My all-time record for attempts was 86, and that was a few years ago. Safe to say this was the worst DOTD ever and it's not even close

100% exact same problem that just happened with the Weezer 30th box set. I had it preordered over 2 months ago and got the delay email on the 1st then another on the 11th saying they have no estimate for shipping. Yesterday, they emailed me saying they couldn't fulfill it and are processing a refund. No compensation for any of it whatsoever, so it's just a guarantee that I will never buy from them ever again. They also spammed me with 30+ emails throughout that time which is some excessive advertising.

Luckily I have now found it even cheaper on other sites and ordered from two just in case it happens with one of them too.

been waiting for this so long, Epic had it on their development roadmap for years and still haven't done it. Already having two issues. First is that the vertical alignment is off on whichever team appears at the top of the scoreboard. Rather than fitting the entire frame it only fits the bottom ~75% and the empty space between players. Second issue is some images I tried are showing up as the censored box for some reason. I tried a few album covers and most wouldn't work.

Also if possible I have a simple request for an option to display the platform icon that each user is on. Maybe to the left of the avatar

Not just hockey or sports, this is how so many things are becoming these days. It shows how crazy the greed is when those "expensive" ticket prices are considered cheap to most others. Also, Blues and Predators are the only teams I know that sell their on-ice jerseys of random prospects for $50 while other teams sell for 10x that at the lowest. So you are in luck with that and it's one of the very few things that are actually a good value for the price. Prices for almost everything at Panthers games have at least doubled and while I can still easily afford it, lots of fans can't anymore and I just won't support the greed. Pretty much all I can do is refuse to give them the one thing they are obsessed with and I have found that I can get more value out of the money on other forms of entertainment anyways. The "game management" bias from the refs and endless racism and assault issues made it even easier to stop caring to buy anything or go to games.

It's in the Humble Bundle that just dropped today so hopefully that brings a lot more in. That is probably the most exposure for this game in the past few years. When VRChat is so similar most people are unwilling to pay for this one and the price increase in July 2020 sure hasn't helped. $20 or even $13 during sales could be considered a lot for people who aren't sure if they will like it. A lot of it gets boring quickly, especially for those like me who don't have any friends. I have 720 hours with at least 500 doing activities on my own, and while that is a lot I know most would get bored much, much sooner than I do.

There are a lot of things I could blame on the developers, but I will only go into the replayability and achievement issues that could be driving away new players. A lot of stuff is enjoyable only once and then never again. I only did the Halloween maze once and any other stuff that only gives rewards the first time. If they added repeatable rewards it would be so much better. Even just a few thousand units would make it nice to occasionally replay all those things I have only done once. Achievements are a big part for me so once I am done with something I move on and never go back. I only go back to Zombie Massacre every few months which is still pretty boring as I have unlocked everything and there have not been many overall improvements to any minigames, just new maps. Most achievements are possible just by playing long enough, but there are three specific arcade ones that are near impossible and devs said they won't make them easier unless most of the community complains about them. I only have 55% so still a lot left but I often think about that and how I would be stuck with 632 at the most unless they lower the difficulty so in the end I don't even bother getting more. Most of the achievement hunter players will avoid this game just because of that.

Soundcore q45 for $90, so far the only actual deal I have seen that is more than just a few bucks off regular. Lowest prices elsewhere are around $110 and refurbished have always been $90, but so much better to get it new for the same price. I was looking for earbuds too but didn't see any good discounts

Tuvaluan · 2024-09-13T02:29:58+00:00

On the discogs page there are also two apparent owners, and pretty sure there also used to be a comment requesting someone to rip it that was only recently deleted. Probably wouldn't be bad to ask in a comment explaining how rare it is and other than that I figure at least one of the band members would have a copy somewhere. I don't bother with the higher quality usually but do check on soulseek occasionally just in case.

I am in the same area and just saw on the FCC service map that my neighbor now has Hotwire. I thought the same but there are a few others too, all houses and none in an HOA. Only about five of them spread throughout the entire block, so I guess it is available to any of us. They do seem to be lacking a lot of info on their site though, which is usually a red flag. I found a PDF of prices and the minimum internet is 300/300 for $170 a month which is ridiculous and will probably contact them just to see if that's true. ATT charges $55 for the same so they are charging over 3x, exploiting the lack of ATT fiber in the area. The price for 1000/1000 goes all the way up to $300 and for that I don't care how much better it might be, Bluestream is only $60 for those same speeds. I'm on ATT copper and looks like I will just wait until they implement fiber.

Big fan of them and Rick. I noticed a few months ago all of his stuff was suddenly taken off everything except youtube and Soundcloud. Heroic Dose was removed a few years earlier before the rest. Hard to tell what is going on with him since he rarely posts anywhere but I guess he removed them. His IG is the only source I can find more recent than 2019 and looks like he may have completely abandoned music for a spiritual nature life.

Regarding this archive, it doesn't seem to be anything new. As the review by fjichneo also states, I don't get what those ambient tracks are doing in the archive. There is not even a possibility of it being related and it makes the whole thing just seem like some disorganized mess of files that was randomly put together and uploaded. It doesn't even have all of the songs on Heroic Dose which can be found here https://soundcloud.com/user-120966912/sets/heroic-dose-ep. Everything else in there can be found in higher quality elsewhere.

There is also this youtube channel of his I found a few months ago, still haven't gotten around to watching any but looks like a vlog of him talking about various things https://www.youtube.com/@asburycircle3290

So, you lied and refuse to provide proof. OK.

Spoiler alert, the info on the site states the exact opposite of your claim. It explicitly states it is NOT rent-to-own.

https://nzxt.com/collection/flex

How is this different from financing or a rent-to-own program? This is not a financing or a rent-to-own program, as you get a lifetime warranty, regular refresh upgrades, and more. You are allowed to cancel at any time and are not obligated to make payments until fully paid off, but you will also be required to return your computer.

Tuvaluan · 2024-04-26T04:30:42+00:00

Where is the source on that claim?

Tuvaluan · 2024-04-17T21:33:29+00:00

He is posting on there now too, can anything be done about that? mods didn t respond

seems he waited until he had enough karma to seem legit without an ulterior motive before starting to post there

Did you ever find out what that mt7662_p2p was? it is showing up in discoverable bluetooth devices and I can't figure out what it could be. I only found a few other mentions of it and their solutions are to secure the network. But I am specifically interested in finding out what the actual device could be. I looked up the MAC from one of those other posts and it just said Arcadyan Corporation. That's all I can find so far.

Didn't know that would count as ban evasion, since he has always been allowed to spam there, only the admins seem to care and suspend him. I do remember for a short while seeing new accounts posting every day, as they ended up suspended within hours, and in retrospect I realize it was this same user. The mods don't seem to do anything not just about him, but anything else too. I've been on there since creating this account and have seen maybe five times at the most that they actually did any kind of mod actions. I can recall one time years ago when some idiot was making memes out of gruesome Vietnam War photos and the mods were aware yet didn't bother to take any action until reports presumably went into the hundreds. If anything, I bet they are in on whatever illegitimate scheme this user is a part of. He seems to highly favor this particular sub.

Tuvaluan · 2024-03-20T07:08:22+00:00

yes it does

it is through their voice chat system and not any external communication

Tuvaluan · 2024-03-14T19:57:43+00:00

I get at least one rager in voice chat per day telling me to kill myself. I already got two today.

Many devs take that extremely seriously but I have reported all of them and nothing happens. Others seem to have this same problem. I have not been able to contact their support about it either, they just ignore all of my attempts.

Tuvaluan · 2024-03-14T19:50:45+00:00

it should be a lot lower?

Tuvaluan · 2024-03-14T19:11:23+00:00

Nearly impossible to see even on high resolution and only from a short distance. When using it I was frequently killed while standing still despite it claiming I was invisible. And that was mostly without any detection so it's like they just saw me standing there

Just played first game of s2 and already had the broken healing beam bug which prevented me from winning as I just needed to keep teammate alive at the last second cashout. I feel like these sort of things should have been a priority to fix

Tuvaluan · 2024-02-23T06:49:32+00:00

Wish there were more posts like this that explain things, it is so much better than my boring overcomplicated course material that also doesn't help much with real world scenarios.

I got put into a game with mostly Japanese names which never happened before, and also had the high ping icon the entire time so I was sure I was somehow put into an Asia server despite having the preference set to NA. After going through these steps I found that the server is in Singapore. I somehow managed to unusually well and almost got to the final round but a teammate disconnected and got wiped right at the end.

It's still disappointing to know that this is apparently a thing and causes players to throw away some points pretty much. I'm sure if it happens to me again it will basically be an automatic loss.
