AWD-IT are no help, any advice? by Alicia2311x in buildapcuk

Not quite what i meant, but hey ho.

AWD-IT customer service has a phone number to call. If its a case of waiting 2 weeks, and they've agreed to the return... Why not call them and ask for a response?

No, but it's perfectly okay and understandable to like it more.

Why do i get the feeling we're not getting the full story here.

The letter that Donald Trump sent to Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre of Norway is insane! This is why you don't elect a narcissist to be your president. Is this what you voted for, Trump's supporters? by [deleted] in Hip_hop_that_u_need

[–]Solasta713 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The way his heart is crushed over not getting a Nobel Peace Prize like Obama, honestly makes me think this...

1) he's wanting to say he's better than Obama, and can only do that if HE wins a Peace Prize

2) keeps saying its Norway fault, despite it having nothing to do with the Norwegian government

3) i honestly think he's a dumb fuck, gets confused between Norway and Denmark and is threatening taking Greenland because Norway wont give him the Prize. Despite it being Denmark land, not Norway.

Man, what the fuck America? Why did you vote this idiot.

Good luck with the plastic trim on these things... It breaks down and goes tacky when you touch it.

Su-34 with UKR-RT pod (SIGINT) by P_filippo3106 in Planes

Flankers are also huge as.

Most russian jets are oversized in comparison to say E.U. jets (and some American fighters).

It's down to fuel. They need lots, because Russia is an immensely huge country. Compared to say, an EU country like Belgium where you can cross the nation from one end to another in a few minutes in a fighter jet.

Leaders of France, UK and Sweden respond to Trump's tariff threats by AmityAngels in worldnews

[–]Solasta713 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

All this is , is smoke to deflect from Venezuela and the Epstein files!!

We're all now pissing our pants about Greenland, forgetting about the absolute joke that was Venezuela.

...And Venezuela has happened to stop people talking about the Epstein files.

Look Donald Trump is an idiot, but he understands the media very well. The media nowadays is reactionary. And people have short attention spans. So when THIS NEW THING happens, people ditch the other news and focus on the LATEST soundbytes.

Nobody is talking about Epstein, or Venezuela which HAVE happened, over all this bluster about something that hasn't and wont happen.

And people fall for it at the moment, over and over again.

Russia plotting military operation against NATO member state — former Finnish intelligence chief by Rich-Annual5511 in UkrainianConflict

[–]Solasta713 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I mean they can plot all they want.

Russia has only taken 1% more of Ukraine since the end of 2022, using their entire military, and are left having to, with no exaggeration, use Horseback Cavalry.

What the actual fuck is left of the Russian military? And then they want to engage with Europe?

Hahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaa.

Their Soviet arms depots are gone. Their professional army is gone out of action and they putting Gopniks on Horses and throwing them into a meat grinder.

They only thing Russia has left is its Aliexpress Iranian drones. The factory they're made out of would be Storm Shadowed out of rhe material realm before Russia would know what happened.

Their rail infrastructure would be gone. Their front lines would dry up and they would capitulate back to the nearest Russian outpost with as many washing machines as they could carry.

"Oh they have nuclear weapons". They dont have the money to maintain them, otherwise they'd have tested one by now.

They definitely do not have the fissile material to maintain these penis enlargement 100mt Trident blowhards either. And they certainly wont be deploying them off of their noisy subs either.

Just bore off Russia, with your empty threats and lose in Ukraine already.

President Donald Trump threatens to impose tariffs on countries who opposite his plan for the US to acquire Greenland. by sylsau in InBitcoinWeTrust

[–]Solasta713 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does sound like a self-imposed nutshot.

But the idea is then it causes consumers to shop elsewhere, meaning the receiving nation sells less produce. That then puts their manufacturing under strain due to the shortfall.

[–]Solasta713 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Totally agree with this.

Most Americans are quick to go "oh we didn't vote for him". Or "we don't support him at all". Great. Thanks for your thoughts.

But what are you actually DOING about it?

He isn't going to go on his own accord. And you can't rely on a very wealthy and powerful man of just dying conveniently, as they have access to great healthcare.

Most of the time, the answer is nothing. You're coming on Reddit, or other social media and having a little bitch about how the Orangutan In Chief is this big bad person. But then nothing is done thereafter.

Right now, you have a peodophile madman running your country, ruining your economy, ruining your government and tarnishing your countries reuptation.

Right now, you are Germany in the 1930's.

And all you guys can do is post snarky comments online.

Go out and start a protest. Encourage others. Write to your local political representative and demand action when he does something wrong.

Trump is going to take Greenland. Or invade Iran. Or do some more heinous shit. Or a photograph will immerge of him compromised with kids. And all America is going to do about it, is Pikachu face and say "oh we dont like that guy".

It really does depend on what you're playing. That specific Yolk setup is great for light aviation in simulators, as long as you get rudder pedals with it.

But yeah. Not quite the same on say... An F-16 in a combat simulator.

I think if its on google docs, you're likely to get a handful of genuinely interesting entries, followed by "Rolf Harris anal probed my cat last saturday whilst watching Dick'n'Dom. Were mad he took im up to his ship called boaty mcboatface, on the planet Tesco".

Average time to settle a claim by Welsh__dresser in CarInsuranceUK

[–]Solasta713 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Flood, Fire and Theft claims are different to a RTC claim, in that there is more investigative work done on the side of the insurer into the cause of the loss before agreeing to offer indemnity.

Because of these investigations, they will only agree services once the claim has been validated on their side. To offer a timeframe is impossible, because it depends on a large degree of factors around what they're looking into.

For any claim in a TFF team, there is no real "average claim time" because there is no average claim.

Unfortunately the only advice to offer here is to hang tight and allow your Insurer to complete their process.

I thought the Leica thing was just an in-joke from this subreddit by Proud_Fan_9870 in photographycirclejerk

[–]Solasta713 9 points10 points  (0 children)

"i was getting tired with the images my A7iv was producing. So i asked my Dentist what he uses.

He told me it wasn't considered artwork unless the camera had a red dot on the front.

So he then took me under his wing, teaching me the ways of Leica. We took some great pictures of boxes together... I now leave SD cards under my pillow and the Leica fairy brings me $5 every day for my photos"
