opux030, in Be honest, do you still use reddit?

I open the app out of muscle memory a few times a day, infinity still works somehow, but most of my subs have been closed/dead now anyway so not really.

Morphior, in Be honest, do you still use reddit?

No, I uninstalled Boost and Infinity about a month ago and haven’t looked back.

manwithabox, in What movie did you rewatch most often?

Grumpy Old Men:)

DubiousInterests, in In which game did you spend the most hours?

Arma 3 and that is mostly “Escape From” as it’s an easy drop in game mode. Although I think I still have way more hours in Europa Universalis 4 but that isn’t counted for… reasons.

Also I swear my hours used to be way bigger years ago. I am not crazy right? Like only 170+ hours in TF2 I have definitely played that way more.

Hackers and Grosse Pointe Blank. Watched it almost every night to go to bed for years on VHS.

Grosse Point Blank is not my favourite film of all time. But it’s the only one I’ve ever been able to honestly give a perfect 10/10 score.

The story, the cast, the script, the pacing, obviously the soundtrack, there is just not a single flaw I can find.

Isn't Grosse Pointe Blank from around '98 or '99?
That's when VHS was on its' very last legs. I think my first DVD player was from around 2001, by that time the graph line of DVD rising and VHS falling had already intersected, and this was in Mexico, I'm not sure when other parts of the world made the transition, say in the US, Europe or Japan it happened earlier.

dubble_deee,

Hackers is a great choice, it’s so cheesy but it just draws you in and completely suspends your beliefs. Every character is likeable and the lines are so well delivered, man now I got to rewatch it. Terminator 2, hackers, and Pokemon 1st gen probably made more SDEs than any stem outreach program.

JasSmith, in How do you cheer yourself up after a rough day? Or a rough year?

I have a plan for what I consider to be my happy place: retirement. Whenever I feel down I look at my plan and consider what small step I could take to get even closer. It helps me step back from the immediate feelings and focus on the longer term goal. No one is going to help me reach my goals. Only I can do that. Accepting this and seeing progress is so satisfyingly empowering.

Downvote = other people probably should ignore this post. It isn’t likely to do any good for them. Upvote = hey, everybody! Look at this!

chk232, in Be honest, do you still use reddit?

Logged out, sometimes I use rif to check on some subreddits.

Not going to delete my 9 year old account because if I do that they will keep all the comments.

nefonous, in Be honest, do you still use reddit?

I completely switched to lemmy for my random scrolling. But the main community for a game is still there so sometimes I keep lurking that subreddit only (exclusively from pc)

I watched Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon on VHS so much, it wore out the tape.

Logical, in Be honest, do you still use reddit?

Since I started using Lemmy, not much. I am mostly on here now.

busturn, in do you guys shop on places like aliexpress/Temu and if you do what items have pleasantly surprised you?

Keep in mind that a lot of your local marketplace sellers just order rebadged stuff from alibaba. I’ve found literally the same electronics i’ve bought locally on aliexpress for like half the price.

yuunikki,

Is alibaba a different site than aliexpress?

busturn,

Alibaba is basically just wholesale aliexpress, most sellers have a minimum order quantity and have clear pricing scale depending on your order.

yuunikki,

So pretty much the Sam’s club of aliexpress?

Never really used it that much and I’ve been much more active in Lemmy than ever in Reddit.

However, if I have problem that need a quick answer, I usually search Reddit. This in not because it is somehow amazing, but because Google searches suck nowadays. Typing Reddit into the search query usually brings out the answer I need instantly.

swnt, in In which game did you spend the most hours?
@swnt@feddit.de avatar

Life.

9 months until your game finally goes beyond loading screen. You pay it permanently and cannot stop playing it - and if you intentionally stop playing, you can’t play again. No savestates - which sucks for exploring alternatives. You also don’t get asked whether you want to play or not as well - you just get thrown in. Also there is no character selection screen and you start with whatever stats, region, context, etc. you rolled.

However, it is definitely quite interesting and gives you really very realistic experiences. Did I mention, that it’s much better in its immersion than all the AR/VR stuff and co? You even can properly smell and taste stuff there!

JustCopyingOthers, in What goes good with American Cheese?

Works well as a lasagne topping.
