  • Wtf did they honestly expect from you in that situation anyway? Do they really think you would come back from vacation to deal with that? From what I can tell, fixing it is barely beyond a T1 hekpdesk amount of knowledge, just an annoying process. Unless there’s more to it, I haven’t looked heard at the details but that’s the gist I’m hearing.

    But unless they’re going to triple my vacation length (in terms of paid days off in other words) and maxing out all my upgrade options for the next one I’ma have to say they can get bent.

    Basically they gotta pay for the best version possible of that trip (assuming there was a trip) and give me enough time to take 2 more.

    I ain’t taking a work call on vacation.







  • That never even occurred to me and I used to do this for non steam stuff all the time. I mean without the added learning curve of Linux but still.

    I’m gonna try that as soon as it finishes patching. If that works it would be so amazing. Almost too simple to actually work.

    Edit- It’s already working better than Lutris. It would have chunks of the UI just turn black sometimes. All the interactable bits would come back if I pointed the mouse at them, but there would be black squares and rectangles all over the place with Lutris and I just chalked it up to a weird quirk that forcing cross compatibility just brought up inherently. Never even questioned it.

    The requirement was always listed on the page.

    It not being enforced seemed to make people think that now they have a right to be mad about it.

    I just don’t see a case for this upset. What am I missing? The requirement was spelled out the whole time.

    All I see is people not reading the not-fine-at-all print and then being upset when the rule starts being enforced.

    I honestly don’t understand the problem here.

    Now why it was offered for sale in regions that can’t use PSN is a mystery. Those accounts should definitely be refunded beyond the “normal” refund window and Steam needs to pay attention to that kind of thing a lot better than this. They wouldn’t have necessarily known that the account wasn’t possible for them, so that’s totally understandable.

    But for those who are in a country that can get the account, I just don’t see a leg for them to stand on here.

    If I’m missing something here please tell me. I love using my pitchfork. But I just don’t see justification here specifically.




  • I did like that movie. I saw it years ago, but every time I tried to describe it to someone I couldn’t think of the name. I can’t remember how it ended exactly, but I’ll probably throw it on when I go to my brother’s place.

    We’ve been catching up with a lot of culture we missed out on due to being stuck in an overly religious household growing up. So we take time each (well most) Sundays to watch something we know Mom would hate. It’s therapeutic in a word kind of way.



  • I’m just now reviewing ancient comments and replies of mine. If you haven’t found out already, think of a site that’s similar to Facebook, but instead of making “friends” as the big draw, it’s all about your neighborhood and surrounding neighborhoods. So it’s filled with people asking about where to find “cheap reliable (insert service here like landscaping, drywalling, etc)”, suspicious people seen around the place which another commenter mentioned, so given the very white, very Karen-like audience is probably just a notice that some racial minority person was here. Like I mentioned, lost pets are a common post, there was recent 2 different companies going around digging fiber lines for Internet service, and then the predictable “has anyone switched, how do you like it?” type posts that follow.

    A lot of these people don’t know each other, so their only common ground seems, at least where I am, to be mostly just where they physically live, and the fact that they all love Trump.
