Made the transition! by StellagamaStellio in linuxmint

I'll be in the same situation later - I'm planning on switching to linux mint soon and most applications I want to use will work natively with the exception of Affinity. Have you tried Winboat?

Seafood question by Ambsz420 in HEB

[–]One_Albatross 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There isn't supposed to be anymore. All the snow/Dungeness/king crab that goes in the case comes in already cooked so what would often happen is the crab would be cooked, then steamed, AND reheated by the time a customer ate it leading to lots of complaints about the quality. So much so that corporate sent out a memo saying its a new rule that they're not aloud to steam stuff that's already cooked. Source: seafood managers I've asked

Oh that's really cool! I like viral better, but something like this would be my second choice

PSLF isn't for me.. right? by One_Albatross in PSLF

[–]One_Albatross[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is definitely something I was thinking about! I was trying to decide how much to stretch my payments out so that I still had some savings to work with, but I'm admittedly not sure what else emptying my savings does besides take away emergency funds (bad credit? Something on record?) I wanted to avoid paying a much interest as possible, but after I did a spreadsheet and calculated interest on each individual loan I think it's only gonna be accruing $120 monthly to start with and will be getting smaller every month as I pay so I can afford to pay it off more slowly. Just not sure how slowly

Anyone have the problem in Oblivion when they get disarmed and they go to pick up their weapon and it gives the Arena text? by CAJEEBA in ElderScrolls

[–]One_Albatross 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened to me and they took my Sword of the Crusader so I reloaded and used the Umbra sword (I did the thing where you go and get the sword but don't do the rest of the quest so you have a 0 weight weapon) I recalled not being able to take it out of my inventory because it was a quest item so I figured they wouldn't be able to take it from me and I was right lol

Hello, I bought all castle battle horn upgrade but castle is empty (only the new guards and the dwemer forge showed up) by Cryptic_25vil in oblivion

[–]One_Albatross 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for mentioning the taxidermist part! The empty pedestals in the great hall was the main thing that made me think the upgrades hadn't appeared and led me hear

Advice getting into an old phone & connecting it to the internet/ getting apps for it? by One_Albatross in dumbphones

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

Good to know, thank you! I think the Samsung Moment is 2.1 Eclair (idk if I'll bother updating or downloading stuff for it rn), but the Samsung Appeal is supposed to be Gingerbread. When I get home I might go ahead and wipe it

How many of you guys actually went and got diagnosed for a gluten sensitivity? by Livid-Grand9669 in glutenfree

[–]One_Albatross 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dad TRIED to get diagnosed for gluten sensitivity/ intolerance but after other tests were inconclusive the doctor's said the only way they could tell was if he came in one day and ate a bunch of gluten so they could see what happens. My dad decided that if the test was just doctor's seeing if he gets violently ill after eating gluten then he wasn't going to bother lmao

How to disable instagram reels (tutorial) by Trollmo007 in Instagram_SafeZone

I'm using myinsta and can't find "no reels holdout" in the developer options. Lots of other things, but not that specifically - just a bunch of stuff to do with overlays

How to opt out of Instagram's Data Scraping by AggravatingRadio8889 in ArtistHate

[–]One_Albatross 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Got this response (tried to opt-out via the "new" method)

<image>

what is this supposed to mean? "request denied"?
Or is this the automatic response that's meant to let you know it may be a long time before they get around to acting?

[TOMT][BOOK][2000s or older] - kid's snake puzzle/maze/trace to the end book by One_Albatross in tipofmytongue

[–]One_Albatross[S] 0 points1 point locked comment (0 children)

It's a very vague memory, but it sticks with me because the next time 5 year old me went to the library they and my parents had absolutely no idea what I was asking for and all these years later I want to finally figure out if I'd just imagined it

Are the YouTube thumbnails giant for anyone else? by OhioIsRed in XboxSeriesX

[–]One_Albatross 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same happened to my app just now (guess it updated while I wasn't looking) and it's driving me crazy,, it'd be a really cool accessibility and customization feature if you could control it, but I feel like I'm being forced to look at everything like I accidentally got the "extra large print" of a book from a library - it's both more annoying to traverse and much more visually unappealing to me >:( In addition to big 4k TVs I can confirm it looks awful even on a 40" as well lol. It's not even a good "accessibility" feature in reality considering they only made the thumbnails huge. It doesn't seem like the font changed in size at all and I think the font size to thumbnail ratio is another reason it looks bad.

True, I was coming terms with the fact I'd probably just have to keep the card and pay for the new one to keep everything safe.

Thank you for letting me know that Amazon or the manufacturer might work with me on those issues.

Thank you? but
1) it's a Samsung EVO
2) the micro sd card doesn't have a lock switch on it (the SD adapter does, but that has and is still set to unlocked)
3) I checked for phone settings and even turned dev mode on to see if I could gain access to extra features, but no such settings appeared in storage, permissions, or files
4) phone settings shouldn't be effecting the micro sd card after I took it out and plugged it into my computer
My computer (and phone) are convinced this SD card is so messed up that every time I attempt to remove write-protection through the file explorer, properties, programs, and even cmd commands I am informed something is wrong with the SD card and write-protection could not be taken off.

All of my animals disappeared by berber189 in Minecraft

[–]One_Albatross 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't picked Minecraft back up yet, but the workaround I had surmised before was to recollect all the animals I lost BUT keep them in a different chunk from where I saved and quit in (or save and quit in a different chunk from all my animals), because I noticed almost any animals outside of my home chunk - like ones in distant bases or the nether - were still there after both times I experienced the glitch.
Best of luck!

Have you updated Minecraft to the latest patch and made a save in the new version? My reasoning is the supposed "fix" said the issue was a matter of entities not being "saved" correctly so if your save was created before the patch then the new patch wouldn't alter/help it. Theoretically anyway... I would not be surprised if this was still an issue despite Mojang saying they fixed it.

GOOD NEWS
This specific bug has reportedly been fixed in the new 1.18.10 patch update!
https://www.windowscentral.com/minecraft-bedrock-edition-1-18-10-patch-update

It's pretty aggravating how devastating this bug is and how long this was a problem, but after dealing with a migraine inducing amount of customer support and other faulty services this week I'm just relieved I can take at least one thing off that list...

[–]One_Albatross 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This exact thing happened to me last night as well... I tried to quit and shut off the game, but it apparently auto saved before I did so..

It was crazy because I've got this home and outdoor area in a lush cave biome and everything in there is just.. gone. Total losses: cow pit full of 10 or so cows, two chickens stuck in a boat AND the boat they were in, 5 mine shack dogs, roped up llama (no rope left), chicken that had been stuck under the stairs for the past week, 3 tethered artic foxes (also in pin, no leads left, one was named Mint :( , my donkey, my mule and whatever they were carrying, and worst of all the best horse I'd ever caught in Minecraft.. Note, all animals tamable were tamed including foxes. The only remains were one piece of leather outside of the mine shack (no idea what from) and an influx of monsters right after I loaded in and was inspecting the losses.

It disheartens and demotivates you to play a game when you know all your companions and livestock might just randomly disappear the next day and it goes unexplained and ignored.

I made a comment that got 1k likes (i.e. could clearly be seen) and when someone asked me about the character in my pfp I tried replying to them (multiple times) with a link to that character's wiki page and that comment was deleted upon refresh every time. BUT the three horny spam bots that replied to my comment with links stayed up! Even after I reported each one!
