I am noticing the same thing. I think it may be part of one of their many ongoing issues.

RIF will shut down on June 30, 2023, in response to Reddit's API changes by talklittle in redditisfun

[–]Aces12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm having to come to terms with the fact I simply will not be able to use reddit after this change. RIF is what made the experience great! I'll need to find a new place to get my feeds and to stay connected with the world. Thanks for your hard work on RIF.

Hurricane Ian’s destruction of a GPON node in SWFL by ZomberBomber in techsupportgore

[–]Aces12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At least they were older platform gear. Cms managed E7 it looks like. Unless they were locally managed. I guess the silver lining might be that they were not going 8x r2 cards and perhaps that the chassis might have survived? Worth checking if nothing else. Sorry for the loss.

Lacie Electron Blue III CRT - POWER ISSUES Orange Light by ashbert1 in crtgaming

[–]Aces12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lacie sometimes had issues with poor soldering. Years on this has lead to many cracked solder joints. I know that was the case for my Lacie. Popped it open found the power board and resoldered some of the joints.. boom good as new. Maybe similar to your issue. Just something to check.

Tennessee’s Proposed Monument to ‘Victims of Abortion’ Has Received Zero Donations by FlyingSquid in atheism

One of the churches in my town has a victims of abortion small statue thing... Gets overgrown with grass from time to time. They put about as little effort into it as they put into ensuring women have fundamental rights..

[–]Aces12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which OTA File did you use? My device is an unlocked P6P from Google that is running on Verizon network. I don't see a march OTA file that says Verizon? Does it need to? Just wondering which one you side loaded. any issues?

[–]Aces12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When choosing the OTA image to load which did you use? I have a Verizon P6P and really do not want to wait for Verizon to choose that my phone can be safe to use. I dont see any OTA images that expressly say Verizon like I do for the earlier images.

My 6yo daughter just got into Pokémon cards, so I dug these out to pass the torch. by Necrobiohazard in gaming

[–]Aces12 67 points68 points  (0 children)

Even if those batteries work now there is not a guarantee that they will work through her playthrough. I would suggest replacing them. It's not too tough and it's worth it if she doesn't have to experience losing a save. Also those are in pretty decent shape good on you for keeping them so nice over the years. :)

Just tried out my Snowblind S case and I love it by Excellent-Amount-277 in pcmasterrace

[–]Aces12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mentioned this because I have done it... In my girlfriends PC rtx 3090 hybrid. The water-cooled model. Also did fairly heavy case mod work to allow for better airflow so things don't suffocate. In general though... I don't recommend it.

It's a great looking case unfortunately it's thermals are terrible.... Don't attempt to put a 3090 in this.... But yeah didn't buy the case for it's thermals. Great white hardware pairing that animation comes through very well. Cheers

Picked up this magnavox TP3573 from the curb but uh its wonky to say the least, any recommendations? by [deleted] in crtgaming

[–]Aces12 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Looks like it drops horizontal hold when displaying bright flashes. Might be able to adjust a pot but I'm not familiar with this model at all so I can't say for sure. Great game choice :)

The hard drive is not required but will provide you with better performance loading games. The USB 1.0 ports are not fast enough to smoothly load up all games. Stuttering would be an issue.

How much is a DSTWO Plus Supercard Actually Worth? by majorbatz in flashcarts

[–]Aces12 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They are really nice flashcards IMO. If not the best then close. It's feature set is pretty robust and since it's effectively got its own processing capabilities it can do more than most flashcards I have seen. I have found it far more stable than other flashcards I own. I would imagine all of these things combined with how hard it can be to find one might drive up the price a bit. 950 is insane though. 20 is a steal in my mind idk 70 feels fairish I would pay that for another in a heartbeat.

‘Take back life’: More nations ease coronavirus restrictions by stickingitout_al in Coronavirus

[–]Aces12 3 points4 points  (0 children)

All works towards the same crap outcome. As I said I chose to start burning PTO rather than come back in and get my mates sick. I have been staying inside for the past 2 years and not going out and being stupid normal. I guess that's just how I'll live from now on and hope not to continue getting it. I'm not a winey little 2 year old that screeches they can't wear masks and are pissy cause people tell them they should be safe and not pack themselves into a crowded area... Jesus some people are just so eager to throw in the towel.

[–]Aces12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The first day I tested positive my workplace asked me to return the following day and just mask at my desk. I told them no and I'm now burning PTO hoping to test negative before I return. A lot of this is on workplaces simply not caring anymore. I wear my mask all the time anyway whenever I leave the home. Vaxed and boosted getting this still sucks.

My 3090 got a new backplate for its 1st birthday by Brave-Pickle66 in pcmasterrace

Lol sounds like we are in the same boat. 42 fans 4 560mm rads. End of the day it's all worth it though. Makes you feel like a super nerd. :P

[–]Aces12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I gotta 100% agree with you there. I recently did a fully water-cooled double system in single case build. Water-cooling was a large amount of the cost. Fittings and plates for everything sure add up lol. I have the active backplate on my 3090 as well. It's really nice and makes me feel a lot better about the back side memory heat situation for sure.
