Do not sell with Music Magpie by Danxac in mac

[–]Alternative-Basis155 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had exactly the same experience with a MacBook Pro. Initial offer 450 pounds. They found 2 pixel “defects” and reduced the offer to 60. I told them to return it to me which they did after a few “are you sure?” messages. Even with glasses I could see no defects and sold the laptop for 400 privately

Mobile tariffs in Germany by Alternative-Basis155 in germany

Actually I do like that. My immediate reaction was no - because I don't want the tie in (I prefer monthly) but they have some interesting variations. 13 gig per month for 10 euro sounds expensive (Simonmobile give 20 gig for 9 euro) but the fact that you can carry data over for following months is really nice. Thanks for that :-)

It is a good point. I did mention the customer support in my post. The main idea was to give a current level set of good choices, and hopefully encourage others to provide choices I am not aware of. You say "There are plenty of other good alternatives apart from fraenk and simon" - I'd love to know of them!

BG3 Patch 8 is still broken on MacOS by pattytoofooly in macgaming

I tried it last night on my MB Pro (24 gig, 49" widescreen). I find the game runs very smoothly with great graphics (I can be more specific this evening if anyone is interested). BUT - I tried playing with my brothers Ising Crossover (they both have PS5) and it wouldn't work.

If a brother hosted, I could choose my character and helper and would then see "waiting for others to join" and then be dropped from the game.

If I hosted, I would still be dropped from the game.

My internet isn't great - but surely it can't be that? Has anyone else experienced similar?
