He was the main character on Silicon Valley

And it’s great my buddy’s first thought was that my dad lived a block away and is a doctor.

As a Dr’s kid nothing you have said sounds unusual for your job. My dad didnt like getting calls asking for free care but he was more than happy to run to the neighbors house when my buddy, aged 5, called at 3am and said “The baby is blue!”. That baby is 45 years old now and not blue.

The problem is we have to build bridges. We have to get the working classes organized to stop this. We cannot afford to turn away allies.

More than I could do on my Apple IIe at 64k.

Because Sierra games were doing it in the 1980s?

I think one of The King’s Quest titles did it first maybe Might and Magic did.

I think one of the point and click Sierra games came up with the hotbar or at least that’s where I saw it.

This is why Im glad they just got rejected in almost all of the patents filed in the Palworld suit.

Good to know. Thank you!

“…when I’m upset (which is admittedly ~90% of the time but I can’t control that).”

You should note that you are talking about your anger which you recognize is a problem for you and others. Yes it is a turn off.

You might currently lack the awareness and skill set to control your mood but this is something you can develop through therapy. It is literally what therapy is for. I hope you find what you need to resolve your anger.

Edit: You might find after having a discussion with a therapist that “your reasons” for being angry may not be justified or might be inappropriate responses due to things entirely unrelated to the matter at hand.

If you only contacted them once and then they banned you across several platforms ypu really had to cross a line.

I get that you are striving to find a way to make yourself out to be in the right but with every comment you make it clear that isn’t the case. Your behavior here really supports the notion that you just don’t understand how far off the mark you were.

No assholes like this are parts of both parties.

He’s the guy who did the Zero Punctuation game reviews for The Escapist so probably.

You gave all thenecessary details. Someone who owes you nothing didn’t follow through on their promise. You harassed them to the point of blocking you in multiple spaces. They would only do that had you crossed a line.

Do you not get that you have dozens of people trying to explain to you that you were in the wrong and why? No one is imagining anything here your behavior in this thread makes it really clear you have a massive chip on your shoulder. Get off line for a while and learn how to interact with adults.

No they blocked you because you were not being polite. You are 100% without question not in the right in this case.

That would only happen if they weren’t being polite or constructive. If they blocked you then you had to have been in the wrong based on how you behave here.

Your thread and account will be recorded for posterity as you keep missing the point.

The point is this guy owes you nothing unless you have paid him money or lent him money for this project with an agreed upon deadline. He doesn’t know you IRL and he has zero obligation to follow theough on anything he does for free.

You aren’t going to get shot. Dont give up just yet.

in this case it sort of makes sense as banks and credit card providers might be more willing to provide better terms of there are increased guard rails for accessing porn.
