Okay.... using that on the trailer is just cheating :)

The Google doc I had made about the EpicGamesStore has been taken down due to a violation of the TOS LMAO


brb reupping
Was just going to post asking why. Start the conspiracies theories!!
But seriously, what the hell? How is that FAQ a violation of ToS? Too much facts?

I'm curious if it was reported by fanboys (since when does a company like that listen to randoms anyway, I've reported so much crap on facebook and always get the same token response that it doesn't violate rules it does clearly violate) or actual Epic folks. I suppose if the fanboys were numerous and coordinated.

Can pastebin get stuff in such a format? I'vepastebinned my token response on the topic but it's just one page, no special formatting.

I recently bought the Corsair K63 Wirelesss.


I think that one only comes with MX Red switches. I think the wired version has more options, and is a bit cheaper too. The actual build quality is really nice. Additionally, It also has these four media buttons on the top left, which are really easy to rebind with Corsairs "iCUE" software.
What would be the wired model #?
I was going to suggest checking the language bar and the Regional Settings and resetting them but if you've already tried that then... i'm at a loss for the moment.

As for cheap mechanicals i can't help as all mine have been £100+ :crying-face: Like Ducky Shine, CoolerMaster Novatouch and Storm TKL.
I know Corsair keyboards are recommended at the moment and the less flashy ones are relatively cheap so have a look. Is it the K70 everyone is enamoured with at the moment?
I don't mind spending around 100 TBH just nothing like 180. Markup here for PC nd gmaing in general is a thing. I am going to check out a ducky KB but have to drive to find a place that has them. Shine or One 2?

I wanna bite on Katana Zero but I want to see if it goes up on GMG for cheaper like most devolver games do. The reviews are not making the wait easy though @.@

Edit: Apparently Devolver pulled their titles from GMG? Man I feel dumb for waiting.

I'm not sold on Katana Zero yet. It looks pretty interesting but I just can't shake that "been there, done that" feeling everytime I watch a gameplay video.

My four day Easter holiday just started, Woho!
Still a few more hours for me (and it's a 3 day one for me). :)

Another game just released (on what's going to be a crazy day, in terms of releases):


Still waiting for that Konami Arcade compilation. :unsure:

Please make it so when I refresh metacouncil the front page goes to exactly the same spot in terms of scrolling down as it was before. It keeps going lower and lower and lower with every refresh. My OCD can't stand this. It's probably the top menu which remains at the top of the page as you scroll that borks it. Fix it! :mad:

I tried to ignore it all this time, I really did.

i don't think it's the menu ... i'm pretty sure it's the embeds ...

and i don't think there's anything that can be done about that :(

How do I highligh my own posts and posts quoted with my name in it? Everything blends in...
also not something that can be done out of the box afaik :(

What embeds does the front page have? By front page I mean the gaming side, I ignore all the rest, gaming side is in my favorites.

Well it happens every time since I started coming. Always on the latest Firefox.

I just tried with allowing trackers and shit in case that was messing some ad-window I'm supposed to be getting and nope, no difference.

hmmm ... maybe someone could make a custom CSS (for stylish) to make the menu bar non-sticky then ... maybe that would help

other than that - i'm out of ideas, sorry :(

Speaking of Edge, I tried the beta of the new update a few days ago out of curiosity and they went full Chromium so it's actually a pretty good browser now (or when the beta build will launch officially) It also supports all Chrome(ium) extensions.

lmao at the doc getting taken down. What exactly in the ToS did it break?


I feel like I could probably make something like this, given enough time/depending on what's available through Steam's API. Like if they give you access to user generated tags so you can use that to prepopulate associations, etc.
I'm not familiar with the Steam Web API and I haven't checked thoroughly since I'm on public transport... But I can't even find a way to retrieve tags or the list of similar games already generated by Valve: ISteamApps Interface (Steamworks Documentation)

Anyways, this reup should work (for now)



No idea

Wait there's a TOS for Google docs!? What if I'm writing a murder mystery story, will the cops come for me?
It's super unlikely that it was actually scrubbed by Google, more likely is people that saw it and didn't care for it flagged it and it got automatically suspended. You could appeal it with Google and they'd restore it and probably prevent it from happening in the future.

You can put basically anything on Google docs / drive, and it won't care until someone flags it OR occasionally something big and clearly illegal (full movies get dumped into shared spaces on there, for example) will get automatically removed.

Edge going to Chromium is weird. Just looking at the preview for a minute is enough for me to know it's a lot better than the original version. The context menu has useful things in it, for one. But if it's just Chromium, why wouldn't I just use Chrome, or another Chromium browser like Vivaldi? They got summa 'dat secret sauce? I guess it's for better retention, keeping new Windows users on Edge instead of downloading an alternative.

That does seem pretty nice, but I can't live without a numpad. I'm currently using the Corsair Gaming K95 Platinum which I like, but it's also a bit too big... could easily do without those G1-g6 buttons, that I only use for csgo

One of the things I really miss on Steam are the 4-packs.
A lot of cool multiplayer games coming out lately that I would've liked to play with friends, but everyone having to pay full price for a copy makes it hard. Third-party key sellers don't really seem to offer it either (although having a discount on every copy, as is the usual case, does help), I think the last time I saw it offered was during a chrono.gg deal.

Chrono could really try to bank on that. Their deals usually aren't the best, but they would become instantly more relevant, at least for me, if they start offering 2 and 4 packs more frequently. But yeah, the age of 4-packs on Steam is long gone.
