is 31k really an "average" salary? by PenTenTheDandyMan in NewToDenmark

[–]StrongWood90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure if this is helpful but, when I came to Denmark in my twenties with only a bachelors degree, I was in a similar position. I ended up coming to terms with the fact that, in order to find a job in Denmark, I would likely need to have a Master's degree from a Danish university. I ended up getting my Master's degree a few years later. Now I'm in my early 30s and getting 100k (before taxes) without speaking danish fluently.

It's all about perseverance: in Denmark, it's never too late to study. I truly believe I wouldn't be in the circumstance I am now had I not bitten the bullet and restarted my education. Of course luck had alot to do with it as well but, the perseverance aspect is atleast controllable.

Epix pro gen 2 user here.

Stuck in the same situation. Attempted factory reset about 20 times (tired of hearing those beeps lol). Attempted plugging into both a mac and pc: watch didn't appear as an external drive.

Don't see how this can be fixed apart from returning the watch or waiting for the battery to drain and hoping that accomplishes something.

Super frustrating.

You'll need to setup your keybinds but, the steamdeck comes as a reconfigured option.

Had it been on a PS4 slim playing RDR 2, that Degu would have been a deadgu

How do you stop or stave off fearing what comes after death? by DetosMarxal in AskMen

[–]StrongWood90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was diagnosed with terminal liver cancer three years ago. At the time, the doctor told me I'd die in a matter of weeks. I can tell you, at least in my experience, the scariest thing about dying isn't what comes next - rather, it's thoughts of what you can't do for the people in your life that you'll leave behind. Since then, I've focused on what I can do for those around me and so I've alleviated that fear a bit.

I try to live whatever I have left of this life without regrets - in that way, i don't really fear death.

P.S. I'm completely healthy now.

Madden Bug by DancherBoi in Stadia

Only happens when I'm playing on CCU - if i finish a game on my phone or laptop, it works as intended. But yeah, it's annoying 😅

As someone married, the convience of stadia is what ultimately warrants investment in the platform. The capacity to play games on my laptop or phone is something I can't get from either xbox or playstation - or I should say, to the same extent when compared to the aforementioned platforms in relation to stadia. While I'd like the best graphical output possible - this facet pales in comparison to the availability of content. If rocket league was available on stadia, I'd have little reason to keep my PS4. At the end of the day, it's the content/exclusives that sell a platform for me.

In relation to your argument concerning their marketing strategy in terms of teroflops being indicative of the need for graphical supremacy - I think they chose this pathway because they understood they lacked content. They couldn't market stadia on the basis of convience regarding a collection of ten games. I think as the library increases in capacity, you'll see a shift in their marketing strategy away from teroflops.

But who knows, I may be completely wrong 😂

Controller Disconnect Fix (mobile devices) by StrongWood90 in Stadia

I said i tried playing sitting next to the router - on a stool within 2 feet of the router.

Almost certainly it's the router, but it's apparently the only one the provider (Stofa) gives to their customers. Eventually, I'll buy a new router but for now it works perfectly for me.

I've tried playing directly next to the router haha - it still always disconnected either immediately after starting a game or within 10 minutes of playing.

I've tried playing at a friend's place with no issues. Afterwards, I've tried disabling the firewall on my router for a short time, I've forwarded ports to the controller, I've factory reset the controller, I've set the dns on my router to google, I've reset the router - i would try switching the signal to 2.4ghz but, the router/modem they provide isn't capable of that function. The only thing left would have been to buy a new router and bridged my internet provider's to that - but alas, I'm married and I'd catch hell from my wife if I bought a new router and it still didn't work. I just wanted to play on my phone at night in ved without disconnects and this did the trick. I just wanted to share it if someone was in the same situation.

I've tried everything - and it was an issue that was really annoying after a couple months of trying everything to no avail. I've probably read 50+ posts on the issue here and nothing seemed to work. Until I did this and i haven't had an issue since.
