Well.. this is off topic... as it isn't something that Pisses me off. because it actually looks pretty good. I thought you were linking your games through Discord not buying some of the games through them. Not to mention possible other services. https://techcrunch.com/2018/08/09/discord-is-launching-a-game-store/ This is the newest info. Perhaps someone should create a Discord thread ?

Discord's software is way better than the crappy steam app even with the updates...

One of the things I do is a lot of data mining, finding trends in large amounts of data that can help our doctors to create better prognosis. I have been instructed to do some data mining on smoke-victims, people that got lung cancer or lung diseases from smoking. Because the numbers don't look negative enough, I am being instructed to simply count any kind of external factor (e.g. particulate matter, asbestos) as 'tabacco' death. This just caused the 'cause of death by smoking' to go up with 38%. YOU ARE BEING LIED TO, PEOPLE.. And when all of this is said and done, and everyone stopped smoking? There will be just as much cases of lung cancers and diseases, because you know what? In Indonesia and other non-industrial areas, where often nearly 70% of population smokes, lung cancer nearly does not exist. So keep believing the lies, especially if they make you feel good. People need leadership, they'd be lost without it. peoples smoke for 1500y and suddenly before 60-70y they start to die of cancer??? what was happen before 60-70y? "automobilization" in early 1980 some british medical institute was made comparison between combustion engine and cigarette in 5min you need 17 000 cigarettes to make same amount of deadly toxins as 1 (ONE) combustion engine that was "one-day news" for the newspapers and then research was disappear so i believe you and i also believe that big pharma and tobacco industry are connected just see who own what

Not the nasty stench that cigarettes have. They've been adding crap to cigarettes for years, especially today, even much more than in 1980. That's what kills you. The difference between a cigarette and a combustion engine, is that cigarette smoke tends to be concentrated around people because that is where it comes from. Combustion from engines tend to b dissipated by distance and air, although it is still not good and air pollution can build up to toxic levels. Getting away from concentrated toxic levels of combustion is generally easier than getting away from people who smoke. That's what smokers don't think of when they bingo "what about air pollution? Why don't you focus on that, instead of us smoking in your house, in your face wherever you go?" There was one woman who was a airline attendant in the sixties, seventies, who was in a wheel chair and oxygen for lung cancer. It's not car exhaust that killed her, it was the concentration of cigarette smoke on planes that killed her. Try air filtering systems, like I am right at this moment. I'm not breathing car exhaust right now, But I am breathing cigarette smoke from downstairs. Unfortunately only the best and most expensive filtering systems get rid of that shit. Right now my apartment smells like cigarette smoke. It's the gasses from all the additives that can get through the smallest cracks and travel far that stink and have the carcinogens. I wish there was an easy way to dye gasses from the cigarettes in the air, so people can see how far that shit travels and how it gets into places. Smoker don't realize how much that stuff smells, so they have no idea where it's going and how much other people have to breathe that shit. And, yes, that pisses me off. People saying that smoking doesn't give you cancer, it does absolutely no harm! Ignore the people who don't want your second hand smoke and smoke away! Muh freedomz that George Washington died for! That's a logical fallacy, because one hospital is falsifying records about first hand smokers, and one country doesn't have a high rate of lung cancer, it follows that cigarettes are harmless. Never mind that tobacco company hired scientists have been steadily lying over the years that cigarettes do no harm, over and over, because they were paid to do so. I'm guessing whoever is doing this are either anti-smoking activists who are desperate to stop the shit, or insurance that is tired of paying out more for all tobacco related deaths, trying to stop it at the source, smokers themselves. It isn't right, but I understand the motivation.

I swear everything good and creative gets buried under mounds of the following every time: - People spamming screenshots of the first 10 minutes of the game - People posting screenshots from the same 3 cutscenes everyone else has already uploaded a screenshot of. - People who took 57 screenshots of their character in 30 seconds and felt it was completely necessary to upload ALL of them. - People who post the blandest screenshots imaginable yet still manage to collect 300+ likes and make the top rated front page just because they have an uber-bloated friendlist.

FenrisHellhound Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 I hate a lot of things. I think what pisses me off most is when a game company runs a Series, standalone title, MMO, etc game into the ground with poor practice and scummy business decisions. It really robs the gaming community of titles that could be so much more. I won't name any titles in particular but its so Arrrrrrgh. So many games I've played or tried that I really liked at one point just get totally ruined with scummy monetary practices or inconsistent design flow.
MrEsturk Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 Since I'm ranting about irritating people on Steam might as throw in the anti-Denuvo zealots. As if making a dozen hissy-fit topic's about Denuvo it on a game's discussion page has ever caused a developer to change their mind and take software off their game. Its caused Gerald's theory of trolling to take full effect as the complainers have gotten so full of themselves they've become infinitely more annoying than the stupid anti-piracy software itself.
ToJKa Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 Who says Denuvo doesn't offer any added value to the consumer? The endless drama is of guaranteed quality ? Yes, it is a pointless software, but also completely invisible. After the SecuNONE, StarFarce and limited activations bullshit, i find it quite acceptable.

Yeah, you want an annoying anti-piracy feature try: "Please enter the 6th word from page 47, paragraph 3, sentence 4 of your game manual..." every single time you boot up the game. Those youngin's don't know how good they got it ?

GoldenFrieza Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 Paid mods. I'm not referring to CC since there's nothing we can do about that & it's generally not been very interesting content anyways. I am finding more cases of individual modders selling their mods. It's becoming a lot more common to have a Patreon where the mods are for Patrons only & content offered by tiers.
LordAureli Posted October 25, 2018 Posted October 25, 2018 Misbehaving kids and their entitled parents. I teach in a school and nowadays I find hard to believe how many children often curse, insult, talk back and sass at their teachers (I'm not talking about teens, we're discussing 3-8 year olds). We're basically their second family. And then, when you call the parents to inform about their children's misbehavior in class, they usually turn against you because "my child is a precious little angel and they would never do something like that" and proceed to send complains to the school about you and how you are "not doing your job". It's not my job to teach them to be respectful towards their teachers and peers, it's your responsability as their parent. My only job is to share knowledge about my subject.
Guest Posted October 25, 2018 Posted October 25, 2018 I can understand that some people have to do some house interior repair after 17:00 since they working or have been absent from home until then, but, fuck me if I can understand why he has to drill inside walls in 1:00 after midnight. Common, neighbor, some solidarity here please.

Damn modern pediatric and similar shit approach in which child doesn't lie, can't be wrong, they are most innocent and honest creatures in the who world. My god damn ass they are.

Guest Posted October 25, 2018 Posted October 25, 2018 Our country is on the top in the Europe in the number of alcoholism addiction. Since 2014 the number grew for 100 000 so up to date is 300 000 registered alcoholics which is very concerning amount of addicts since Croatia has 4.154 inhabitants. What pisses me off is the act of idiots that leads our country. For example: prices of the cigarettes goes up twice a year and they have to be hidden in the stores and newspaper sands. Prices of alcohol drinks didn't go up for years and it is exposed on very visible spots in the stores. What a fucking controversy. I didn't hear that anyone who smoke drove over pedestrian and kill him/her but people who drinks alcohol without control did it and they are doing it every day. Beside killing people on the roads, alcoholics are violent and they hurt other people and destroy families. Absurdity of governmental decisions newer ceased to shock people.
