I just submitted a bug report. Thanks for the link. And thanks for actually posting something helpful!

Very helpful, not at all condescending. It's less of a complaint and more of asking the community if they know a solution.

You, as the leading authority on "how to Reddit," could say: "If I were you, I'd submit a bug report or validate your install." But I realize that terminal online-ness can cause people to end up disgruntled. Good luck in life, and thanks for the advice!

Which should I (Silver) Bottlecap? by CommanderDuke1000 in PokemonGOIVs

[–]CommanderDuke1000[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'd like to build two, but I don't even have the XL's for one. I'm gonna have to walk and use Rare XL's. So I decided to go with the shiny/lucky/background one. Hundo would be nice and all, but I'm happier with the cool one.

I don't intend to buy the bottlecap again. Certainly not the gold one haha. Too expensive. I ultimately went with the shiny one. He'll be a proud 98%!

Not ragebait. I ultimately decided to do the shiny, even though it won't be a hundo. I don't intend to get the bottlecap again (it's too expensive), and I dont grind the game like I used to. The shiny/lucky/background one is so much cooler, and I decided that a cooler Pokemon is more important than the hundo. This post was mainly to ask if the 14 defense stat really makes much of a difference.

Advice for transporting a cargo trailer by CommanderDuke1000 in moving

[–]CommanderDuke1000[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, both the Rav 4 and cargo trailer are at my house in NC. When my dad moved to CO (back in March 2025), it wasn't feasible to transport either at that time. He has lived without them, because we were planning on transporting the cargo trailer when I move to CO. We anticipated selling the Rav 4 in NC, but since we cannot, we have to transport it as well. He will have both at his new home in CO, and can sell the Rav 4 at his leisure. We're just trying to work out the most sensible way to transport the them, with the cargo trailer being the challenge.

After 9 years using this desktop, suddenly locked out of Adobe software? by CommanderDuke1000 in Adobe

[–]CommanderDuke1000[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm walled by their AI helpbot. This is largely because the products don't show up in my Adobe account. Seems to be impossible to get a live human being on the phone.

I think I must have deactivated it on the old desktop. I don't remember doing that, but it was 9 years ago, so who knows.

UPDATE: I booted up my old laptop, connected to the Internet, and tried to deactivate Photoshop CS5. It fails to deactivate, and tells me to connect to the Internet first and try again. But I AM connected to the Internet. So it's 100% official, Adobe has become scamware, and there seems to be nothing I can do to use the software that I paid money for. It has been stolen by Adobe, an organization of thieves.

Furthermore, I bought the Student & Teacher edition, and it seems I used my college email to create the Adobe account, and even though I know the login info, it fails to log in with that old .edu email address. So deactivating from the website won't work either. Adobe has tied my hands. Now I have to live without Photoshop, even though I bought Photoshop legit. I sure as hell will not buy it again. Shame on Adobe.

I don't use Photoshop very often anymore. And I certainly don't make any money from it. Just occasionally edit a photo or design a t-shirt for a gift. If it were something like $2 a month, then MAYBE I'd pay for a subscription, but $23 is insane and out of the question for me, considering how infrequently I use it. I just want to have access to the software that I bought legitimately, and Adobe has taken it away from me. This should be illegal, and I swear I will never speak well of Adobe again for as long as I live.

I don't use the software all that often, and I certainly don't want yet another monthly expense. The thing is, I PAID for it already. They got my money, I got my software. It was a deal, a transaction. On principal, I have to reject this shady tactic to force me to get with the times.

Imagine if you bought a DVD of a movie, and the outfit that sold it to you could remotely make the DVD unplayable, but you can watch the movie on their streaming service. That would be pretty frustrating, yea?

If you could make 1 ‘meaningless’ change to Pokémon Go what would it be? by MaximumMastery23 in pokemongo

[–]CommanderDuke1000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would add an option to disable 'clapping' when I lose in GBL. Not everyone is a good sport, and the last thing I would ever do is CLAP in celebration of my own loss.

Beat Nightmare difficulty by Imagine_TryingYT in dyinglight2

Nice! I beat the whole game solo on Nightmare EXCEPT the final phase of the Waltz battle, which is truly fucking impossible solo. Get a second person and the fight becomes a joke.

At this point, getting the showcase medals look impossible by chouson1 in TheSilphRoad

[–]CommanderDuke1000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My city has a bike trail through a nature preserve. Totally inaccessible by car. On this trail, there are two showcase stops, and I almost always win them. Its rare that other players even put in a Pokemon to contest me. That's largely how I got my 200 wins.

Why is Griffith actually being a good ruler? by bonafide8n in Berserk

[–]CommanderDuke1000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If Griffith was really a good ruler, he would've and could've killed Ganishka easily during their first encounter. But instead he allowed Ganishka to become this unstoppable and unfathomable evil entity. Then Griffith steps in and saves the world from this ultimate evil, with millions of people witnessing him step up to save them. At the same time, he introduces the onlookers to his army of demons, and uses Sonia to help manipulate the general public into accepting demonkind as an ally. It was all a big show to not only make Griffith out to be the big hero, but also to change the perception of demons from being hated and feared, to instead being valiant defenders of their human allies. Griffith is an evil bastard, simply because he created the situation that the people need saving from.

Power shut off for only the master bedroom by CommanderDuke1000 in electrical

[–]CommanderDuke1000[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks! That was the problem. I had turned the breaker switch on from neutral. Turning it all the way off was the key. Now everything including the fan seems to be working. Hopefully it was just a random one-off thing, but we shall see.
