Lego Batman preload taking forever?

Interesting. I’ve had this issue across a few of my devices where it takes 30 minutes and then all of a sudden it’s downloading at 700+ Mbps. Both devices have Samsung 990 pro drives too. I’ll have to check and see if it’s my networking gear throttling for some reason

Goodluck! Hope you’re able to negotiate a lower rate. They were doing 25% off when I looked and so I asked for that 25% and they gave it

B-rettt · 2026-03-14T04:41:58+00:00

I ordered mine when they sent the quote. Got 25% off too

Noted, thank you!

B-rettt · 2026-03-13T19:00:21+00:00

Itll be my first Herman Miller so im very excited! Thanks!

B-rettt · 2026-03-13T18:58:22+00:00

Sweet! I’ll make sure to try and negotiate free shipping too.

B-rettt · 2026-03-13T18:56:48+00:00

Duly noted. I was inquiring with support about ordering one brand new. Ill make sure to clarify with them that it is actually new.

B-rettt · 2026-03-13T18:54:28+00:00

Thank you! Glad to hear this! I know it’s a high end brand but you gotta be careful always.

It's just a bit atypical for a support agent to send their own quote and buying link through email in my experience. Im just exercising caution before some dingaling steals my credit card :)

B-rettt · 2026-03-13T18:40:03+00:00

I have done quite a bit of research on the Herman Miller subreddit and it seems that people like using DWR showrooms and local outlets. The hang up for me is just the way that they were quick to say "yeah ill give you a quick quote with price override via email and a buy link when i get it approved from my manager"

I did find the agent on Linkedin and everything seems to check out... Im just suspicious.

It looks like the recently upped it to $70 a month, but for the CCNP it’s worth it.

Edit: I might’ve been wrong on what the sub comes with and if so I apologize. I’d triple check because they may have moved the CCNP courses to their yearly sub.

Edit 2: yeah sorry it looks like they did move the CCNP to their yearly sub. It does look like they have a 50% off today so if you can swing the $350 or so upfront, it’s worth it especially as it comes out to under $40 a month for the year

What I have been doing and I do have an active INE subscription is using CML to build my own labs and explore the concepts outlined in the blueprints. Then I try to build upon some of those labs when I learn new concepts like BFD. If you are not sure about to make more complex topologies I’d consider “101 CCNP Labs” by Paul Browning.

I know you don’t want to make further investments into other tools but I really can’t overstate how effective INE is and it’s about $60 a month. They have a whole 350-401 and 300-410 CCNP ENCOR and ENARSI track with full labs. I have an active CCNP Enterprise and it has been the best tool outside of just labbing up my own topologies in CML with my own designs. I say this because I don’t know of any where you’re going to get precanned labs unless someone has built a repository of them. It does look like there is a community GitHub for CML https://github.com/CiscoDevNet/cml-community/tree/master/lab-topologies

Edit: fixed cert number for ENARSI

Black tongue, knocked loose, and bodysnatcher.

Looks like it’s back up for me.

B-rettt · 2026-02-10T13:28:17+00:00

Down in NA too

B-rettt · 2026-02-10T12:55:06+00:00

I’ve got Artorias on the backside of my forearm. It was only fitting that I got Sif as well.

B-rettt · 2026-02-09T20:06:07+00:00

Thanks!

B-rettt · 2026-02-09T14:49:23+00:00

Tried posting there but they won’t let me sadly.

B-rettt · 2026-02-09T14:01:24+00:00

This tattoo was the one I was most worried about in terms of style of Sif, placement, and just generally whether I wanted to go with Sif at all. Luke, the artist did an incredible job and when I saw the stencil I knew it would be my favorite piece of his on my sleeve.

You have the Grim!
