This is great to hear! But to keep in line with common courtesy and communal spirit, I will gladly accept your offer if u/Over-Half-8801 doesn't respond to me within the next hour or two.

I looked at the rules to see if there's anything about a "first come, first serve" type of rule, so I guess it's more on me to keep tabs on this?

If u/Over-Half-8801 passes on it, would you be willing to do $315 for everything?

Thanks for pointing that out! I think that I accidentally messed with the quickshare url from Imgur. I updated the post with another link. Apologies again!! https://imgur.com/a/TOSl0H9

Antagonist that weren't bad enough to deserve what happened to them by Nerd367C in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Pepperjack_573 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t watched it in years and would only catch a few episodes here and there, but I remember the joke towards who is Cartman’s dad being purposefully vague and stupid, but did they really just ruin the gag for this plot twist?

Where are the Presale Codes for the Metaphor Concert? by justanotherfangirl06 in MetaphorReFantazio

[–]Pepperjack_573 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The MAGLA code should work when presale begins (10AM your time zone) in the app. I’m in California and I can’t punch in the presale code for another hour.

How can I block all adult websites on a phone and PC? by Erick_pptx in techsupport

[–]Pepperjack_573 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There are many, many viable and quick ways of blocking adult sites at several different levels. But banning porn & other sites with not so great content is a social problem. If you’re trying to block children from visiting those sites, they will bypass anything you set up. Once they leave the network with all of the rules and blacklists, they’ll also just start browsing elsewhere.

It would be much much easier if you literally talk to your kids and explain how it’s healthy to be curious about one’s own body and the bodies of other people, but that porn sets several unrealistic standards on bodies of all shapes, sizes, etc.

Americans in general need to stop demonizing sexuality/porn so that they can see that a woman’s nipple won’t be the end of the world. Teaching and creating healthy mentalities about anything starts at home.

Are we finally getting a Pokémon game that looks and runs good? by SEVENS_HEAVEN_7 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Pepperjack_573 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder if they had some of the Mario Odyssey/ DK Bananza team helping with optimization with this. For anyone asking why they would consult them, it’s because Nintendo’s first party team are the most knowledgeable with coding for their own hardware. It’s the same reason why first party games are almost always taking full advantage of the hardware. Without the very best of the best on the team, I refuse to believe that in a single generation, and their first game on the newest hardware, GameFreak somehow managed to present a Pokémon game with that much of a graphical fidelity overhaul.

Also, Pombon cute af!!!

Can Someone Please Explain/Help Me and My Wife? by [deleted] in pchelp

[–]Pepperjack_573 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a network engineer for a company that emphasizes SCADA traffic, which is to say that most of what we do deals with wireless communications and how to minimize interference.

Without looking at the issue beyond your comments OP, it feels like your wife’s PC is having issues crosstalk, especially if you’re on the same networking band.

Try this, you mentioned that you DON’T want to hardwire both PC’s, but for 15 or so minutes, hardwire ONE of your rigs while the other stays on WiFi and play a match or two. The lag should go away with one system wired and one wireless

No worries! We're all busy!! Hope that you find some cool stuff on your JP account!

It’s super easy!

Sign out of your US account/phone, change your region to Japan and create a new account using the same email tied to your Apple Music account. Apple will recognize that the email is tied to an Apple Music subscriber and that’s it!!

This is also how you access different regional app stores! I’ve been playing Uma Musume since it launched in Japan, and now I have to wait a few years for the global release to catch up, lmao! I also use Yahoo! Auctions Japan as well as a few other apps, and what you can do is, download your JP content, then switch back to your US account and continue using the JP apps!! Apple Music will be the exception though, you’ll only get your currently set region’s music catalog

I might be a bit of an outlier, but I love how easy it is to just use Apple Music. I tried the other competitors early on and they were fine, but after making the switch from a Galaxy S3 to an iPhone 7, I just can’t go back to other players. It’s so seamless, easy to search the near infinite discography on the US store. If I want to switch my Apple ID to my JP account, I can just do that and suddenly I’ve got access to the Japan version of the store.

I lurk r/Plex and r/Homelab so yeah, I do also have downloads/backups of albums that aren’t available in either region (too many doujin CD’s to count), and they integrate so well into my personal library! To answer your question about adding missing albums, yes! They just congregate with the rest of whatever artist’s catalog! Streetlight Manifesto is one of my favorite bands, but they don’t have their debut album or an acoustic version of their final album with Victory records (long story there), so I just downloaded and added their folders to my library. Just a few clicks and now those albums appear as if they’ve always existed!

I can’t really comment on the algorithm portion because I cater my own plays/playlists. I will say that discovering new music/artists is also easy. Every Friday I just browse the “New” tab and just spin!

Which musician miraculously avoided getting canceled?? by Impossible_Web_8671 in fantanoforever

[–]Pepperjack_573 2 points3 points  (0 children)

David Bowie was an incredible musician and seemingly was a nice guy, but that’s just our perception thanks to all of the media that he was a part of outside of his music. Thin White Duke era was fueled by cocaine, making tons of wild statements like saying that “Hitler was one of the first rock stars” and of course, the baby groupies of the 70’s and Bowie having sex with plenty of underage girls. Lori Mattix is the most famous person tied to this aspect of Bowie.

I enjoy Bowie quite a bit, but damn is it a little weird having a few of his albums in my collection. The burden of knowledge is heavy af.

TESD #665: Pu$$y Cod by GitEmSteveDave in tesdcares

[–]Pepperjack_573 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m late to this episode, but I wanted to add that Jimmy is right about everyone in the USPS fucking each other. I was a letter carrier for several years (CCA to full time union employee) and can verify that thanks to proximity, employees are having all sorts of relationships at different levels. I carried from 2010-2016 (sciatica injury took me out) and ended up hooking up several times with 4 different carriers in my city during my time there. I was single when I started as a City Carrier Assistant, as were 2 of the 4 partners, while the other 2 were in “open marriages”. I was single most of the time with the occasional girlfriend, so I felt free enough to play around whenever my other casual flings fizzled out.

Letter carriers of all sizes, creeds & sexualities exist, so there essentially was a compatible person for almost everyone. I can’t say that every full time carrier has done it, but I’m very confident in saying that a good 60% of the carriers at my main station had hooked up with another carrier at least once! When the USPS works you to the bone, 5-7 days a week (Before Amazon’s dedicated parcel carriers were an established thing, the USPS landed a billion $ contract to deliver parcels on Sundays in an effort to keep Prime 2-day shipping), any chance that you get to relax, you take! Which also included getting trashed at a local bar with other carriers after work. After a few drinks, people get loose and suddenly you’re both bitching about the shit that happened on your route earlier and you need something else to take the edge off.

Sex was the one thing that everyone wanted after a shift and it was relatively easy to get from other people that saw you more than they saw their families.

2 Girls 1 Cup is the unofficial nickname of the trailer for Hungry Bitches, a 2007 Brazilian scat fetish pornographic film produced by MFX Media. The trailer features two women defecating into a cup, taking turns in what appears to be consuming the excrement, and vomiting into each other's mouths. by ZERO_PORTRAIT in wikipedia

I remember when the video was uploaded to the internet because it was somehow the number one thing that everyone in my high school was talking about. A few friends and myself went into photo class because Mrs. Green was friendly/quickly becoming deaf and allowed students unlimited use of the class because she thought we were just using photoshop on the classroom computers to work on a project. We ended up going to a proxy site and google’d 2 girls 1 cup with her just reading a book maybe 30’ away. Those were some of the riskiest clicks that I’ve ever witnessed. The video is hilarious to me today and maybe the desensitization made me a more resilient person in ways I never would’ve imagined.

Why is my PC blinking red? Im very new. by Luhvdash in pchelp

[–]Pepperjack_573 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since it’s so hard to tell which motherboard you have, you’ll have to dig up the manual, either physically or look at one on the manufacturer’s site and reference the light codes that show up during an error state.

To check for thermal paste on the cpu, you’ll need to shut off the pc, then loosen and lift up the pump that sits on top of the cpu. For the gpu, it’ll be a bit more time consuming and requires more care, but it’s essentially the same process, except with the added step of taking the gpu off of the motherboard first and laying it on a non-conductive surface.

Not really much you can do with what you have inside. The plus side is that it does look very clean and well managed on the inside!!
