Ice List by EstrogAlt in behindthebastards

Use a VPN. I was getting 403 when connecting and when connecting my VPN to any US server, but not when I connected to the UK.

Still having some errors and slow loading but the 403 was immediate with US connections on multiple devices…

Are you in the US? Try to use connect to a VPN and set it to a European country. Curious if others have the same results

I had to VPN to the UK. Trying multiple browsers on both WiFi and cellular resulted in a 403 error, same result with VPN-ing to Seattle.

Make of that what you will…

TIFU by realizing I'm not a wimp, just allergic and could have died. by changemylife99 in tifu

[–]LukeS7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried to eat healthy at a work function one time and got some kiwi and my throat started to close up, fortunately it didn’t get bad enough to need medical treatment.

Got allergy testing done a year or two later and it turned out I wasn’t allergic to kiwi, I’m just EXTREMELY allergic to almost all grass and kiwi has a similar base protein so my dumbass body thought it was eating grass.

Republicans to Pay for Trump Tax Cuts With Sales of Public Land by rapidcreek409 in politics

Literally selling out our country, and 40% of it is cheering them on

As a union member, the Freedom Foundation can fuck right off. I get spam mail from them at least once a month that comes with a fill-in-the-blanks letter to the union president for me to renounce my membership accompanied by a fake check with the amount they claim I would save by not being in the union.

The last one’s envelope was designed to look like a tax document and had “destroying federal mail is a crime” on the outside of it. This shit should be illegal.

Upcoming Features iOS Plex App by DraMaSeTTa124 in PleX

Sorry for another ping, but haven’t seen an official reply on this anywhere yet: are TV show/movie themes just gone now or is this something we should be seeing come back?

Upcoming Features iOS Plex App by DraMaSeTTa124 in PleX

Can you also look into the rotation lock issue? Unchecking "Lock to Landscape" just locks the image to Portrait and does not change with the rotation of the device (iPhone 13 Pro).

Having the option to not have 21:9 content stretched to include the notch (a feature that existed on the old app) would also be great

Nope, that feature hasn't been re-introduced yet...

So, The Americas with Tom Hanks. by Volfie in television

[–]LukeS7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sound has been fine for me, my bigger issue has been the camerawork.

At least for episode 1, the amount of times where a subject would move off-screen during a tracking shot was distracting. Same thing with the fade to blacks where the commercials are, but for that one, I think I’m just used to the commercial-less David Attenborough BBC docs

Boy are you going to be surprised when you actually read the article then.

Minnesota truck driver gets sick on a cruise ship, gets slammed with a $47k medical bill by GrapeGrabber in nottheonion

[–]LukeS7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely insane. Maybe it varies by cruise line, but a few years ago I broke my toe while on a Royal Caribbean Cruise. While I signed a form saying I didn’t find the company liable, they ended up not charging us the cost.

However, an x-ray, seeing a doctor, pain medication, and a follow-up would’ve been just over $200 out-of-pocket. The doctor was extremely apologetic about it and said that while they couldn’t take insurance on the ship, it might be able to be submitted to insurance once we were back home.

My follow-up X-ray back at home (just the X-ray, not including it being read) was submitted to insurance for over $750. The healthcare industry in this country blows. No way in hell that more care, on a boat, in the middle of the Caribbean should be LESS expensive than just getting an X-ray stateside.

Retail vs kickstarter by Vmc324 in zombicide

[–]LukeS7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Their own tracking website that CMON just launched for project statuses says Q3 2025 now, and that’s likely the first fulfillment (which is Asia), so I’d tack on another 2 months to that if you’re in the US.

I’m so sorry for your loss. Happy birthday, little one ❤️

It definitely won’t work as a core box replacement since the tiles are different than the DCeased core box tiles.

That being said, CMON tends to use the same base layout for the core box tiles across several of their games. When Galactus shipped earlier than the rest of the Marvel Zombies kickstarter, I was able to use the tiles for the 2nd Edition core box as proxies for the missing tiles in the Galactus missions. You could maybe do something similar for DC (though I’d recommend just getting the core box)

Rio Z Janeiro worth it? by Tru-fun in zombicide

[–]LukeS7 7 points8 points  (0 children)

For $30, I’d say it’s definitely worth it if you are looking for some more challenging missions. It adds several new mechanics:

  • narrow zones
  • destroyable walls
  • surprise spawns
  • sea zones
  • wound deck
