. It all gives a big "multiple dimensions" vibe. Yet, they don't commit to any outcome, nor they explain the mess that was happening with the changes (are they actual different dimensions?)
Now part 2 comes, and it ends exactly where THAT happens in the original game.
So, they either have to commit to one outcome... and anger half of the fan base (because if they change it, the original game white knights will want the director head, if they don't then then it will be the other faction who they lied to with ads about "story changes") or they can try to drag out and... anger both.
No matter what they do, the players will be mad at them.
And... they did this all by themselves.
So, call me cynical but this amuses me quite a bit.
Was so simple to avoid it all...
Just be transparent on what you are doing (==selling) from the start.
They tried to sell the game to everyone, now they will pay the price :P
Gamefaqs is already on fire.
And these are just the leaks, game technically isn't even out yet
5:04 PM
@SPArcheon Oh, Aerith, right? I'm aware of what happens if that's the case. I didn't realise the remake was not complete.
As in, that there would be more parts to the remake.
@SPArcheon Completely predictable. Zelda, Final Fantasy, Mario. The three pillars of GameFAQs, lol
@VLAZ well, at least if they are busy making FF7 worse than it was they can't touch Chrono Trigger or try to add further retcon connection to that failure of a fanfiction called Chrono Cross like they did in the DS port.
6:11 PM
@ShadowWizardLoveZelda It's the year 2025. Everyone knew it was coming, but nobody knew it would come this way. @Sha's dirty cloak is flapping about him as he's broodingly walking down a deserted bridge with a manly stubble. Suddenly a chilling whisper could be heard: "Best movers in Hyderabad". @Sha drew his sawn-off shotgun. Five SD K's later, five spammers were dead.
6:23 PM
Best mini story I've read today. :D
@SPArcheon exactly the reason they're doing it. Hype around something is good for sales, no matter which type of hype, good, bad, or terrible. More people hear about the game means more people will buy it, or pay for related merchandise.
Sales Tactics 101
And you're helping them by spreading the word/fire around. ;-)
The Kyoto Animation arson attack (Japanese: 京都アニメーション放火殺人事件, Hepburn: Kyōto Animēshon hōka satsujin jiken, lit. 'Kyoto Animation arson murder incident') occurred at Kyoto Animation's Studio 1 building in the Fushimi ward of Kyoto, Kyoto Prefecture, Japan, on the morning of 18 July 2019. The arson killed 36 people, injured an additional 34 (including the suspect), and destroyed most of the materials and computers in Studio 1. It is one of the deadliest massacres in Japan since the end of World War II, the deadliest building fire in Japan since the 2001 Myojo 56 building fire, and the first massacre...
@SPArcheon TL;DR?
yeah, right, you are probably overestimating the "everything goes" advertisement
