Turns out in Elden Ring, you’re supposed to go left when you leave the initial starting area so you can pick up the ability of teleportation to bonfires.

Well, imagine my surprise learning that from friends 10 play hours later after going right and opening up a teleporting treasure chest to some crystal cave…

Here is a thread where someone asked this question a month or so back and a lot of people weighed in, myself included.

I am a kinesis advantage 2 enjoyer, myself.

Runner minutes from runners on gitlab online are limited to some certain amount according to some calculations… I dunno. But if you self-host your own runners, wherever they may exist (your own home lab in shell, in containers, in a k8s cluster, really a lotta options ) then you don’t pay anything to use your own runner minutes. I can tell you from experience they aren’t that difficult to get going and registered to your online gitlab workspace or self-hosted gitlab platform, simple matter of registering the runner with a token key given to you in the runner panel on gitlab, and providing it a TLS cert especially if you intend for the runners to interact with self-hosted container registries because then it will stop yelling at you.

I followed this tutorial which cuts the jeans to the proper length and then uses a sewing machine with a zig zag pattern to create the new hem. I had to go this way instead of reusing the original hem because I needed to shorten the leg by 4 inches and would have way too much fabric at the bottom of the leg if I kept the original hem or did one of those non-sewing tricks.

I used a marker to create the lines of interest as described in the video but uh… those lines didn’t wash out. Thankfully they’re hidden unless you really go looking for them but I’d suggest a quick trip to the craft store for tailoring chalk!

This has the fantastic parallel to Kintsugi. I also repair my own clothing like OP, but I just yesterday created a big horizontal tear in a pair of shorts I enjoy wearing and will try repairing them like you’ve linked here, it looks really nice!

I also have a rather difficult time finding decent jeans in my correct waist and length, so I’ve taken to hemming my own pants and while the first time was terrifying (I’m cutting off the bottom of a perfectly good pair of jeans what if I mess up!?) it turned out amazing and I look and feel SUPER confident in the altered pants. So I recoimmend to anyone to give hemming their own clothes a try, maybe starting with a pair of pants that you’ll repair like OP’s anyway, you can’t screw it up much worse anyway!
