Honestly thats my experience with most codes, in general.

Which is why those deal sites that give you codes are ultimately pointless, especially since they started making super specifically regional codes and other excessively extreme limitations that render it useless for everyone but one random guy that lives in a blue barn to the north east of a pig farm.

Oh, another MegaLag video about the honey situation.

Last time this happened, LTT had a psychotic meltdown and sic’d his base on GamersNexus for…reasons?

Comics were great too. Wish there was more of those too.

There was almost a TF2 show on adult swim, too… I dont remember all the details, I think it fell through cause Valve refused to listen to any input the CN execs had?

Hackers have already proven that your webcam can be activated and monitored without the indicator LED even turning on.

If hackers are capable of it, you know the CIA have been doing it for even longer.

man… I really wish valve would go back and make new Meet The videos… or just TF2 videos in general. The first ones, like Heavy, got so ripped off compared to later ones like the Pyros

the orange box wasnt released along side any steam hardware? that i can recall at least.

Nah, it’d bring prices crashing down as the market gets flooded with all the used hardware from the AI data centers being cleared out and auctioned off in bulk lots by bankruptcy courts and debt collectors, leading people to buy them by the truck loads and put on ebay for pennies on the original retail dollar.

Orange Box 2, Which is a computer and contains no sequels to anything that was in The Orange Box

Which isnt unprecedented… they did the same thing with Alyx and Index, didnt they?

Temple of Trials was 100% executive meddling.

Executives demanded a tutorial level, and thus the temple of trials was forcibly conjured into existence against everyone elses insistence and desire.

its the only black mark on a otherwise fantastic game…unfortunately its right at the start and sours to many people on the greater game.

Yep. Have no reason to trust it does what it says it does. Only way to prove that is for someone to dig into the browser while its running to debug/investigate/etc, things that are way above most peoples capability.

and even if it does what it says it does, no reason to believe that it wont default to on with the next update.

the problem is they mingle stock from every source into one pile with no discernable way to identify what came from where.

the exploding power supplies forced into bundles are what keep me away. cant return the catastrophically failed PSU without returning everything else, either. total scam.

Newegg is a fucking open septic pit.

Fred sold it off to some chinese acquisition company and its almost a fucking scam now at this point.

amazon has been getting less generous with the returns for years now.

Especially if you have more than a few returns per year.

Yes. If you sell on amazon, and have amazon fulfill the shipping… you ship your stuff to amazon, and its just put in teh big pool with all the other items of the same kind.

Even returns get put back into the pool.

its the absolute most pants on head stupid fucking way possible to manage inventory to the point that shit like this seems almost intentionally designed for rather than a consequence of.

Which is why anytime you order anything from amazon, you should record the entire box to show its untampered with, then film the entireity of the opening and confirming everything inside is actually inside.

THere was a famous case of a guy who bought a 10 thousand dollar camera and got a box of rocks, and amazon sent him a replacement and got a box of bricks, before finally getting the camera on the 3rd try… I think recording his second opening saved him from having amazon call him a scammer.

heres some of them, I’m pretty sure there was more.

the best part of all of it…is the reveal twitter had a couple weeks ago, where they put access location and registration location as publicly visible…for all of 5 minutes, revealing the fact that most big head conservative twitter accounts are foreign controlled psyop/propaganda outlets.

Crazy how the right wing just absolutely ignores that 98% of all the big totally patriotic american twitter accounts telling them what to do and how to feel come from russia, belarus, etc etc.

I just find it hilarious that the top/right/left toolbar was possible in windows 95/98/ME

but its to much of a technical problem to do today.

I guess thats what you get with AI doing all your coding…

I’m on linux because of Microsoft
