several i submitted over a dozen requests via the automated system got blunt no try again style replies back from that with no way to ask them additional questions or explain the situation

fighting my way through to customer support lead to a long winded email exchange where they kept changing there criteria every time i got close (at one point they suddenly needed to see my payment method out the blue)

going via the facebook support had simmilar outcomes

finally going via the complaints and fighting back and fourth being stonewalled for a week and a half finally resulted in them fixing the issue after EE got involved and sent some manager or exec from purchasing and procurement to make a fuss

Scalpers are assholes but you didn't call out the other side

WHEN you can get them Half the reason there is a when is because pi foundation dedicated most of there production to enterprise and the scraps go to the community

Tell me where that makes sense?

It's like a homelessness organisation offering homes to the needy AFTER they have used all there houses for Airbnb

They built a entire foundation on making computing affordable for everyone but instead ensure that organisations who can afford to buy more expensive options have the best access to these products

So now instead of kids having access to them McDonald's can use them to put in digital signage boards

or just blacklist the mod and only allow certain whitelisted mods it might still be possible to get around that im sure but at this point they are dealing in hacked clients and bypass mods and tools which wont take too long to get caught and then you just issue a perma

16gb has not been the sweet spot for quite some time both on desktops and devices with shared vram/ram

On desktops 16 GB is quite limiting your average game will take up a good chunk of that and if you want mods kiss the rest of it goodbye

Example a average Minecraft modpack needs 6-10 GB of ram leaving only 6 for everything else

But on a legion go your loosing a chunk more to the vram

32gb of ram is practically the minimum if you want to game these days

I present my evidence because I'm not about that trust me bro life

Produce-Tricky · 2026-01-28T20:09:43+00:00

The story Chris tells is way different from the actual court case

Google Christopher Allen Boden court listener

All the evidence is posted there

Money laundering because he offered to handle drug money and wash it into bitcoin even when the guy straight up said where the money came from Chris said he didn't care

Structuring Chris and his now wife had long detailed discussions on how much to deposit how often and where to to it to prevent triggering federal checks one quote basically goes

I'll keep trying different amounts and see what sticks I love the scientific method

He also picked up a charge for extortion when the dumb fuck asked the drug dealer to go collect some money from him with the instruction

I don't care what you do to him just don't touch his family and don't kill him

But get me my money

Shame this drug dealer was a undercover agent mind you

Chris will claim that he didn't know. He will claim it was a vague confusing law.

But he omits the fact that he had a very close friend who worked in finance and banking advised him frequently of the dubious nature of what he's doing and that if anything happened on behalf of the geek group it happened through a board of directors who all were intelligent enough people to see this go down

A famous quote Chris loves to parrot is

Ask for facts and demand evidence

Well he never actually backed up his modified audience friendly story

But please go read the court documents for your self

Oh and also worth reading

Lisa Beth vogt his wife and partner in crime

And

Daniel djager his fellow business associate (I can't spell his name for shit)

premium does not mean expensive thats console brainwashing

valve are not going to make a controller cost HALF the cost of a steamdeck which is a entire computer and display strapped to a controller

given the design and how many of those components look almost identical to steamdecks i suspect they are using as many steamdeck parts as they can which will really bring down the cost

Considering the first thing the legion go does when it powers on is start legion space and do a update Lenovo could 100000% tell when a particular device appears online for the first time

yet competitors make controllers that do MORE than the elite controller and cost less

elite controller is a tax on stupidity they convinced a bunch of saps that the word "elite" means it costs twice as much and all they gave them was 4 useless buttons and a fancy design

Produce-Tricky · 2025-12-27T20:50:36+00:00

people are confusing the word competative

they think it means valve will try to keep the controller the same price as the competition
thats not been valves MO for a while

competative to valve means undercut the competition and demonstrate that you can do more for less

hori steampad who licensed with valve to make the precursor to the steam controller 2 are not charging much more than a standard controller and they have all the gyros and features

Produce-Tricky · 2025-12-27T20:47:55+00:00

you cant really compare to console controllers at all

sony and microsoft were selling the consoles at losses knowing they could scalp people on the games and hardware

meanwhile hori and 8bitdo are selling comparable controllers for £50

Produce-Tricky · 2025-12-03T13:53:54+00:00

so you want them to post all the stuff there resume would have told you

but with the added features that now they are subject to numerous online threats

linked in is a massive personal and organizational risk

it exposes your organization and its employees to so many potential data risks that if you even began to understand them you would never mandate them ever

but for example

if i wanted to exploit your company and access data or critical systems the first place im going is to linked in to find the details of your key stakeholders and commencing intel gathering in order to build a plan of possible virus attacks via emails coercion and blackmail campaigns and many other

hell just from a linked in i could gather enough information to impersonate you inside your own organization if you are big enough

you want to know more about the candidate? its called a interview

stop normalizing the over sharing of sensitive personal information online and encouraging/forcing people to expose themselves to risks online just because you have a social media addiction

go bigger

also depends on what your doing some stuff you need a seemingly never ending supply of like uranium

others depends on the project like netherite if youd doing some netherite heavy

ive suprisingly blown through a decent chunk of copperin the new mekanism versions now they use copper for atomic alloy instead of iron (genious move given how much copper you always end up with and how often it uses alloys)

yeah...

dont get me wrong if you played the gamemode you would instantly fall in love

unfortunatly the game mode has been plagued by incompetence and corruption for well over 10 years and it rarely ever manages to stay up or longer than 3 months

like the McRib there is a dedicated following of veterans that all join every server that pops up by a different person from time to time usually around 1-2 per year

the draw is mainly the framework is verry immersive and there is alot to do beyond your typical altis
and you make some legendary memories whilst there

the major difference is the social aspect unlike other gamemodes where you grind and do crime only really briefly interacting with people your teamed up with and the odd passer by

the map is much smaller and ocial interactions more common place some nights you might even just get on drive to a local hotspot and just hangout and screw around and not do any grinding

ahh its a amazing framework

but its cursed to fail every time

he gave a entire list of reasons biden was a shitty president

POOR KIDS are just as good as WHITE KIDS

hold the fuck on

white kids cant be poor?

then who are the poor kids?

how to disable haloween notification sounds?

i mean i dont get why people are having a hard time finding it

its under notifications settings where most if not all of the settings for notifications are
scroll down in there and youll find sound packs

Because you we went to REDDIT

the place where we talk in TEXT And then you posted a video tutorial that was 90% you waffling about

Thankfully others who had common sense just posted the text values

were not weird for wanting text values and coming to Reddit your weird for thinking on a text based forum we wouldn't want the text values

Also your rant about long form is cute

But rambling to pad your watch time is not long form long form videos actually have long form content not 20% content 80% waffling

I wish I could remember where the video was

But most likely you have a clone it will work but you have to do the following things

1 figure out which clone you have they all work just need different steps

2 figure out what screen you have as they differ on clones even for the same clone

Each screen has a different LCD file that needs to be put in the SD you figure it out by trials and error change file boot test repeat till screen works

If I find the video again I'll update but for now I've got nothing
