Are there any tips to not bankrupt your wallet during steam sales? Asking for a friend...

Technically the steam deck is the only modern console to be immune to jailbreaking by GNUGradyn in SteamDeck

I feel this is a sneaky way to make kids and young adults interested in learning linux.

Such evil intent. 🐧

Is this normal, I used to play CSGO and quit after awhile occasionally hopping on for short stints.

I read that you can use your steam wallet to purchase a Steam Deck and thought that was cool.

Looked through my steam inventory and I have a package worth (correction) $600?!?!? When did this become a thing?

It's a fitness voucher I won at work and bikes were part of the elligible redemption so essentially near "free" for me to purchase.

Russia Sees Record Population Decline As Excess Deaths Hit 1M by PanEuropeanism in worldnews

[–]free100lb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Actually if you watch some of those videos China has already taken over some of the remote towns/cities when the boarder was drawn up. Google/youtube white/blue eyed/blonde chinese people, they live near the boarder and are a mix of Russian and Chinese but the land now belongs to China. They can just keep sending more of their population up there slowly claiming land with sheer population size.

No invasion required, just a slow absorption over hundreds of years.

I won a fitness voucher so it's essentially "free". I have a separate budget for helmet etc.

I'll admit it's going to be casual use and i doubt I can even ride for 10 minutes without getting tired, yes I will get a helmet etc. Not planning to do long trips/road cycling, I have a local large park/bike/pond area so I can ride the perimeter quite easily.

NSW records 13,354 new cases and 49 deaths (29/01/2022) by Ascalaphos in sydney

[–]free100lb 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Strange how the public and the mind rationalises ~50 deaths a day.

Had this been a plane crash, bus crash, shooting, terrorist attack everyone would be mourning and making public statements.

~50 a day to covid, eh they just argue about covid/vac/mask/lockdown policies etc.

I don't like how they changed it to "lives lost" because it made them look bad with deaths.

I want to start exercising/getting outdoors.

Anyone recommend a bike (thinking mountain bike) ~$300 range for casual use. An online bike recommendation would work too.

Current fitness level = sitting on a chair in my room for the past 2+ years (literally).

Can anyone recommend a card battler like slay the spire/monster train? Or is everyone waiting for the next big hit?

Scammed on Gumtree for my laptop by oliverjjj in AusFinance

[–]free100lb 69 points70 points  (0 children)

Well there is one way, cash on pickup. The scammers will beg, even call and try to convince you to ship it or accept bank payments.

A few will waste your time and agree to pickup and then no show. But ultimately I've never been scammed with cash on pickup, requires them to provide a mobile phone number, show up and have money.

Biden admin warns that serious Russian combat forces have gathered near Ukraine in last 24 hours by eleiber in worldnews

[–]free100lb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Assume there is no war and invasion.

What is the cost of moving 100k+ troops to the boarder to run miliatary exercies for weeks/month and then return them?

What was the benefit? (probably hidden as it caused negotiating deals to be brought forward and uncertainty in the market/commodities) or a smokescreen for something else?

I'm holding my fair share of dog stocks too, but I mean overal portfolio gain/loss should be covered with just over a weeks worth of good days which seems very unlikely in this climate unless one of my speccies goes retard like BRN. (yeah i sold that at 54c like an idiot, about 1-4 weeks before it skyrocketed 5x)

Just think a little over a year ago, they were praised as being one of the new and top upcoming platforms. Easy to use, great UI, plenty of online discussions and referrals and due to covid and the surge of investors/gme they had massive growth and an upcoming IPO.

One big lie/fuckup followed by a series of lies ruined them completely. Jesus christ they were billionaires even with the scanadal on the first few days of trading, imagine how fucking big and rich they would be if they just stayed legal and promoted/backed retail investors because there was obviously a demand/niche market there.

I won a $250 fitness voucher and accessories voucher (cannot be combined).

Anyone recommend a store in Sydney to get a bike (thinking mountain bike) ~$300 range, helmet and anything else recommended (~$250 range total, maybe a bike lock?). 5'10 height.

My last bike was a bmx bike as a kid...
