The crew 2 was $1 on steam. I use linux. The game has anticheat :(
One-size-fits-all batman cat mask was not so one-size-fits-all
For context - This cat’s name is batman.
And not Catman?
Let’s not be silly now.
Batcat*
That definitely looks 3d printed, and I bet the files for that are online somewhere…
Pretty sure I could make one in the right size if you post measurements?
Yeah the printing lines were not even sanded off the top.
I do want to thank you kindly for the offer to print one up. You Rock! But shipping to Canada would probably be ugly.
I hope to pick up a 3d printer this winter and if I manage it I will use this as a learning project.
A Creality Ender 3 can be gotten on sale for under $150 USD. It’s a great entry level printer if you want to learn the how’s & why’s of printing & like to tinker.
If you want to just push a button & have things work 90% of the time, I’d go with a Prusa MK4S, but those start around $800 USD…
Good luck on your printing journey! It’s a fun little combination of crafting and tech.
Tax refund.
I didn’t make enough money for the year to be taxed so I got all of it back.
I hope to get a refund for my train ticket from last Thursday where the train was just cancelled.
Online request didn’t work, so I have to go to the train station today and waste even more of my time.
Ordered energy drinks on Amazon because I couldn’t find the flavor at the grocery store anymore (Monster Nitro Cosmic Peach). The estimated arrival day got pushed back twice, and then the status changed to say that the item was late enough that I could claim a refund. I punched the tracking number into the UPS website and it said that a shipping label had been created, but the package was never actually handed over to UPS. My guess is that the seller ran out of stock and decided to do nothing about it and just wait for me to refund, but I guess it’s also possible that someone at UPS swiped the package instead of scanning it into their system.
Either way, I did get a refund through Amazon support.
$26 on broken wine glasses from Amazon. $7k from my 2021 taxes after having my ssn used by a stranger and then the paper forms getting lost in the mail twice.
Got diapers instead of a laptop from amazon.
That’s actually part of the shipping package for new Windows boxes due to Recall and all the other shit they want to stuff in there.
Lol… Yeah, don’t buy things like phones or laptops from amazon. Other gadgets seem to be a better bet (like bluetooth speakers, smart watches, etc) but for some reason laptops and phones seem to be the most scammed.
Lesson learned indeed.
Well the main reason is that those are a lot more expensive and easy to sell.
A game I only bought because someone else wanted to play that together on a private LAN party. That person then announced that they couldn’t show up. And since I was terribly uninterested in playing that game on my own and only bought it for just that occasion, I refunded it after that news.
Kerbal Space Program 2.
Yeah it’s looking really bleak over there…
I guess technically a refund? I returned tools I rented from O’Reilly to fix the timing chain on my truck. 250,000 miles and still runs like a champ, just ignore the noisey lifter haha
Train ticket!
I got it because I ended up being able to catch an earlier train, instead of the train I was expecting to catch and had bought a ticket for.
Ordered a shelf, it was never handed off to the courier. Complained, got it redelivered but they sent it to the wrong address. They seem to have refunded me twice… haven’t received any money back yet, but the shelf is due to arrive tomorrow so we’ll see what happens
Many months ago I got a refund of around $250 on an online course because I changed my mind after my purchase. It was an amazing course but I didn’t see myself using the knowledge in the future. Good thing I got a refund in time.
Bought an ECM for my vehicle. It didn’t work, truck wouldn’t prime the fuel pump or start. Returned it.
I’ve been fixing up an old motorcycle, and the weekend I was finally ready to try starting it I discovered an issue in the electrical system. I discovered this by blowing both of the fuses I had for it. I ordered new fuses from Amazon that would arrive Monday, but then decided Saturday morning that I didn’t want to wait, so I replaced the existing fuse holder with a more modern one so I could get fuses at the auto parts store, and returned the older style fuses when they arrived
What are ya building? Old motorcycles are my jam!
I’m currently rebuilding my '73 triumph for the 5th time. This time as a bobber with a bolt-on hardtail.
Mine is a little different! It’s a '69 Honda CT90. Used to be my dad’s, and about a month ago I brought it back from my Grandpa’s and tore it down nearly to the frame to clean and rebuild it
Oh man. I had so much fun on these. Great project!
I’ve learned so much! I’m currently dealing with hassles around the title, but once that’s taken care of I’m going to use it as my daily driver
Online grocery order had a like-for-like product substitution, but the substitution was from a producer that uses a slightly different set of ingredients, one of which I have an intolerance of. Sending it back garnered a refund… and might have helped train an algorithm somewhere.
That is, if they have some kind of semi-random procedure to choose which customer gets a substitution, someone else who’d be more likely to accept it might get it instead, and I’ll get the product I can eat.
I think those substitutions are picked by the person filling your order. We got a hilarious substitution from Walmart once. My wife ordered a bottle of thyme or oregano or something similar. They were out of stock so the worker went to the garden center and substituted it with a fucking potted plant of thyme or oregano. We both laughed our asses off at their choice but it wasn’t what we needed.
The place I use allegedly uses robots to pick the orders, so, in theory anyway, it’s a machine making the decisions. Or someone sat in front of one, rather than on the warehouse floor.
My grocery store ways texts a photo of what’s available and I tell them what will work.
