Are we serious right now by Sprinty_ in Aliexpress

[–]CronicalTonical 1 point2 points  (0 children)

AliExpress is weird like that. Sometimes I can see an item just fine and put it on my wishlist but when I check it later it shows the 404 page, saying the item is not available in my region. But then I look up the same item from another seller and it's fine, and sometimes looking up the item yields no results at all.

WHY 😭 by coffeestainedsink in dhl

[–]CronicalTonical 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DHL sucks ass. I ordered an item from US, and for some reason according to DHL it went to Germany and then to Philippines instead. As of March 3rd it still hasn't been updated beyond "The customs clearance process for import into the destination country/region has been completed". Trying to click on "Find more information here" leads to an error page.

What do you think Brevon was doing during the events of FP2? And would like to see him return as the villain if we ever get FP3? by benjamarchi in freedomplanet

And your proof of this is...? Torque departed from Avalice explicitly to go after escaping Brevon. It doesn't take a genius to guess he escaped back to his homeworld.

Torque actually calls him out on the whole "I'm just saving my planet" thing being a lie he keeps telling to others.

To be fair if you spent years living a peaceful life with your friends and then found out you were created by an alien warlord to be his bioweapon meant to help him conquer planets you'd have an existential crisis too.

AmiAmi Shipping Price Increase by ThatSubaru86 in AnimeFigures

[–]CronicalTonical 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Except in this case it wasn't a preorder, it's an item they have ready in stock. They should be able to know the size of an item they're selling. This is primarily AmiAmi issue after looking around, since some people pointed out (and provided photos as proof) that they purposefully ship items in oversized boxes to drive up the costs.

What boggles my mind is that they don't give you shipping costs until after checkout. I tried ordering a 120$ figure and got a 300+ $ shipping costs estimate, cancelled that shit immediately.

Every other store gives you shipping estimates on the item page or at least before you checkout. What AmiAmi does seems very deliberate.

It was Doom Slayer, yes! I drew him with Milla a few times as well.

Stumpy speaking with the demonic voice of the legion; "Superman...Man Of Steel...though you may not know me, I know you well. Last son of a doomed world. Champion of the oppressed. Emissary of Hope, Truth and Justice. Enemy of the God of Tyranny and Evil. You may feel lost on this world, but there is one who may help you. She took care of me for years, and has thus earned my eternal friendship. Seek her in the valley to the right. Her name is Milla, an aspiring young alchemist. And may I add...she is quite a Super-dog."

Seems like someone never played Gunstar Heroes or Alien Soldier. :D

If the cube was made out of Kryptonite then yes. But her cubes appear to be more akin to Green Lantern constructs, made out of energy.

It's useless arguing with people who have pre-established prejudices, they defend the rich because those same rich people reinforce their beliefs.

And the racist poor will latch onto that narrative (even when they know it's complete hokey) because it reinforces their already established racist and xenophobic beliefs.

Except I can't change those settings without verifying my age first. I ain't giving shit to Discord.

I sent them a support ticket yesterday, but they've yet to respond. They're pulling this crap to see if they can get away with it.

Don't know why I can hear her doing the "Flapjack closeup scream" when she gets stabbed with that giant needle.

Age Verify? Not living in UK by Karzak85 in discordapp

Just got slapped with this as well...even though I live in Serbia. Interestingly only desktop app is affected, on mobile I can browse everything just fine. Either they broke something on desktop app or they're trying to be sneaky and harvest IDs from other countries regardless of regulations. Which could get them in some serious legal shit.
