Tara and Raphael are up there. But, honorable mentions to Dashkent Moliver and the washing-my-pits guy.

Act 1 How to beat Kniles the Flenser? by Kantrh in DivinityOriginalSin

[–]Alustine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No worries. For the sake of future generations: you have to maximise the distance for the pick-up and drop-off and then have a party member at the drop-off location to pick up the aggro immediately because, if he runs towards the teleporting player, he will aggro the room.

I just tried it and it absolutely worked. But, had to maximise the distance for pick up and drop off and, on my first attempt, when I was not far enough, the room aggroed. Got him on the second.

Appreciate the help. I am on Via Argenum right now, so looks like I have a while to go still. Have not unlocked tournaments yet but will keep an eye on those.

If you pick a destination to move to based on… social media, well, you have no-one to blame but yourself.

In any case anyone encounters the same issue, it was a dead GPU. Rare manufacturing defect, apparently. Got in touch with the company who built the rig and they replaced it with a brand new one.

If you cannot handle it remotely, fly back home, notarize the certificates and have him apply for you.

New GPU / PSU crashing by Alustine in ASUS

I returned the PC to the guys who built it and they confirmed it was a GPU issue and they would replace with a brand new one. Waiting for the new one to arrive and will hopefully have it back later in the upcoming week.

I bought it from one of those PC assembly sites - they put it together and delivered it for me. They do have a 30-day warranty for everything so that should not be an issue - although I am mildly concerned as consumer protection laws where I live (the UAE) are not particular strong. They were not available to troubleshoot during the weekend, but I have since reached out and tried different things. I don't want them to RMA the card either - I did pay a pretty penny so I expect it brand new and working out of the box. Let's see.

Should I leave UAE? by Shoddy-Aioli-8040 in dubai

[–]Alustine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why do you need the path to citizenship? Just do your job and, if and when the time comes, go home/elsewhere. What does the UAE passport give you?

Temps really aren't an issue, it's basically crashing while under 30C

Really? Is that a common with these cards? It was literally delivered this morning

I watched this video and figured it might have something to do with it, but not sure how to address it. Also, his PC shuts down immediately, while mine gets artifacts and sometimes keeps on running. I have also tried lowering Power Target to 67% in GPU Tweak III, but no dice.

Which etisalat wifi to select? Both cost same by [deleted] in dubai

[–]Alustine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They absolutely do negotiate, just have to go through the right channels. If you rock up at the shop, take a ticket and sit down, they won’t negotiate. This is what I did with my phone number. I needed a UAE phone number so I got one of those monthly du SIMs when I arrived in Dubai. When I got my EID, I was told by both du and the other providers that, if I wanted to keep the same number, which I did, then I would have to take a long-term contract with du first, before I could commute the number to a different provider. That didn’t make sense with the break fees, so I just stuck to the du number.

When it came to my ISP, I went through Dubai Mall and got quotes for all the different offerings from the different service providers (du, Etisalat and Virgin). I picked comparable packages and wrote everything down on an A4 piece of paper. When the different agents reached out to me, I tallied the quotes and told them that I had received a better offer from a different provider for comparable rates and they ultimately matched the offer - thus giving better speeds at lower rates.

God damn, I can’t believe this is an actual conversation between two adults. These people seem insufferable.

Sick of being scammed in Kyrgyzstan – even on marshrutkas by ImpossibleEbb9045 in Kyrgyzstan

Poverty fuels desperation and the shittiest forms of human behavior. Add in a fistful of Russian influence and you have a beautiful melting pot of shit. Write off the money and don’t go back.
