- Comment on Trying to find a messenger bag at Amazon 4 hours ago:
I stayed away for a few years, ended up buying a fair bit more frequently when doing up the house just due to cost and delivery but the site does look exactly like any other slop store now. It looks like chinavasion or alibaba.

I did get it to install after your comment but I cant login now because of some microG issue which is so weird.

Yeah it kept collapsing on the build for whatever reason, I moved to newpipe or pipepipe or something.
Miss the sponsorblock

I love building a huge base, something I never get the chance to online.

I was playing this last night I just pressed download and I got my ass handed to me 4/5 times.
- Comment on A blog re-used one of my Reddit posts as a genuine comment on their blog 2 weeks ago:
I dont see a major issue here unless reviewing was the blogs sole purpose. You reviewed a product and someone else said “as per this revie by xyz”. They credited and quoted you. This is the foundation of discourse.
- Comment on Is lemmy dying? 2 weeks ago:
I do wish it was as funny as a younger reddit, I used to be bowled over reading comments. I fesr we have lost a spark from all the fuckery of the world.

There were some pieces mentioned on waveform about its set up being out of box ready to be turned on by tv remote and those few console like bits that people like me wouldnt know how to do if we built.

Should I get a steam link? Not entirely sure of its purpose but those words look good

Yes

I dont know, I have heard valid complaints but the western setting doesnt allow for much other than bandit themed random encounters and favours. There are other more out there ones that hint to larger things like time travel etc.
- Comment on Over 47% of Stop Killing Games Signatures Have Already Been Verified 1 month ago:
Its funny people downvoted you for being the very thing they ae pointing out to you existing.
Its is just a comic that makes the point that not everyone knows what seems common to you and while there is significant overlap in most peoples knowledge people should take delight in being the ones to bring otherwise common knowledge to those who do not yet possess it.
- Comment on How do Ghostwriters work? Does the person the book is about say to the writer I will give you 2 or 20 percent of the sales or is it a 50 50 split? 1 month ago:
Unless you are a complete retard and manage to negotiate the worst deal for yourself possible and give royalties to your ghost writer. The art of the deal.

Game - year - critic/user score
Deadly Alliance - 2002 - 79/73 Deception - 2004 - 81/80 Shaolin Monks - 2005 - 77/87 Armageddon - 2006 - 75/80
Mk9 - 2011 - 79/83 MKX - 2015 - 83/77 MK11 - 2019 - 82/43 MK1 - 2023 - 83/65
The user score has not cracked 80 in 14 years. My point with that game was people were excited for a new MK game after a largr gap. In a two year period they released their three highest rated games since they moved to consoles.
- Comment on Avatar Legends: The Fighting Game - Official Announcement Trailer 1 month ago:
Disagree on all fronts. The competitive piece is one aspect, they could try new game modes that are not just reskins and points like MK Karting, Chess, Konquest, etc.
The modern games all under perform against the ps2 games on metacritic. The only modern one to crack 8.0 or higher is a fourteen yesr old Ps3 entry which had a lot of fanfare as the brsnd returning and was not shit.
- Comment on Avatar Legends: The Fighting Game - Official Announcement Trailer 1 month ago:
Deception Krypt was the best. The rest are shallow hybrid konquestd.
The best MKs had multiple play modes liie Konquest. The push to online pushed me out.
- Comment on Xbox consoles and games will no longer be sold at Walmart and Target, according to employees 1 month ago:
Nintendo suck, they always have. I have always heard the xbox v ps battle coming down to hardware and exclusives but truly Nintendo live and die by Mario et al.
I have a switch, a covid gift and I could not stand their store shovelware or predatory subscriptions so I only ever bought second hand and have now taken to high seas. They suck.
Playstation and Cbox are close behind too.
- Comment on Avatar Legends: The Fighting Game - Official Announcement Trailer 1 month ago:
I bought MK Deception at launch, it had multiple different play modes, a lot of characters and a new incredible sequel MK game came like the next year and another year after that an entire new game with every character ever.
3 complete distinct games that pushed the envelope in 3 years without DLC. New MK sucks, just looks more polished and people think it should be priced with RDR2 AND get the season model?
You are defending greed to the detriment of art.
- Comment on AMD and Sony’s PS6 chipset aims to rethink the current graphics pipeline 2 months ago:
The PS3 was revolutionary just difficult to shift to programming.
That said a industry in saturated to declining stages of life should probably not make their product less accessible to those giving it value.
Everyone still tried to make it work on PS3, I cant imagine that drive will be there for the ps6 era.

- Comment on Why do i tip my bartender $2 per drink and per bar food order but 20% when I order food from a waitress? Am I tipping wrong? 3 months ago:
Pretty sure the boss cant take tips legally speaking. Tax the income, let the business survive based on its ability to cover its costs.
- Comment on Why do i tip my bartender $2 per drink and per bar food order but 20% when I order food from a waitress? Am I tipping wrong? 3 months ago:
You left out the part that is actually being tipped for, bringing the food to you. The chefs are salary.
People should be able to go out and buy thenfood at the prices listed.

Its insane, I hated visiting there because tipping is so weird and ingrained like something theyncant explain. People will tell you its simple just do x, other say yeah well I do y, and the next I will only do y if abc otherwise I omly give x.
I just overpaid for everything there and considered it expensive and weird
- Comment on IGN Boss Leaving After Six Years Following Latest Mass Layoff 3 months ago:
I cant specifically remember what IGN did to make me avoid it. There was a revoly.on reddit years ago that stuck with me.
They also rank shit games high and are a but boring, but I think maybe there was a lot of ads or something.

If you were replying with an email address odds are he was not getting it due to the site actively trying to keep people on their site.
