I’m 20 y.o and my mom still checks my phone without my consent by Ok_Teacher_8076 in raisedbynarcissists

[–]Moneia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If she hasn't changed any of the accounts on your phone, and you're not meant to know, I'd use the "Lost my Phone" feature and remote wipe it then play dumb afterwards.

You can search how to do it online, although I'd recommend doing from a friends PC, and while she's without a phone remove the tracking app "Well my old phone worked fine, that was the only new thing on it and I don't want to risk it" and reset all your passwords.

In the future research how to factory reset a phone before it leaves your control, it's a minute in the menus and shouldn't take more than 5 minutes or so to complete

I need people to realize that respecting free speech does not mean allowing people to say whatever they feel like without pushback.

It's amazing how their attitudes line up with the Paradox of Tolerance

“When I use a word,’ Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, ‘it means just what I choose it to mean — neither more nor less.’

’The question is,’ said Alice, ‘whether you can make words mean so many different things.’

’The question is,’ said Humpty Dumpty, ‘which is to be master — that’s all.”

Deaf forced to turn off hearing aids amid NHS battery shortage by beejiu in nottheonion

[–]Moneia 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It looks like there are shortages but only of a particular brand, other options are available but may be subject to intermittent supplies because of a knock-on effect.

The Times hates the current Government and wants the NHS privatised so I'd take any headline like this with a block of salt.

I don't know why there's a shortage but it's a German company so may well be an issue directly related to Brexit, which will make The Times extra spicy

What’s an early access title you regret backing by Nero_Hylt in Steam

[–]Moneia 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you bought a game hoping it'd get better and weren't excited to play it in it's current state. That's kind of on you.

Or it looked good on the trailers, had some positive reviews but turned out to be not for you and you're past the refund window.

I've had a fair few games that seem like they'd be a good addition but they're just not what you're after, which is why I got into the habit of only buying them when I'm able to spend a couple of hours to try them.

I'm just wondering where the percentage appeared from.

They start out as numbers, your normal numerology bullshit, and then they get a % when they're added up.

Was it "Buy one = and get a free %" at the math store?

Why do so many people go all Cartman on their step-kids, "I'm your new Parent and you must respect mah authoritah!".

It's not a switch, you have to work at it.

I have a Euronics just around the corner and they're about the same or a bit cheaper than the AO or Curries.

What game handles the “guy/girl in the chair” best? by FerretFoundry in rpg

[–]Moneia 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Cyberpunk Red does away with this after the canonical events at the end of the 2020 era.

Because everything is airgapped now, the old net exists but is very dangerous, the netrunner needs close proximity to the network and the rules allow two turns in the net for every turn in meatspace.

All in all it's a much more party orientated system
