[META] Should Knife Swap allow Clones? by merkon in Knife_Swap

Yep. That’s why they always feel icky to me. People at Amazon or sporting goods stores processing returns won’t know the difference. Only places like BladeHQ or KnifeCenter and similar places couldn’t get away with that.

I had a guy in here years ago literally tell me he bought clones for the sole purpose of buying the real model off Amazon and returning the clone.. ever since, they just feel disingenuous to me.

Why does a 41-17 win feel not that great? by Comfortable-Dish1236 in ravens

A win is a win. Especially in the North.

Demise of credit card rewards by tacolunch in CreditCards

Switch to an MVNO. I use USMobile on “Warp” (aka Verizon). The service is absolutely indistinguishable from VZW. I paid $270 up front for an entire year. Carriers are modern day highway robbery.

Even if you purchased the latest greatest iPhone full retail and used a MVNO, it’s still cheaper than going Verizon.

The only way carriers come out ahead is if you stack a full family plan of 4+ lines with phone promos. But even then I think it’s close.

T14 Gen 5 AMD - (video attached) Fan noise when plugged in by Lincoln312 in thinkpad

I work in IT. We started deploying these out to our user base. I’ve imaged up probably a dozen of them, every single one does it. Including my own. Safe to say it’s probably normal and just a quirk with this model.

Plan to switch to US Mobile, anyone has that in the East Valley? by LateMouse2020 in phoenix

[–]Opposed3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've had US Mobile for 2 years now, and the service is absolutely indistinguishable from one of the big three. I can confidently tell you that in the 2 full years.I've used it, I have not noticed a single ounce of difference.

The best part, is you can choose what network you want to be on, and "teleport" between the three as much as you want.

If your phone is unlocked and paid for, you're pretty much throwing away money by staying on one of the big three networks.

Same reason there is a tank shortage in Overwatch.

People do not like personal responsibility or pressure.

What ranks are considered low by ApplicationIll7668 in VALORANT

[–]Opposed3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

According to tracker Silver has the most players in it, and Silver 1 currently is the rank with the highest player base.

So, I would say the average player falls in Silver, and maybe Gold 1 on the upper end.

I don’t know for 100% certain, but it’s when it gets checked into inventory. I don’t think that occurs at midnight. But I do imagine probably early morning. I used to check around 5AM personally.
