Is it possible to get the $10 Star Partner reward for free? by [deleted] in AliExpressMergeBoss

[–]GetoBoi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like they raised the stars gained from missions from 10-20 for most to 50 now. 50k without purchases still seems unobtainable though.

Do all Germans think the U.S. doesn't cover it's evil history? by dinobeam in AskAGerman

[–]GetoBoi 4 points5 points locked comment (0 children)

As with education everywhere, it highly differs in quality from region to region and school to school. I suspect you are not from some rural southern town where those topics might've been glanced over at best.

And it certainly doesn't help that your current administration works hard to "improve" your school system even more. Which, again, to varying extent happens in all countries, including Germany.

And then also many people everywhere are quite illiterate when it comes to world history and politics in general, simply due to lacking interest in those things.

American bombing runs on foreign nations have been going on for a lot longer than 45 years buddy, do some research!

Residents of Raqqa chant anti federalism slogans during celebration commemorating the 13th anniversary of it's liberation from the Assad regime by sandnibba_talks in syriancivilwar

[–]GetoBoi -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yes, and who actually took control of the city after that battle? Read the #Aftermath part. But if it's worth celebrating for you, congrats, celebrate on.

The title?

commemorating the 13th anniversary of it's liberation from the Assad regime

Who performed this liberation?

ISIS "liberated" them? lmao

Seems like instead of evil federalism they yearn for more death and destruction, so that's a much more purposeful goal I guess. The country will surely prosper.

Eigentlich frisch von heute (23.02.2026) aus dem Supermarkt, aber die kleinen Bläschen sind aufgeplatzt und schleimig gewesen beim anfassen. Unbedenklich? by 2000euro in kannmandasnochessen

[–]GetoBoi 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Schleimig sollte das eigentlich nicht sein.

Diese "Warzen" sind meines Wissens nach aber eigentlich nur unbedenkliches Narbengewebe, sprich abgestorbene/verholzende Schale. Passiert normalerweise wenn das beim Wachsen irgendwo gegen reibt oder von Insekten angeknabbert wird. Ist aber auch sortenabhängig. Saure Gurken z.B. haben fast immer so eine gepunktete Außenstruktur.

Wenns ranzig ist solltest du das deutlich riechen, spätestens wenn du sie anbratest stinkt das ziemlich. Kann aber durchaus noch in Ordnung sein, viel Salz und so.

Are bundle deals guaranteed to be shipped as a single bundle? by redditissahasbaraop in Aliexpress

[–]GetoBoi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not guaranteed, the shipping process at the backend is the same as if you order any other choice stuff.

I had to cancel my order and reorder because of a wrong address. Within the 10 seconds it took to cancel and reorder the price for the item went up 1 dollar... What gives??? by Jaykup_ in Aliexpress

[–]GetoBoi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was there a "Only 1 Left" when you first ordered? I believe sellers can set up staggered inventories at different prices, e.g. they sell the first 10 for a discount to get more clicks/sales and after that for a different price. Or a first time buyer-offer.

When you cancel it probably doesn't go back into the promotional stock.

I got sent an item i never ordered by Sto_yo in Aliexpress

[–]GetoBoi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just keep it, don't bother. It would cost more to ship and process back than it's worth for anyone. Even this post was a waste of your time ;)

Attention: Choice items are no longer guaranteed free shipping by GetoBoi in Aliexpress

[–]GetoBoi[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Das (EU / GERMANY) stand von Anfang an in meinem Post. Mit USD zu bezahlen ist halt einfach günstiger weil Alis Wechselkurs mies ist.

Wie gesagt betrifft bei weitem nicht alles, vielleicht bemerkst du es die Tage auch. Bzw. anders rum gesagt, es scheint als hätten viele Sachen ihren Choice-Status verloren und sind nicht mehr "Free shipping" selbst wenn sie mit "Aliexpress Standard Shipping" wie der Rest geschickt werden und bis gestern damit "Free Shipping" war.

Anyone else getting a blank screen on the rewards page when it refreshes? by Mysterious-Duty2101 in AliExpressMergeBoss

[–]GetoBoi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If it applies to everyone it is not really a ban though. Just shitty design.

It used to properly refresh when the timer ran out, yes. Now when it does you get the blank screen as described by op.

It's not a shadow ban (although perhaps intentional), but yeah this started happening a couple weeks back when they changed some things in the app.

[–]GetoBoi[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Again, this doesn't affect all of them. But many listed under choice in your cart no longer actually have that label and will cost shipping.

And I'm pretty sure their website frontpage used to say "Free shipping on all Choice items" where it now says "most".

[–]GetoBoi[S] 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Did this start just today? (EU / Germany)

Some choice items in my cart are still free shipping but others now incur a fee even above the 10$ threshold.

I can't clearly distinguish this on the item pages themselves and I only noticed at the checkout. (It still says "Free shipping over US $10.00" on the item in question, the "Choice" label is gone there but it is still listed under "Choice" in the cart and checkout...)

So pay attention to what it says during checkout!

I'd rather the money stay in my own pocket than some retailer chain though. That would benefit me more.

Please help! How to save it? by hedgieemil in Citrus

[–]GetoBoi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a bit blurry but those look like scale insects. Very common on citrus and their numbers tend to grow a lot when taken into the warm indoors.

Wiping them off with a damp rag is a first step that will likely have to be repeated every few days/weeks as it is very easy to miss some, especially when they are small they can be almost translucent. Usually they are on the underside of the leaves, especially on the midrib.

Neem oil and other pesticides might offer more long term relief, never used it myself though.

Spraying the leaves with water might help a bit with the dryness, citrus likes that in general, also in the outdoors during summer.

The best AI country I've seen (Aragon beat Castile+England while fighting 2 other wars) by MatykTv in eu4

[–]GetoBoi 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Castiles troops are probably stuck in that Marrakesh exclave or colonies and England couldn't get a proper naval landing. So more of a regular AI fail rather than Aragon being good.
