At this point Epic must be INTENTIONALLY making their stores unusable I don't buy any games from Epic, but I claim their free games every week. I'm checking the mobile app and I could NOT find my library anywhere so I looked it up… it DOES NOT EXIST. Their OFFICIAL info says "browse around 🤷‍♂️"
Screenshot of the Epic Games support page for how to reinstall purchased apps.

To reinstall a game you previously redeemed or purchased, follow the steps below:

Check if the Epic Games Store application is updated to the latest version

Find the game in one of the sections available in the Epic Games Store app. Examples:

Gee, I wonder why they're SUDDENLY making such a big deal about this right around the same time it's becoming more and more obvious NONE of these companies are anywhere near profitable ALMOST like they want regulations to prevent further competition from entering the market 🤔

Sell Windows to the Linux foundation for 1¢ and make it open source so people can strip out all the ai nonsense And yes, I'm aware that will NEVER happen. At this point I don't care how many headaches fully switching to Linux may cause me there's NOTHING Microsoft could do to get my trust back

It's actually an OLD problem of a disconnect between poster design and rules around crediting The highest billed actor has to have their name to the left, and I think there's different rules for if they're equal costars Now, WHY they didn't just flip the poster I do not know 😅

TWENTY YEARS AGO I bought my first iPod SPECIFICALLY to have control over the music I listen to Today ALL my music is loaded on my Plex server that I can stream anywhere in the world If nobody I follow online recommends it I'm not going to hear about it

I literally only listen to rips of my own CDs and Bandcamp albums on my Plex server. I only add new music when it gets recommended by people I follow who mostly have similar tastes I know NOTHING about "popular" music of the last 20 years and I'm fine with that

Hey, ProPublica reporter Jake Pearson here. I’m taking over the account to tell you about my new story. For months, I posed as a problem gambler on DraftKings to test the company's "responsible gaming" safeguards. Spoiler alert: They made me a VIP — and I lost $10K. Here's how it all went down. 🧵

I think that may GENUINELY have been why they chose red. You can have a "tense" medical scene without showing blood that would change the age rating

My first thought was "Are these just supposed to be Bajorin style scrubs?" but I double checked and they were using them in season 2 TNG
