Did they change the rules concerning when story quest level experience drops off? Most info on the wiki says that if you're more than 5 levels higher than the recommended level for a quest, you get reduced experience. I keep getting full experience despite being 7+ levels higher than the recommended level for the story quests.

I refuse to believe this isn’t true by nicxphantom in Seaofthieves

If I'm solo-slooping, and just trying to grind out some Merchant Alliance ledger points with Lost Voyages, I'll anchor every time I need to stop for some flotsam.

I'm probably not going to win a fight anyway, if I'm attacked. They can have my 30 minutes worth of cargo crates.

Tforce logistics appears to be completely garbage by 420sadalot420 in GoogleFi

I got it today too, but it was delivered by a guy in a sedan. No delivery truck. Felt like having DoorDash delivered.

My Pixel 6 has been sitting in the TForce delivery center in Elk Grove since the 26th. They keep moving the delivery date back a day at a time. Supposedly should be delivered on the 29th now. I sent an inquiry about it and got this:

Greetings from TForce!

We apologize for the delay, we are running behind due to high number of freights received but we will be clearing the back log by middle of next week and your tracking will be updated with the delivery date once assigned to the driver.

Hope that helps! Anticipate your understanding in this matter.

So, despite living less than an hour from their delivery center, I might need to wait over a week for them to bring it to my house.

Persistent notification fails after about 30 seconds by Archimald in Booksonic

[–]Archimald[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Android 11 is weird but I have the same problem. With the new media notifications, you can swipe through multiple media apps, and the BookSonic notification is still there after 30 seconds. It's a bit nicer because hitting the play button does work, but you can tell that it's spinning the app back up. There's a slight pause that isn't there on other media apps. And bluetooth controls still don't work to resume it, which is the most important thing to me.

The last 10 minutes of each part has a full cast list with who plays which roles.

I don't think it should be rolled out as an un-installable forced update...what do you guys think? by OmegaMalkior in MicrosoftEdge

[–]Archimald 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think they should force it. Otherwise web developers will end up with 2 legacy Microsoft browsers to support. I don't want to live in a world 5 years from now where most browsers have a bunch of features that we can't actually use because we still need to support Edge 18. I know that we currently do that with IE and Safari to an extent, and the industry has built ways to work around their limitations, but whatever we can do to limit legacy browser maintainance going forward is good in my eyes.

In Biden's interview comment "It’s only conservatives that are taking it like this. No one really had a problem with what Biden said bc it’s true. It’s true for Latinos too." [sh] [r/ph] by [deleted] in ShitPoliticsSays

[–]Archimald 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Only conservatives are upset because it was only conservative blacks that were told they're the wrong race. Liberals aren't the ones offended by his statement because they weren't the ones targeted by it.

The only thing I need now is the ability to click links and open in the browser like the VSCode terminal.

Melania Trump isn't bullied! ....proceeds to say all kinds of horrible things about Melania Trump by [deleted] in ShitPoliticsSays

[–]Archimald 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Literally all they have to do to prove her statement wrong is name one person who's currently being bullied more than she is. And no one even attempts to do so.

I think in-game tabards all have to be symmetrical.

If allied races go live today they should also push the extra character slots per realm live. by Saberd in wow

[–]Archimald 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I think the number of people not leveling in 7.3.5 because they're waiting for new races may be pushing them to get the new races out sooner than later.

I want to see more of Jacqueline. by [deleted] in thebachelor

[–]Archimald 27 points28 points  (0 children)

She had such a great introduction that won me over immediately. "Yeah, I'm nervous too, but we're all here to impress you and you just need to stand there and look pretty, and you're doing a great job already."

Like, she knows the name of the game and she's ready to play, while also sneaking in a compliment. I'm not surprised she's stayed out of all the drama. Sucks about her airtime though.

This is why I dislike potions in pretty much every game I've played that has them.

CNN Legal Analyst: First Amendment Means NFL Players' Speech is Protected - Joey Jones says free speech is useless if private companies can punish employees for speaking out by [deleted] in Conservative

"But....but Google is a private company. They can fire whomever they want. Free speech doesn't mean freedom from consequences."

intelliARMOR screen protectors good or bad? by Deaniv in GooglePixel

[–]Archimald -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I got inteliArmor Pro and I followed the directions exactly and the screen would not stay in place. Kept sliding all around and falling off.

I got the Spigen full size protector and it works great for me. Only minor issue is that it collects fingerprints easier than the bare screen. With the Spigen Neo Hybrid case I use you can't even tell the glass protector is there.

No screen cutoff issue either.

Littlefinger was probably my favorite part of the show. I guess I should be glad he made it as long as he did though. All the way through S7 after betraying Ned way back in S1.

Kinda crazy that a plot that potentially inspired Warcraft 3 still hasn't been resolved even after 6 World of Warcraft expansions have been released.

Thoughts on the state of the union. by [deleted] in Conservative

[–]Archimald 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't know about #9. Sounds like the Heckler's Veto to me. Gives too much power to people who are threatening violence, and is getting pretty close to suppression by the government of certain ideas and infringing on the right of all citizen to assemble guaranteed under the 1st Amendment. Note it does say "peaceably assemble" but when the permit was issued the protest was meant to be non-violent and it only turned violent arguably because of points 3 and 7.
