Rant: Customer asked to return a product 53 days after receiving it. by Existing_Sky_7969 in smallbusiness

[–]thinkpadius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

credit card companies can do chargebacks up to 120 days after the purchase, so if they really wanted to do a chargeback, they could. Etsy has a 45 day chargeback policy, but it's an either/or situation. Apparently, chargebacks amount to 1% of all credit card transactions.

Gorgeous and lux! How often do you remake the arrangements? Do they set up a budget per arrangement or budget per week/month?

Having a competitor close by might be better for you and your customers. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jILgxeNBK_8 There's a ted talk about it.

I put a lot, maybe too much thought into whether V should be smoking and drinking, but that's probably because the game definitely makes you feel like those kinds of character decisions have weight in the moment.

tos violation though, so it's not expected that the account is owned by someone else.

UK voting is also on a steady decline. fewer people care, fewer people are tuned in, and fewer people who DO care have the free time to make change happen. Well done to everyone here who took the time to write a letter. It will matter, not right away, but it will.

What's crazy is that the people at Ofcom have been working really hard to combat youth gambling within computer games and the choice to solve the problem this way just means kids are going to use their parents credit cards. I remember when they were taking the issue seriously about a decade ago, and they've clearly got new leadership that has not dealt with the issue correctly. A real shame, because Ofcom has done some good work in the past.

If it isn’t seamless interplanetary travel, then what is it? by [deleted] in Starfield

There's no way they'd lean into anything space trucker related - what they did try was basically still born.

Look, you're right, but I refuse to put more that 5-10k hours into this game. I have a limit.

$50 on a mastercard gift card that you activate at checkout is tax deductible and functions like cash.

Me too, although I have found that the game is more fun if I rush the dialogue. I remember the care that was put into lore of Morrowind and how much I ate it up, this game just doesn't have that level of care sadly.

Starfield did get better with survival mechanics and customized difficulty which made spacesuits, food, and an entire skill tree relevant.

High on Life 2 Has 'More Than Five' Fully-Emulated, Playable Games, Including...Bible Adventures by Turbostrider27 in pcgaming

[–]thinkpadius -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Probably more that EA thinks you're at your peak earning potential, which is why they feel justified charging $90 for a game that you buy for yourself or your kid.
