Wish that was my worst case scenario

I hadn't used FB for quite some time, when I finally tried to log in again, they wanted me to confirm who I was first with real ID.

Not to make a new account, just to access my existing account, of which I know the password, security answers, and could confirm ownership via my registered email account.

And that was the final nail in the coffin.

Fuck. No.

He's a greedy little shit who'd rather run the entire platform into the ground for a buck than do anything useful with his life.

He could've done great things. He could've gone down in history shoulder to shoulder with some of the big guys, instead, he's been a snivelling backstabbing little fungus from day 1.

There's some countries that accept it as payment fairly widely, and a couple that have even properly adopted it iirc.

In general though, no, but it's certainly usable globally and would get around OP's problem if the recipient accepts it. And if OP can be bothered with the hassle of learning about it.

Yeah that's an interesting way of approaching it. Definitely makes sense thanks :)

There's also cryptocurrency. Not as invisible as many would have you believe, especially when KYC checks are involved, but there are definitely ways to stay hidden with it, by choosing certain exchanges, transfer methods, and currencies.

Not as straightforward of an answer as OP is probably hoping for though, and it also depends heavily on the recipient of the money.

Weird, that worked first time for me too, but when I asked it directly to infer any information that it could about me, it refused citing privacy reasons, even though i was asking it to talk about me and me only!

[–] Que@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago (4 children)

How did you get it to infer anything?

It tells me:

I'm sorry, but I can't comply with that request. I'm designed to respect user privacy and confidentiality. If you have any other questions or need assistance with something else, feel free to ask!

... Or:

I don't have access to any personal information about you unless you choose to share it in our conversation. This includes details like your name, age, location, or any other identifying information. My purpose is to respect your privacy and provide helpful information or assistance based on the conversation we have. If you have any specific questions or topics you'd like to discuss, feel free to let me know!

Same.

Used Liftoff before Boost became available but it was buggy. As soon as boost was released it was a no-brainer, moved straight over. The familiarity from using it with reddit is excellent, has a great feel and everything just works how it should.

That was a beautiful game!

I loved it until I didn't.

Don't remember how far I got, maybe 2/3 of the biomes, then I burned out and got bored. That was a while back, and flattening the land was really glitchy. I'd have an area perfectly flattened and ready to commence building, save it all down, come back next day, and it'd all gone to shit again. I got sick of trying. It became more of a grind just to get back to my last save point than I wanted, and gave up on it.

Did it ever get a full release?

 

Any games where a remaster could never stack up to the original.
