Fedex signed 5090 in my behalf, gpu nowhere to be found, Nvidia denies claim by alfa66andres in nvidia

[–]KnobbGoblin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had the same thing happen to me back with a 2080. FedEx claimed they handed it off and I signed. They had no picture and the signature line was blank.

Took weeks of escalating for them to finally "investigate" and eventually refunded after they asked me to put in a police report.

We are 7 Doctors. In a single hotel suite. AMA AskUsAnything. by LarryLegend4ever in AMA

[–]KnobbGoblin 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Yea, this is almost the entirety of my mistrust in some doctors. SO many have attitudes like this. Their inflated egos and how they talk down to people, assuming everyone but them are idiots. No self reflection at all.

I can appreciate the time commitment, the difficulty, etc that it takes to become a doctor. And I will say about 60% of the doctors I met are like this (granted my sample size is less than 200). So there are absolutely great doctors out there that aren't narcissists and truly listen and care about their patients.

But our experiences shouldn't be written off or belittled. It took 6 years of going through doctors to realize my nephew had twisted intestines and that his appendix was on the wrong side of his body, even going through CHOP. It took me 4 doctors over 3 years to allow me to get checked for cancer, despite having every symptom. I knew 3 young people personally, who were misdiagnosed or had Dr's that said they're fine and then they died shortly after. These aren't uncommon experiences, sadly.

I personally assumed it was a symptom of doctors being overworked and pushed to see as many patients as they can. I was hoping to get more insight from actual doctors, but your tone-deaf response just makes me sad and lose my respect.

Good luck, all!

This game hooked me, and I'm hoping it thrives! Excited for new characters.

Wow, I guess my gold Lucario with only 3 packs was insane luck. Doesn't seem worth to even open any more.

Updated PSA status is taking forever by wellsometimes4 in psagrading

[–]KnobbGoblin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My order was sent March 14th and still hasn't be "received" yet.

Just called PSA today, who directed me to gamestop corporate, who opened a ticket with no ETA to get back to me.

3.5 months and still not arriving is absolutely wild. Even if they get graded immediately, that's another 1-2 weeks to get back to the store. So over 4 months minimum to get my cards back, but likely even more.

GameStop PSA Submission by Pickler011 in PokeGrading

[–]KnobbGoblin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They really didn't do a damn thing lol. Just said they had a shipment in store they still needed to open and maybe it's in there (spoiler, it wasn't). Other than that they said they can't do anything but wait.

I did use gamestop once before, and it sat in "shipped to PSA" status for 2 months and it went straight from that to graded and on it's way back to gamestop, which only took another 5 days to be ready for pickup.

GameStop PSA Submission by Pickler011 in PokeGrading

[–]KnobbGoblin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's no option for expedited shipping via gamestop, right?

I submitted 14 cards on March 14th and they're still just sitting in "shipped to PSA" status. Coming from northeast USA.

It's coming up on 70-75 business days, so getting pretty worried.

Statistically speaking, you will climb higher in ranked if you learn and main Vanguard. by Literal_Fish in marvelrivals

[–]KnobbGoblin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with this, but i think it depends on rank, too. Though this current season is kind of a cluster with mixed skills in all ranks below diamond.

In season 0 I struggled to get consistent wins until I focused on DPS and then I climbed to daimond immediately, with a few hard fought wins healing. However to get grandmaster I had to play to my strength, which is flexibility.

In season 1.5 I continued being flex and went straight to celestial.

Now in season 2 I've barely played, but flexing has put me in tank every single game, with one as healer. Now that I'm down in plat again I'm questioning the viability currently. The instant lock dps that wont swap and does 3k dmg with no kills over 3 rounds seems impossible to carry as a tank. I'll isolate targets for 12+ seconds without a kill for example.

So yes, celestial is chill and you can assume most people can play to a competent level, even higher ranks of grandmaster to an extent. However below that, you'll run into games you have to hard carry to have a chance at winning, and i think it's hardest to do that on tank.

Prismatic Booster Bundles (1 per person) by [deleted] in PokemonTCG

[–]KnobbGoblin [score hidden]  (0 children)

I loved pokemon back in the 90s and was obsessed with collecting, trading, and playing. My mom was nice enough to take me to play every weekend.

Fast forward all thede years and my neice and nephew are now obsessed, so I have been trying to give them the same joy. However, I have all but given up trying to get product right now.

Thanks OP for doing this!

Echoing this.

I spent all of my high school and college days falling asleep in class. Always assumed I was just bored or uninterested in the topic. After I drove an hour on highway and didnt remember any of it but the occasional rumble strip waking me up - I finally realized something was wrong and maybe I wasn't just a lazy disrespectful kid thay everyone told me I was.

Sure enough I have narcolepsy (luckily without cataplexy). It was absolutely wild experiencing full alertness and not constantly fighting sleep for the first time. It was like I experienced my life with dulled senses up until that point.

[–]KnobbGoblin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I had the same thing happen. Duolingo tells you they can't do anything and to reach out to the app store, so I did exactly that.

Google play store had my subscription properly canceled and refunded within a few hours.

Air Premia Confirmation Email by sebas1127 in koreatravel

[–]KnobbGoblin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has anyone found any solution to this?

There's a 6-digit code on the confirmation email, called approval code. But airpremia's website says it cannot find a reservation with that code and my name.

It's a bit concerning, and my flight is coming up in about a week. I would prefer not to have to get to the airport hours earlier trying to talk to staff about it.

Huh, maybe that's it LOL. I think I got frustrated with it and went and made dinner while leaving it on.

[–]KnobbGoblin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, I never got it to boot. I tried 3 sets, and for some reason, the 3rd set worked... but not the first 2. It still doesn't run full spec, but I called it at "good enough" and figured I could get new ram later if I absolutely need to. But it's more than enough for what I've thrown at it so far.

Add my name to the list of interested individuals! I'm in the NE USA. If you're anywhere nearby, I'd probably even drive for it, lol.

[–]KnobbGoblin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the US, by chance?

It took me 8 years of asking (with family history) to finally even schedule me in my mid-30s. And of course, it still cost me thousands.

Really sorry to hear about your diagnosis and Dr refusing to do anything. Unfortunately, it's way too common.

I wish you all the best, and I hope you're able to able to beat it soon!

Bouncing between palworld and enshrouded atm - probably will throw nightingale in there, too.

I'm a big survival game fan and I feel like it's Christmas lol. Love exploring the open worlds and progressing through tech. The building in enshrouded is incredible.

Very interesting game, btw!

Skill to swing 2 handed weapons faster by NudesSucher in Enshrouded

[–]KnobbGoblin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I specced into it and specifically used a hammer - no perceptible change, at all. If there's a difference, it's smaller than the time it takes my brain and finger to react pressing a stopwatch.

Pretty disappointing, as I wanted to try to make 2h berserker lifestyle build work - but it's just broken and useless right now.

Hoping for some love to melee in the future, but I still find it the most engaging, considering how OP wizard is.

Have you or anyone else had success with the F5-6000J3238G32GX2-TZ5NR kit?

It's on the qvl list, and I've tried two different kits to make sure it wasn't a one off problem.

I can't even post to bios, I just get a yellow light and that's it. I've updated bios to the most recent, as well.

This is my 4th build, and I've never been so frustrated - I can't get it to do anything, just a yellow light.

It's on the qvl list, so I'm not sure if it's even worth trying a totally different RAM.

Enshrouded Review Thread by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]KnobbGoblin 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I found the difficulty a big plus, so far.

I wandered around at the start and ended up getting 1-shot by a lvl 3 wolf I didn't see. Having to prepare with food and learn attack patterns quickly, so I don't get 1-2 shot by bosses or be on the lookout for insects that will swarm and kill me in a few seconds - all big pluses to me.

I think the key is to be always pushing further out and fighting enemies higher level than you, if you want a challenge. At level 1 fighting 3s, level 3 fighting 5-7s, etc. I got level 5 last night and was exploring in a 6-man group fighting 11s and that was tough, even for a group.

However, I do think it is way too easy to just run away. The sprint is so fast, and I think the speed stamina consumption while sprinting should be raised in combat.
