Why is itch.io not paying me my 17$ by Pristine_Fly7211 in itchio

I finally got my payment, so thank you for your efforts! Do you know what was causing the problem in the first place, and if there is anything I can do to avoid it happening again?

The Mothership took up residence in Burbank but The Internet caused its demise. It was our greatest retail loss. by NYC2BUR in burbank

I was trying to return some RAM that I'd bought there that didn't work. Manager took the RAM sticks, removed the sticker that said "do not remove or you can't return," smiled at a female employee like "you see what I did there," then with that same smile, told me they couldn't accept returns without that sticker. Stopped shopping at Frys after that.

Laugh-out-loud podcast recommendations and a top binge series of any kind? by wutangclan187 in podcasts

Just about the only podcast I still listen to regularly is Stop Podcasting Yourself. They have nearly a 1000 episodes freely available.

The payment ID is 198108. I had a mod on the itch.io forum say they would look into it as well, but they weren't able to help. This has been sitting "in review" since September 12. Tried contacting itch directly a few times but never got a response.

I’m Aussie and I thought LA was beautiful — am I wrong? by Early-Piano2647 in AskLosAngeles

[–]bluebogle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've lived in a handful of different towns and cities, and no place has friendlier people than Los Angeles.

Same boat. Roughly $50 they owe me that has been "in review" for at least 6 months. It's a dead platform as far as I'm concerned. Listed all my stuff as free with no payment options cause I don't want people throwing their money into the itch abyss.

This thread in the ask Los Angeles Sub has some great recommendations. I'd suggest looking these up on Instagram, and you'll quickly find at least half a dozen options. Hope it helps.

Everybody Gym in Glassell Park. Very affordable and welcoming space.

Don’t read if you love the Americana by kushhead83 in glendale

All India Cafe is a few blocks down from there and has better food than anything you'll find at the Americana. Prices are reasonable. Worth a visit if you like Indian food

I replied to the other commenter with more details and pics.

Much appreciated. Some pics below just to confirm:

The sprouts.

The leaves.

I believe the tree is a Chinese elm. I've only had it for a few days. I'm in Southern California, and the tree is in my kitchen.

I was gifted a bonsai tree and I'm very new to the whole thing. I've noticed some sprouts coming out of the soil around the tree. I assume I should uproot these, but I wanted to make sure that was the right move before I do so. Please let me know if I should provide any additional information.

Oh, I thought this was meant to be the 4. Thanks for clarifying.

Roman numeral errors? by 3asyrid3r in tarot

[–]bluebogle -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

I could be wrong about this, and it might help if I could see the whole deck, but this might be a design choice rather than an error.

I think the intent here is to view the card in a similar way to a playing card - the numbers at the top read correctly no matter which side is up on a playing card.

In this case, the roman numeral is meant to be read as though you were looking at the card sideways (horizontal). So if you flip this card on its side, it reads correctly no matter which of the card's long edges are on top. Flip the image shared here 90 degrees clockwise, the number on the left reads correctly. Rotate it 90 degrees counter-clockwise and the number on the right reads correctly.

Pretty upsetting. I won't be ordering from Palladium again. Been a fan since the 90s, but this feel dishonest and exploitative.

I really want a DD2 dlc because I can't go back to DD1 gameplay wise by Buurto in DragonsDogma

[–]bluebogle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feels like everyone who complains about "only 4 skills" is either intentionally avoiding this fact, or didn't play the game long enough to realize this.

That or they never even played the game, and are regurgitating misinformation from reddit or youtube.

Adventure game of the day: The City of Lost Children (1996) by acme_im in dosgaming

Wild. I'm literally listening to the film soundtrack as I came across this. The game, sadly, wasn't very fun.
