It's april. It's already 20C+ outside... and no rain for the past couple of weeks. I'm not a happy man right now.

Sadly, the union rep told me they sort of could do this, but talking to him and the worker protection rep we noticed that my employer has been missing alot of things in their accident reports, phoning important stuff in. We also noticed that our normal way of recieving renumeration for that first workday is wrong, I had recieved a letter a few months after I crushed my right hand that to recieve full compensation we need to take things through the traffic insurance, since we work with trailers and containers all accidents classify as traffic incidents. Sooo... Been on the phone for three hours this morning, had to use two phones and switch since the battery drained on my private one. XD

Adult Only levels of cool.

Costs me one day in pay, and then I only get 80% pay. Needless to say, I'm getting in contact with the union. They can't really do that to me, they're not allowed to. They HAVE to supply either a job that I can do (That doesn't involve a broken finger) or give me full pay while at home.

Got put on sickleave today, against my will.

You have my sympathy Chilloutman, I know that pain all to well. Been playing Generation Zero this evening, I'm having a blast even while solo. Going to play with mates once they can afford it. Also once I get a new headset.

Well, lowering the power target would also lower the frequency of your GPU, and thus your framerate, lending credence to your theory.

Left-sided traffic? Japan?

Sure, but nowhere near as much as the Sabbat, I'm just going for what I think is most likely.

Since it's Vampire Masquerade, the generations closer to the methuselas has disappeared and thinbloods are more prevalent. Looking at what they've written, you are one of these. It's possible that you were embraced by the Sabbat aswell since they are generally the ones that deal in mass embracing people, but I don't know if the Camarilla has done a 180 on this.

AW man, I was going to joke about "in name only"

With a broken finger on my left hand and my right hand crushed since before I can't even do one, but I used two dumbbells and only managed 12. Now I actually feel like I might have a heartattack any second x.x

Depends on what you consider "bad". It might be OK-ish technically but it's lacking a whole lot of features steam has, whether those are relevant to you is for you to decide. The main issue (imho) is their way of doing business (just outright trying to buy customers by exclusivity rather than competing on features, or price) and the fact that they are customer unfriendly on purpose (by not allowing reviews or letting publishers pick whether they want reviews, for starters), basically all the progress that was made on information being readily availably to customers they intend to roll back so publishers can keep releasing broken products with as little repercussions as possible. Because, face it, for most consumers there are two sources of information on a new game: platform reviews (Steam, Gog and the MS Store, all have them) and gaming "journalists". Seeing how the latter are about as reliable as leaving an alcoholic to guard a liquor store (the biggest trainwrecks from AAA publishers still get scores in the 60s and 70s...) they just try to get rid of the former. There's also their refund policy, which apparently has improved, so I'm not sure if it's still a train-wreck but they made it as annoying as possible to get one so people, well, just wouldn't, really. For the more "dedicated" gaming clientèle nothing really changes as we tend to rely on peer reviews and/or YouTubers anyway, but catering to publishers by actively being user-hostile doesn't particularly sit well with me. Also, they are still not GDPR compliant as far as I can tell. I'll admit to not having looked really hard to see if they've changed that.

No, they consider the damages to be too much for the cars worth since they don't acknowledge the upgrades I've done on it with suspension and such, they've offered to get me a "new" car, but they won't pay enough to get me a car in as good a condition as I have. The amount of money they consider the car to be worth is around 1500$ but to get another one I need about twice that. I have to see if I can wrest some repair money out of them and get the rest of my own, but I suspect that they won't pay up. I have about 3000$ saved up that I was going to use to pay for a licence for lorries, but it looks like I have to give that up or trick a bank with a loan or something. I'm going to see if I can strongarm the car dealership/repairshop into giving me money aswell since they parked the car out on their parking lot over the weekend which is next to the only McDonalds in town, right between McD and the bars and such in the inner city. All kinds of turds waddle around there in the middle of the night. I'm glad I've got steelrimmed winter tyres on it so that I can actually tow it onto a trailer without totally ruining the rims, and a really nice trucker from work is going to take the company car trailer and lorry and drive it to his garage.

You sound absolutely nothing alike.

Hit a badger a little while ago, handed in my car to let the insurance company fix it, which they did. Got my car vandalized while at their parking. Keyed, dented, broken off wipers, antennae, lists, slashed tyres, the connection for my heater, connection for trailerlights and it goes on. I'm in a bit of a murderous mood.

Haha! Sounds very familiar We have a couple of departures that's supposed to leave their previous pickup location at the same time as they leave my workplace.

It's a CONSPIR4CY, I tell ya!

I just realized that, aside from DEViANCE which stopped being active back in the mid 2000s, I have no idea if those groups are still around. If you review the PROFETs CODEX you will find certain ways to get your CPY.

Yeah, you'll have to turn it off altogether from what I recall. I have the same issues.

The thing that is really keeping me away from playing online is the dice. Honestly, I really want to feel those dice in my hand as I throw them, just clicking a button is awful.

Yeah, they started at 1400€... I'll be honest with you, I don't think we really have any SPCA equivalent here, we have a couple of organizations that involve themselves in lawmaking, and terroristorganisations similar to PETA.

Yeah, it's ludicrous really. Checked 15 ads right now, one mixbreed puppy was at 500€, and someone was trying to quickly get rid of 2 pups because of allergies and asthma for 850€...

Pfft, massively missed opportunity. With that attention to detail, this game is going to massively fail.

250€? Wow, that'd be every dog here, I don't think I've ever seen one being sold for less than twice that.
