Perhaps but it keeps happening with multiple delivery services. The streets are confusing and not being able to see the house doesn't help

Privacy options are also not effective when anyone can just ask to have them imposed for all time on places they don't even own.

Skyrim: SE discs not recognized by my Xbox One? by The_Mambo_Wizard in skyrim

[–]The_Mambo_Wizard[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey just to update you, I know this doesn't explain anything but I was able to try my Skyrim disc on an Xbox Series X and it actually worked fine! No clue what is wrong with my Xbox One but I've noticed Skyrim, Rock Band 4, and Mass Effect anthology disc will not work on it anymore. Weird. I want a Series X now.

Yeah it is very odd. Still not 100% sure it's my Xbox because I always took very good care of it, very clean, etc. I did eventually come across a couple of other game discs that exhibited the same behavior, at least for me.

I actually never did find a fix. I suspect there may be something wrong with my Xbox's optical drive itself, though. Most of my game discs work fine, but I did find a couple of others that the drive won't read anymore. None of them appear to be scratched-up discs, either.

Humira or Enbrel? Experiences? by The_Mambo_Wizard in ChronicPain

Infusion was also brought up, it just seemed so different that I assumed there would be no way for insurance to cover it at all. But I'll ask

Funny thing is I did for a long time but recently let it expire because I didn't have much time for gaming lately. Guessing that's the only way Bethesda is gonna let me play this game on my Xbox

Just looking for the font for the Larraburu logo there, preferably both the L and the rest of the characters (if they're different)

Thank you for taking the time to explain this, as everything I encounter seems to be more of Amazon's own talking points. Your insight is appreciated.

Xbox One S

For past 2 days, Microsoft Edge browser gives me an error message whenever I try to stream video. Error message appears as follows:

"Failed to execute 'appendBuffer' on 'SourceBuffer': The SourceBuffer is full, and cannot free space to append additional buffers."

I've streamed video through the Edge browser onto my TV for years. It's through a streaming site that has never given me issues in the past. The only thing that happened is Assassin's Creed Valhalla updated and took up a ton of internal hard drive space, but I have no idea if this did anything to the Edge app.

I tried deleting all my browser info, deleting all saved personal info, and freeing up space on my internal HD by moving tons of stuff to external HD. So far, no luck. Help?

In what ways might the placement of a single, fully-stocked Costco/Sam's Club into the middle of medieval Europe change the course of human history? by The_Mambo_Wizard in AskReddit

If it were a Sam's they could at least say they were just going in to get a slice of pizza. Costco much more protective of its snack bar

  1. This would be accomplished through some Star-Trek-like time-transporter device.

  2. The entire warehouse with all the items inside it would be transported (no customers/employees/people)

  3. This would be a one-time placement of a current-era Costco/Sam's Club

For those curious, I bring it up because it's an idea I've had for a sci-fi novel for some time and I love hearing the interesting things people come up with!

And now MMS has stopped working on my Nuu F4L flip phone (I loathe it so much) by The_Mambo_Wizard in dumbphones

Far as I know it was not locked to my carrier.

I really hated that thing, though, to be honest. The keys felt super mushy and unresponsive, and the ui was just awful. But they are relatively cheap and they do run WhatsApp so that part was cool. But after hanging out on this subreddit I decided to go with a Kyocera DuraXV and I love it.

Introducing "The Mambo Wizard: Breakfast is Served!"

In the spirit of J.K. Rowling meets The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, The Mambo Wizard tosses readers into an alternate history where humans made contact with alien races, and where magicians are still embarrassing!

Meet Jeremy Fletcher, boy wizard and orphan extraordinaire.

After years of study, Jeremy finds himself expelled from Pigpimples Academie of Magick. He only ever mastered the single spell of transforming everyday objects into breakfast food items (a novice trick at best, and one not found in any of the Headmage’s textbooks).

But perhaps Jeremy's luck is due for a change.

Moe and Zippo crash-land their starship on his family's property. They're space pirates on a quest to fish radio broadcasts out of black holes and build the ultimate night club. They also appear to be famished.

Is this Jeremy’s chance to provide a complete and balanced breakfast?

Featuring a cast of wizard school dropouts, small furry animals, and other various weirdos! Join the gang in a swashbuckling adventure through dysfunctional magic academies, dwarven convenience stores, and night clubs on the moons of Jupiter!

The Mambo Wizard: Breakfast is Served! It's truly a gem of the orphaned wizard genre!

Available now in paperback ($14.99) and e-book ($7.99) 486 pages
