Take! Control! (it will take a while to get there and understand)
- Comment on Why do I have to pay tariffs for importing the following stuff into the EU now? 3 days ago:
You get an extra 3€ tax by product category. I don’t know hotlw it’s categorized but could sum up quickly.
- Comment on Why do I have to pay tariffs for importing the following stuff into the EU now? 4 days ago:
That too but he/she referred to the limit so should know it. Also asking for what changed, that’s how we got here. But you’re right its not really consistent.

Temu, shein and AliExpress flooded customs over the breaking point, this is the reaction.
- Comment on Why do I have to pay tariffs for importing the following stuff into the EU now? 5 days ago:
Well, there’s mostly temu and AliExpress to blame for that. They gamed the system, now the rules got changed.
Sucks for me too but in general I agree it’s not okay to flood out customs over the threshold to (literally) ship garbage into the EU.
- Comment on Is SuperStation One worth it? 6 days ago:
Mister is very easy to set up tbh. Adding and curating games requires some effort.
Still, I’m always on the lookout for a more consolized version instead of the amateur looking sandwich.
- Comment on Is the 3DS worth purchasing despite it being "obsolete" today? 1 week ago:
Just… Don’t put too much on there and use fat32. Or was that solved at some point of time?
(I am aware exfat works but could really easily break a few years ago and was a bitch to redo, so fat32 was the safe choice)
- Comment on Is the 3DS worth purchasing despite it being "obsolete" today? 1 week ago:
I got an ambassador new 3ds for 150 or 200€ or so.
Even at that time I was very surprised. But that was an honest seller with a surprisingly nice attitude.
- Comment on Is the 3DS worth purchasing despite it being "obsolete" today? 1 week ago:
DS/3DS collector here. I collected when it was in the shops so not currently.
However I can tell you those handhelds are my favourites for several reasons. One being the awesome library. Moreso on the DS but I would prefer playing that on a DS lite to fill the screen with native resolution.
Have a look what’s there and if you’re interested and then go ahead. I can not give much insight into the rising price but I think it’s mostly social media and collectors, hidden gems and stuff like that. That’s making it public and many are looking into it too, causing rising prices.
For example I’d like to have 1941 for the supergrafx but at around 600€ it’s insane and really absolutely not worth it. I can recommend to just keep your eyes open, there are sellers who go against these trends and offer fair prices.
If you just want to play there are possibilities for 3DS with SD card.
- Comment on GTA: Vice City's writing was "awful," Rockstar co-founder Dan Houser says, but acting icon Ray Liotta "made it sound good" 1 week ago:
Yeah from the playability side saints row (volition) was always far more intuitive.
- Comment on I have to give a presentation in 15 minutes 1 week ago:
Don’t worry, your data is where you left it.
- Comment on Car bloat is causing parking problems in Singapore 1 week ago:
Yup absolutely, they are growing how cute.
No, what the fuck.

Why ist he in his room.
- Comment on *Proceeds to append an exclamation mark* 2 weeks ago:
I still stand by xkcd 936.
Since Noone can know which characters you used, you have to assume all/most. Throw one character in there to be safe, in the middle of a word.
- Comment on we live in a world where a pedophile is president. but things are only getting worse. is activism even worth it any longer? it seems like we've hit an apex or wall here. i feel like being selfish. 3 weeks ago:
I don’t see any chance in boycotts getting citizens out of this situation. The respect that they too are humans and of the same worth as the ruling class needs to be renewed.
- Comment on Title 5 weeks ago:
Well 5 minutes before I was just too far lost in my derailed thoughts to realize
- Comment on how can I identify problems i'm having 1 month ago:
Without more information: by knowing yourself. Understand your needs and then you can search for the roots of them.
- Comment on How does a game server differentiate between multiple clients on the same network? Do they even? 1 month ago:
I didn’t read everything to be fair but you do not only have destination IP and Port but also source IP and port in which case they’re separate connections even if the source IP might be the same.

Perception check!
- Comment on DLSS 5 comes with a massive 50-60% performance hit, so I hope you like lower frame rates with your dose of AI image enhancement 1 month ago:
Exactly for those reasons the last gaming notebook I bought (used) was all AMD. Comes with some caveats but it’s better than supporting Nvidia.
They’ve not been for the gamers for a long time
- Comment on Sony Implements New Customer Harassment Policy Following Backlash Toward Its Plans to Stop Making Physical Game Discs 1 month ago:
What a way to piss away all thst image building over two decades at least. They put so much effort in being at all the right events, the cool stuff.
Nintendo and Microsoft never were that good in this. Who would’ve thought they’d tear it all down themselves.
What a time to be alive.
- Comment on The German army is trying to attract recruits at Gamescom, the world’s biggest video game convention 1 month ago:
Yep, it’s very standard.
- Comment on Doorless showers just make a mess and everything ends up wet 1 month ago:
Well that’s just bad design. The opening is wrong so of course it’ll splash and the floor needs to be one level and tilted to the drain.
I’ve seen some really good ones that work

- Comment on A sign I'm getting old, I guess. 1 month ago:
That feeling that I don’t know where the files actually are… I never had that. I knew where I put my files.
But then SharePoint happened. And then onedrive. Is it shared? Where everywhere is it?
Of course you can look some of those things up. But is that information trustworthy?
- Comment on culture 2 months ago:
Ah, thanks. I can confirm I can recall facts as well as also replaying stuff in my head from any perspective I choose and modify whatever too.
The first sentence is also very interesting. It’s what autists and adhs people oft say, that our brain is experienced as own entity with things that are not to our liking but we have to obey its rules.
Fascinating!
- Comment on culture 2 months ago:
This is very interesting and fascinating to read. But I have to admit it’s not easy for me to follow.
Bluntly (which is a quirk of mine so please don’t be offended) I’d think all of what you mentioned are levels of imagination and mental state I use at will. But I am also very much aware of the possibility of me not being able to fully understand the implications hence throwing more things together than I should.
- Comment on How to deal with people who obtusely miss your point on Lemmy? 2 months ago:
Haha, touche I think. I’m confused as always (and my lemmy client even added to this now since the comment was too deep… Lol).
Yeah, same boat here with the difference is the last attempt burned me further and meatspace… Well, you know how it goes when leaving the house alone is too much of a strain nevermind meeting and interacting with people.
- Comment on How to deal with people who obtusely miss your point on Lemmy? 2 months ago:
Not unlikable, that’s important. You be yourself. Masking will put a heavy strain on you, find your people.
We don’t get much external positive reinforcement so the negative tends to stick and impact our self esteem, it’s a negative loop.
- Comment on How to deal with people who obtusely miss your point on Lemmy? 2 months ago:
For me and some others it’s obvious, for you it’s not. I got that and apologized to op.
Yeah OK we’re all autists. We’ll done.
