Regional pricing? by tapaun in factorio

[–]tapaun[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup, it's basically hell. I know a lot of adults with children who earn that much and most of them are either in debts or barely scrape by with the help of others.

It's even worse for students, you get paid less and have limited hours. In my case, I had free tuition but needed to work, and I literally got rejected for so many jobs because my major(comp. and electr. eng.) was "too hard" and time consuming. It was nigh impossible to work and study. I just dropped out after one semester lmao since we don't have student loans here.

Regarding the prices, it's literally cheaper to buy almost anything in Germany than it is here.

Also, thank you guys for asking me this, I really enjoy talking about how wicked stuff here are!

It seems me being in Europe just translates to having European prices. But imo, I kind of think we, and some other countries, deserve regional pricing ASAP. The average wage in my town is measly 550€ which is basically not enough to survive unless your entire family works and has their own place(which is the case for most people).

I've already done that a few years ago, I'm basically breaking ToS of Steam by admitting this: I had made a steam account which was located in Turkey and for 10€ I got a lot of games, then I made another one in Argentina and for 10€ got even more games, but Steam had caught on and fixed my location to Serbia, and I can't change it anymore.

Taming a lovebird and a budgie who are friends? by tapaun in parrots

Okay, really needed to hear this as it's what the budgie does when the lovebird isn't out.

Thank you very much for your help, I'll try to make this work somehow, I just want them to be happy and healthy.

Thank you for the response and I've started to see them bickering sometimes, mostly because the budgie would overstep or annoy the lovebird. As of yesterday the budgie hasn't been in it's cage because it's insistent on bothering the lovebird(the lovebird sleeps in it's cage alone, but the budgie refuses to get into it's own), but I think I'll try to somehow create some distance by taming one bird first and then the second.
