My old housemate was heading to Amsterdam for the weekend with some friends and the one friend stayed over at our flat the night before so they could leave early and I shit you not she was asking what drugs to take with them. Through the damn airports.
We had to tell her to not try anything because she will most likely get caught and she’ll most likely be able to get what she wants over there.
These people exist.
I thought it was just me, I thought something wrong was going on in my Windows installation.
EA app is also dead in the water for me, my library is not loading. It knows I have 4 games installed but all the names and icons are blank.
Can’t even launch the games directly from their own exe.
I remember reading somewhere that they are not making money on their store, losing it.
Wondering if a timed exclusive brings in more cash compared to their normal sales, even if it’s still a loss.
The free games can’t be helping out either.
Most of my gaming friends refuse to buy games from Epic or use their launcher.
They’d rather wait for the timed exclusive to expire and buy the game on their platform of choice.
I’ve bought maybe 2 games on Epic because a friend wanted to play it with me at launch. It was Borderlands 3.
But never again, I finished BL3 solo seeing as my friend played with me about 3 times and he never touched it again.
I do collect their free game every week, my Epic library is quite big now and I may play a game from there time to time but I hate the idea of a platform exclusive.
I’d like to know if they are making more money with timed exclusives seeing as nearly nobody I game with wants to buy from them.
All I see is *******
This happened at my first job.
While walking past an office I got called in, the headmaster’s secretary and the music teacher were struggling and told me the flash drive they had does not work.
So I take a look and pull the flash drive out of the Ethernet port and plugged it into a USB port and told them they need to plug it into the correct port.
The look on their faces.
But then I admitted to them that I had never seen this happen before and that I didn’t know that the Ethernet port was the right width to take a flash drive.
I mentioned this can be done on a Discord server I am on and nobody would believe me so I just told them to give it a try. They probably think I was trolling to this day.
I come from a country with school uniforms and I hated it.
Felt more like a way to control us and/or it was all about the schoool’s image.
Our hair had to follow certain rules, short, no colour, no gel.
It gets a bit worse.
This happened in November I believe, the footage was only recently released.
They had the guy handcuffed and in the back of their patrol car, officer Doofus mistook the sound of an acorn hitting the roof of his car for a gunshot. He then did a few Dark Souls rolls while screaming shots were fired and emptied his mag into the back of his own car where the suspect was being held.
He screamed that he was shot and scrambled for cover, crawling in the street while screaming and firing more I believe. His partner hearing this also opened fire on the car.
He then admitted he didn’t seem to be hit, maybe hit his vest and he felt weird.
His partner fully believed her partner had been hit the way he was acting.
Are these open or closed backed headphones?
The closed backed ones can create a lot of pressure and hurt your ears and possibly give you a headache.
My current headphones are open backed and way more comfortable compared to my last which were closed backed.
You can hear outside sounds easier with the open backed ones though, but for me that is worth it.
The IT manager at my previous job used this as a security feature.
People thought that because he was the IT manager he could just get another mouse, so they’d just take his when they left their mouse at home and never return it.
So he got a left handed vertical mouse even though he is right handed.
Nobody steals his mouse now because it is vertical and cannot be used in the right hand.
Had to look for it as well, hit “See More” below the Twitter/Xitter post.

I miss my Voodoo 2 3000 AGP card.
I got an ABIT Siluro/ Geforce 2 MX400 after that and Diablo 2 ran worse, the frame rate tanked. I was gutted.
Back in the day I tried to play Morrowind but every time I moved my mouse the game would crash, I started removing hardware until I found out it was my soundcard giving me issues, was an old ISA slot. Got a PCI soundcard after that and no issues.
Those were the days.
