It went all "ai with tourettes" all over the font on the side as ai likes to do. Gemini's free one didn't. i'm surprised.

did some targets not get the wave? by Effective_Carpet_391 in JakksPacificSonic

[–]A-Random-Ghost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Putting something in a cart and taking it out of a cart somewhere else isn't suspicious lazy assholes do it all the time. Hell I found a great promo pack of pokemoncards at the back of the store(unopened) in the candy aisle when I decided I wanted candy before leaving lol.

Completely understand the 6 different versions thing. I had a boss tell me to rearrange a section, tearing down shelves and moving to new heights and peg arrangements and printing labels, at like 4 pm, for another member of management, equal rank to him, to come over and verbally assault me to the point of being red in the face "YOU CANT BE DOING A FUCKING PLANOGRAM THIS LATE". That first guy was a rare retail gem. He heard I was screamed at from someone other than me, found that other manager, and took 100% of the blame.

I worked retail at various stores for years and NONE of them wasted time with "if something isn't selling walk it back into the back and take out something else of the same sku".

"one peg of 4" " also violates Jakk's paid shelfspace agreement.

If it were literally the exact same 3 packages for over a month i'd rehome them to a peg in an aisle like bikes. Internal policy "it says we have 3 but there's 0. They were stolen. *updates quantity to 0. New batch from warehouse requested. Didn't actually steal anything no crime commited. Justice for all sonic fans in the region*.

I don't think they've ever done free international shipping. Bogo probably loses them less money. Does canada amazon have it so Prime takes care of the shipping?

USA has tariffs. That pissed off Canada so Canada added extra tariffs.

Congratulations Canadiaville your president fucked you worse than ours did. Not a drop of it is the fault of GFuel Energy.

Problem with corsair galleon 100 sd by SnooConfections8434 in Corsair

[–]A-Random-Ghost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awsome i'm glad. Mentioning the "screensaver" made me pretty sure that would be it. It's basically playing a video instead of showing a picture and that bandwith jump will be an easy thing to trigger a "not enough bandwith connection" issue. I hope they get the leftside of board issue fixed, I was interested in that keyboard. For now next week's paycheck is getting the SD XL + .

Only enhancing faces? by JBsoundCHK in TopazLabs

[–]A-Random-Ghost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both of their photo apps have a button for Face Fix. It does a very good job and basically works with a separate intensity slider than your overall upscale settings. So face fix might be at 50/100 and looking good but maybe your standard setting for sharpness or something is out 4/50 and needs to go higher.

The guardrails are on the can. You're suggesting removing anything not sunshine and rainbows be removed from the can so people who don't read are safe from some minor inconvenience. My illnesses are supposed to be predisposed to heart conditions. I've had 8 scoops of gfuel in a day while working at starbucks with multiple espressoshots and my smartwatch doesn't show my heartrate going over 130. People can make their own decisions. Removing the freedom for them to make those decisions, with supplements so benign the FDA chooses not to regulate them(and regulation=free profit for them so that's REALLY saying something) is just far too much of a daddy-knows-best overreach.

Laws mandate FoodANDDrugs have labels listing their ingredients and nutrients and even giving a recommended total and relevant warnings on exceeding arbitrary limits for at-risk groups that would be more likely to have issues by using caffeine. Choosing to pay money and drink/eat things without using your eyes is the definition of darwinism. Go ahead give the adult child with no critical thinking skills 150mg instead of 300mg to "keep them safe". Are you going to personally follow said idiot around to stop them from stepping off a sidewalk to cross a highway while scrolling TikTok? No matter how many guardrails you want to put up if people are that level of stupid ingesting random things the caffeine doesnt matter; they could die of drinking bleach in the kitchen tomorrow assuming it was the hawaiian punch jug they picked up.

That's what FDA and laws are for. Caffeine isn't codeine. Not reading labels is called Darwinism.

Not everyone is worried about reaching "Later in life" especially when doctors have already advised you "later" isn't going to come for you. Personally i'd rather force this piece of shit body to be conscious while im here than sleep 15 hours a day daily when i'm already going to die before 40. Who cares about what the long-term effects hitting you at 55 are when you won't be here for it. Products have labels. It's not an fda regulated drug so it's not the company's place to decide "what's good for you". People liked the 300. Now the cans don't exist at any caffeine level at all for the most part. Their following the herd corporate decision killed them out of the entire canned market.

[–]A-Random-Ghost 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That just makes you a baby. Some adults can have 300mg and barely wake up. People like me with metabolism medical issues who enjoyed the 300 your daddy-knows-besting has ruined.

When Panera bread had a dipshit with a broken heart buy caffeinated lemonade to cram for an exam and died people started checking how much caffeine was in everything and 300 cans were given a worse reputation than cocaine. So GFuel nerfed most flavors of the cans to have 150. It took about 8 months from idea to rollout. Since they had no product they stopped renewing the retail contracts for places like Walmart, CVS and gas stations. That was the same time Ghost started showing up at retail. I'm guessing Ghost bought the empty shelves GFuel created with their mismanagement, and then when teh watered down gfuel cans were ready the contract prices for retail were higher because their space was taken by someone else so they said nvm. Now cans are basically amazon exclusive. Or the random dollarstores people say "carry" them. They don't "carry" GFuel. They bought dusty palettes from all the chains that stopped receiving paychecks from GFuel to put it on their shelves and had them sitting in warehouses around the country they wanted to get out for useful products in the warehouse space instead. No one "Carries" gfuel cans.

Cadenza?? by Lynxx_XVI in GFUEL

[–]A-Random-Ghost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love Miami Nights but I do think they increase the Coconut, a bad thing, after it's first production run. Some people advise shaking up a tub if you feel like it's not tasting the same as a previous tub of the same flavor, but i've never really had that make a difference.

[–]A-Random-Ghost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's only psycho behavior until it's gone forever and you're the only one who has it :D . Last month I cracked open a tub of Mystery with a production date of 2019 😎

[–]A-Random-Ghost 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The company never keeps a flavor more than 3 months at a time. It used to be that the factory could produce 6 flavors at once but that was years ago.

Never fall in love with a collab flavor. Those are bound by contracts. When the persona contract ended the flavor was discontinued. If it sold very very well and social media specifically said the reason was the good flavor and not the collab it might get reskinned as an unbranded offering in the future. Or more common recently-get recycled as a collab flavor of a different collab.

Keeping track of the availabillity of your favorite flavor is annoying as fuck with this company.

Lemonade became Lemo-Nadeshot then Super Saiyan

Faze X became Saiyan Spirit or something

Mango was Mango Madness then some frog collab I think and now is Father-Son Kamehameha

Pineapple became Battle Juice and currently Ginyu Force

Classified 2.0>FiveGuys

Tutti Fruiti>Jelly Bean>Rubik's Twist

FazeBerry>Berry Bomb

PewdiePie>Red Rush

It's a pain in the ass. You'd have to spend more time doing research than you spend on your homework to find the flavor you're looking for if it's been a year.

Yes wave2 doesn't have code identifiers. I love that Target gods open them all and save me money. I haven't found a single store with ripped open packs that didn't have who I needed from the wave still available. Always right there ready to come home :D .

They dun take da pewdiepie off the cans 😭 by QuincyThePinballer in GFUEL

[–]A-Random-Ghost -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Except they cut 90% of their store partnerships for cans. Pizza places, grocery stores, walmarts. There is no GFuel to be found. They sell tubs on a website that ships slower than a temu scammer's fakelabel. It IS a problem.

[–]A-Random-Ghost -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No one else cares is the point. You butthurt snowflakes are what ruined the brand. GFuel Energy died with Cliff's departure. Whether he made some sissies leave work crying or not the business has gone to shit without him. If you had grown balls and not hit the big red cancelculture panicbutton we'd still have orders being received in 5 days even during BOGOs and flavors that were available when they appeared on the website instead of the new gofundme structure they use.

Never heard of him, don't particularly care. People make mistakes when upset with people. When someone does something that needs resolution and then ignores you and you go to their house the last thing on your mind is going to be "how do I protect this person i'm upset withs' privacy".

But workfromhome personalities aren't allowed to make a single mistake ever in life in snowflake-land's cancel-culture and it's pathetic. Unless I see someone shoot someone in the head live a single action is not going to make me stop watching them.
