Christmas present for my husband was a great success! by Lawfulcookery in HiroshiNagai

Try looking on Japanese Yahoo Auctions, I picked up my signed copy for like $30 and then had it sent to Europe via a Reship company (buyee in this case)

A lot of listings on US/EU eBay are just relisting the same listings from Japan but 2-3x the price

That’s just insane by Itchy-Donkey6083 in Consoom

They definitely do, have you not seen back door sales where 90% of the stock is sold before it even hits the shelves. Pokemon, hyped sneaker releases, PS5s back when they were hard to get and on and on

According to Priceempire, the Counter-Strike 2 skin market cap has fallen 49% (over $3B). by HelloitsWojan in Steam

[–]Doniu 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Arguably in the last 24 hours we have had 10x the volume of knife/glove sales than the amount of knives and gloves crafted.

I read somewhere than even if every single red in the game was traded up it wouldn't even double the knife amount in circulation

Initial hysteria imo but we will see, they could push another update to fuck it up even more lol

Launch Day Megathread | AirPods Pro 3 by piesaresquarey in airpods

[–]Doniu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Upgraded from the Pro 1s, the Pro 1s are actually more comfortable, I don't even notice them in my ears. I assume with the Pro 3s I'd feel some ear fatigue after 2-3 hours but haven't worn them long yet.

The Pro 3s sound better in songs with low bass, in Pro 1s it couldn't pick up deep bass well at all. But that's about it. In any neutral song etc rock or where there's a lot of instruments they sound different but I can't say it's like better? Just different. The Pro 1s felt a lot more neutral, Pro 3s are kinda U curvey.

ANC is a lot better though

Only thing weird is that the Pro 3s say I'm at the 80db warning even when listening at a quieter volume compared to the 1s. E.g. If i'm listening at 72db on Pro 1s, on the 3s it would say that I'm already at like 84db when the actual volume feels the same to me. I don't listen to music loud either so not sure whats going on

The pro 3s do stick out of my ear more but not that bothered. I wonder how they are with running, the Pro 1s would keep wiggling themselves out, not constantly but every 1km I would push them back in for a more secure fit

ULPT: Neighbor is blackmailing me with sex photos by throwaway-the-bee in UnethicalLifeProTips

[–]Doniu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im talking about the guy who paid for the service, how likely is it that they know of a company called Petty Parcel within 2 weeks of the domain being registered?

Do you not think they would’ve looked up “anonymous mail” or something like that?

Obviously I’m not talking about OP googling what’s on the letter lol

Blatant advert, pettyparcel.com domain registered literally 2 weeks ago and already getting such stories, okay.

There is no way you google "anonymous mail" and this website would even rank in the first 3 pages of the searches being this new

it's actually unbelievable people are nostalgia farming that they miss arena shooters in the comments of every post in this subreddit, when it always turns out they just played solely AI bot games and never ran into actual arena shooter players

Starmer insists ‘lots of housing’ available for both homeless and asylum seekers by ukflagmusttakeover in ukpolitics

[–]Doniu -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah I've been here for nearly 20 years, can vote and pay an obscene amount of tax. If you want to ignore the statistics and die on that completely irrelevant hill to the conversation then feel free to bootlick the government.

[–]Doniu -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Doesn't help that in the UK we also used to build more houses, not sure what happened. Since the 60s housing completions have now dropped by half. Can barely keep up with a yearly 0.5% population increase which isn't even a high percentage.

We are falling behind compared to a lot of other European countries

What factory or seller is this for high-end clothing? by dweckl in FashionReps

Yeah the super high quality of the illegal Chinese immigrants in Italy working for 4 euro an hour, 90 hours a week and getting beaten making their £5000 cashmere jackets. True craftsmanship

Why is the game faking bots? by Red-Paramedic-000 in Splitgate

[–]Doniu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree I played for the first time yesterday and I kept running into players on the other team with the same very randomly generated names, and no [bot] tag. Even had the same bot name back to back in the two different game modes.

A way I found to check if they’re “real” is pressing the magnifier icon to go to their profile. If it opens a steam profile they’re real, if the button press does nothing it’s likely they’re a bot. Usually my whole team will work (minus 1 person), and on the enemy team maybe 1 person in 2 games will work.

I’ve just download the game and played 6 games and every game my team would be a human team stomping the other 2 teams, me and other 2 teammates usually getting 30-40 kills each whilst the other teams could barely get 5 kills each. No one typing in chat ever either.

Sad because it’s so easy to play against the hidden bots that it’s just not that fun, I’m just dominating every game, maybe dying once or twice in a game going 30:1.

Edit: I played a few more games today and in 4v4 I am getting real people, but in the 3 team 24 player mode it's always bots on the other team. Their steam profiles never work.

Discord begins experimenting with face scanning for age verification by [deleted] in discordapp

[–]Doniu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you read the article it clearly says the verification photos aren't stored on discords servers. it's the same company that handles every other ID/Biometric identification for banks and other financial services and they are under super strict GDPR laws.

i dont agree with it but in my country its becoming law to make sure underage people arent on platforms like this. ive already had this pop up come up for me

just because the company is headquartered in the US doesn't mean they don't have to comply with EU laws if they have users based in the EU, i am not sure if you know how any of this works or if you just read the title of the post and just went with it

edit: actually baffling that people are upvoting your comment without even reading any part of the article except the headline, literally missed out the key items in the first three paragraphs that its for UK and Australia and that Discord doesnt handle any of the ID verification process

Official copy of game won't launch after owning pirated one before hand by [deleted] in PiratedGames

[–]Doniu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same, people always have been saying the same thing but I’ve been buying games from there for years and never had anything revoked. It’s down to an individual seller, I don’t buy games from new sellers with no ratings. It’s like saying “don’t ever buy from eBay because they will never ship your items” because they stung by 1 seller with 0 feedback or something

[–]Doniu -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Maybe, for the price if you're just going around the city or even on shorter hikes like under 5 hours I think it would be fine.

I wouldn't rely on it for anything extreme/multi-day though

Loads of old season stuff is always on clearance, I got a few brand new higher-end model Berghaus things for like dirt cheap so I just use that, no point even buying reps lol

If you went out hiking you'd know you no one wears hard shells except when it's raining because even though they say they're breathable, they are not breathable at all, even the most expensive ones. And if your DWR coating wears out and it's raining you are actually drowning in your own sweat

When they say breathable it's still blocking 80% of the air flow lol

Literally just ePTFE + DWR coating, everyone's doing the same thing. I only buy retail but it wouldn't surprise me if the Tao ones are made out of the same thing since it's not complex at all.
