32 [T4R] #UK #Online how do i sell myself to you? it’s like i’m a mannequin in the window trying to catch your attention

i posted on here a week or so now and while i did get dms, a lot of those people ended up not replying after a while, even ones i thought were great and that we got on super well. i did meet a few people i think will be friends of mine for a long time, which i’m super grateful for! but i also got some weirdos too which is lame but it happens for everyone i’m sure.

sometimes i think i’m definitely too much for people, especially people who are i guess pretty ordinary, not to say being ordinary is a bad thing, but i do overwhelm sometimes, at least that’s the vibe i’ve gotten. i have a lot of energy and i’m super passionate about the stuff i’m into and what i care about. and i really like to take interest in other people’s interests or their careers or their pets or whatever they have that they want to talk about. but i think the enthusiasm can be off putting or maybe even try hard. over-friendly? too eager? i’m just happy to know you, honestly. i love people and i wanna get to know as many people as i can because you can learn so much from other people. and i would like to be your friend. i want to get to know you.

so for some clarify, please don’t message me with the hopes of anything that isn’t platonic. i don’t want to waste your time, i don’t want my time wasted, please message me seeking friendship first and foremost.

and the elephant in the room, i have pronouns and that’s either plain weird or just confusing for people, which is fine i suppose, but i definitely have had men contact me just to treat me like i’m woman-lite or whatever lol please don’t do that. i’m some kind of queer and i’m some kind of trans and i’m really happy that way! and if you message me i’d like it to be with the pre-tense that you’re super accepting and cool with it, even if you don’t fully understand, but you’d like to! i’m also comorbid for a couple of neurological disorders which i think is off putting unless you’re also neurodiverse, so please be patient with me if say, my social etiquette or social cues aren’t quite to par with what you may be used to.

i’m really open to people being curious and having questions because that means they are taking interest and want to learn, which is awesome! i want to learn about you too, even if it’s just “i’m happy with what life has given me and i’ve never been bicurious in my life and as far as i’m aware, my brain is ordinary!” because i still find stuff interesting in that too :)

ok i think that’s enough uh, warnings i guess. to scare off bigots and what not. let me introduce myself! my name is fray, that’s not my birth name, it’s one i chose for myself. i picked it from the character fray myste from final fantasy xiv. if you know that character, you’ll know a lot about me immediately. as the title says i am 32, i barely ever remember my age and i do have to ask my mother to remind me from time to time. when i was a teenager i forgot my birthday and convinced myself it was a totally different day in the same month for a little too long. don’t gave faith in my memory, because i sure don’t.

i live in the uk, but being in the uk isn’t a requirement to message me. i currently live like 20 minutes from the coast and the land is so flat here i can see wind turbines 5 miles out to see as clear as day from my house, which is fucking awesome. i have a small dog named jenny who turns 16 this september. she’s going to live forever. i absolutely love animals so if you have pets a sure fire way to start conversation is to unload just a backlog of pet photos to me, absolutely spam me, i will be delighted. absolutely elated.

i am not very active so hiking is absolutely not a way to bond with me, which seems to be the only way people want to bond on dating apps, what’s up with that? i never thought i would have to say i don’t want to go hiking with you so many times in my life, but here we are. the time of having no hobbies so we start hiking. or, some do, i certainly don’t. i’ve got hobbies. of the digital kind.

i really fucking love video games. i’ve loved video games since playing bubble bobble on an atari at 3 years old. i grew up with playstation, had a pc before most, and have always found escape and joy and a means of creativity in video games. i don’t play any pvp multiplayer ones anymore, i used to but now i’m just not up for it and i get pretty bad wrist pain so don’t expect any marvel rivals or whatever from me. i mostly play rpgs, i love games where i make a little guy, i obsess over their background and care way too much about roleplaying, i love hyperfixating on fictional characters and buying charms to put on my corkboard. one day i will have an ita bag just you watch. i write fanfiction you wont read and i will write 10,000 word meta posts about why i think gale dekarios from baldurs gate 3 is trans.

other things i like include reading books, my favourite series of all time is the southern reach and it is my autistic special interest. if you want to win me over you’ll say you’ll read it because of me. that’s practically an instant i’m in love with you. i love horror in all forms. i love movies. i kind of love tv. i have guilty pleasure shows that are so fucking bad but i will binge them. i listen to music like everyone else and my favourite stuff is usually video game osts. i think my favourite themes in media are transhumanism, ecohorror, biopunk and cannibalism.

ok i think that’s enough? that’s probably more than enough right? i really look forward to talking with you! i’m quite bad with remembering to check my reddit dms because i don’t get notifications so please be patient with me!

the badger barricade has one again failed. so close i could have touched!

will keep trying. i boarded up the entire gate, no holes to climb through now, but i guess it got its tiny little fingers in to climb up and over… i literally put food there, and a bowl of water, but nooooo… the forbidden bird seed is so much better…..🫠

brand new steam deck OLED. should i try to RMA?

for context i was playing a game and changing the frame rate in the … menu to find one that was stable. normally when you do this it flashes black for a second, and that did happen a few times, but then it just stayed black. and after a few seconds, these lines appeared.

i could still hear the game and me going through menus but the screen didn’t come back. i had to hold down the power button for 10 seconds to shut it down. upon reboot, it seems to be fine, but there was a weird audio distort in the game for a second after starting it up.

is this ok? has anyone had this before? this is my THIRD steam deck after several RMA’s and i’m starting to think i am cursed af

u/believeinyuna — 18 days ago

do you get this issue?

for some context, i was having issues with my steam deck and valve RMA’d it. one of the issues included these white flickering lines.

i asked them specifically if my steam deck was repaired, or if i was getting a replacement, and support said they checked and its a replacement.

the replacement however still has the white flickering lines. here’s a video of it on the new steam deck, i also have a video of it on the old one that valve saw.

the white flickering line is consistent, and always happens on the downloads page when i am downloading or updating a game in the same area (where the games image is).

i am on the stable version of steamOS and its updated. i tried both stable and beta on my old steam deck and it still happened.

does your deck do this? can you download/update a game and check if you get the line?

its wild to me that two steam decks could do this if its a fault with the deck itself. i’m wondering if its a bug in steamOS.

please let me know, as having more data can help me with talking to steam support. thank you!

i haven’t written an R4R in 3 or so years and i’ve kinda forgot how to do it so bare with me here lmao

my name is fray, i’m 32 years old and i use they/them pronouns, though i prefer none at all! i’m autistic, i have ocd, and i got some other stuff going on in ma soup brain that requires level 2 friendship to unlock so look forward to that if we vibe :3

i’m super into video games, especially rpgs, i like movies, particularly horror ones, i like sci-fi books more than fantasy books, and i spend a lot of time thinking about my own original characters!

question about DLC for DW8XLCE and DW8E on Steam

i keep seeing old posts and comments saying if you buy the costume DLCs for one, they’ll automatically work in the other. people reference a comment on the DLC pages saying that’ll happen.

however, i can’t find this comment on any of them. can anyone help me? did they remove this functionality? i’m only interested in the old costumes from previous games.

I want a handheld that can play Dragon’s Dogma 2. Are any capable?

i’d like to hopefully hit a steady 60fps (not in towns, because even monster pcs struggle with that lol) with absolutely no framegen on a handheld.

i currently have a steam deck oled, which cant play dd2 at all, its a mess.

if you play dd2 on your handheld and the fps is good, please comment 🙏
