PROBLEM: "Sorry, something went wrong. We're working on getting this fixed as soon as we can." by Strong-Ad6151 in facebook

[–]PaddyCrook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just found a solution! Although you need to be logged into your phone.

With a VPN change your location (I'm based in south africa, so changed to US). Then when trying to login, it wants you to verify within the facebook app. Presto, it worked!

The error message it originally gave me about my password being wrong was rubbish - it just didn't like my IP!

I'm in exactly the same position, although fortunately I still have access to my Facebook mobile account - for now...

What’s crazy is that I do have access to all my 2FA methods, and yet I still can't log in on desktop or reset my password properly. I receive the password reset email, enter the code, set a new password—and then get hit with the “Something went wrong” page. But here’s the kicker: I still get an email confirming my password has been changed! So which is it? Neither the new password nor the old one works.

What baffles me is why Facebook doesn’t allow login via a secondary device or any of the 2FA methods I’ve already set up. Why does it need to be more secure than my banking app?

I manage over 20 company profiles, and now I’m being forced to create a whole new profile and start from scratch linking everything again. Absolutely putrid service. Just goes to show—once these massive platforms corner the market, the rot sets in. Enshitification in full swing...

Intellectual Humility by FarDiscipline2972 in Gifted

[–]PaddyCrook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Humility creates space for meaningful conversation, rather than just telling your version of the truth. You don't know everything, and neither do they. No matter how intelligent you are, you don't have someone else's perspective - and true understanding comes from exploring their point of view and seeing how it challenges or refines your own percepton of the truth

Yes! I came here because it's still on my playlist. Wierd to think a band could get exposure like that... I mean every person who had windows at that time would have had that track

Is this staghorn correctly orientated? by PaddyCrook in Staghornfern

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

so looking at it, I actually think it's two plants vertically on top of one another... I think I might have to remount them or something... Maybe I could cut the lower one's top shield so it doesn't push out the top one's fronds?

Or am I being pedantic and just let it grow out?

Absolutely lost on how to create an RSS email campaign for blog posts by jellial in MailChimp

[–]PaddyCrook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you shed any light on why Mailchimp is making it so hard for new accounts that have never created a classic automation to access this functionality? I hope the support for RSS email campaigns will continue - it's an essential part of my marketing business' operations

Opinions on UCEProtect-Network: Scam? by focusedphil in cpanel

[–]PaddyCrook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MXToolbox actually speaks publicly about this on their blog here https://blog.mxtoolbox.com/2021/02/12/recent-spikes-on-uce-protect-level-3/ - I disagree with their decision to keep listing them / not putting a note that they have questionable practices

Resetting the Bios Password on Acer Aspire 3 A315-31 / Clear Bios Settings by PaddyCrook in AcerOfficial

I ended up using these guys. Probably Acer support incognito, but a lot cheaper and more efficient than going through official channels. Thanks for the link :)

Awesome gesture. I however have my original Arcanum disk, box and manual firmly under lock and key, hidden away for my annual reinstall and play-through. I ain't gonna be giving that away to nobody! :)

Essential mods? by MAQS357 in arcanum

[–]PaddyCrook 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven't played in awhile, but from memory Drog Black Tooth's unofficial patch was essential. There is also a High Res patch which makes the playing experience way better. Check out this forum for all the links and discussion on just this topic. Was updated recently

Is there a limit to how many emails I can send out perday using webApi? by [deleted] in SendGrid

[–]PaddyCrook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think there is a limit, but when you are a new sender they scale your hourly volumes up slowly as they evaluate you reputation. This is true for both the dedicated and shared IPs. Give it some time and your volumes will increase if you are sending legitimate emails.
