If anyone needs me I will be in the museum, lying down next to the bog bodies.

Did people really memorize phone numbers before cell phones, or is that just a movie thing?
2? Questions
I was watching some old shows from the 90s and noticed people would just dial numbers from memory - like they'd call their friends or family without looking anything up.
Made me wonder if that was actually normal back then? Did people genuinely have all their important numbers memorized, or did most folks keep a little address book or written list nearby?

Per Reddit: Steam adult developer in the UK is sitting on a USD equivalent of six figures, can’t find a bank to take his money because the developer creates adult games

I develop adult video games on Steam. I can't find a bank that will actually let me withdraw my money from Steam. Can I get some advice?
Game has sold quite well on Steam. I've got almost £90,000 ready to withdraw after Steam's cut + VAT taken off.

However, it's been 2 months now and I can't find ANY bank in the UK who will let me withdraw my money from Steam.

I've been banned/refused/unable to get a business account with:

Wise
Revolut
Monzo
Monese
Chase
Starling
Nationwide
Halifax
Barclays
Lloyds
RBS

It always comes down to, "Where did you get this money from?"

"It's coming from games I sell on Steam."

"Can we see the store page?"

"Sure."

"I'm sorry, we can't do business with you at this time."

It keeps coming down to a commercial decision purely because I make adult content.

What the hell am I supposed to do? I've pretty much exhausted the whole banking system. I just want to be able to be paid for products I've sold.

This is "debanking", and its a problem that has plagued sex workers for decades. It isnt right when its targetting sex workers and its not right when its targetting game devs and creators either.

Give paypros and your givt reps your grievances and demand that debanking of adult content stop

YOU deserve to know that you are perfect WITHOUT appealing to ANYONE. Including yourself.

You are wounded and deserving of unconditional love and aid to bolster you and help you understand that you are in NO WAY WORTHLESS.

Fearing others is not normal.

You are an EQUAL to them.

You. Have. Value.

“If I had just been better, they wouldn’t have had to hurt me like that”

If that statement made you feel disgusted, that’s normal.

If it feels reasonable, or you agree with it, you are likely a victim of a severely abusive environment with internal wounds that DESERVE future care and healing.

The woke finally came full circle to bite my ass. I am doing Stickerfest next weekend. And my local inclusive printing company won't print what is my best selling item. This sticker is so popular it literally pays for all the other stickers I order. But no-no words are not allowed.

Taken from the OBS forums but I've been looking EVERYWHERE for a way to add pronouns to chat in OBS and I JUST FOUND OUT HOW TODAY. So I'm making a post here for anyone who also would like to know. #twitch #streamer #streaming #obs

A grey background with text explaining how to turn on pronouns in the chat box in OBS. Text reads: "Here's how to enable the Twitch Chat Pronouns extension in OBS:
Open OBS and go to File → Settings → Stream → Advanced Options → Twitch Chat Add-Ons and make sure either "FrankerFaceZ" or "BetterTTV and FrankerFaceZ" is selected.
In the chat window in OBS, click the gear icon and click "Switch to Non-Mod Settings" at the bottom.
Open FrankerFaceZ Control Center.
A box will pop up. Click and drag to expand the box.
In the search field, type "pronouns". Click "Add-Ons" in the sidebar on the left.
Under the Pronouns extension, hit "Enable".
Type something in your chat in OBS to confirm the extension is working. (For this to work, you have to have your pronouns set on https://pr.alejo.io/)"
