Yeah I’m with you, the only time I had fun playing Dota was back in the day when I was playing with friends who weren’t toxic. I know it’s not the only game with that problem but it’s a shame!

 

A bit of context for anyone who hasn’t played Dota 2: Here a player (Rainino) is telling another player (Gh) that he’s good at the character he played (ES/Earth Spirit) but not nearly good enough to compete at the biggest Dota 2 tournament in the world (TI/The International). Gh then replies that if the other player were to check their game there is a digital copy of the tournament’s trophy with his name on it since he was on the team that most recently won at the time (with a shared prize pool of over $10,000,000).

This screenshot was posted by Rainino themselves on the Dota 2 subreddit but I thought it fit perfectly here!

Just to add to this, I also like to use the “donate for a friend” option to gift friends a donation to Signal on their birthdays. It’s also $5 but a one-off thing, they get a neat badge for 60 days and perhaps it raises awareness of the donation option a little bit!

Thanks a lot for sharing this! Decky plugins often break after a Steam OS update, which is understandable, but a bootloop is more trouble than I’m looking for right now…

Thanks for the heads-up! For anyone that’s confused like I was, turns out this is the same game as Bloodborne Kart, just changed enough for legal purposes. Considering it started out as an April Fool’s joke, it seems really high quality so far and I’m appreciating all the Bloodborne references!

Wow, thanks for setting that up! Just ordered an A4 print :)

Could you accept a world where someone does it intentionally as a joke?

I really like this! Do you sell prints anywhere online or anything like that?

It seems that Spotify doesn't accurately count plays for tracks under 30 seconds. I had a look through some of the albums I know of with short tracks and here's what I found:

In fact I found the MGMT album 11​•​11​•​11 has a 26 second long track with no reported plays.

So while it's probably true that people are listening to fewer full albums than they used to in the days of vinyl or CD, it seems more likely to do with Spotify only paying royalties on tracks over 30 seconds and the discussion surrounding that.

Mlem on iOS seems to have that feature under Settings > Filters at least!
