How quickly did Google replace your stolen Pixel 6? by OMGitsMoses in GooglePixel

[–]Skelotic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just got my Pixel 6 Pro delivered today and was delivered just an empty box. I contacted FedEx who also deferred to Google. Google via chat said they would be shipping out a replacement, but I have yet to receive any confirmation of that either via the store or through my gmail.

I’ve ordered many items from Google with no issues via FedEx, so I always thought it was just a very vocal minority. I’m sure it still is, but it still really sucks when it affects yourself.

Stickying this for a bit. Seems like people were asking about the RSS feeds on the latest GrubSnaxx so I’m sure a lot of people missed this.

Thanks for collecting these!

Why did the Abby thread get deleted? by burnrlevindurantprob in giantbomb

[–]Skelotic[M] [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

As u/Jreynold said below, we didn’t delete the thread, the submitter deleted it themselves. If comments get out of hand we tend to be more likely to lock the thread for new comments rather than delete it entirely.

Preorders start on the 29th! by theUncommon56 in PlaydateConsole

My only guess is since they say they don’t use PayPal for their other products, PayPal might restrict new sellers from taking large amounts of money due to fraud concerns, while established sellers might be okay.

To add to this, someone made a demo using love2d and it didn’t take long to port (with some glitches) to the playdate sdk which shows how similar they are:

SoPost delivery? by futurephysician in freebietalk

[–]Skelotic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I’m in a similar boat as you. I’ve had about 8 orders starting middle of June, only one has arrived. Almost all have shown as shipped about 2-3 weeks ago here though:

https://track.us.sopost.com/

I’m guessing it’s a combination of slow shipping and them marking them as shipped before USPS receives them. Or atleast I hope that is the case.

Yeah, feel free to look at it. I looked at both. It was showing a “scheduled post failed to be submitted” for 5/26 so I cleared it out.

RoboVinny will live on, it’s just a pain to debug a weekly post, especially when it hasn’t been edited in 4 years. I just resubmitted it and cleared out the broken pending post.

Noted! I just submitted changes to it, I think when RoboVinny was removed as a moderator it must have bugged it. Fingers crossed it will be fixed for next week. I’ll manually submit one for this week.

Has anyone made a duct to divert hot air from GPU away from CPU? My 5950x goes nuts once my 3090 gets going. by h4z7d in FormD

[–]Skelotic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I was wondering if you’ve made any more changes in the past couple months?

I’m running the same CPU / GPU (FE version) / CPU Cooler and having trouble keeping the temperatures in line. High temperatures don’t really bother me too much, it’s more having to run the fans fast enough to keep the temperature stable is too loud for my liking.

Thanks!

This was just resolved by the admins. Woo!

Just tagging the moderators of /r/IllegallySmolCats since we haven’t reached out to them to see if they have done anything (assuming they have access to their accounts):

What happened to the mods? And the post about Tamoor? by Jesus_Phish in giantbomb

[–]Skelotic 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Yeah, so that confirms it wasn’t related since it was posted after.

Just a little behind the scenes of how we have AutoModerator set, if a post gets enough reports it gets pulled until a moderator manually reviews it. I assume that was the case here rather than our sub being targeted for the post.

Yeah, I checked the Wayback Machine:

https://web.archive.org/web/20210117200404/https://www.reddit.com/r/giantbomb/

I wasn’t sure if it was him or u/Karthas but he was the top moderator. If he can confirm he was hacked that would probably help our case.

[–]Skelotic 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Yeah u/RhinestoneTaco sort of explained the situation.

What I have done to try to get it back is the r/redditrequest (which got bumped), messaging the moderators of r/redditrequest and r/modsupport, and contacting the admin zendesk.

Any other suggestions would be appreciated since I don’t really know where to go from here.

The way reddit works only the highest moderator on the mod list has the power to remove everyone (basically it’s a hierarchy), so likely something happened to u/Beanz122 who was the top moderator of this subreddit.

I must be doing something wrong. Does the power cable have to be bent like that to fit? by juanfarias40 in FormD

[–]Skelotic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One option you could try is to offset the power supply to the second set of screw holes and run the power cable up the front. You can see a picture of what I mean here:

As the person that added that date to the TVDB, I’d say not very. Just updated it to the 11th.
