!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.

Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.


2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.


I should not need to explain this one.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.


Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

Ew, touching the bottom of an optical disc

[–] ouRKaoS@lemmy.today 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I remember having to clean up after my cousins coming to my house, playing every game I owed for 30 seconds each, fingerprinting all the discs, and not putting them back in the correct cases.

...is this where my anxiety and anti social issues came from?

Life hack: ask your parents to help clean up the messes caused by their own decisions.

This can also be used for Resetti situations. If it's mum's fault the mole is yelling at you, get the mole to yell at mum instead.

Yeah, this is bad. Like feeding a horse without tucking your thumb under your palm.

And then realizing you put the disc in backwards

[–] CuriousRefugee@lemmy.ml -2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Unless it was a GameCube disc, in which case backwards would have been correct, because up is down.

Hm, I bought mine used and hacked it to run isos off a hard drive.
