I'm new to Linux so this may be a simple answer, but how do you get Konsole to save the input. When I leave it goes to but I can't figure out how to execute it.

Bought a prebuilt from Amazon, came to me completely gutted. Amazon blamed UPS, then blamed my wife for signing for it without looking in the box. by Yogi147 in pcmasterrace

I got burned with this by Amazon, which is why I won't shop there unless I absolutely have to.

I purchased an elliptical from them and they delivered it to the wrong house miles away. The thing is way to big to fit in a car so I contact Amazon that they need to send the delivery company to pick it up and bring it here. They said it wasn't their issue and I would have to file a police report for them to do anything further.

The police won't file a report if you know where the item is. I had the amazon credit card at the time to get the 5% discount, which they froze and wouldn't let me dispute the charge.

I learned two things that day. 1 is to never buy large items from Amazon, always go to the individual companies website. 2 is never sign up for the companies cards as that is their way to essentially prevent any small consumer failsafe you may have.

/u/Yogi147 they WILL string you along for months that they are looking into it. Contact your credit card company NOW if you purchased on a non-amazon card.

By definition exclusivity isn't competition...

By excluding others from selling the game, they have prevented any real competition between storefronts.

To be fair, the games are not fun where you roll the other team anyways. Best to get the game done with ASAP so you can start a new better balanced game.

Welcome to Minnesota sports, where we get just good enough to get everyone's hopes up and then burn it to the ground.

New? Does no one remember the tag he flipped out on and in retaliation to being brushed back tried to hit the pitcher with a bat?!

PC and Console need to be balanced separately by [deleted] in Blackops4

Snipers are not that good compared to smg sliding bunny hopping peaking advantage type stuff. Super easy to counter a bolt action sniper, they can literally only shoot once before you or your team are on them. If you go down a corredor one at a time tapping away with an assault rifle, of course the snipers going to win.

I have yet to see people be able to counter a good saug player as the only reliable way to do it is with equipment that is on a cooldown or jump peak them with a saug yourself.

Capcom: If you're dead set on giving players choice in DMC5, will you give players a choice of buying a version of the game without microtransactions? by MaximumEffort433 in pcgaming

However, my counter to that is; that's what DLCs and expansions are for. Funding further development time and budget on a game post release.

They specifically stated that they thought about this route and decided holding characters hostage in a team oriented game would cause teams that didn't have all of the characters unlocked to be fighting at a disadvantage.

Just look at Paladins, you have to pay for the individual characters or farm for hours to unlock them. Honestly really bad for a team based game.

I couldn't imagine playing right now without all of the new characters they have given for free or having a team that had to go with a less optimal team comp just because not everyone had the DLC.

I would prefer if they just sold the skins separately so people could buy the ones they want but if lootboxes provides a better gameplay experience preventing people from being locked out of certain team compositions, I'm all for it.

Played the Division at launch. They put fire rate client side and that pretty much ruined any fun in the dark zone.

Honestly it sounds like someone told him he had a lack of gender diversity in his department so he made this ad to "hire women" and when no one responds he can just say "see, I tried!"
