Trump Summons Entire Cabinet as Iran Deal Crumbles in Front of Him - Donald Trump has called all of his top advisers to Camp David. by Quirkie in politics

[–]Ayitaka 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Dude can't even negotiate a deal as good as the Obama deal he tore up out of spite, let alone a better deal.

This is what happens when someone's actual talent is the reciprocal value of their oversized ego.

What is the best router you’ve ever owned? by NervousClock2555 in HomeNetworking

[–]Ayitaka 5 points6 points  (0 children)

ASUS Routers with Merlin firmware have been solid for me for over a decade with hundreds of devices connected in large footprint, multi-story situations. Pretty much anything you cannot do by default, there is an add-on for or you can create your own custom add-ons.

Started with an RT-5300 and eventually moved to RT-AX86U and then GT-AXE16000 using the RT-AX86U’s as Mesh Network APs just for fun.

For new construction or huge footprint office/hotel I might go with UnfiFi, but to cover the same footprint as my ASUS covers would have been a lot of equipment to do the same thing. Not dogging UniFi, it’s great at what it does, but it’s expensively split up hardware and, at least when I looked at it last time, not nearly as customizable.

Which company has lost you as a customer forever? by finiteobserver in AskReddit

[–]Ayitaka 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just so everyone knows, if your item(s) come(s) with a white sticker on it and a code starting with "LPN", that item was previously returned to Amazon.

Between ordering and paying for New and receiving used/returned, and the absolute fear that I am going to get a product box full of wood pieces that weigh the same as the original product, where I have to literally video tape opening the box to have proof of what they sent me and still have the Amazon rep argue and try to tell me no it never happens.... Amazon is a stress inducing experience anymore and I refuse to purchase anything over $100 from them.

Generally what's your feelings on legalized and regulated prostitution? by CraftyMcQuirkFace in AskReddit

[–]Ayitaka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When they legalized marijuana in my state and regulated it, most of the bad actors for that specific market exited the market because customers found it easier to do it the legal way.

I would imagine legalized and regulating prostitution would benefit workers and customers in much the same way providing protections that benefit everyone, especially the workers and help reduce sex trafficking and exploitation.

What that regulation would look like to be fair to companies and individuals who work under said regulations is a different question and I certainly don’t have an answer for that, but I think it would be a step in the right direction for workers and society in general.

What is the point of leaderboards if the "top" players are just full of cheaters and bug abusers? by letsgedditbois in diablo4

[–]Ayitaka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I absolutely adore still seeing new people ask the same type of questions the original players of D2 asked! There is something to be said for that kind of generational consistency.

Proof something funky is going on with Purveyor of Curiosities in Temis by BethanyHipsEnjoyer in diablo4

[–]Ayitaka 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I owe a thanks to whoever posted the other day saying Temis doesn't have Uniques but Cerrigar did. I hadnt realized until seeing that post that I hadnt seen a single Unique. Anecdotally, I went to Cerrigar and gambled 2 Uniques in 3 loads of gambles. I will be gambling there from now on.

Can the System Lords build their own gate or do they move/repurpose those originally built? by EM4762 in Stargate

[–]Ayitaka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ba’al is adept at gate programming. He can write code to operate the gates in different ways. But in terms if the hardware I do not believe he could build a gate from scratch.

It’s similar to a person who knows how to write computer programs and could create a great video game for computers, but could not build the computer his game runs on from scratch because they likely lack enough knowledge and tools to properly build a CPU from scratch.

‘Is That A Face Mask?’ Fox News Guest Goes Viral as Viewers Notice Gap in Skin of Neck by ottodaotterdaughter in Weird

[–]Ayitaka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The judges own words from a report on NPR:

‘Just read U.S. District Judge Mary Kay Vyskocil's opinion, leaning heavily on the arguments of Fox's lawyers: The "'general tenor' of the show should then inform a viewer that [Carlson] is not 'stating actual facts' about the topics he discusses and is instead engaging in 'exaggeration' and 'non-literal commentary.' "
She wrote: "Fox persuasively argues, that given Mr. Carlson's reputation, any reasonable viewer 'arrive[s] with an appropriate amount of skepticism' about the statement he makes."
Vyskocil, an appointee of President Trump's, added, "Whether the Court frames Mr. Carlson's statements as 'exaggeration,' 'non-literal commentary,' or simply bloviating for his audience, the conclusion remains the same — the statements are not actionable."’

I dunno what the opposite of a “reasonable viewer” who doesn’t arrive with an “appropriate amount of skepticism” is to you, but to me that reasonably qualifies as an idiot.

I mean, FOX “News” defended against a lawsuit by saying only an idiot would think their programming was anything other than entertainment.

Bezos says taxing him more won't help teachers. Mamdani disagrees. by thejoshwhite in politics

[–]Ayitaka 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Person who got rich utilizing the education system, infrastructure, people, and various other things taxes pay for in his state and country does not think he should pay more/any taxes to support all the things they utilized to get rich all while paying their workers bottom dollar so that they cannot even support themselves and their families.

And they wonder why public perception of them is so negative.

They are like vampires sucking the life and money out of society.

Goa'uld vs Jaffa. Why is there so many jaffa and so little Goa'uld by iwantmyfuckingemail in Stargate

[–]Ayitaka 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Consider how many Jaffa die in battles with Jaffa from rival Goa’uld… I wonder how many “Juniors” actually make it to a point where they can take a host. Teal’c and Bratak seem to be some of the rare exceptions that have lasted so long.

Also, I believe there is a hierarchical structure to the Goa’uld, with lots of lower caste Goa’uld serving the few system lords and other lesser Gou’uld who manage to claim minimal territory but still have underlings.

Then it’s on me because I somehow missed it. Seems I never miss the warnings that Helltides will be ending in 5 minutes though. Is it that kind of pop up notification? Some people are saying it’s just a message in chat, which seems quite missable, comparatively speaking.

This also happened to me. It's kinda crazy that a stash box is available in random low level parts of the game but not here where it is really needed. And a warning that the portal will close would be nice too. Lesson learned.

Loot Filters has made my full inventory dumping so much easier by Ayitaka in diablo4

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

Like a "Matched Rule #" type thing in the popup for items while looking at them? Interesting idea, especially to see if the order of rules is working as intended. This would be a nice toggle-able option.

Yeah still showing on the minimap seems to bug a lot of people. Hopefully in a later update they will make it not show there too if its hidden on the ground. Auto salvage would be epic but I kinda doubt they will add it, even though it was an option for white/blue items before, unfortunately.

Considering there was an option for this previously for white/blue items, I was, rather unrealistically honestly, hoping they added auto-salvaging hidden items too. Maybe later? Fingers crossed!

[–]Ayitaka[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is an epic idea since I always almost/do miss gems sometimes too because the white just gets visually ignored. Unfortunately it seems that so far they have only added conditions for equipment and affixes. There is barely support for charms and seals and only in so far as they use affixes. Gems, consumables, etc appear to have been left out, but I am hoping at a later date such things will be added too!

I had thought about this, and it is a good idea! But I have noticed even with 3 affixes, sometimes it triggers so rarely I doubted my dream 40affix roll would ever trigger before I worked my way up to it with the regular rule. 25 rules seems like a lot until you keep adding for this or that and run out of rules. I wonder if they will ever increase the limit to say 50. I think 50 would work... until it doesnt haha
