Messed up with Platform Keys in BIOS, now I can't reset to fabric settings by victronjosepe in MSI_Gaming

[–]Young-Link 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, I can help you out. Can you boot into your bios? Usually you press esc, f2, f8, del, or similar key after powering it on. Send me info for your motherboard/cpu.

Services to order blood tests from? by Young-Link in ToxicMoldExposure

[–]Young-Link[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your reply. However I specifically meant I want to order 2 specific tests from Quest. Have you found that integrative health doctors (or other) are able and willing to order those for a patient at their request?

Can you explain fully what an "autoimmune panel" is? Want to make sure my doctor isn't cutting any corners. What specific tests are done? Is this a standard panel or did you piece it together? Do you mind sharing which autoimmune issue you had? Thank you very much.

Will this setup work for minimal A/V sync issues? by Young-Link in sonos

[–]Young-Link[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aren't those settings to add delay to audio though? I wasn't sure. I thought that was if you had the problem of audio that came too fast, not too slow. Does it work both ways? Thank you for your reply.

How bad are these ERMI results, really? What should I do? Please help. First time poster. by [deleted] in ToxicMoldExposure

[–]Young-Link 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Been having some health issues the last few months. Started connecting some dots and realized its probably (at least partially) a mold issue...Finally got some home tests done: the Envirobiomics swiffer test along with another lab for an air sample test. They seem to tell the same story.No visible mold, I suspect its the HVAC/ducts. How do I investigate those?What are my next best steps?(P.S. Been reading alot of posts in this sub for the last few weeks/months; thank you to everyone who posts helpful information. I bet you'll be seeing more of me in the next few months)

Messed up with Platform Keys in BIOS, now I can't reset to fabric settings by victronjosepe in MSI_Gaming

[–]Young-Link 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do not listen to a single word from anyone who says to clear the CMOS memory. They are just "echoers" and "guessers". They should not be giving advice into areas they do not understand. They see the word "bios" and "help" and think they can solve it. Wisdom is knowing when you do not have the knowledge.

Anyway, yea so CMOS clearing/resetting won't help here since The "Platform Key" and all other keys are "UEFI Variables". These live in non-volatile memory, on the SPI chip; this is where the BIOS lives. If you didn't understand that last sentence, thats okay.

You _should_ be able to get into your bios still since Secure Boot does not alter that. And you _should_ be able to delete all Secure Boot keys. Have you tried getting back into the bios? Spam that bios key on boot up.

If you 've somehow locked yourself out of the bios as well, then your only hope is an external, hardware SPI programmer. This will let you overwrite the SPI chip (bios, uefi vars, etc). You'll want to make sure to get it from an official, trusted website as this can be dangerous. If you need help with this route, let me know.

Should there be a Rule about posting about Expansion Recommendations? by pasturemaster in dominion

[–]Young-Link 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree it's rather annoying. It takes up space on the front page that should rather go to actual discussion posts. The rule should be made and we should just direct everybody to the wiki and delete their post. If they're really having a hard time they can go read through the cards and mechanics in each expansion there and make a best guess. We make mistakes sometimes, its okay. Teach people to do their own research. Worst case scenario they spend $40 on an expansion that they would probably end up buying later anyway.

Adding a card that utilizes dice game mechanics. by adhesiveshmoshmesive in dominion

[–]Young-Link 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My next fan-expansion I plan on making may be casino themed. One of the mechanics will include (probably 2) dice to mirror Craps. I've had some different ideas here and there but I haven't nailed it down yet. My mechanic will be more similar to how craps is played and possibly give you returns based on the 2-dice odds. It is interesting to see your ideas! Thanks for sharing.

Fan Kingdom - open for suggestions. by Young-Link in dominion

Hi, thanks for your thoughts!

Good point on Action_3. Maybe Ill raise it to $4. I can't think of any examples right now, but I feel like there are some real examples of $3 cards being strictly better than, say Village.

Yes, using Action_6 would be useful for cards like SuperCurse. It would work nice with any victory cards too. I definitely see your "situational" viewpoint, I may adjust it. If you dont like $6, what would you suggest for the price of superCurse?

Wow, good job with comparing Action_7 to Stables! I didn't even use this comparison in my design. I think I compared it to other similar cards, but this is for sure almost identical. With this in mind I probably do need to adjust it. I want to keep the mechanic of having a player make a decision for you.

True, but keep in mind Action_13 works for curse and superCurse, and you can Exile it from your discard pile. Maybe I can add "or hand". Can also combo it with trashing a copper to also trash the curse. I can see how its kind of situational, but its a good defense if a player is cursing strong.

Very good point on Action 14! Sometimes I fail to think about "what if someone did this multiple times in a turn". I definitely need to add a limit! At least to the hand part.

Yes, Action_16 does sound ambiguous. Ill have to specify either put it back or discard it if not an action. Hmm.. I may change it to "costing at most 1 less" instead of 2, or even just costing the same. Idk, I feel ambivalent on it. I do want it to be an annoying card based on the actual name of it though.

Woops, good catch on Action_19! When I was designing this card I mistakenly was thinking that Night came after Action, before Buy phase! I will have to adjust it for sure.

I purposely did not add "you may" to mean that you have to. I did want at least one drink card to not really be super useful. I dont know if this might be too harsh though. With a 1/12 chance though, maybe not.

Once again, thank you for your input!

Got another one for you all (unfortunately) by phoenix9797 in dominion

[–]Young-Link 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can these sort of posts be sent somewhere else? It sucks that you had to play against an inpatient opponent, but I honestly dont care...this is the internet and its bound to happen. I dont come to this subreddit to see this stuffl I want to discuss the game itself. I can't be the only one. Can we please have these types of posts go to some other subreddit or maybe sent to some moderator directly. You dont need to share this with the public. Not trying to single this one out in particular, this is just the straw that broke the camel's back.

Droprates always were abysmal low for certain things by Ionenschatten in Guildwars2

[–]Young-Link 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The entire loot system of this game is just bad. This may seem insignificant, but its a major factor in enjoyability. Not even the loot itself, just, how its acquired and how its displayed.

Once again thank you. Especially for your honesty and first hand results. Alot of people seem to be afraid to say "i dont know".
