welcome to 2025, bridge

so many css crimes. so little time. godspeed eggbug

today we also celebrate the shutdown of cohost :'(

@fredley there's a discord server but it's more dead than this

idk

oh apparently I did pin it?

@fredley I can't believe that this message has become such a meme but the original never got starred

I had convinced myself this was some guy desperate to play the algorithm and bubble his steam workshop submission to the top of whatever metric he needs to get his mediocre skin into the game and make royalties

@Wipqozn I had already opened steam authenticator on my mobile, man. I'm so happy I got suspicious firefox didn't autofill my login details

I've received like hundreds of these friends requests and I've ignored all of them but one. I've always assumed it was people trying to buy my unusual or some very old crates I still have. I wanted to know if that assumption was right. It wasn't! It's just scammers. Even if the accounts look like they're lived (thousands of hours in CS2; 3 years old accounts; level 20; a variety of badges; a bunch of comments on the profile) they could've been simply taken over by attackers

(this is what saved me as I was already logged in on the legitimate website)

if you go to a login page and your browser doesn't autofill your credentials, close the tab and google the login page instead

be careful out there. ignore unknown friend requests. no one actually adds people just to seek random strangers to critique their CS2 skins. even in this hellish gig economy garbage hellscape.

I got a close call with a phishing attack against my steam account today

@Nzall you can get some of that value with Multi-Account Containers addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/multi-account-containers

@Memor-X it will, yes

I wish this chat sent notifications via chrome

@Unionhawk this used to be broken as enemy spies would never trigger that autocall

anything in between and I just short circuit

2fort is honestly fine so long as both teams are either committed to playing the game or both teams are committed to fucking around

@Robotnik that one I might not have myself, I'd have to check

@Unionhawk lol I've grown old now I guess but I don't feel like I need to learn additional new maps to enjoy the game still

smh

how did you go this far without being introduced to the joys of conga

that is all

@Unionhawk 5 days and no one starred this masterpiece. what has this place become 😔😔😔

my legacy, undone 😿

oh no, not receiving attention 😔

you can torture me via the arqade discord server or just DM me on your average socials I guess?

I have an RSS feed set up in feedly showing me search hits of the string "badp" in here, but apparently this system has failed me

@fredley hey at least it makes it clear that you shouldn't break the pasta

@SPArcheon this will make a meta of mine very happy, ty

how is it going fellow gamers

as a moderator it's critical to keep core members of your cult happy and productive

@Wipqozn I was just trying to give people a mental health break 😇

so I'm obliged to assume the answer boils down to "K O L O N I S E E R D"

in case you're curious, the featured answer is posted by someone whose bio says "lives in The Netherlands"

this "week"'s Honorable Mention goes to "Is Belgium a real country?"

THE DIGEST IS MANDATORY
