Blackmist, to piracy in I feel like the Steam Deck is the best proof of Gabe Newell's quote that "piracy is a service issue."

Yes, physical sales are miles better than digital. Even better if you shop used.

If you think Steam sales are still great, then you’re either young or have a crap memory. Used to be the case that 6-12 month old games went for 75% off and often more. The flash sales died and so did the bargains.

Now Steam is just ancient games at full price until the next sale so they can claim “60% off” again so it matches the price of a PS5 disc on Amazon or wherever.

Blackmist, to memes in It's all downhill from here

Bloody gays, causing the rent to go up! 😠

Blackmist, to memes in I just had to throw out a batch that I'd barely started.

Green. Green. Green. Green. Black.

Blackmist, to piracy in Louis Rossman/FUTO's YouTube app, GrayJay, now supports Sponsorblock... and shames you if you use it

I can only assume they’re some sort of front for a cartel because I’ve never met anyone that actually plays it.

Blackmist, to gaming in You know what? I'll just wait...

If you hum The Final Countdown while it’s loading, it’ll let you play original Vice City instead!

Blackmist, to piracy in Old Manifest V2 Chrome extensions will be disabled in 2024

Good luck with that. All browsing on iOS is Safari, so likely all the FF extensions would need to be remade from scratch.

Blackmist, to movies in Box Office: ‘The Marvels’ Gets Grounded With MCU’s Second-Lowest Opening Day Ever

The series would have been fine had they not been needed to understanding what is happening in the movies.

Cue me wondering where I’d missed that Elizabeth Olsen is a villain again in Dr Strange 2.

I can deal with watching a movie every few months on the off chance that some of them are entertaining popcorn guff, but I’m not sitting through endless shows where you see 10 hours of characters you don’t care about and their extended families you also won’t care about.

Blackmist, to memes in Add-on: same password, same identity.

I think phishing is by far the most common way to get passwords.

I saw a guy at work fall victim to one. Looks like it’s from some customer he knows, links to document on Office365 or similar, enter username and password and swearing because it’s “lost them”.

I went, “What URL is that?”

He looked at his screen for a second. “Fuck.”

“How many passwords have you given it?”

“My work ones and my bank ones.”

“Better change those then, hadn’t you?”

Blackmist, to memes in Waaaaah shrimp fried rice has always been celebrated for its excellence

Apparently he wasn’t actually drunk during those out-takes.

He’d been filming something else the day before, it overran and they filmed until almost dawn. So he had some sleeping pills so he’d be refreshed before filming the adverts.

Unfortunately, and probably not unrelated to the sheer size of the man, they kicked in just as he was scheduled to start filming.

So that’s what you see. A man fucked up on barbiturates.

Blackmist, to memes in So many people still think its ok for them to do📱

I tried to avoid Amazon for a product the other week, by buying direct from the person who was selling through Amazon.

They had their own store.

The prices were 50% more than they were charging on Amazon.

Blackmist, to memes in Public Transit my beloved 😍

There does seem to be a high proportion of city dwellers wondering why somebody who lives four miles from the nearest shop that sells something more substantial than Budweiser and crisps would need a car…

Blackmist, to linux in Linux reaches new high 3.82%

Would that show up in browser stats though?

Steam Deck is neat and all but I’ve never thought of it as anybody’s main browsing device.

Blackmist, to lemmyshitpost in puzzling

Sounds like the boring voiced aliens from Mass Effect.

Blackmist, to programmer_humor in The Holy Trinity of JavaScript

You have to remember that the underlying principle of JavaScript seemed to be “never throw an error”, even if what it’s being told to do is weapons grade bollocks.

Blackmist, to lemmyshitpost in Bowl cut gang, rise up.

Top one looks like it’s from a Turkish barbers, but they photoshopped a kids face onto it because nobody would believe that Ronaldo had been there.
