@Tyranexx Ah, fair enough. We have the same kind of construction with days off over here. And seeing as I came from nothing, other than being self-employed, I've only "amassed" 80 hours of free time up to now, but seeing as I didn't really have a summer vacation, and between that already present situation and the whole living and working under COVID restrictions thing, I REALLY needed some time off to recharge the ol' battery, so I chose to take time off as of today, until Tuesday the 5th of January, so that will be my first "back in the office" day of next year.
I'll worry about summer holidays whenever they come. If they come at all, seeing as the current forecast is that we'll be under restrictions until at least May/June, so we'll see how things go. But those are worries for later. Right now, I simply need this.
@SM3DASislit They actually did use to have an "emoji tray" (didn't even know that it was called that, I always just called it a menu bar for emojis), but for some reason or other, they decided to remove it from the comment window. But no worries, between me, @Tyranexx and a couple of others, we'll bring you up to speed as to what the resident emojis are. Just as long as you don't go overboard...
EDIT:
Haven't been able to find an NLife alternative for that "thumb on chin" emoji that you like to use, though. I've searched and tried all the options from emojipedia, but as with some others, some just don't work on here.
And in that case, I simply decide to not use them at all, because as you can tell, I really don't like these tiny ones. I hate it when I have to squint to see whatever the hell is posted in some comment.
@WoomyNNYes Nope, can't say I have. Then again, it could be in my spam filter. I use gmail, so who knows. Either way, besides sometimes having looked at some Instagram accounts, I've never made any use of it myself, seeing as I hate social media, so you won't ever see me on there.
But as @BruceCM has mentioned, I would consider changing your password, and a good one is always to check the actual address that the mail is coming from. I don't know if you've ever received any other mails from Instagram so you can compare, in which case it's usually instantly clear if it's genuine or not, and another thing you can do is send them an email yourself (to their REAL info mail) to ask about this mail.
I assume that there's some link on Instagram's home page where there's either a contact form or a mail address that you could use.
Either way, never, and I do mean NEVER click on any link of a mail that you don't fully trust. That's rule #1,
no matter what else happens.
@HotGoomba___Rebrand Don't bother asking him why. Most of us will never understand his weird type of humor, let alone his thought pattern. And the fake Pokémon card wasn't even funny. Spelled incorrectly as well. I wonder if he made it himself.
EDIT:
Never question @ogo79, though. He's the master of "take this" jokes, and he actually IS funny. And he knows when to apply them, contrary to our strange friend Anti.
WooHoo...!! 😄😄😄
I have finished Sly Cooper 2 PS3 just now.
It was really hard during battle against Clock-La (Neyla became Clockwerk) as i have to aim the machine gun almost perfectly toward her head and her misiles (i failed a lot during this mission), then smack her eyes after i chase her in the sky, then removed the hate chip inside the Clock-La head by Murray and Bentley.
I felt bad to see Bentley got injured after being crushed by Clock-La head after removing the hate chip. 😰😢
And that was the reason Bentley use wheel chair on Sly 3 and Sly 4. Still feel sorry for him to unable walk normally anymore. 😔
Tomorrow i will continue Sly 3 PS3 and still waiting for my XBOX 360 E USA with the games and Sly Cooper Thieves of Time PS3 delivered to my house.
Oh, yeah, I sort of assumed he'd double-checked the email was from Instagram .... Although you'd soon notice if any link was taking you anywhere else & settings should prevent anything auto-downloading, apart from needing permission to install anyway!
@Eel@Octane can I interest either of you in enlightening some of our newer members about the no-no that is multi-posting? Oh, and it would seem to me that the poor chap is also quite busy trolling people that don't agree with his "facts"...
@ThanosReXXX
I felt during year 2020 i have experienced a lot with the games that i have never interested before. Let's say Ratchet & Clank games, Sly Cooper games, Dragon Quest Heroes 1 PS4.
I quickly enjoyed Sly Cooper 2 PS3 as i finished that game just now (took 2 weeks to finish). I have never played that game before, never realized if that game have surprising experiences as 3D platformer games with sneaking and puzzle solving.
As for Ratchet games, before that i was very 100% strict no shooting games whatsoever reasons but now i allowed Ratchet games and the clones (Ruff Trigger, still haven't owned yet) in my gaming place after very long deliberation, considering also from my Metroid Prime Federation Force 3DS purchase.
Oh, for Kinect game recommendation last time, i think i found the 12th Kinect game i will consider and that's all wrap. I will consider Minutes to Win XBOX 360 version with Kinect requirement.
After long deliberation also about XBOX machine, considering from the availability factor from Ebay, i have decided to keep only 4 XBOX Exclusive games (DDR Ultramix 1 - 4) for XBOX Classic (No multi console games for XBOX machines).
The multi release consoles games i have decided to play either PS2 or Gamecube version as some old XBOX classic games in USA version are not really available as many as PS2 / Gamecube version.
@Anti-Matter Well, not that you HAD to change your gaming habits, but personally, I think that in general, it's never a bad thing to be able to widen your perspective on things, and not just on games. And also to be more accepting of other people's tastes, even if they don't reflect your own taste. I don't mind that other people like other games than I do, because if they like it, then it's good that they have these choices. The more the merrier, I say, so I don't feel offended about there being other types of games that I don't want to play, because I know they are suitable for other people.
So, in short, I honestly believe you've made some progress, and that is most definitely a good thing.
