When i was a teen this happened to me. The date was arranged by a family friend and his nieces plus me and my friend to make it a double blind date. We decided to take the girls out to a cheap fast food place and pocket the rest of the money that was given to us. Except the girls ended up both being really cool so we agreed to go bowling after dinner. I kept in touch with one of them for a few years and we went out a few more times on our own.
Nothing to be embarrassed by imo. Sometimes we need to try new things and try to have a good time. Who knows, it may be better than you think.

Download was 600mb so hopefully that is reasonable enough

I poked around it enough to make sure it worked but it says to play it in one sitting so I’ve got to find a chunk of spare time maybe this weekend. I think I’ll like it from what I’ve seen though. Some puzzles to solve and the premise intrigues me

In case anyone is wondering, you can add the .exe to steam via games -> add non steam game.
Then once added go to game properties -> compatibility-> force compatibility -> proton
Idk if you need to force it or not but that’s what i did and it’s working

Thanks, it’s been many years since i played and couldn’t find much comments on it being an rpg or having rpg elements.
- Comment on RPGs that are optionally pacifist? 2 weeks ago:
Styx games have rpg elements and have shadow achievements which you do not kill anyone. Dishonored i believe have the same but i don’t think those can be loosely called rpg

- Comment on A free Nintendo Switch 2, two weeks' paid holiday, and a pile of money for Lies Of P devs after hitting sales milestones 1 month ago:
Literally the second paragraph.
As originally reported by South Korean tech site The Elec, staff have each received a previously arranged 10 million won bonus (about £5400) early, alongside two weeks’ paid holiday. This is on top of South Korea’s mandatory 15 days paid holiday for employees that have been with a company for more than a year.
Can we not do that annoying reddit thing where people don’t even bother trying to read the article?
- Comment on What's the e-reader you would buy if you were in the market? 1 month ago:
I have a Kobo. My wife has kindle. Kindle is better if you want kindle unlimited. Kobo is better for everything else as far as I’m concerned. Especially if you want to sideload your own books via calibre or just dropping them onto the device when plugged into your computer. My kobo hooks up directly with overdrive/libby for borrowing books from the library and does everything i need it to.
I don’t have a specific model to recommend though. Mine is nearing 8-10 years old and still working

I grew up house poor, and one of our closest family friends was very wealthy. I never quite got a gift that expensive but it did happen. Frequently got gifts that were $200 or more which is more than we could’ve returned. One year i got a gaming console and a bunch of games. That was my first console at a time my dad was unemployed for over a year.
If it bothered my parents, they never said anything. I do think if i had to return some of those gifts i would’ve been resentful. Not all people give gifts and expect the same monetary value in return. In fact that is part of the point for them because it is a gift that someone wouldn’t have gotten otherwise. I try to do gifts like that too except I’m not rich so i try to guess what something they need but don’t know about. Both can serve the same purpose of getting a gift that they wouldn’t have gotten themselves by removing a barrier (cost in one case, research on the other).
You have already asked the parents, the parents are cool with it, sons friend is cool with it, and your son is cool with it. I think you should be cool with it too. I do think this will make giving gifts to this friend difficult, so you’ll need to have your son lean in that second category. Or if sons friend is self aware about money he won’t be asking for $1k+ gifts from friendsq

What? You’re the one complaining because I didn’t agree with you.
I’m not complaining because you didn’t agree with me. I’m pointing out that you cared enough to reply (despite asking who cares) and I’m also pointing out that this saying who cares is a rude as fuck thing to open a conversation with.
You can disagree with me all you want, that’s your right. If you want to be rude then don’t be surprised when someone calls you out for it.
- Comment on Half-Life 3 is reportedly playable in its entirety and could be announced this year 3 months ago:
who cares?
Well, looks like I’ve got some upvotes and i got a reply for you so I’m guessing some people care. Tbh you just sound like a wet rag here and if you only want to hear about things you agree with then you can go talk to a mirror.
I’m fully aware some people are excited for HL3 whenever it comes out and some people are content to wait. I’m merely stating that the ship has sailed for me. Heaven forbid someone doesn’t consider gabe a golden god.

Doubtful. I have played 30 hours of video games this past year (bloodborne after finally being able to play on PC)

Honestly HL3 shouldve been out a decade ago for me to care. If it ever does release then im just not all that interested anymore.
