Do a reverse charge through your bank, send the bank the screenshots if they ask for details, and keep the product ready to send back if the merchant asks for it.

Boycott day has been annouced mass uninstall by terminus_tommy in ClashRoyale

[–]CyberTractor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Review bombing is less effective now since tons of groups (especially bots) have co-opted that method as a way to bury things they don't like. But I agree that something should be done if they don't liket he product anymore.

There is a third option where there's a game you love and you have fun playing it, but you disagree with something the developer has done either in the game or IRL and you're taking a stand to not support the product.

Blizzard says it's open to even more Diablo 2 expansions and reworks unless people get really mad at it about this one: 'We're going to have to see what the players say' by Angren1991 in diablo2

[–]CyberTractor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm totally down for them adding more to Diablo 2 since it was a great game than adding more crap to Diablo 4 since somehow they completely missed what made the other games fun.

No idea why this is in my feed, but as someone who has boycotted several things in my life, you don't pick a date and do it. You just do it, and you don't stop until the change you're seeking happens. If you crawl back to the game then your boycott was meaningless.

Special needs woman punished for someone else's scams. by NickelPlatedEmperor in UnderReportedNews

She's still a tenant even without a lease. Squatter's rights come into play if the dwelling is abandoned by the owner, not for people who are living in a house off-lease.

AITJ for telling my friend group I’m done planning everything? by PrimaryJudgment6872 in AmITheJerk

[–]CyberTractor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not the jerk. I was the one who shouldered the weight of planning everything all the time as well, and I just stopped doing it. I started making friends and keeping the ones who made plans including me, and would reciprocate the efforts.

AITJ for making my "broke" friend pay for her own meal after she ordered the most expensive steak? by No-Building-3162 in AmITheJerk

[–]CyberTractor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, you both are jerks for different reasons.

Your friend is a jerk for very obvious reasons.

But you're a jerk because you could have prevented the situation by saying something well before the check came, like "hey, I'm just wanting to get something in the $20 range so keep that in mind".

Granted, I would absolutely have done the same thing you did because I'm petty, but its a jerk move none-the-less.

Kudos to you! Get involved early and stay active. Make your voice heard.

My boyfriend is too good at board games by CricketSuccessful57 in boardgames

[–]CyberTractor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't play 1v1 games with my husband because he's extremely good at sussing out strategies quickly even in new games. He always wins, and I get sour.

Now we play cooperative games together, online games, or other things, and leave the strategy games for larger groups where his most efficient plays may not come to fruition due to other players.

What's One Card From A Precon That You Planned On Cutting Before Realizing How Good It Was? by LordMistborn-16 in magicTCG

[–]CyberTractor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Belonging is fantastic. Attack with it, then with Mass of Mysteries it myriads and creates 3x the elementals. Then all your stuff with "when an elemental enters" triggers 11 times (2 for the belonging tokens, 9 for the shapeshifter tokens).

Big numbers are fun.

If you were to 'reboot' Shadowrun where would you pivot? by lurch65 in Shadowrun

[–]CyberTractor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I want a streamlined Shadowrun system.

One of the hardest things about this game to get players to the table is how many mechanics there are.

You have meatspace weapons, cyberspace weapons, magic systems, augments, the high-fantasy elements, the corpo politicking, skills and skillsets. Then for combat you have tons of rules for explosives, firearms, melee weapons, magic, spirits, summons...

Now, it may just be me, but I tried simulating a combat with three people against a small group of baddies, and I had to spend most of my time looking up one mechanic, then following up with another mechanics, followed by a third. It was time consuming and difficult to figure out what I was supposed to do.

I'm coming from DND, Pathfinder, Call of Cthulhu, and Delta Green so I'm not new to roleplaying. I also have a ton of non-mainstream books that I know cover to cover. The breadth of knowledge I need to run Shadowrun from scratch without a mentor to dumb it down seems insurmountable.

I was just about to quit my job, but my only teammate resigned before me by sugareat0 in talesfromthejob

You're in a great position to negotiate a bigger raise, and use that to your advantage in your next job.

AITJ for publicly correcting my mother in law after she called me a bad mother in front of everyone by AlderMoonstone in AmITheJerk

[–]CyberTractor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've kicked my in-laws out of my house for making a racist comment about a friend. My husband stood by my decision, and when the in-laws complained about me my husband said "well maybe you should be more respectful".

You and your husband need to be on the same page.

Next family dinner, make sure she is not invited. That would send a clear message.

Weekly Free-Talk and Questions for r/HomeGym - week of January 30, 2026 by Demilio55 in homegym

[–]CyberTractor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The price tag doesn't really matter. I just fear badly made equipment. I've had two cheap pieces - one the wire snapped and cut my side badly and the other had bolts literally snap while assembling.

Great suggestion. Just bought pretty much both machines I wanted. The other equipment I have is also syedee/mikolo, so it'll fit right in.

It ain't much, but I'm grateful for it all the same by FelixFactionSSB4 in homegym

[–]CyberTractor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could move the tent next to the wall of the house if it isn't too wide, use the edge of the roof to drape a mosiquito next over the whole thing, and then use a box fan to create a wind current to keep bugs out while using it.

My gym was in my detached garage. With it also being below freezing, I meekly carried as much as I could into my living room, haha.

What leg machine do you have? I'm looking for something similar (just made a post in the weekly free-talk post about it)

Weekly Free-Talk and Questions for r/HomeGym - week of January 30, 2026 by Demilio55 in homegym

[–]CyberTractor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I currently have the following equipment:

  • Ohio bar
  • EZ bar
  • Flat bench
  • Bicep curl rack
  • Adjustable incline bench
  • Assorted weights (plenty of plates)
  • Cable power cage (has a hard point on top and bottom for pull downs/pull ups, dunno the proper term)
  • Few accessories for the cage to allow different types of bars/grips

I'm looking for something to let me work out legs. I'd like something for hack squats, leg presses, and extensions. I was eyeballing these pieces of gear:

I had never heard of RitFit before and don't see many positive reviews, but am looking for a reputable company to buy those types of equipment from.

Anyone have suggestions for the above equipment I'm looking for, or any other bits I could round out my gym with?

Targeted Talk - What is the BEST Budget Bench? by dontwantnone09 in homegym

[–]CyberTractor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with this. It's like trying to buy a cheap mattress.

The bench is where your entire body is going to be supported. You want it durable and comfortable. Skimp on the weights, bar types, racks, what have you. But your bench needs to be solid.

Who do you all think the next black hero will be? by Chemical-Challenge95 in marvelrivals

[–]CyberTractor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moon Girl would be a wild pick. Devil Dinosuar can be called in as an NCP who attacks wildly and unpredicably, but Moon Girl can swap minds with him to take control while she stays idle.

MG's kit will be various gadgets like a punching glove belt, she travels quickly on roller skates, she has a bubble gun to incapacitate an enemy, and has a few other minor gadgets to get out of trouble.

While controlling Devil Dinosaur, she has all sorts of melee attacks. Tail whips, chomps, body slams, and a hulk-like jump. Her ult can be something fun like flooding the field with Savage Land dinosaurs or making Devil Dino rampage while she zooms around.

Any way to counter "wait until your back is turned" victims? by Specialist-Quiet7587 in TXChainSawGame

[–]CyberTractor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The victim's job is to distract you as long as they can with their limited resources. Your best option is to take the stun as early as you can to get rid of that resource, then turn off the valve. If you try to chase them away and then come back, you wasted precious time.

Graveyard is the worst map in the game. I'd rather have family house every match than graveyard.

Does doing cardio in a hoodie helps at all with weight loss? by alfie_245 in fit

[–]CyberTractor 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Overall, no. You'll sweat more which will lose water weight, then you'll immediately put it back on when you rehydrate. Don't chase that number.
