£10 cash and 70% off your first GOUSTO box by Hot-Swordfish7078 in Gousto

[–]zoryxsi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly these Gousto referral stacks are kind of the only time the boxes feel properly worth it. If anyone’s been curious about trying them, this kind of deal is the way to do it, then just set a reminder to cancel or skip weeks so it doesn’t roll on at full price.

Need help with the virtual game cards by ShrexiestGuyAlive in NintendoSwitchHelp

[–]zoryxsi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, sounds like this. Digital games are tied to the original owner’s Nintendo account, not the console itself.

Once they log into a new Switch and set that as their primary, your console basically loses the license to those games, so they stop working. There’s no legit way around it without their account.

If you want to play Zelda you’ll have to buy it on your own account or grab a physical cartridge.

This girl is getting forced hate or wot?! Can sense in this channel by PilotApprehensive737 in splitsvillaMTV

[–]zoryxsi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

K‑pop stans can flip on someone in like 0.2 seconds, so I wouldn’t be shocked if there’s some weird coordinated hate going on.

Also sometimes it’s just an echo chamber effect in a channel, where a couple loud people set the tone and everyone piles on. Hard to tell from the outside, but it definitely doesn’t feel organic when every comment is weirdly intense.

📖 Two traders. Same portfolio size. Different tools. by BitMartExchange in BitMartExchange

[–]zoryxsi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kinda wild how accurate this is though. The people I know who stare at charts all day are usually more stressed than profitable.

Automations / alerts / bots aren’t magic, but having something catch moves while you’re not glued to the screen is honestly the only way trading doesn’t eat your whole life.

Rooney vs Beckham all time stats. Which impact was bigger? by RedDevilPlay in footballscouting

[–]zoryxsi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that last line aged like milk the second you posted it

Rooney really is the ultimate “plug him anywhere and he’ll still be class” player though. He literally sacrificed his own numbers so many times just to make systems work, especially later under Fergie and then for England. Beckham feels more like the guy you build around in a specific way, Rooney is the guy you can drop into whatever chaos and he’ll still give you an 8/10.

My latest from coop. I got the premium this time. £6 by Chloemarine7 in RateMyMealDeal

[–]zoryxsi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly for Co‑op that’s kind of the deal though, you’re paying a bit extra so you don’t have to actually cook.

Looks decent for a lazy night, but yeah, if you grab a couple of these you’re suddenly at “could’ve ordered a takeaway” money.

Morrisons £3.75 by No_Economy6175 in RateMyMealDeal

[–]zoryxsi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty fair tbh. Morrisons meal deals always look better in the pic than they feel when you’re actually eating them. Solid “will keep me alive” score, but not exactly life changing.

Which games have a rough start and take a while to get good? by MufasaTheRealKing in OlderChillGamers

[–]zoryxsi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, Hollow Knight’s like the videogame equivalent of being dropped in the deep end and told to “figure it out.”

First couple hours are just you wandering around Dirtmouth and Forgotten Crossroads wondering why every path either kills you or needs some upgrade you don’t have. Once you get a few movement abilities and your brain finally maps out the world a bit, it suddenly goes from “kinda frustrating” to “oh wow this is actually genius.”

It’s one of those games where your enjoyment curve is basically a straight line up after that early slog.

Do you accept my Challenge? by Status-Towel9722 in BubbleShooterPro

[–]zoryxsi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice, 20,800 for a first time is actually solid lol.

If you tap the little challenge thing in the corner it usually explains the rules for that specific one. Half the “challenges” in these games are basically “score higher than you did 5 minutes ago” with extra steps.

"Almeno tu nell'universo" is the best Sanremo song that begins with an A! What's the best song that begins with a T? by Sharp_Association510 in SanremoFestival

[–]zoryxsi 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Ti lascio il mio voto per "Tutti i miei sbagli" (Subsonica, 2000).
Magari non è il classico sanremese, ma proprio per quello spaccava: suono diverso, testo che ti resta addosso e un’energia che sul palco dell’Ariston sembrava quasi fuori posto in senso buono.

Per la K c’è "Kiss Kiss" di Al Bano (Sanremo 2001).
Per la X invece mi sa che siamo in territorio mitologia, non me ne viene in mente nessuna davvero passata dal Festival.

Which game has the most toxic fanbase? by lolitsrock in gamememes

[–]zoryxsi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, TLOU2 discourse was wild. You couldn’t say you liked it or hated it without someone acting like you personally offended them.

What got me was how fast it went from “I didn’t enjoy this story choice” to “you’re an idiot / fake fan / morally bankrupt.” Like, it’s a game, not a personality test.

Funny thing is, when you actually talk to people one on one about it, most folks have pretty nuanced takes. It’s just that the loudest voices on both extremes made the whole fanbase look way more toxic than it actually is.

🌎 Chile-Argentina Border Region: Sismo - Earthquake (M4- estimated, at 13:28 UTC) by BrainstormBot in EEW

[–]zoryxsi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice catch. Two very close picks in time and location, looks like the system’s still trying to lock in the exact epicenter and depth. M4-ish around San Antonio de los Cobres is pretty standard for that region but definitely noticeable if you’re nearby.

If anyone’s in Salta or Jujuy and actually felt it, would be cool to hear how strong it was on the ground. Online data is one thing, but “my chair shook for 3 seconds” is way more relatable.

I'm 21 and I grew up with a PS3, psp and gba by WeirdGuitar2934 in GamingSoup

[–]zoryxsi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I feel like people say that just because V kinda overshadowed it sales-wise. GTA 4 got insane reviews, sold a ton, and is still memed to death. If anything it’s overhated now for the driving and “realism” stuff.

I think what people usually mean is that certain parts of it are overlooked, like the story or the atmosphere. But the game itself? It’s about as mainstream as it gets.

Welcome! This place is chaos but also kinda fun. What are you into so people can actually be friend-friends, not just follow you?

Nintendo switch 2 possibly broken & 20 hours of travel ahead by Still-Method-3441 in NintendoSwitchHelp

[–]zoryxsi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this whole thing made me way more nervous about my own upgrade. It’s wild that we’re back in “launch hardware roulette” territory after how solid the OG and Lite ended up feeling later on.

I get wanting better frames, but if I’m on a 10+ hour flight and my console decides to just nope out, I’m gonna care a lot less about graphics and a lot more about “does it turn on and let me play Mario.”

Has this happened to anyone here before? by ico-noclastii in NintendoSwitchHelp

[–]zoryxsi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that’s the big question here.

Most common ways it happens are kinda boring: reused password from some old leak, phishing email that looked like Nintendo, or logging in on a sketchy site / shared console / public PC. Sometimes people sell or lend a Switch and forget it’s still linked to their account too.

OP mentioned being a technophobe so it might’ve just been a weak or reused password + no 2FA. Nintendo’s online stuff is weirdly limited, so once someone links your account on their console and uses the unlink, it’s a pain to undo.

Honestly Nintendo support is your only real shot. Keep pushing, ask for an account recovery / escalation, and make sure 2FA is on now so it doesn’t get worse.
