Nah don’t worry!! It’s really not a you problem, it’s the UK OSA - Imgur blocked API access from UK IPs, nothing a VPN doesn’t fix

Aside from knowing that it’s spelled segue, I have no idea, sorry

Yeah that happened about six months ago, rolls off the tongue doesn’t it
- Comment on How Are You Guys Handling This? 1 week ago:
I wish I didn’t go all in on digital, but then the space not taken up by physical media (in my case, >1,000 games) is also valuable to me. I’ll have to settle for keeping copies of whatever isn’t DRM locked, and pirate whatever is.
- Comment on How Are You Guys Handling This? 1 week ago:
Can confirm.
Most games I run on Heroic are free giveaways from Epic. Those are, to the best of my knowledge, all Windows. Heroic handles the compatibility with Proton, similar to how Steam does it. With a fancypants workaround you can even install Sims 4 as a direct game exe
- Comment on How Are You Guys Handling This? 1 week ago:
I’m not. You can still buy valid 12 month Xbox Live Gold subscriptions for under £40, close to the £36 before Game Pass took over. Fuck the new price. The Gold codes translate to Game Pass Core. But if you want Ultimate, well don’t let me get between your lips and Microsoft’s expensive arsehole

- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
I use Ironwolf on Android. Fennec is nice. There’s also Klar/Focus, but it is so stripped down it doesn’t have Firefox Sync.
- Comment on Teenage Jehovah's Witness can receive blood transfusion, judge rules 2 weeks ago:
She’s a child grown and conditioned entirely in the restrictive cult, knowing only what the Elders and her conditioned family taught her - the beliefs are hardly her own, let alone her medical choices. Poor kid is just one of thousands of victims of the Witnesses’ doctrines.
- Comment on Big Tech Ramps Up Propaganda Blitz As AI Data Centers Become Toxic With Voters 3 weeks ago:
Pretty sure the emissions and market starvation is what’s ‘toxic’. A more correct term would be ‘lousy’
- Comment on Steam Replay is live and notes only 14% "of playtime spent by all Steam users" was for 2025 releases 3 weeks ago:

- Comment on When a parent's primary/preferred language differs from their child(ren)'s primary/preferred language, who should have the most "obligation" to learn more of the other's primary language? 4 weeks ago:
I’d say you speak theirs - I say this not because of any tradition, but I’ve been taught that younger minds are more open to learning. Apparently that shit decreases at you age, so the idea is it’d be easier for the younger one to learn the basics of another language.
- Comment on It will be great, they said... 5 weeks ago:
I’m locked in a contract with a company that enshittified their services a little and assigns restrictive IPs to non-Business customers that have been using port 25, but am switching to a more libre ISP as soon as it ends. I basically snoozed and didn’t realise the ISP hadn’t been rated the best for several years.
