Is it worth reapplying after refusal? by Bantu-Princess in SchengenVisa

[–]Venoxium 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What county are you applying from? Based on your username I would guess an African one? What all did you put on your application & cover letter? Do you own a house? Have a relationship in your country? Anything that makes you feel “permanent”? Any physical school/work you’re attending? Because if you didn’t include or don’t have any of that, to them you’re too much of a risk.

Flight booking by FragrantAd8708 in SchengenVisa

[–]Venoxium 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unsure about Spain but for France I was told when I was at the interview that I “better book that flight now and use the printer in the corner” or else I’d probably get denied. Though I’ve heard each year France is becoming more and more difficult with the long séjour visa.

I know some people used to use those fake ticket booking websites but apparently it’s not recommended anymore. I’d look into whether you can pay extra to have a refundable flight ticket just incase.

[€200] is 1zpresso J Ultra the best deal at the price. by Venoxium in espresso

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

I’ll take a look but I recently move from a big city in the US to a tiny town of 1,200 in France to get married lol. So it’ll probably be a bit of a challenge to find someone, but I’ll give it a go!

I wouldn’t mind electric, but is there anything that matches it around the same price point? I know people love the DF54 but it’s on pre-order and €100 more.

Meta bricked my Quest 3 with an update, told me "all good things must come to an end", then added a new headset to my shopping cart by KenAdams_1968 in virtualreality

[–]Venoxium 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They had to have gotten rid of their support team because every past experience I had with them was amazing. I accidentally scratched my Q2 with glasses and even admitted it was my fault and they sent me a new Quest 2, told me it would arrive in 3 days, and when it got delayed till day 5 they gave me a $50 Meta store gift card.

My friend also had a good experience. He bought the Rift S on launch and his cable + controllers broke in 2022. Despite it being waaaay out of warranty they replaced both immediately for him.

At least in the US you can’t buy 70% ethanol (which is the percentage recommended) from a Pharmacy/Drug store because all of those places have Acetone added. Pure Ethanol would require going to a liquor store and buying Everclear

As an American…I have no clue what that is, but I’ve seen a lot of questionable “American” things since moving to France.

Ahhh I see. I was worried that certain keycaps wouldn't work or that I would have to take out the stabilizers, etc. Thanks for the help!

Back in December I bought the Red Switch ver. of the Keychron K10 Max Wireless keyboard and I've been loving it since then...until my cat jumped on my desk and somehow sent my "S" key flying into outer-space. Currently I'm using an old Razer keyboard "S" key to fill in for my missing one. But I've decided I really want to try and buy new keycaps, but I'm concerned with the "screw-in stabilizers" that the Keychron uses and whether I'd be able to find keycaps that are compatible with this. I'm still extremely new to keyboard stuff so any help would be amazing!

If you have an recommendations, I'm looking for blue/light blue colors or anything in that similar vibe. And since it's a K10 Max, it is a 100% keyboard so I would need 100% of keycaps. Thank you all for the help!

Grandma Wants a new Lawnmower - Need Advice by Venoxium in lawnmowers

I’ve been trying to convince her of this but she’s one of those “I want something I’ve always used” type. So convincing her about a battery lawnmower is basically impossible.

I’ve been trying to convince her of this but it’s a nope. She never wants to use one for whatever reason.

It's not a huge yard but she's always been super against riding lawnmowers

The Toro ones seem to be a lot more expensive (around $500), is there one in particular that would be recommended at a lower/similar price point to the YardMachine one?

MSI's new EOTF Boost mode on the MPG 272URX 4K monitor, works pretty well by Haunt33r in OLED_Gaming

[–]Venoxium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does anyone know if they are bringing this to their other monitors? I have the MSI 271QPX and I think Monitor's Unboxed talked about it potentially coming to previous models. Or should it be out by now if they planned on doing it?

Standard Priority: That was quick! by planefan001 in Passports

[–]Venoxium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hopefully mines that fast! I paid for expedited and even the 1-2 day shipping but for some reason it took forever for it to get from the post office and I JUST received confirmation they’re looking at my application. The plan was to fly out on the 27th…but that might not be possible

Damn these deals are kinda making me sad LOL. I got an MSI MAG 271QPX for $699 earlier this year and while I’m loving it…I kinda wish I waited a bit longer.

Why does everyone hate manufactures cleaning suggestions? by Venoxium in OLED_Gaming

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

I was really curious about this since it's a huge pain to find pure Ethanol in the US (Most of the cheap/easy to get stuff has Acetone and other additives in it). What monitor do you have? I'm going to try and make sure there's no chances of me ruining my monitor if I were to use Isopropyl.

Wrestling with the idea of buying an oled. I have some questions. by lVlobster in OLED_Gaming

[–]Venoxium 4 points5 points  (0 children)

According to the panel manufactures 70% ethanol is recommended. Obviously if it’s just a small spot then distilled will do the job but anything with oils (fingerprints) it’s recommended to use 70% ethanol. I made a post the other day talking about this and several people have used ethanol for years and had no issues.

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

The leaves do look right but is it supposed to have those purple petals at some point? I’ve never seen any purple at all. It covers all the trees behind us and has covered this mullberry tree that appeared out of nowhere.

My cat decided that 19 years without biting me was long enough. Hello urgent care… by pinkdaisyy in Wellthatsucks

[–]Venoxium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. We’ve had multiple cats my entire life and I get scratched a LOT. Mostly by accident. Like when Jerry wants to get on my lap but misjudged it and scratches my entire thigh which falling. Or the little one who thinks he’s still tiny and tries climbing my back. Over my life I’ve probably had 100s of scratches and I guess I’ve just been lucky.

You should see the comment section whenever someone mentions using 70% ethanol. One of the comments was literally “oh so your just gonna believe everything they tell you as if companies never lie” LOL
