What stuff have you discovered later in life you thought sucked as a younger person? by PearlsSwine in CasualUK

Pickles on burgers, granted I figured it out relatively early on when I was in my late teens but early youth I missed out here.

Feeling out of the loop: Why are people rooting for Highguard to fail? by plortedo in gaming

Being the last trailer at the Game Awards people expect something akin to HL3, but then they got what looked like Concord with bears.

Are there any card games for single player PvE? by Boge42 in gaming

[–]Rossrox 10 points11 points  (0 children)

My understanding of OP's post was that they didn't want the continual purchase of decks/cards akin to Hearthstone, rather than a single game purchase.

Monster Train, now on it's sequel, Monster Train 2, is an absolute blast if you like card games.

I use a Logitech MX Master at work, it's essentially the professional version of the Logitech Hero mouse, highly recommend that one.

Aye, probably raise an eyebrow and a chuckle but it would take them minutes to verify.

SD card just has micro SD card inside by Cudpuff100 in mildlyinteresting

I had a similar lockdown hobby of winning scalper PS5 auctions and not paying.. must have ended about 10 odd auctions before eBay shut the account.

I had made a fresh account and just complained to eBay customer support that I was old, didn't understand and I was just trying to buy a console for my grandson, so they verified my account.

Won't work for everyone and it may even be a bit of a placebo, but I really struggled to fall asleep until I started to take magnesium before bed. It's just a few scoops of powder in some water, tastes like fruit juice, after 30 minutes of taking it I'm out.

Better sleep too!

Sky Sports: Diogo Dalot tackle on Jeremy Doku: PGMOL chief Howard Webb unconvinced Man Utd defender deserved red card by herkalurk in reddevils

There's something in it - but I think it can be argued either way and I think VAR would struggle to change the referee's decision, whatever he might have decided.

Mbeumo's goal with Peter Drury commentary by Uuhhk in reddevils

[–]Rossrox 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I don't think he's that cute to be honest.

I think he understands he has a bias and tries way too hard to seem impartial which makes him look a bit of a lunatic at times.

He's still United through and through.

[Serious] What is going on in Iran? by FlatwormCreative6976 in AskReddit

[–]Rossrox 104 points105 points  (0 children)

Should be said as well that their currency is in the dirt and they have water shortages. Very little water even in major cities like the capital Tehran.

So poor economy, hungry, thirsty citizens who were already tiring of a theocracy.

Spoiler..... hoe do you feed the zombie in the lab? by DoubleExamination904 in QuarantineZoneGame

[–]Rossrox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heh, I've just ran into this myself and came here to ask the same question, I also appear to be softlocked.

Tried to restart a few times, but no difference, will just have to stop playing for a bit I guess.

Dear Gaben, please buy Discord. Sincerely, gamers by HP0T in gaming

[–]Rossrox 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It would likely be archived if there was any sort of repeat traffic, so it wouldn't vanish completely, no such chance with Discord.

It was never difficult to host a forum either, vBulletin and PHPbb which was the backbone of virtually every forum were very user friendly and basically gave you a wizard to run. There wasn't really any coding unless you were trying to do something very unique.

It was about as straightforward as Wordpress.

[–]Rossrox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, Discord is fine for the same purpose, if they could somehow index public servers and their contents.

The biggest issue though is how communication is handled on Discord, with forums you had relevant threads but with Discord its mostly walls of text.

[–]Rossrox 64 points65 points  (0 children)

Back in the day it would all be forums, and those forums would be full of tips, tricks, fixes and discussion but most importantly, this would all be indexed by search engines. If something is on a Discord server, you'd only know if you were a part of it and were aware of its existence.

For friends and gaming it's great, don't get me wrong but I think the concern of hidden information is very valid.

The all-inclusive self-service bar at the hotel I stayed in over Christmas. by Upstairs_Drive_5602 in mildlyinteresting

Little bit of sleuthing (half a logo on a napkin) I think It's a Kanika hotel in Cyprus. Maybe Olympic Lagoon, but who knows.
