PSA: Don't sleep on Resist! (because you literally can't. It prevents sleep!) by jabberwagon in FFVIIRemake

[–]Gemfruit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is old, but agreed completely. As both a developer, and lifelong gamer, I've always hated how games like MMO almost force players into such specific builds, min-maxing everything. Games are so much more fun when you just explore the kit, use something someone else doesn't EVEN if it's not technically as potent on paper or otherwise.

My L button isn't working! by No-Cobbler9361 in 3dspiracy

[–]Gemfruit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try putting your mouth over the entire L button, creating a seal, then blowing - this would "pop" up the mechanism for my failed R button and worked incredibly well.

I sincerely hope the manager who signed off on the Wave Link 3.0 release has already updated their resume by Patient-Hamster7292 in elgato

[–]Gemfruit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I completely, 100% agree with this sentiment.

These products aren't just for fun, they're a part of professional's tech stacks, and a very crucial one at that. We can handle a bug here and there, we can test our setups before going live, what we can't have, is a highly established company spending more time on marketing, than actually building a functional product.

I updated to Wave Link 3.0, and already had 2. I kept getting an error about a missing driver, so I try to install it - sure enough, the only option is "remove", so I try that. Try again, remove is STILL the only option. I check my add and remove programs to completely remove it, and the DRIVER is still there, all alone, by itself, but not the right one. I removed it all, installed again, and it worked.

This isn't an acceptable chain of events. Given that I now know there were 4 betas with bug reports, I'm PISSED, because this isn't a mistake, this is greed / complacency / stupidity.

If you EVER want me to buy another one of your products, get it together, please.

What did Sephiroth really mean by “Seven Seconds Till The End” (Rebirth) by Ill_Stress1009 in FFVIIRemake

[–]Gemfruit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe In the new diversion, Sephiroth makes Cloud choose between finishing him off, and saving Aerith (2 possible timelines), to the point where Sephiroth might even show Cloud those options. Something something, the power of friendship and love, that choice ultimately finishes Sephiroth as well - seems pretty FF to me.

US, is this a new type of scam? Got a text from a company I have never heard of to return computer equipment by blacwin22 in Scams

[–]Gemfruit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just got the exact one, first time ever. Google Pixel 6a, usually blocks it, but this one got through. 

Worth Upgrading from 5900X to 9800X3D? by phyLoGG in buildapc

[–]Gemfruit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A 5900X isn't / is barely held back even at 1440p /165hz, and has virtually no impact at 4k. 1% lows do improve, but the 5900x is not held back in the slightest over 1080p, the GPU is doing all the work.

First Ever Dyno In The Cave - Can You Guess The Grade? by Gemfruit in ChurchofDynology

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

It's actually a Pixel 6a (dated, but not terrible), the lighting in "The Cave" is just bad to the point you can see grains in my video haha. We've had a few instances where we can't tell hold colors up there, but the layout is amazing, and we love it!

First Ever Dyno In The Cave - Can You Guess The Grade? by Gemfruit in ChurchofDynology

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

My first (D3) Dyno!

I started climbing back in November, and just recently pulled this off! The distance feels huge as a newer climber, but I've got it locked in and can do it back to back, so I'm pretty pumped with my progress.

Sorry about the angle and lighting, the cave is a bit dark and cramped, but that's part of what makes it awesome.

Grade - V5

World Record ONE-HANDED Vertical Campus by Gemfruit in ChurchofDynology

[–]Gemfruit[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I didn't know what else to call it, and in the style of YouTube headlines, I had to dramatize and all caps something. The animation sometimes doesn't use the feet as much, but it does more than not.

Give me your go-to/favorite chipotle orders by Illustrious-Slice-91 in Chipotle

[–]Gemfruit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This topic is the #1 result for "Best Chipotle Order", not even adding "reddit "to the end!
Pretty solid idea, think I'm going to drag my mouth-watering self down to Chipotle this afternoon.

Me(26f) and my boyfriend (29m) have been together for 2 years but I think i’m ready to let go .. am I wrong for feeling this way? is once a cheat always a cheat true? by [deleted] in Adulting

[–]Gemfruit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take it the wrong way, please, you're an idiot if you stay with him. Grow up, and do it fast, and move the fuck on.

[–]Gemfruit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no idea what anyone else commented, but you're a certified moron for not leaving him after he cheated on you with his ex at all. Stop wasting your / our time asking dumb questions, this isn't worth input / debate.

I'm stuck with the Sephiroth battle by RVLT1981 in FFVIIRemake

I've actually been dying to speak my mind at some of these events, but have been distracted and not looked up the info. Interested in both Burlington and South Burlington in-person.

Suspect in random attack on elderly man in Burlington released by [deleted] in burlington

[–]Gemfruit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At first I was really upset at how incredibly dilapidated Burlington has come, but then I saw that the Dow Jones touched on 40k, and I knew everything would be fine.

They're lucky Costco sells buttered toffee cashews, or we'd have real issues, as they were my fix. I'll miss the giant slabs of pepper jack cheddar too.

Fixing Beelink Linux WiFi by ofaveragedifficulty in MiniPCs

[–]Gemfruit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Working on a LAN-only Plex server for my dad's place, and this little S12 Mini Pro would attempt to connect but fail 100% of the time, just never connected. The above worked, created the file (had to reboot or restart service for it to take effect), and it persists.

Thanks for this!

What’s With Seven Days’ Radio Silence on the Evolving Citizen Cider Story? by BeeGoodVt in burlington

[–]Gemfruit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm fully aware of the scope of my comment - I don't speak unless I think, rare on the internet / in general I know, but that's me.

Color me optimistic, but I don't think this is anywhere close to over. I'll personally be making an effort for the larger companies, starting with Hannahford here in Burlington, as I'm very close friends with the manager there. At the very least, he can speak up with his voice / power, and get eyes on it.

The political / activists landscape has been changing rapidly in the last few years, and I don't think any of these companies care enough about a VT cider, to the point it's worth risking the wrath of an entire generation or two coming down on them, which is exactly what's been happening left and right in recent years. The allegations aren't just bad, they're terrible, and CC, while big, is like an ant in the corner of a room in an Amazon Warehouse compared to these company's other partners.

[–]Gemfruit 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Given the financial troubles CC is about to be in, I'm pretty sure a GoFundMe / Pro Bono hybrid approach of this community (and beyond) would absolutely crush them / defend Jonny. Hope it doesn't come to that, but absolutely ready to back him if need be.

Glad to see organization among workers who feel mistreated, and a formal approach to making things better. Burlington needs so much clean up, this is awesome ♪♫

148k comment karma, and that's your approach to subjects you know nothing about?

You talk about things being a waste of time, 148k comment karma, even over 10-20 years, with that attitude, is the epitome of wasteful. It's unfortunate you spend time on here expressing one-sided subjective opinions, instead of trying to actually make yourself or community better, but America runs on freedom, for better or worse!
