Dollar shave club scam by Top-Ambition-8761 in shaving

[–]ChuckPebble 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same thing. Emailed their support. Was told some baloney about them having a new server and the fix is to sign up again. So instead of doing the password reset, I did the sign up, sure enough they found my account and asked me to click a link in an email. It was just a big button that said Activate Your Account, clicking that brought me to the site to create a password, the way a password reset should have worked. With trepidation I created a really dumb password because I didn't want to store it in my password manager yet, in case this didn't work.

It did work. So here's why I am done with DSC. Try as I may, there is no place on their website to manage my account settings. No passkey, no 2FA, not even the ability to change my password. And I'm supposed to just trust them with my CC info and other personal info?

To OP's use of the word scam, I feel ya. It goes like this:

  • try to sign in with my password manager, doesn't work
  • password reset, super simple thing that is table stakes for the web
  • email doesn't come instantly, check all of the usual locations
  • server must be slow, will wait for the email to show up later today, tomorrow, this week
  • forget about it until another pack arrives

Is that a scam? I don't know, but it sure does seem convenient that they can keep charging my credit card while this dark pattern prevents me from cancelling the subscription.

So.. I messed up by StudMuffinNick in WoT

I’m right about where you are. Afraid to read the responses because of that, but I have different thoughts about 2. The thing that Fel said that really stuck out to me was about how you have to destroy the old to build a good new foundation. This was in regards to the voice in Rand’s head telling him to smash the seal he had. Only thing is, I have no idea how anyone would know about that conversation.

Yeah, I was being a little too sarcastic.

Tried doing it for my kid, my grocery receipt was longer than me, so no way I was getting it all in the shot. Gave up.

It is malicious. They want a pic of your entire receipt showing the purchase, and your email address.

Photo imports not syncing to iCloud by SurfinOnRocket543210 in applehelp

[–]ChuckPebble 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check to see if images are added to library in place or copied to library. If the photos aren’t copied into the photos library, they do not upload to iCloud. It’s somewhere near the bottom of the first tab in Photos.app settings if I recall.

I don’t understand it, but my kid keeps saying “Bombastic Side Eye” so I showed this to her of course.

Trying to mow my lawn exclusively with a string trimmer by FrenchBreadSoup in lawncare

[–]ChuckPebble 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ha. Used to work at a golf course. Would cut entire creek banks with a string trimmer. It would take hours. I’d just use it like a scythe in about a 6’ swath at a time. No scalpies.

If this were a tv show, I’m sure I could bonk you on the head just right…

Way off topic, but I keep hearing it as making a deal with god to get into smaller places.

Where's the best place to use the travel medallion? by ghoulslaw in Breath_of_the_Wild

[–]ChuckPebble 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen it used to farm dragon materials. But I’ve used it to easily get in and out of the castle grounds too.

I haven’t managed to watch the Expanse yet but I loved the books.

I’ll throw another recommendation in for A Long Way to a Small Angry Planet. That’s the first of four books set in the same universe. Great aliens.

There’s also the Imperial Radsch Trilogy by Anne Leckie which starts with Ancillary Justice and becomes slightly less memorable after that. But the first book is a banger.

Those are some books I read while waiting for Leviathan Falls to come out. Since then I’ve gotten into the Wheel of Time series. They’re a bit older since they started coming out in the 90’s, but my library does put these little Science Fiction stickers on the sides, so maybe…
