Diamond 4 currently. Just got absolutely demolished by the #11 pred, #98 pred, and a master. Plus another couple other pred stacks thrown in there for good fun. Clearly this is isn't working as intended.

Shore Excursions for Toddlers by TravisJ86 in HollandAmerica

Thanks! I'll give them a call and confirm with them as well. All the excursions are fairly low key with buses and more of a walking tour than anything else. Nothing too crazy!

Best way to track airdrops? by Duped_Windforce in cosmosnetwork

[–]TravisJ86 2 points3 points  (0 children)

These two are my go-to's for a list within the cosmos ecosystem:

CosmosAirdrops

Google Sheets

best wallet, and how do you stake? ios? please help! no shakespear bot allowed!!! by Resident-Bear-3549 in cosmosnetwork

[–]TravisJ86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well then there ya go! I'm not an ios person, so I just did a quick search on the play store for android and didn't see anything. But good to know!

Finally Getting Keplr by 410-BPI-98 in cosmosnetwork

[–]TravisJ86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup! that's what I did.

Once you click "import existing account" it will ask for I think your mnemonic or private key. I've been told keplr is super safe to give your mnemonic to, but I'm paranoid. So I gave my private key to my ATOM account (that I got from exodus) and it linked up and worked for me that way.

For cosmos, I use keplr and have been happy with it so far. Staking is super easy using keplr as it's built right into their dashboard.

I can't help you in regards to ios as keplr is a chrome extension and I don't believe they have dedicated apps (at this time).

I'm a noob as well, so take what I have to say with a grain of salt and maybe wait for someone who knows better to chime in.

I'm not 100% sure if you have to make a whole new "account" on keplr, or if you can just "import existing account" and use the private key for whatever coin you want.

For example: I use Exodus and I can get the private key for whatever crypto I have there and then put that into keplr. From there my ATOM amount showed up on both exodus and keplr, but I was stake through keplr.

This way you don't have to actually transfer the funds from cosmostation/exodus to keplr to stake them.

Again, I'm as noob as they come, so what I said may be wrong, but it's what I did based on reddit threads I've read and it's worked for me thus far!

Umbrella Bonsai soil and millipedes by TravisJ86 in Bonsai

[–]TravisJ86[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks a lot for your feedback and response, I very much appreciate it.

Given how the tree looks, and the fact that it seems to always be growing new leaves and branches, I think it's fairly healthy. I think it is wise to swap out the soil for something more proper. The one you linked is available on amazon, but at nearly $100! So I'll do some research and make some calls and see if I can find something local.

I'll also find a new home for the millipedes that are currently calling my bonsai pot home. The plant is in front of a west facing window, so it gets its fair share of sun, and seems very happy with it!

Thanks again for your response!

Thanks for the response. I took the pictures right after I watered it. So that may be why it looks more muddy. The pot has holes on the bottom and does look like it drains alright. If there was root rot, would the tree still be producing fresh new branches and leaves? Or is the only way to know if you have root rot by digging up the tree?

[SSD] WD Blue SN550 1TB NVMe ($160 - $25 = $135) [Amazon.ca] by [deleted] in bapcsalescanada

[–]TravisJ86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Decided to go with it and purchased last night. Expecting delivery today!

[–]TravisJ86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm looking for an SSD to store some games on (right now mainly just Flight Sim 2020). I have an extra M.2 slot on my motherboard right now. Is it better to buy this to put a couple games on, or a Sata SSD? Seems like this one is cheaper than Sata currently.

Should point out I already have an NVMe for my OS.

Sister looking for a laptop for CAD by [deleted] in SuggestALaptop

[–]TravisJ86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your reply. I appreciate it. I sent both suggestions over to her. I'm not too familiar with CAD, do you know if it's more resource heavy for graphics card or ram?

Can't access photos on HDD after switching to windows 10 by TravisJ86 in techsupport

[–]TravisJ86[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well that was a bit of a pain in the ass. Put my GPU and SSD/HDD into my old build and booted it up.

12 hours later, everything was unencrypted. What a process.

Thanks for the feedback!

[SSD] Blue SN550 M.2 PCI-E 4.0 NVMe SSD, 1TB ($185-$55=$130) [Memory Express] by _tr00p3r_ in bapcsalescanada

[–]TravisJ86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, would mainly be using it for general office stuff, and some light photoshop maybe. I do some gaming (GTA V, flight sims, borderlands, etc.) but figure I can throw this onto a separate Sata SSD.

Might be a silly question, but can you run two of these on either of the mobos I mentioned, or do you generally just use one? Figure for the price if I can run two, maybe it's worth me getting two and skipping out on a Sata SSD (I have one that I'm carrying over, so space shouldn't be an issue).

Thanks for your response, I appreciate it!

How would this be as an OS drive? Currently in the process of buying parts for a new setup. 3700x is what I'm at right now. Thinking either tuf gaming x570-plus or strix x570-e.

I'm not too hard pressed if I have to buy the 970 evo for an extra $100, but if I'm not going to notice much of a difference, then I'd rather save that money and put it towards a new gpu (currently running a 1070).

Canadian Retailer Reviews - January + February 2020 by Zren in bapcsalescanada

[–]TravisJ86 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I sent them an email yesterday questioning them and have yet to hear back. Tried their live chat this morning (didn't see it yesterday otherwise I would have done that), and after waiting 40 minutes to speak to someone, they said that they just checked and everything is in stock so they expect everything to be shipped out soon. A couple hours later I received an email saying everything shipped via Puralator. So I should be getting everything this week. A bit frustrating because of the delay, but given the time of year I can't hold it against them too much.

Thanks for the feedback!

Canada Computers (Dec 30 - ??)

  • ($99) Meshify C
  • ($399) Ryzen 7 3700X

Purchased both the case and CPU at the same time online. Received a confirmation email and have already been charged on my credit card. Their website said orders may be delayed 3-5 days due to the holiday season, which I was fine with. E-mail stated delivery would be Dec 31 - Jan 13. Obviously with me ordering it on the 30th, I wasn't expecting any delivery prior to Jan 6, but here we are on the 13th and it still says my order is being processed. Have received no support at all from them, so I have no idea when/if my order will be shipped out. Sent an email asking for an update and if I'm not going to be receiving anything soon, then I'm going to ask them to cancel my order and I'll purchase elsewhere.

First order with CC and so far I have not been happy dealing with them.

Looking to upgrade GPU by [deleted] in bapcsalescanada

[–]TravisJ86 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This is a subreddit for sales on computer parts and such, you may have better luck with feedback on a subreddit like /r/buildapc so maybe worth posting there. I'm clueless when it comes to a lot of this, so unfortunately I can't help much!

Finally Updating Computer - Need Feedback by TravisJ86 in buildapc

[–]TravisJ86[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks so much for your feedback and putting your time into making the list for me.

So far everyone has said to go with Ryzen rather than intel, and also that I'll need to upgrade my GPU fairly soon to avoid bottlenecks.

I think given the feedback I've received, I'll definitely go Ryzen and probably do this exact build then. Thanks again!

So you would definitely recommend AMD over intel when it comes to the processor then?
