Brace Yourselves

Funny how even the small wave is enough to take down the city 🤣. I hope Lemmy can grow to be my primary time waster. There'll be downtime and hiccups, but I'm a patient man.

The math on unplayed Steam “shame” is way off—and no cause for guilt

I apparently have over $500 of unplayed games. However, looking at my library there's a lot that I've played through that it shows zero hours, whether I used a script loader because of mods or for some reason it just doesn't show that I've played the game (Bioshock series for some reason. I've played them all through).

I've also never payed full price for a game. Patient gamers unite! Just not right away.

Best way to get out of a Timeshare?

Reply in thread

My father did the same with a timeshare in Mexico. Every time he called to book a room they were full, even booking 8 months out. So he just stopped paying for it. They got mad and called him several times over the years.

Finally he said 'Fine, I want a room in 3 months time for 2 weeks. I'll even be pay all the owed fees.' "sorry we're full then" 'Ok, well then I'm never paying you a dime, stop calling me.' that was that.

As far as I know his credit was never hurt, but he's also got amazing credit so maybe it was enough to offset that hit.

Is it just me?

It's what happens with a small community. Interaction and discussion VS lowest common denominator humour for mass votes.

We all want Lemmy to succeed, but that only means that it'll turn back into reddit. It's the natural cycle of social media.

Just Went Live!

Sync for reddit was a great 3rd party app for browsing reddit. Since 3rd party apps were ousted from reddit the dev repurposed his app for Lemmy. I've been using it today and so far it is fantastic. There are some ads, but at the moment it's the best Lemmy app on the market as far as UI goes imho.

Just wash it right off

Every tankless I've used has been a piece of crap. Constantly breaking down. Heat surging and going cold in the shower. Outright just not heating water. All within 2 years of install. Never again. Tanks only for me from now on.
