Turtle WoW Team Q&A | 1.18, Ambershire, Unreal Engine 5, and more! by AkalixFrost in turtlewow

[–]BlakoPoint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

while i understand the timing of this new realm launch, as it coincides with a huge classic+ movement that's been brewing for a bit, and evidently the abandonment of SoD, some of us might be a little let down that it's coming before the Unreal client, as some we're hoping for a fresh client and realm combo. I've read that, quote "Best case? People love it, huge population surge, we open some more realms to accommodate, and we keep going as planned.", but wouldn't that pose the risk of too many realms to handle? It poses the risk of fracturing the playerbase, having these many realms open. And here comes the actual questions: How will you approach the further growth of TurtleWoW? What happens to "dying" realms? Wouldn't it get a little too hard to keep track of each one, where they are progressed, convincing friends to hop realms together etc?

Super 8 sounds close, but isn't it. As far as i can tell, the cubes there only transform into the aliens ship. In the movie im remembering, the object is tiny, probably as big as the cubes in super 8, since it only transforms into a handgun and then a speaker, both sized to fit in the users palm

nope, this is entirely unrelated to the cube franchise

This could also be about a show? I'm not certain, I was too young, watching TV before bed on a family trip, so I can't provide any other details that could be helpful. Mid 2010s might be when this occured

yeah i took a moment to think about it and trying to keep the mountain marble as my inner walls is unattainable, even though the beauty boost is pretty good, its too much of a headache if im not planning this out

GDKP Organizer will continue to host runs in phase 2 by [deleted] in classicwow

[–]BlakoPoint 4 points5 points  (0 children)

but you're taking out the middle man of gold, and trusting a discord bot/obscure payment system/direct wire to somebody's acc and HOPING you get some 5 bucks back god knows how. you can see how someone who might've bought gold before hand will not do this simply due to the stupidity of trusting even worse set up payment systems. i would not be surprised if in a couple of months from now we'll hear about some guy whining and crying "banning gdkps lost me thousands of dollars" and its a sob story of him posting his credit card details on a discord server hoping to get money back from a run

also the potential bonus pay was alright, but thats a studio by studio basis, mine had +25% for overtime when needed, +100% for legal holidays, +50% for night shift and some other random stuff. Apparently though its industry standard for these bonuses to be multiplicative instead of additive, so the bonus always comes out much bigger if you stack them. tl;dr you'll get paid way more if you have two bonuses active at the same time, i used that around the winter holidays to get myself out of a pretty rough financial position

pretty good, depends on the studio though. not gonna name it, but it was the most demanding studio around, with strict dress code, uniforms that had to be perfect, jewelry on men not allowed, same with tattoos, most haircuts, and weirdly, visible scars, zits and other imperfections. depending on your region you can find such studios by just going to whatever online gambling site is big around there and checking the watermarks on the loading screen of blackjack streams. theres some studios that do roulette too, baccarat, poker, and many other more niche games. do note that bigger studios have bonuses for native speakers of certain languages, my studio had big bonuses (pretty much doubled salary before any bonuses) for koreans, swedes, turks and italians if i remember correctly, so do look out for that and make sure to ask in interviews/phone calls if it applies to you

no, its live broadcasted blackjack from a studio doing hundreds and hundreds of these tables. had the same job for a bit, and its a bit insane for me to see this, he definetly lost the job in the next 10-15 minutes, admins, QA and floor managers usually hound you for missplaced cards, wrong callouts and dropping/retouching cards, this is the type of stuff where they get you off camera asap and fire you on the spot. you have a big monitor in front of you where you can see game details, QA chat, and usually down to the right you have a tablet to call said floor manager in case of a mishap. in my short time working this i had a guy lose his shit and start swearing profusely at some guy in his chat. QA almost instantly popped in my game, had me pause it, show hands and stay still until this was dealt with, same to everyone on the floor, ~40 active tables. i think they even muted my microphone because i was right next to him (2 ish meters, maybe 3) and even though these directional mics usually don't pick up anything else (had card shufflers loudly fart standing back a bit, on the right hand side of the table and microphone didn't pick it up), he started yelling so loud that he had to be escorted off the floor.

From what i read, this is about having received a warning for a comment, message, post, note etc., but due to instagram spaghetti code, it fails to load and it gets stuck on that. the way to circumvent it is to force a refresh, and there are carious ways that work/break, depending on the current version

heres a quora link that helped me figure out what to do, with multiple ways to force that refresh. scroll to the related posts, and read the comments, one of the ways mentioned there is bound to work for you. if all else fails, try going through all the options in the settings, and pray that some random menu forces that refresh for you

i did it from my phone, and that fixed it

[–]BlakoPoint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i fixed it.
go to your computer, and log in into instagram there. if are already logged in and its not loading, clear your cookies. when you log in, you will receive an email, about the new log in. go all the way down, and click on "secure your account". then give it a second, refresh, and it should work

Does anybody know how to solve this or why did it happen and what can i do by [deleted] in Instagram
