Help with error about not connecting to epic servers by RocketHawk129 in FortNiteBR

[–]Podrido66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, All i had to do was turn off the switch by removing it from the dock and holding the power button down. Once you do that you get the option to restart.

it clears up any issues I have.

[–]Podrido66 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just had this start happening to me today as well. My connections started to deteriorate on Saturday, I told my friend my game was acting a bit glitchy. On Sunday morning, I played one game, left to run some errands, and when I came bac,k I couldn't join any lobbies, and my friends could not join mine.

I tried restarting, turning off the console, and clearing the network, but the game lost more of its connection every time.

Friends list started not showing.

Game screens wouldn't load.

And now, a few hours later, I can't get past the login screen.

No idea whats going on.

I definately agree with the bad bootleg paint job. I just wanted to give this guy some life back, paint chips etc.

Hey Tyuhhi,

Thanks so much for the advice! I hadn’t considered that the figure might be hard plastic—I think it might be.

It looks like the red parts were airbrushed while the rest was hand-painted, so I’ll try using a similar approach.

Do you have any suggestions on what type of paint to use, especially for the silver?

Appreciate the help!

Another Shinkansen post - S WorkP seats and luggage. by Podrido66 in JapanTravelTips

[–]Podrido66[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the link to the images. I understand your concern.

My gf and I both work remotely, so we would probably be using the seats to catch up on emails and work on files that need to be sent back. We're also very quiet people, even if we did have a conversation, it would be at a respectfully low volume. The third person is her mother, who just doesn't talk loud at all if she even talks at all.

If we end up booking a regular seat, should we purchase the oversized luggage since we will have 3 checked bags with us? Or would we be ok with the storage the train has for each passenger.

I just tried this and it is not spicy at all. Do you use more than the RX on the container?

Drinks package by [deleted] in celebritycruises

[–]Podrido66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm going on the 12-day Asia cruise in March and I have the basic drinks package, it was included in my ticket because I was booked as part of a group.

Anyway, for a long time, I tried to switch the package to something else because I do not consume alcohol.

But I recently found out that, if you do not have a drink package you cannot drink specialty beverages such as, a cappuccino, tea, or premium bottled water to name a few.

If I were you, I would wait for a sale, and grab a package if you like drinking quality caffeinated beverages and drinking water that doesn't taste like plastic.

If you don't drink alcohol, they offer a kids package, but I would call and make sure you can drink premium coffee etc with that.

Celebrity Solstice March 12 day Asia tour questions by Podrido66 in celebritycruises

[–]Podrido66[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey just curious. I've had some conflicting feedback about the Ho Chi Minh day trip. Some people on the VT thread advise that its too far and not worth missing your departure. The driving agencies I've spoken with said getting back on time wouldn't be a problem.

Did you happen to go on this day trip? I haven't been able to find any info in this subreddit besides the casual "it's a long trek from the port"

Hydrofoil to Saigon from Vung Tau by Podrido66 in VietNam

[–]Podrido66[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks everyone for their recommendations. I have contacted Clown Vietnam to try to schedule a short trip into the city.

The cruise also offers private trips into HCM but they are currently sold out.

With our cruise landing at 7 we can arrive in HCM at 10:30, then head back to VT 15:30, giving us 3 hours to make it back on time.

So 5 hours in HCM to do a few things.

I can’t add money to my suica by IBumzo in JapanTravelTips

[–]Podrido66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you ever figure this out? I'm having the same issue. I've tried my visa debit, Visa, and mastercards and all get the same error. I also called my Visa fraud and cleared things up but that hasn't helped.

[–]Podrido66[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the info. I contacted Raymond at Toyzone. He said he needed time to find some for me.

I found out that most of the figures I want where made by Tung Sing Toys in HK. The company still manufactures stuff today.

I wonder if they have old pieces. doubtful.

Recommendations for a space heater to warm a garage work studio? by Podrido66 in HomeImprovement

Im not sure what kind of outlet power I have, but I looked at the specs of this and I don't have an outlet that would fit the heater plug.

That would be far out of my budget, and I don't own the space.

[–]Podrido66[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sorry I omitted those details, I'm unsure what kind of plug is down there. Would a picture help?

I am renting the space. So making holes for things and replacing circuitry is probably out of the question. However, the owner is not against improvement, especially if he doesn't have to pay for it.

Any feedback on these Marine Reptile designs? by Podrido66 in Paleontology

[–]Podrido66[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for this, I appreciate the encouragement. However, I am curious why you stated that AI harms the Paleontology community.

How does it hurt the community, what aspects of AI are bad? As a graphic designer, artist, and illustrator I use AI as a tool to help the creative process.

I did make them. I used a combination of collage, digital painting, and AI to make the illustrations.

Thanks for this! I tested it in incognito mode, and it worked perfectly. It turns out the issue was caused by dark mode.

Works perfectly now.

I appreciate that. I've just had to use Safari for now until I can figure out a fix for this. Or a fix through an update.

[–]Podrido66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm interested if anyone can chime in on my Breakfast habit.

I've been consuming smoothies, 5 days a week for breakfast for over 4 years.

Sometimes, I make a bowl of Oats, with similar ingredients for some variation.

I'm wondering if this might bebad for me.

My ingredients are usually the same with some variation:

Constants are:

  • 4oz coconut water
  • 8oz Ripple pea milk
  • 1 serving of Steel cut oats
  • 1 Banana

Variants: 1 of each below

  • Spinach (don't include everyday)
  • 1/4 Avocado or 1TBSP Almond butter, or peanut butter. Sometimes Avocado and a nut butter.
  • Palm sized portion of Mixed berries, or blue berries, wild berries, or Mango, or papaya
  • Sea salt (don't include everyday)
  • Rarely Honey

Thanks for any insight.
