I reinstalled TF2 about a week ago, so without actually checking, probably that.

Fuck, it's been "Megawho?" for years.

How much less bullshit PC players are willing to put up with compared to their console counterparts, apparently.

I suspect someone in accounting ran the numbers and decided they stand to lose more to reduced microtransaction sales than they would have gained via selling scraped data.

Though I agreed with you. It's still a win, but we have to be careful not to conflate this with Sony "caring".

So, at first install, I actually linked my account to a PSN account that I knew was banned due to a charge back on an unwanted purchase. At the time, I figured if I discovered that I can't play because my account is banned from PSN, I'd just refund on Steam. I feel I'll be very justifiably pissed if my account is now banned from playing retroactively, long after the refund window.

A 1080TI still plays every release at medium or higher settings. /shrug

Unless you're worried about 4k or VR, I wouldn't upgrade anyway.

On a related note, I'm very glad I pirated Starfield.

r/Canada is literally run with conservative propaganda efforts in mind. It's not surprised that any attempt to pull people out of the echo chamber is met with an instant ban.

This is actually a super fascinating example of the way data can be displayed in a technically correct way to lead the viewer to completely invalid conclusions.

The problem is the way we are told to treat adults as kids.

We go all the way through school repeatedly being told that the adults have the answers, they understand everything that we don't, they know how to tackle the things that seem to big for us, and, most importantly, they don't make mistakes.

So now that we're adults, even though we cognitively know by now that it was all bullshit, it's hard to turn that training around. We make mistakes, don't have the answers, and sometimes struggle with parts of the world that we'd expected would make sense by now. We know that the adults before us were no different, but it's been so long that it's hard to internalize that we, now, are just like them.

Your imposter syndrome is programmed. It's not your fault.

Fuck Doordash, fuck Uber Eats, fuck Skip the Dishes. These greedy motherfuckerswant me to pay a delivery fee, a "convinience fee", AND up charge me on my food, and act like triple dipping into my pocket isn't a fucking crime. Then they have the gall to tell me that waiting an hour and a half for my food while my driver sits in a random-ass parking lot to receive luke-warm food is acceptable delivery time and service and ask for a fucking tip.

And worse, no one wins! The restaurants hate it because they're paying fees out the ass and receiving hate for the delivery services failures, the driver's hate it because they're not being given a fair wage, and the end consumer hates it because they're paying literally 1.5x the cost of already inflating food prices! The only winner is corporate of whatever company you're using, all to save you a, what, 10-15 minute drive?

Fuck em', I will hop in my car and go pick up my food every single day of the week. I'm never too lazy to tell a bullshit service like those to go fuck itself.

Tankies mad they're being called tankies?

Drawing a comparison to the use of "woke" is fucking hilarious. Only one of those terms is actually an insult, and the insinuation that both of those terms are the same says a lot about their perspective.
