I tend to find myself most useful doing translations, imperfect as they might be. Of course, I've a tonne of screenshots that I probably never uploaded, because there were no obvious articles to put them in.
That makes more sense since you can actually speak more languages. I basically just try add screenshots or replace low quality ones, and update articles to improve their grammar if needed.

Yeah actually, if you disable bilinear filtering and take the screenshot at a native or integer scaled resolution, you can get a really nice screenshot.
I might try that myself then sometime

But I have to start somewhere on that Wiki first. Somewhere where I can put a really solid effort into.

Just think of a game you have plenty of knowledge in that might need help. Everything helps, even replacing bad grammar or adding some useful info to articles. I picked up a lot when working on Fifo's guide in terms of grammar.

Right now I'm drinking some tea and will have plenty for the day.
But next week I'm gonna drink beers found in France supermarkets, so probably Leffe / Grimbergen and maybe some fancier ones.

I remember a while back I thought I was drinking too much tea each day, so I considered switching to milk at work. I figured I'd be hated for using it all up though.

In the end, I think it was just the warm weather wasn't agreeing with the warm drink, so I'm fine again now.

Ok so maybe I’m not drinking Lana Del Rey levels of coffee but I still consider 4-5 cups a bit much. I have a nespresso compatible machine too and that doesn’t help lol.

I used to drink far too much coffee about 10 years back, even now I think I drink too much tea at times.

I think it would be ok in moderation but I was taking it too far back then, and I was a teenager.

There used to be a very good gaming bar in Paris, The Meltdown, but they changed location and now the place isn't as good as it used to be, especially for starcraft 2 fans, the golden age is past us in that regard. It's pretty expensive so unless there is some gaming action you really wanna do, student bars are a better experience

That reminds me of an ad for "Ask about Alcohol" that was on two years ago, where a woman came back from a mammogram with the all-clear, then said she wouldn't be celebrating with a drink because alcohol contributes to breast cancer. She says "so it's tea for me today". I'm still waiting for when they'll say tea causes breast cancer.

Yeah people overreact to be fair, if it was that dangerous to have one celebration drink then alcohol wouldn't be legal.

Bump.
Since it’s already December and getting close to Christmas and the end of this year I thought I’d ask around here but, what’s everyone’s favorite winter/holiday drinks?

Hot chocolate is delicious for sure

Eggnog of course too, but they don't sell lactose free eggnog here, and I'm pretty lactose intolerant. Maybe I could make my own though if it's not too difficult... it could be nice for our big dinner on the 28th. I'm pretty calorie conscious though, so I very rarely drinky anything with any calorie content, so I might still settle for jasmine tea or something.

A warm mug of hot choc with thick foamy whipped cream, marshmallows and caramel on top of all I need to carry me through December
