I want a remake of the original Harry Potter 1 and 2 games from the PS1. Not asking much, anything that looks nicer than this would do

Taringa, it was the go-to place for everything, especially content in spanish

I was struggling to find a job and my friend looked at my resume and was like, dude you need to put more bullshit there, add a bunch of stuff, even if it’s fake, no one cares, everyone does it. After so much rejection I was willing to try anything, fortunately a company hired me just around those days. But next time I’ll probably have to take his advice…

Football is being killed by FIFA, if anything

I remember when I got here it was a nightmare for the first few months when I didn’t have strong auth. It took several months to open a bank account and you basically can’t do anything without that stuff

Oh yes this QR code bullshit drives me nuts back home too

Been thinking of trying this. Thing is nobody uses cash anymore around here (Nordics). In supermarkets I know for sure I can use cash, but restaurants, bars or small business it’s going to be hit and miss. I guess I’d have to endure the awkwardness of asking in every single place if they take cash or not

Hell yeah, this was our jam with my friends back in the day

Me and my friends used to play a lot this shooter game called Time Splitters. It had some wacky characters and crazy guns. Good memories

This would be the best way. Unfortunately they made it the other way around. A screen at the door shows the code, and you scan it with the app.

In my previous gym the code was on the app, but I’m not sure anymore if it was static or it changed over time. But the reader on the door was awful, I used to spend a good 3 minutes trying different angles with my phone to make it recognize the code.

Ohh. This is exactly the side project idea I’ve had on the back of my mind for a few years now. Something minimal and straightforward, just to sharpen my programming skills and learn a couple of things along the way. Maybe I’ll get around to building it some day.

Yeah I’ve been saying this to people. Don’t get mad at GDPR, get mad at companies who harvest your data

I like to use cash. Used it all the time. But now I’ve fallen for the bank-card convenience… (especially self-checkout counters).

I’ve been considering to start using cash more again, but also I’ve noticed a bunch of places that don’t take cash anymore :/

Yes that’s a good point. I don’t have a lot of time to play so I try to stick with shorter games as you said in the post. Even if there is replayability I just drop it after I finish it the first time. For that reason I don’t play stuff like Minecraft and also rarely open worlds, I’ve played a few but try to stick to the main story

Am I the only one who just plays any given game once?

I’ve used Exportify (https://github.com/watsonbox/exportify) to get CSVs of my playlists. I do it for kind of disaster recovery scenario, so I’ve never actually had to re-import my playlists. Judging from the readme it seems it’s possible but tedious. And as for importing to a different service, no idea.

It does require you to log in with your Spotify account though. But I think it’s trustworthy enough and also you can self host it.

Taringa, ah, those were the days!
