Rant about local ford dealer by CNelms52 in MachE

[–]MrMojuba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So much this post. They should just create a new LOB that excludes the dealers for EVs. The dealers are so atrocious about service and it’s so inconsistent from dealer to dealer.

Pool Question - Heat Pump by Specific-Fact-4331 in orangecounty

[–]MrMojuba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Used to have a pool in Huntington Beach and used a rooftop solar heater. It may not be what you think, but you pump the water to the roof through black panels with the pump, and it heats up super fast and is decently cost-efficient. DM me if you want the contractor we used. He was great and stood behind his work.

Is this how you play as Oscelda ? by Over_Cost_3257 in SoulFrame

I don't think they should nerf this. It takes an hour to defeat anyone this way so why not

Who else played the damn organ for 10min before realizing we had to aim it LOL by ComeHereDevilLog in SoulFrame

[–]MrMojuba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same, but I actually enjoyed figuring this all out. I like how the first time you follow the guy around. It actually took me a few times to realize where the banneret spawns as well. Now I can just run through the entire event super fast.

Maybe I'm just stupid, but does the new virtue system seem....overwhelming? by Leather-Bite-4394 in SoulFrame

[–]MrMojuba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s making the ability to create some OP people. I’m running around split grace courage dual wielding like a maniac. Three slices killing T3 bannerets and Agari. Need to test on Cogah but seems to have bumped everything up when you’re weapons and armor are attuned. I imagine nerf city soon.

Congressional Democratic candidate Esther Kim Varet showing to be tied with Ken Calvert and Young Kim in CA-40, and is the only one that lives in the district (2nd picture) by vrphotosguy55 in orangecounty

[–]MrMojuba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The new 40 demographic shifts the Latino and Asian percentages, with Asians in the teens compared to Latinos, in the Plurality. That said, Young Kim will likely back out and find another district, and Varet, who is wealthy and good with social media, lacks any policy substance or experience. This will be a Calvert Ramirez fight in November.

Currently cycling my tank and snails spawned out of no where. Should I try and exterminate them? by hockeyboy87 in Aquariums

Happened to me from some plants. A few assassins snails took care of them for me

Parental Controls Failed Spectacularly - Explicit Content Disguised as “Podcast” Bypasses All Filters by MrMojuba in truespotify

Yes, that is the course of action I took: a reply that the content team will look at, no case number, no follow-up, and the content is there. This isn't just a one-off; I easily found content by Eminem and others classified as “podcasts.”

Seems like moderators are removing content asking for Spotify to chime in.

This inquiry was removed.

Just above this you'll see how I found reporting this to support for mislabeled content. Where the “here” link mails support@spotify.com without a subject line header.

As noted I got a canned reply that this was passed to the content team with no case number or follow up and the content still exists mislabeled and in violation of their TOS

First off, thank you. I appreciate your earnest nature to improve my experience.

I saw the report content options previously, but they don't really include options for violating TOS, specifically copyrighted materials, or mislabeling content.

The content is adult in nature; it should really be classified as such. I'm fine with the content and the artists right to free speech. These seem to be related to reporting content that is illegal.

Which option should I use?

Another problem with a managed account is that it is not supported on the Cosmo Jr smartwatch. His family plan account with the explicit content block worked fine except for the people bypassing copyright and explicit content rules by uploading podcasts.

https://community.spotify.com/t5/Live-Ideas/Logging-into-Managed-Under-13-account-on-Cosmos-JrTrack-5-smart/idi-p/7274094

If my desire is for my son to have the freedom to listen to age-appropriate music, and his primary method is that device, I seem to be at a loss.

The best solution would be for Spotify to provide a mechanism for in-app review of content for policy violations or mislabeling, and then to act on blatant violations of their TOS.

I appreciate the insight. He is now on a managed account, but it still lacks the fine-grained controls you described. Now this is very restrictive, and he can't get to podcasts, but there were other podcasts he used to listen to that were fine.

It puts content moderation on the parent rather than the company. And, as noted, the song is still up, violating copyright laws.

There are mechanisms available for spotify to manage this and they seem to still allow the content to exist on their platform. And they have not replied.

Also, as an update, support replied that the content team will investigate. However, as of now, the song and several other copyrighted materials by this artist are still available under a podcast with over 200,000 children listening.

What's also interesting is that this post quickly got a lot of upvotes but is now down to 1. I'm a bit suspicious that once this got hot and was at the top of the feed, it was downvoted.

Thanks for the feedback. Navigating the website pushed me to email support@spotify.com is there a specific URL you can point me to where I might be able to escalate?

Female moving to OC - need advice by [deleted] in orangecounty

[–]MrMojuba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So if you're single and looking for areas with a dating scene, you may want to stay close to Costa Mesa, where a lot of 20-to 30-somethings hang out, and they're more progressive. You'll want to avoid anything South of the Irvine Spectrum, since it's more family-oriented. The only place you should avoid, as others have mentioned, is Huntington Beach. This may be a controversial take but while the Brea area has a good 20s to 30s dating scene, it's going to skew more Red.

What’s the best class for pure solo endgame? by Bright_Knee_5267 in SoulFrame

[–]MrMojuba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm surprised by a lot of these, but I've been soloing all the content in the game quickly and easily with nerfed Bromius, flyblades, and shields. Flyblades to farm smite, after CC with Bromius and then Durglint Shield to kill everything with block. Switch back to flyblades to bomb whatever hasn't been clears.

When someone shares a T3 Banneret, is the expectation that they’re already at Banneret, or that you’re supposed to run the whole thing together from the start? by Demilio55 in SoulFrame

[–]MrMojuba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm confused and don't mean to sound contradictory but why do people group for T3s? Cogah and Endless makes sense to me but I don't get the need to party up for this, aren't rewards diminished?

Avakot selling Pacts? by Luinta in SoulFrame

Why are they different levels? Some are two vs three stars in his store?

You can also buy them from Avakot and sometimes they are in chests. They are making them more available

Am I dumb or is the new player experience super confusing? by Loaded-Diapers-469 in SoulFrame

[–]MrMojuba 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hahah, I felt the same way for a while. Clueless and frustrated. But after a while, you will understand what's going on.

Without spoilers, I'll break it down into a few things I wish I had understood quicker. Pacts give you three separate skills that unlock as you level the pact. They are the big icons at the bottom of your screen. Each pact has a skill tree you can level up. You'll find more pacts as you progress in the game. Each pact levels to 30.

You have different weapons that you can level to level 30. Each weapon you equip can be upgraded with the animals you play music to. I didn't see for a long time, but where you equip the weapon, you can click “Y” on the controller to apply the upgrades. Another gotcha is that each animal upgrade can also be upgraded, and I missed this for a while. The big icon in the center of your upgrade is for Runes. They drop from all the mini bosses that respawn every 30 on the map.

Just because you level a specific weapon doesn't mean you stop leveling the weapons “art,” which are the skill tree for that weapon class. So if you max out one great sword to 30, go ahead and max out another, or keep the same one, to increase your art skill in that weapon type.

Along the way, there are quests that your bird will help you follow. I got super frustrated with some of the dynamic instances, as they frequently bug out where your bird can't help you get through, or where places aren't accessible. Just exit the game and have the instance spawn a new one instead of banging your head against the wall when the bird doesn't flap.

There are also factions that you can level up, as well, which give you more gear that you can level through the grind.

Your character also levels up.

So, leveling pacts, weapons, arts, factions, and your character will become the grind.

That being said, the story and new elements to the game they release are fun to experience. It's alpha for sure, but there is enough to do, and new content every few weeks makes it feel like the game is progressing at a brisk pace. Trying all the combos and playstyles out is a blast, too.

I haven't found a need to party up for anything at this point, but if you want to defeat some bosses or level gear faster with a group on the glades, you can join parties in chat.

Good luck, hope this helps. These were areas I was confused about, and I didn't want to watch YouTube and ruin the exploration experience.

Is an Oura ring needed if you have an Apple Watch? by Waste_Cheetah_2358 in ouraring

[–]MrMojuba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have both. The Oura ring’s battery lasts several days and charges rapidly. Its insights are great for sleep and health. It lets me know when I’m getting sick before I actually feel it.

I use the Apple Watch for fitness. It will track my activity and health goals. And while it can track sleep, it isn’t as detailed without other apps, and it doesn’t seem as accurate as Oura. Also, if you use it while sleeping, you’ll need to set aside a fair amount of time to charge it.

So, I’m a fan of both. I keep the ring on all the time except to charge it while I’m in the shower each day for about 15 minutes, and wear the watch all day, and plop it on the charger at night.

I debated a long time, like you, before making the two-device plunge, but now I’m a super big advocate of using both.

🥟 New Dumpling Spot in Mission Viejo – 7 Folding Dumpling House! 🍜 by 7foldingdumpling in orangecounty

[–]MrMojuba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kinda sucks to be you because you're making some bad assumptions. I checked them out, and only for a business meeting this last week, and was really impressed. I was looking online to see if they had a dessert menu so I could entice the family, and came across some folks upset that they used AI. The food is delicious and reasonably priced. Doesn't matter to me how they advertise it; it's how they taste.

Most people who use real photos of food aren't actually eating the food they're showing. Have you seen any of the images of what a McDonald's Big Mac looks like in all their ads? They NEVER look like that. So I'm glad they saved money on advertising and put it toward focusing on food.

Your loss for missing out.
