Well currently, there's this obscure website called...Twitter.
Twitch has also done this, but I'm more assuming Twitch has a worse new design for mobile, because that's why every bad site design happens nowadays.
@kkslider5552000 heck, I'm sick of mobile design for sites even when on mobile. They don't work, have missing important parts, and i bought a big phone specifically to get full pages. Sure you can request desktop.... Usually. Ugh... Google...
@ThanosReXXX I'll definitely take a fair few photos. I'll be sure to try and upload the best ones for viewing in this thread.
You could be one of those lucky individuals who isn't dined on by mosquitoes as often. Apparently a lot of factors go into if one is targeted more often, like the amount of carbon dioxide one gives off, clothing color, and possibly even their blood type. I don't usually get eaten alive, but they seem to have a slight preference for my blood if I'm out mowing too late. They aren't out and about yet here, but it's only a matter of time lol.
@WoomyNNYes@BruceCM Oh sorry, I'll edit my post to make it easier to see. I don't think I've spelled out element names since highschool... habit.

@Eel Well, don't leave us hanging: what was it that you ordered, got refunded and now still got delivered for free?
@Tyranexx Yeah, nowadays we do understand a bit more about what attracts insects. Back in the day, we used to think that all insects were attracted by light instead of by the carbon dioxide that we give off, and around these parts, there used to be this kind of commonly accepted rumor that people that get stung more, probably have "sweet" blood...
That is also why I mentioned in my previous comment that they don't seem to like my blood. I know it's nonsense, but when you grow up with fairy tale wisdoms like that, some of it is bound to linger in the brain.

@ThanosReXXX now don’t laugh, but it was a shaker cup and a (way tinier than I imagined) bottle of energy drink powder. I got the idea late at night after watching a YouTube video. So yeah...
It’s one of those risks I take when I buy things from other countries, if they send them through traditional postage, without a company like DHL or the like, I am guaranteed to wait for it at least a few months, or never get it, at all.
5 years since I joined Nlife dudes!
2015 had some crazy speculation about the NX...and it was when Majora's Mask 3D came out.
A nintendo game I liked from that year in particular was Yoshi's Woolly World. Well, tbh I played the 3DS version which came out some years later. But I assume the base game is about the same with better graphics.

@ThanosReXXX I've worked with (malaria) mosquitoes before, designing mosquito traps. You're right that they're attracted by carbon dioxide. The bait we used was a combination of carbon dioxide (although I believe we also had a successful one without the CO2), a heat element, and worn sock. Body odours are also an important factor, and I think that this may determine whether someone attracts more mosquitoes or not. After all, body odours differ from person to person.
@Eel Why would I laugh at that? As long as you didn't buy a sippy cup, it's perfectly normal, far as I'm concerned. And who doesn't engage in the odd impulse buy every now and then? I mean: did I really need that USB fan, or that remote-controlled light bulb that can emit all kinds of colors and patterns?
No, of course not, because I've already got a big standing fan and lights that actually work perfectly fine, and are also more useful than a disco-ball type of bulb, but they're fun to play with, nonetheless.
Once I was almost tempted by one of those bowls that can't spill: the so-called "gyro-bowl", actually also because of a YouTube video:
But luckily, I was able to restrain myself...
@Zuljaras Very nice, man. Although having first seen that more pinkish under-layer, it does come across as a bit more dull in color, but definitely nice nonetheless. I also love the detail and figures on the anvil, as well as the stitching on the clothes of the Cyclops.
@Octane Maybe it's also because of me having a regular diet of spicy and/or garlic-flavored food, or it could also be my weekly intake of Bacardi & Coke. Then again: maybe they just don't like Axe deodorant...

@ThanosReXXX I can see all of those things influencing your body odour, so it's possible..!
And if you drink enough, the alcohol levels in your blood can actually kill the mosquito
I'm serious, my supervisor back then told me of a story of another researcher who was working in Africa. He forgot to fed the mosquitoes (which you do by sticking your arm in the cage for 10 minutes or so every day), went to a party, and decided to feed them anyway later that night. Next day they were all dead.
