Watch New A Beginners Guide To Snuff (2017) Online

How We Made Two Twitter Bots Become Friends. Last week, we kicked off our roundup of Weekly Upgrades with Prime Day purchases, hydration, and tossing out unnecessary cosmetics.

This week, our editors caved in to the savings of the monthly unlimited Metro. Card, bought both indoor and outdoor house slippers, ramped up our photo editing tools, and perhaps most importantly, initiated a conversation between two very nerdy Twitter bots. What upgrades did you make this week? Let us know in the comments. Melissa Kirsch, Editor- in- Chief.

This week I paid $1. Metrocard. My approach to paying for the NYC subway has always been lazy—I put $8. Metrocard and watch the balance go down with each trip I take. When I have about $4. I put another $8.

You can buy certain U.S.-to-Europe flights for as low as $99 via Icelandic low-cost airline WOW Air, which recently expanded to four Midwest cities.

Seven days later, this year’s Summer Games Done Quick speedrunning marathon has come to an end, but not before raising $1,760,400 for Médecins Sans Frontières.

I will travel to three different supermarkets to save a quarter on yogurt. I scrutinize my cell phone bill for pesky hidden fees. Yet I’ve been content to pay full- price for transportation for the past decade. Because it’s less than $1.

This week I got a new dermatologist, after years of putting it off. I’m a pale redhead, so it’s pretty important for me to get my skin. Fire Emblem’s greatest heroes get their Musou on when Fire Emblem Warriors for Nintendo Switch launches October 20. It’s the latest step in Koei Tecmo’s plan to.

As if the subway costs less if I pay for it in smaller increments!)If I take 4. I’ll use 4. 0 just going to and from work) the price of the unlimited- ride Metrocard pays for itself. And if I take more than 4. This may be the final bit of incentive I need to give up my burgeoning Lyft habit.

Now I just have to make sure I don’t lose the Metrocard. I was convinced that an app was where tasks went to die, and that in order to keep my various obligations front and center, I needed to employ a notebook and pen—you know, the kind of thing you lose all the time and then find three weeks later, at which point you try to decipher your handwriting and eventually give up.

Not surprisingly, I have not been the most organized. This was fine when I was a full- time creative and my disorganization was expected and adorable.

My days of disorganization have ended, for I have downloaded Wunderlist, a simple and elegant to- do list app that doesn’t require any time to set up and/or comprehend. I can compose neat and comprehensible lists for everything I have to do in every aspect of my life. I enjoy the satisfying “ding!” as another to- do gets to- done. I’m not up at night wondering about what I don’t know I’ve forgotten and who might be mad at me for reasons I can’t even guess. Wunderlist has all kinds of features I’ve barely had the time to look at, and maybe some day I’ll get to those, but right now I’m just deeply enjoying its simple joys and choice of backgrounds. They belong together.

Virginia K. Smith, Managing Editor. This seems ridiculous—at least for me, a person who eats toasted things quite frequently—but for the past few years I’ve been making do without a toaster. Instead, I’ve just been putting bread or English muffins in the oven on broil, then fishing them out when they seem done, occasionally burning my hand in the process. Last weekend I went to the (heavenly) new Target in Downtown Brooklyn, and among many, many other things, bought a new toaster. It was not expensive, and it produced the fluffiest, most evenly toasted English muffin I’ve eaten in years. I have absolutely no good explanation as to why I didn’t do this sooner.

There’s more to a travel photographer’s kit than a camera body and a few lenses. Here are the. I’m a pale redhead, so it’s pretty important for me to get my skin checked annually, and it feels good to be back on that wagon. Patrick Allan, Staff Writer. I bought a used i.

Pad pro to start doing all of my photo editing on. Using an apple pen, I can make very small, careful selective edits on certain areas of a photo. Also, it feels a bit more fun and intuitive to me, so I’m more inclined to actually do it.

Overall it has made my editing process more efficient and enjoyable. Claire Lower, Staff Writer. I got some house slippers, and they are my new favorite thing. They’re very fuzzy and soft and they keep stuff from sticking to my feet, which is a huge pet peeve of mine. But best of all, they are not shoes. Michelle Woo, Staff Writer I also just bought slippers. Patio slippers for guests.

I keep them in the patio. I kept hitting the paywall every month, so I decided to just pay $6 for the 1. I love it. I’m reading it a lot more, and I don’t feel guilty for clicking on shorter pieces or not finishing articles that don’t really interest me. Since having the subscription, I’ve gotten a lot more familiar with their columns, and I’ve been able to read about everything, from Carly Rae Jepsen preforming in Canada to Elon Musk’s hyperloop.

Plus, I got a New Yorker tote bag that everyone seems to be carrying (and that I’m still slightly embarrassed to).

Similar to its sister- marathon hosted in the winter, Awesome Games Done Quick, the phenomenon has become a grass- roots organized cultural touchstone for many in the gaming community.

Hundreds of people get together in a hotel conference room and play their favorite games really fast, while hundreds of thousands more watch them do it online. Book- ended by a new and old fan- favorite, Nie.

R: Automata and Earthbound, the event included everything from expert runs through Super Monkey Ball and Super Mario 6. JRPGs while explaining their intricate inner workings. Right before the last run of the event, a special run by Azorae featured the speedrunner completing Portal 2 in co- op mode all by himself. With two mouses, two monitors, and no hesitation, it was something amazing to behold (especially for anyone who’s struggled just to beat the game alongside another competent individual).
