@beardalaxy Many times, sometimes on regular games with DLC like SF6. But I used to play a fuckton of Korean MMOs and regrettably paid no mind to shelling out money constantly...

Honestly if games are normal with no live service faggotry and actual optimization and actual meaty content I will not mind paying $100 for a game.

@beardalaxy guessing 2, maybe 3 real women, unless I'm bad eye

In the 3 years of fightgames on Fridays at college (with Smash in the same room) I literally never saw a single woman there.

oouuugh made some breakfast burritos for the week and they're so tasty (had to try the first one now even though it's 10PM)

Yeah I got your nether flame sauce right here *cums blood*

@teto In middle school I got my lunch stolen by this tall Iranian kid, he was always an asshole so I took the initiative and took my cookies that he was eating and crumbled them on his head. He and his friends then jumped me, and told me they'll rape me, and later told the administration that I was making racist comments towards them (yet at this point in my life in I hardly had the concept of racism in my head, or even what rape was. We were like 12-13). I got bruised ribs and five days suspension and they didn't get anything, despite having witnesses back me up. In fact there were a lot of times like that, where I got in trouble for just being in the situation. Los Angeles Unified School District! Epic!!!

@Dude the same type of people making this were telling us classic Dante was a faggot and that we needed to make him a skinny meth addict to save the series

@roadside I think this is still there, if not then other old Mickey D’s in LA

@PurpCat Okay, I will have to broaden my search… I just can’t really take the amorphous bean shape of everything made past 2010

Is a used car from like the 90’s gonna be a bigger money sink than something more recent? My dad is telling me to buy something more recent, but I just want an old Honda or Volvo or something…

@PurpCat Shein junk is showing up in thrift stores now, accidentally bought a Shein shirt at Goodwill and it actually disintegrated in my washing machine

Gonna be at the beach in a week

ThinkPad W500 ATI GPU dieded I just want a cool old laptop with no problems

@beardalaxy yeah nigga my boomer parents were literally just going around saying "I hope XYZ gets Luigi'd" at every minor inconvenience for the past few weeks while simultaneously crying that these overvalued inflated companies have finally sprung a leak. Didn't the S&P double in five years while we were locked up in a "pandemic"? Weren't people saying we were in a bubble for that entire time? The fuck are people crying about now. We're probably on the cusp of the biggest "I told you so" of our lifetime.

How is it an order of magnitude cheaper to get an AliExpress USB cable shipped from Guangzhou than it is to buy one at Walmart (also shipped from Chyna)? Wasn't Coke hiring South American PMCs to kill unions in their factories or some shit and now people want to protect the company? Foxconn paying slaves like $12 a month to make iPhones and I should care Apple is in the red for a week? This shit isn't sustainable or healthy. Don't give a fuck anymore, if I can't buy a house you can't buy your yearly iPhone bitch.

@beardalaxy I dunno thing I have notices is when $70 games started showing up and when that $100 GTA6 rumor started too people were saying "I'll gladly pay it if it's good and not live service slop," not saying that people complaining are the people who were also saying that but that is a reasonable take I think. So unless MKW and other Nintendo games are just bad and have live service mechanics then personally I'm okay (just okay) with more expensive games. In the case of MK specifically I think it will probably have way more content than release MK8 but I fear they might dip their toes into live service/microtransaction junk with costumes and stuff.

I'm kinda shamefully sold on the Switch 2 fuck me I'm like a beer battered housewife

@beardalaxy CRTs are just "retro gamer monitor $200 I know what I have" it's fucked. I mean I'm sure you know... but dammit, people were giving them away 10 years ago!!! And prices on good 4:3 LCDs are getting unreasonable now too... I just want a normal option for 4:3, at the least, dammit! There's new 1080p monitors for like $80, why can't they just chop the sides off of it!!!

I got a CRT but I'm about to trash it, it's too dim (even at night) and has some weird alignment issue... If I can ever find a reasonably priced 1600x1200 CRT locally I'll definitely jump on it but I haven't seen much around the past few years...
