I’m in this comment and I’m indifferent about it.

That doesn’t mean I have “$400 value of games I’ve never played.”

I’d argue that what you pay for a game and the market value are two different things. The statistic is definitely misleading. The headline should read:

Steam users purchased games they haven’t played valued at $19b.

I’d say it’s pretty rare for people to pay full value for loads of games, i.e. I agree most unplayed games came in bundles, or were gifted/purchased at massive discount.

Update on 'Best "convertible" or 2-in-1 device to run Linux on?' (Minisforum V3 first impressions) (lemmy.world)

So about 2 months ago I made this post about looking for an iPad replacement that runs Linux. I said I wasn’t in a rush, but after thinking about it ever since and seeing the Minisforum V3 go on sale for just $1000, I pulled the trigger....

What crawled in your coffee and died this morning? It’s attitudes like this that stop people from wanting to switch to linux. Someone considering it will scroll through, see you being a dickhead, and go: Well…if this is what the community is like, idk if I want to try linux…

Check yourself pal. You’ve got a shit attitude, and you’re doing no one any favours.

How’s my piles? They’re a bit sore, but I’m hoping the cream is brining them down a bit…

It basically is named c/falsehoods, it’s shitposting, I don’t get why this is so hard for you.

Sorry my dude, but according to this they are.

There are two species of black widow spider in Canada: the western black widow found in parts of BC through to Manitoba (mostly restricted to areas close to the southern Canada-U.S. border) and the northern black widow in southern and eastern Ontario. On occasion, black widow spiders occur outside of their ranges by hitching a ride on produce such as grapes.

SturgiesYrFase,
@SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml avatar

No worries, if your heart is in decent shape, you’re actually not in much danger from a black widow, as far as I know. It’s mostly the elderly and the really young who die from their bites these days.

I’m from Vancouver, and there was definitely a few that lived out back of my dad’s house when I was a teen. TIL my dad’s house was a supermarket!

Well…he’s definitely a better cook than my mum, but I’d say more like regular amount of food?

Edit: I’m so glad this is playable on my phone, I’ve got fuck all on the books for work today, so I know what I’m doing!

SturgiesYrFase,

Yep, that’s the guy

I’m also far left, absolutely vote. Living in a fascist dictatorship makes organising for change harder.

SturgiesYrFase,
@SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml avatar

Of course, and there’s people in the centre left that are pushing for a total change in the way the US is governed. There’s great and shit people everywhere.

what's your current linux distro?

wanting to hop into the world of linux on a dual boot method (one of my favorite games unfortunately cannot be run on linux at all, and it’s a gacha. I don’t want to gamble with my account being banned, so I’m keeping windows for it specifically.) this’ll be my second go at it, I used Pop!_OS briefly but had some issues...

SturgiesYrFase,
@SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml avatar

Ditto. Super easy setup, most stuff just works right off the bat. Super active community on the forum and high participation from the devs.

SturgiesYrFase,
@SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml avatar

I mean it’s close. The Cyberpunk ttrpg was released in '88 and ICP’s first album dropped in '89.

Buy me dinner first…I’m actually fine with like a bag of chips and a pint.

@SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml avatar

I had a load of friends that played back in the day, and they always wanted me to play with them, I tried 4 or 5 times to get into it, but getting harassment off the smurfs turned me off it. I wasn’t able to play long enough to get up to speed.

Because the USA is basically a reality TV show right now?

Here in the UK and (if I’m remembering correctly) back home in Canada, I have always been handed a print out of my prescription with a signature.

at least I haven’t accidentally killed anyone.

Yet, there’s still time, I believe in you.

Putting my tinfoil hat on here, but Sunak totally called the election because he saw the petition was gaining traction!

My wife used to work as a researcher in Westminster. She always laughs when she hears most conspiracy theories, as she knows first hand 90% of the people there couldn’t conspiracy their way out of a wet paper bag.

Long winded way of saying I should’ve put an “/s” on the end of my original comment.

Hey, that’s an inappropriate attitude, we’re an equal opportunity employer!

I mean, alcohol is controlled, otherwise there wouldn’t be a legal drinking age, or consequences for driving drunk, one might argue.

SturgiesYrFase,
@SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml avatar

I know, I was making a devil’s advocate argument.

SturgiesYrFase,

All good dude 👍

Stop, do not proceed with the unlifening of my entire family. Please, if you do it may awaken some mystical power within me that I have to read carvings on walls and talk to some old monks to use properly.

No mention of the 200+ Palestinians killed, including women and children.

Onto a boat, to immigrate to a slightly more sane country, right?

Right?

SturgiesYrFase,

That’s exactly what a bot would say!

I had thought maybe this was about Libertarian crypto bros, and was ready to laugh. This is less funny

SturgiesYrFase,
@SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml avatar

Yeah, like I said, less funny. I’m willing to laugh at the misfortune of crypto bros doing stupid things. Not willing to laugh at a nomadic people having their way of life destroyed.

SturgiesYrFase,
@SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml avatar

Like I said in a previous thread that ended up on this topic. There’s a special place in hell, with Satan from Little Nicky, a few pineapples and some lobsters to hang off these asshole’s nipples…

Not holding my breath, but crossing my fingers anyway…

SturgiesYrFase,
@SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml avatar

Sorry, but since it was put down as legal fees, it’s off the books, as it was covered up. I mean really, $250k is chump change, but only a moron hides their pornstar expenses…

SturgiesYrFase,
@SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml avatar

I actually don’t like them much. But they have made some proper jams, and I have mad respect for the music they made even though it’s not really what I’m into.

SturgiesYrFase,
@SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml avatar

If you think Emo kids had the kibosh on oversized hoodies, you clearly don’t know what comfort is…
Also, stop giving a shit what other people listen to. You’ll live a life with less stress.

Where booba?

SturgiesYrFase,
@SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml avatar

Yeah, I don’t get why people seem to think the media doesn’t know. They absolutely do.

SturgiesYrFase,
@SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml avatar

Well, won’t that be embarrassing for them.

You…you’re a goddamn genius

Me at age six, at Star Trek: The Experience (startrek.website)

Here is me at Star Trek: The Experience in Las Vegas, Nevada at the Hilton. This was 1997 (spring or summer). I got to go on The Klingon Encounter (which may have been the only ride-type attraction at the time). The line to enter was lined with status of Borg (First Contact had just come out the previous November)....

I always wanted to be a Klingon warrior when I grew up, and this mfr had it clinch at six…smfh
