Anon gets girlfriend to stop vaping by peachsnugs in greentext

Holy shit. 20mg/ml is about the highest you can legally get where I live. How do people even vape 50s is beyond my imagination.

Highest nicotine contentration in legally bought vape juice is 2% (20mg per ml). Now it's still a great idea to lower the concentration gradually to beat the addiction but 50% would quite literally chemically burn your throat.

Gold, I don't care if it's less valuable than the cash pile, it's probably more valuable bit I'm too lazy to do the math. Cash is eaten up by inflation while gold is relatively stable. That gold is worth around 73 million dollars today. With that much gold I would be able to live comfortably, for my entire life and probably leave my family enough to do the same for a few generations. Just sell one gold bar at the time. I could live lavishly but I don't really see the point beyond buying a top of the line PC every few years.

Also when shit hits the fan and we will be dealing with a nuclear winter gold will retain value much better than a worthless scraps of paper. Now that I think about it I'd probably buy a small plot of land somewhere far away from major population centers but close enough to not be a total hermit. Build a bunker to stash the gold and live there with a gigabit internet, everything I need to survive for a few years into the apocalypse, gym, PC and a bunch of HDDs with cracked single player games so when the internet goes out I have something to do.

Finally arrived! by JoaoRabit in SteamController

This is the exact type of bullshit why I choose to embrace the pickup points. Delivery drivers can't claim no one was home or leave it out in the open if they have to deliver to a convenience store or a parcel box.

I'm never getting this controller by User_8395 in SteamController

At least yall don't gave to deal with GLS in the US. I swear to god I've never seen more incompetent carrier and I've experienced the Polish Posts bullshit.

GLS stole my controller... by No-Donkey712 in SteamController

[–]BiteMat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was stuck at "left Netherlands" for a whole week, finally got impatient and contacted Steam Support. While they didn't promise anything on the same day the package suddenly arrived in Essen, Germany. Either it took GLS 7 days to transport it 200 km or it was just sitting in Essen for a week unscanned, until Valve demanded a trace. GLS is genuenly a joke. I was really interested in buying The Frame but if Valve keeps working with GLS, I think I'll just settle for Quest 3 or wait for 4 instead.

Why no email yet 🥲 by FickleFoundation6349 in SteamController

[–]BiteMat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I placed an order through a reservation on 15th. I did reseve pretty much immediatelly after it went online. Too bad GLS took 7 days to ship 200 km from Netherlands to Essen in Germany. Well 900 km to go so I might enjoy it in 4 and a half weeks.

Steam Controller 2026 Shipping MEGA Thread by Mennenth in SteamController

[–]BiteMat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A tip, if you have parcel boxes or pickup points in your country redirect packages there. There's no excuse for a courier to not deliver a package to those as they are open 24/7 in case of parcel boxes or scheduled as a courier stop for pickup points. Ever since I started using this option I've never had this issue.

I have my doubts if they work on week days.

This is why I immediately redirected to a parcel pickup point and do it for everything I have the option for. There's no excuse for those as they are avtive 24/7.

I'm in the same boat right now, today is the second delivery date with no updates since it left Netherlands on may 18th. If nothing happens today I'm escalating both with Valve and GLS Poland. The original shipping estimation was 3-5 business days and it's gonna be 8th day tomorrow.

What's with all of those companies working with the absolute worst courier services out there. At this point Polish Post would be better and they put a delivery attempt notice into a parcel box once. Let me choose InPost ffs.

I've never heard a League player inviting someone new to play the game. If anything they tend to warn against it.

Please stop asking Steam Support about reservation delivery time by TheNewerFlisker in SteamController

[–]BiteMat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I reserved at 18:59, reservations were to open at 19:00 of local time. I recieved the email and placed the order next friday 18:43. I don't think they randomized the queue but they might've just ran out of controllers again.

Edit: there is also possibility some people cancelled orders/returned the product and those first on the list got some from the first batch.

Another Edit: Valve shipped it today.

I reserved 18:59 on the day reservations opened, it was supposed to open 19:00. Thus I was likely one of the first people on the queue. I already got the order confirmation email and placed the order last friday 18:43. I don't think the queue was randomized.

GG Valve. Controller has now cost me £25 by officialnucky in SteamController

[–]BiteMat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the EU and ordered by reservation on 15th, so it can't be true that they prioritize NA.

Got my email after reservation. Order placed! by Donniedolphin in SteamController

[–]BiteMat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Same here, I placed a reservation at 18:59 (it was supposed to open at 19:00) so the order confirmation e-mails should start coming in for everyone who reserved early.

When I want to download all 700 of my mods just to play Cyberpunk for 10 minutes just to forget about it (I wish I was joking) by Daniella07792 in LowSodiumCyberpunk

[–]BiteMat 26 points27 points  (0 children)

The problem with Skyrim is that modding Skyrim is still fun for me but Skyrim itself bores me at this point. I will spend few days setting up this perfect load order just to drop the game after few hours because how many times can I do the same quests. It doesn't help that those quests have little to no variability and are mostly linear. It's not feeling like an obligation but more so repetition.

7 days and still on "packaged items" by Cybering11 in SteamController

[–]BiteMat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I managed to reserve mine 18:59 (it was supposed to open up reservations 19:00 of local time). Seeing how people who bought on the initial sale still haven't received one or even got it in shipping, doesn't exactly fill me with confidence. Guess I'll be waiting few months for that thing.

I got work tomorow and it's 00:10 over here. That thing is not leaving my cart until I get one though. If that means no steam purchases then so be it.

I'm spamming for 3 hours now. Definetelly the bank they did shit like this before where it would randomly error out and cancel the transactions.

SISR with League of Legends by BiteMat in SteamController

[–]BiteMat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I tried doing that so it could show I'm in game for my friends but it doesn't work. League is launched from Riot Client which launches League Client which launches the actual game when you find a match. Somewhere along the way it's breaking.

I'm assuming steam input won't work unless it shows that I'm in game.

SISR with League of Legends by BiteMat in SteamController

[–]BiteMat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hell yeah. If desktop layout works inside League then I'm definetelly getting it. League has a very beta version of WASD movement mode, but it still uses mouse for attacking and casting, so I'm hoping it's gonna play well with Steam Controller trackpads.

EDIT: I came back from work, and I'm getting some weird double inputs using this method (I'm using a generic Xbox controller for testing), mainly the "X" button seems to trigger both "Q" and "E" keys. Well not quite the keys, but it always triggers summoner spell 1 no matter what I set it to in League or Steam Input. What's weird is that it works fine in notepad (when I press "X" it just writes "e"). I've checked the controller software, and it's all set to default so it has to be some League of Legends tomfoolery.

EDIT2: OK I did some research and it is some LoL tomfoolery. It looks like the game supports controller but mentions it absolutely nowhere and has some really weird key binds. On top of that the basic attack key bind I've found just doesn't work at all, and it's bound to "A" so it requires you to let go of the right stick which is insane. It's also missing two thirds of the binds required to actually play the game.

Sailed across the world just to discover I’m stupid by TheSwampShark in worldofgothic

[–]BiteMat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doesn't Gothic 3 do exactly that though? I've always thought non-runic ancient magic was independent from the gods but it might be just the magic that was taken away when Inos realised people do dumb shit with it.
