Poor guy 🙈

I am most offended by the fact that that's not how the ring works

Thanks, I hate it.

Now we need a pouch for every single coin, for an undefined time, because we can't be sure if we have already spent it.

How close to other coins does it have to be for eating?

How much gold do we have atm?

Divide coins into pairs of 2. After 1 hour the stack that only has one coin is the evil one. Or the total gold is too much to do this, then create stacks of N and repeat each hour with the stack that shrunk.

Thanks, I just remember the Bounty and then later Veritasium also doing a video about cosmic rays. I remember the chances actually being surprisingly high, considering how much memory is actually used nowadays and wondering why it hasn't happened much more in different systems. So I waved it off due to ECC etc. taking effect most of the time. This is certainly true, but I probably also got the numbers wrong. So I'm also gonna watch Veritasiums video again more critically now and do some research. It's a very interesting topic for me.

My Steam profile, including the inventory with some Gift Games, is public.

I get a few friend requests now and then from profiles that have that exact text (or very similar) as their profile info:

Hey, it's my alt account and I added you since saw you got some steam gifts I am interested in, I can offer you some games or other value items such as tf2 keys, so if you can add me to discuss, I would appreciate it, thanks, I am ready to go first, and can add you from my main account if we trade

Sometimes even with

I avoid posting comments because of the risk of getting flagged by the system as a scammer.

So why do these people/bots want the gift games? Are they trying to scam me, are they trying to scam others with the games? Or do they want to optain the games so they can sell them on their own 3rd party site for a profit?

Has anyone gone through with such a "trade", I'm tempted to try it with a cheap game that I don't need, just to find out how the scam works...

Edit: All gifts except for one are still available in the Steam store. The only one that is not, is a DLC, a song for Rocksmith. I doubt that this is the only reason, especially since most request have the same copypasta in the profile info.

... all I could do is sing Dragostea Din Tei. The lyrics are the only Romanian I know and barely can pronounce. At least I might go down in a rave xD

Are there any recommended best practices?

I'm doing a fresh setup on a new system and want to use this opportunity to organise things better. Previously it was quite a mess 😅

Some loose thoughts:

  • I don't really want to use the brand, so I could replace devices
  • Not all devices have a fixed place (e.g. the phone), so using the room in the name might not be a nice solution, or I could use "portable" instead for those

Not really a meme, but I think it might also be interesting for others in this community. Mods feel free to remove if that's not ok.

The movie is called Behind the Curve, and imo is a great move.

It doesn't try to ridicule the people in it. Instead it tries to make a point that if a group like the flat earth society is being made fun of rather than engaged in discussions, then the gap just gets larger and the problem worse. (If everyone else makes fun of you, you avoid them and stay in the community that supports you.)

As far as I can tell, Mark Sargent is still believing in those theories and continues doing his part in it. This doesn't surprise me, he's quite prominent in that community and I guess if he stopped, he'd lose quite a lot of his personal achievements, friends, hobbies, etc.

I don't know about the others who were in the movie, it would be interesting to know. Especially about those who were directly doing the experiments, yeah.
