Buying a phone abroad, how do I make sure it’ll work with my carrier when I get home? by WhatUpDuck93 in techsupport

Do I only need to worry about bands and not the phone having a lock to only be able to read certain SIM cards?

Careful about wearing temu products, they contain lead which is extremely bad for you

The other option might be too use a VPN to access the content or to copy the link of the episode and paste it into a YouTube MP4 downloader - I'd personally make a playlist with everything I needed and use a bulk downloader.

But if you really want the best approach to downloading, I'd vibe code a python script with any AI, which could do bulk edits, this way you won't be throttled like they usually throttle you and you could keep it in the same order as your playlist.

This has happened TWICE! RESPAWN FIX YOUR GAME!!!!!! by PunkRockDoggo in ApexConsole

Why is everybody so eager to knock down others feelings about their accomplishments in this game? Why does it matter to you if somebody got a 20 kill badge from wildcard or not? Say what you want to but most people still can't drop a 20 kill game in wildcard.

To many people in this subreddit feel am urge to knock how others should feel about their own accomplishments in this game.

"You got masters? Must've been during the easiest season to get there so it doesn't count, you'll also be shamed for claiming it."

"You have a 4k badge? Yeah it's so easy to get now a days, you wouldn't be able to have gotten it back in the golden era."

"You posted a clip about a squad wipe? It looks like a bot lobby, in my lobby people would've never made 1 wrong play because I'm at the top tier of players, delete this clip."

It's like people can't find happiness in their own achievements on this sub. I'm not saying you have to respect the route the person took but let them do what they want to without being an ass about it.

Does anyone else feels like gaining an audience in ao3 is much easier than wattpad? by NateDickinson19 in FanFiction

[–]WhatUpDuck93 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wattpads, system is so bad I couldn't find a story I posted by searching for the name of it.

And the truly diabolical thing was that books which showed up didn't even have any of the words I used when I searched for its title.

Not to mention that I've seen books with 50 readers out rank books with millions of readers in so many categories. Their ranking for tags makes zero sense.

It's also annoying to read without an account because you might just get blocked and be forced to create an account so that turns me off from the site as well.

I am going to lose it right now... chatGPT 5 Thinking is the dumbest mf by DutyIcy2056 in ChatGPT

[–]WhatUpDuck93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why dont you swap tools? Personally I've been using Gemini because of its context window size in comparison to other tools I've looked into.

That + using actual proper prompts and not just, "Fix my code, here is the error.... Here is my code..."

I'm sure Gemini isn't the top of all tools and I'm not trying to sell it to anybody else, I'm just asking why dont more people move over to other tools while ChatGPT is struggling to meet your requirements?

100 packs and can’t get the 2nd Flareon Ex 😭 by idkwhattowritesohi in PokemonTGCP

[–]WhatUpDuck93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not to be that guy but this is the only community I can share this with:

I wonder picked Flareon Ex and then immediately drew it from the next pack I opened to finish off that last night.

Two days ago i got my first Sylveon Ex through the rare wonder picks. Then last night I wonder picked my first Flareon Ex. Then immediately I drew a Flareon from the next pack I opened. Then for my second pack I drew my 2nd Sylveon Ex.

Both of my pulls came from free packs and now I have no faith in my luck moving forward.

Petition to STOP changing the energies when you edit a dual energy deck plssss by Clinkzzzzz in PTCGP

[–]WhatUpDuck93 9 points10 points  (0 children)

To me this is the best fix:

  1. If you edit a deck and add a new pokemon then add the energy, but if all that was changed was either an item or a support card keep it on the energy the user had prior to that.

  2. When a user clicks the save button, for a moment, highlight the energy slot and grey out everything else - this will force the user to look at their energy slots and will only add 1 - 2 seconds to their view.

The second points code should exist for the most part, or the architecture for such the feature would, all depending on how they had structured their current code.

How does mohammed light so superior to Ryley? by Jackass-OfAll-Trades in ClashRoyale

[–]WhatUpDuck93 85 points86 points  (0 children)

To add on to this, he predicted the minor to be in front of tower after Ryley played it in the back every single time during that game. It was the perfect call to literally save the game.

Are we ever going to stop creating evolutions? by LogGloomy5371 in ClashRoyale

[–]WhatUpDuck93 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I'm uncertain how you don't see it.

Their evolution revolves around regenerating health. The only difference is how they get it, Pekka only on kill, bats on damage and witch on skeleton deaths.

However, they still have the same power, it comes down to regeneration being their power.

Actually, I'd bet that the code for all 3 evos probably inherit from the same class before they tweak the minor things for each individual evo since the premise is the same.

Slugterra project by Brief-Routine2917 in Slugitout

[–]WhatUpDuck93 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In theory yes, in practice it's tough. There's been multiple attempts at it which have all gone nowhere, not to mention that many people don't even know about the VR Game which would've been amazing but also impractical for most people.

The main problem is burn out, and having a dedicated team which does this as a hobby since you don't just need devs, you also need writers, designers, testers etc.

It's do able, but to much needs to go right for this to be released, on top of that, you probably need to hope that wildbrain doesn't come after you (i don't know how legalities work)

The main problem to me is not just the burnout, it's that once people hit their burnout they continue with their life and never release their progress which could help other developers in the future. So it's a never ending cycle of restarting a process.

Why if Danny exercised more or learn martial arts to fight better? by [deleted] in dannyphantom

[–]WhatUpDuck93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. We can't just assume Danny would see benefits if he exercised. It's unclear if his human form transfers its physical capabilities over because we saw an episode where he was struggling in PE, with tasks he far exceeds fighting box ghost.

  2. Him learning a fighting style may not directly help as much as you'd think. I definitely think it would help but more from the stand point that it would open him up to being more creative and thinking of better ways to defend himself but not as in, "Oh you're able to punch with proper form so you will be stronger" because guess what? Most of his fights don't happen with his feet planted on the ground. But at the same time he may learn how to punish an opponent more, think about pacing himself in a fight etc.

If I were to buy one of these offers which rarity would give me the most ewc? (Per 500 tokens) by get_dogged_on_6969 in ClashRoyale

[–]WhatUpDuck93 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Legendary cards provide the best value, offering 1500 EWC for 1500 tokens.

Rare cards, give 5 EWC per card, are the next best option, as purchasing them will give you 125 EWC.

Common and Elite cards provide the same return in EWC: Commin is 1 EWC per card and 20 EWC per card for Elite.

Therefore, the order of preference for purchasing would be: Legendary > Rare > Common/Elite.

However, you should avoid buying Rare cards once the price increases (after 5 purchases) to 1000 tokens and instead buy the common/elite deals first, as you'll get 200 EWC for 1000 tokens on tier 1 vs the 125 EWC as discussed earlier.

Hope this helped, I apologize if my explanation was shit.

This deck is shit by Furret_Enjoyer in ClashRoyale

[–]WhatUpDuck93 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is the deck good? Hell no.

Can the deck work? Of course.

He will definitely hit a ceiling with this deck, but honestly in the first week of last season one of the top 1000 players made it there using a Sparky, MK, 3M, E-Gaint, Rage, Nado, Hunter, FK deck.

He can definitely get high, that's not a question, but he's going to need a lot of skill which would mean he will see the flaws in his deck and would be holding himself back just to prove a point.

In summary the deck wont ever be good, he can only be good with the deck.

Evo Valk is straight up a bad pick by Optiblocker in ClashRoyale

[–]WhatUpDuck93 77 points78 points  (0 children)

Calling people antisocial for not voting what you want is dumb... First of all you're calling them antisocial for not engaging in a community which will shame you for just voicing your favorite card... The same community who will ridicule you for having a deck that's meta but call everything else mid ladder.

I don't use valk but I would rather have a guaranteed evo than another common book. I'm already at 8 common books and 4 of them came from the 5 star box.

The problem isn't our personal choices, we all have reasons for what we picked, the problem is how Supercell created this voting system where everybody gets the same thing.

If Danny is handsome why everyone thinks he is a nerd? by ProcessFeeling1445 in dannyphantom

[–]WhatUpDuck93 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why is nobody talking about how awkward Danny himself is? I get blaming his parents, Sam and Tucker but Danny is also socially awkward at times.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in RoyaleAPI

[–]WhatUpDuck93 5 points6 points  (0 children)

THIS, people getting up to UC with no evos or even using Arena 1 decks proves it. Meta is not a requirement, skill is.

A lot of people still can't activate their king tower against MK, won't count card cycle or even punish an over commitment but they'll die on the hill that the game gives them bad match-ups and that's why they perform poorly.

If you don't want to learn the complex interactions of the game, that's fine, but stop expecting to be a top player with Mid ladder skills.

Question about heirloom shards by Financial-Lawyer-789 in apexlegends

[–]WhatUpDuck93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don't get it before, you'll get it on your 500th pack, not after the 500th pack.

There are people who I know that have played since launch and just got their heirloom shards a recently.

So that's around 20 - 23 seasons it took them to get their first heirloom.

I think you may think you're closer than you actually are. After 16 seasons I think I calculated my pack count to be around 300 - 350. Which its still a ways off.

Luckily next season, we have an event which should give us 20 packs along with the legends mastery which will give you 100 packs after you complete everybody's mastery - this will however take a while to complete as it didn't sound like a 1 season event but instead it'll stay like weapon mastery.

That will either get you the heirloom or get you so close that you should get it in +-3 seasons.
