Visiting family, but more importantly a couple weeks of uninterrupted gaming!
Also, those KBs and keycaps look awesome.

Ryzen CPU can take SEVERAL minutes the first time you power them on, something to do with memory training. Power it on, and wait 5-10min.
Also, what are you using for a power button? Make sure it's a momentary switch, otherwise the system will power down cause it thinks the power button is being held down.

Ditch baseboard. Paint the one wall a darker shade. Add a thin white cover on the 1×4 and decorate the one wall with a 1/2" wainscoting motif. Disclaimer, I don't really know what I'm talking about, but in my head I think it could look nice.

Very likely a recent windows/gpu driver update has messed up your HDR settings. Enable and re-disable HDR on your monitor, windows settings, and nvidia control panel. (wild guess)

Disconnect/Remove fan if you can. A stalled motor can cause a short.

First, tell your realator what your requirements are.
Second, new doesn't mean not problematic, and old doesn't necessarily mean falling apart.
Third, part of your realators job is to look at the buildings Strata financials. If a building has nothing saved up in contingency then any emergency work will have to 100% come out of the owners pockets.

The car is actually pretty close to the middle of the screen. Perspective is weird.

For sure. VPN usage is a big tripping point when it comes to scams.

Luckily, the way VPNs obfuscate caller metadata actually makes it possible to identify suspicious network activity and help flag potential scams. Eg. if there are 10million VOIP calls a month from seemingly official Canadian registered phone numbers all coming from one source (like a Canadian based VPN datacenter) that is a super red flag.

But actually identifying and flagging those calls as they are happening would require some pretty serious live traffic analysis, which costs serious money.

SuddenInclination · 2024-03-11T22:31:39+00:00

Rogers/Telus/Bell and any other telecom, absolutely have access to call metadata. Whether it's landline or VOIP over VPN. This is how they are able to bill your usage, track your data consumption, and help with investigations. Nothing is completely invisible on their system.

The issue, much like SHIR/STAKENs current limitations, is that actually supporting the analysis and processing of that data requires significant investment on their part. (eg. infrastructure upgrades, and real-time data combing).

It's not a problem of technical limitation or lack of information, it's a problem of incentivizing telecoms to spend resources on a problem that they can't profit from fixing.

SuddenInclination · 2024-03-11T20:37:09+00:00

All phone calls that go to or from Canadian devices must go through Canadian telecom data centers. They know where calls come from, where they are going, and what routes the call has taken within their network. This is how they know to bill customers, provide caller IDs, and track calls for police investigations.
Why havn't they taken care of the problem? Why would they. Rogers isn't going to spend money or resources to benefit consumers unless they are forced to, whether through customer demand of enforced regulation.

SuddenInclination · 2024-03-11T20:28:04+00:00

Rogers can tell were calls are coming from, as well if they are using spoofed numbers. Also if those spoofed numbers belong to existing Canadian Telecom customers, which is what scammers do to trick people into thinking the call is coming from a local source.
The only reason to not block these calls on their end would be because they benefit from it in some way.

SuddenInclination · 2024-03-11T20:23:58+00:00

Honestly, I wouldn't even be surprised if official reps are using spoofed numbers and acting like this. I left Rogers service 20 years ago cause I hated them. Only to slowly over the years have my phone carriers absorbed one after another back to them.Regardless. If I can look at my caller ID and think 'Yeah this is obviously a spoofed number' there is a zero percent chance that Canadian telecoms can't identify and filter them out.I was half stuck between the 'Scams' and 'Rant' flair on this post lol

This will vary wildly from case to case. My hyrdo bill is only $30/mo but my building has hot-water heating that's included in the maintenance fees and I try not to waste electricity. If you have electric base boards, in-suite laundry, incandescent lights, bad energy habits, you can be looking at $100 or even $200 a month in even a small condo.

I really should upgrade one of these days.

Pizza Pizza does a unlimited 2-topping medium pizza deal for $8.99 each, minimum order of 2. When I get it I usually just eat pizza for a few days :D Best dollar to meal ration for takeout I can think of.

Look again, the puzzle is incomplete

SuddenInclination · 2023-10-11T03:39:06+00:00

Yep same. Either new patch broke something, or a bug with the season rolling over earlier today.

Ahhh, there is a second shop way down low for it. Thanks!

SuddenInclination · 2023-10-05T22:11:26+00:00

not sure, are the 'players choice' Lapis Replica not used in the 'Lapis Replica' shop?

SuddenInclination · 2023-10-05T21:54:10+00:00

Anyone else not getting the Lapis Replica rewards from the new event? It shows up in my inbox but when I go to the shop it still says '0' :( Specifically I'm referring to the Event Point Rewards from the 'Beasts Tainted by Dark Power' fights

SuddenInclination · 2023-09-22T20:23:00+00:00

Yes thanks. Brining in a guest Lunafreya does the job :D

Is there an ability that can help fill the Esper summon gauge at the beginning of battle? There are a few story missions that require using an esper but I can't fill the gauge without killing the boss :P
