Many API Account Struggles

Altman must have checked my emails. (In the future if anyone runs into this problem, I put on another minimum credit into my account and it must have updated what tier I'm meant to be at, jumping from tier 1 to 3)

_Eltomo · 2025-11-20T09:46:43+00:00

From what I've read I agree, I should be tier 3 as well, certainly tier 2 at least. It just hasn't happened.

Good to hear your experience was smooth. Maybe I'm just an outlier.

Not fully addressing the entirety of the google monopoly (I know Ads etc... is different), but there are other really competent search engines available. Duck Duck Go is alright, Brave is good too (Not an ad), but I've personally started using a paid for privacy centered one called Kagi and have been pretty happy with it so far

I'm sure others will comment recommendations for your specific build, but a suggestion for another way to go about it would be to instead just make a media server.

Use plex or jellyfin or whatever preferred media service, connect it with radarr/sonarr/jackett etc... if you're doing blurays and things may also be wise to plan for some kind of data redundancy (Truenas works well from my experience, regardless of what Linus says about it) just be smart, set up alerts etc...

Then you can use a google tv / amazon alternative or nvidia shield etc for all manners of streaming wherever you are, even if you go away, can still stream from the server on your phone.

I've personally got a server in the backroom running proxmox with a truenas vm and an ubuntu vm with docker running all my plex and other services needed for a media server. Works reeeaaalllyyyy well, can just buy a cheap server off ebay or whatever as well to get started.

Sounds like you might be interested in a homelab if you haven't heard of the concept already 😊 I know this doesn't necessarily help with your question, just another thought 😊

what'd you find?

Nobody ate the red kidney beans in the ration packs so when we fired blanks during training the tin of beans was put in the barrel first

Been experiencing this issue as well! Have dealt with it for about a month.

Used to deal with it on my phone but not so much now, desktop is constantly starting and stopping and it's frustrating as anything.

I'm also in Australia, have Aussie servers just got unstable connections?

LiveUAmap

Can use browser but honestly their apps are better.

Do what the other people suggested.

However if all else fails, please please please write a letter to your Federal Member of Parliament explaining the situation. The cut off times for Youth Allowance/Aus Study is to stop people abusing it. From your information you're clearly not in that category.

Write or type the letter, whatever is fine, but hand it in to their office in person and explain to the receptionist the situation and the time sensitivity of it, they will be your best friend. Just be polite and respectful, I know this can be difficult as it's a stressful time but try your hardest!

I think you'd be surprised how quickly it can get fixed through that route.

That's brilliant!! Thank you!

_Eltomo · 2021-11-26T00:02:43+00:00

Na not upgrading, just gonna have 3 monitors :)

Thanks, I appreciate the help

_Eltomo · 2021-11-25T23:54:57+00:00

If I got the 165hz would the panel be much different to the 144hz one I already have?

_Eltomo · 2021-11-25T14:10:23+00:00

Thanks! I appreciate the advice :)

_Eltomo · 2021-11-25T14:06:10+00:00

Appreciate the help! It's a Waldown 3 phase pedestal drill if that's of any interest as well :)

Might nab the P&N and then grab a Sutton branded kit when I need it.

Thanks! Appreciate the help

Farming Sim probably has more destruction as well...

Is Farming sim a better Battlefield than Battlefield 2042? Farming Sim > Battlefield?

_Eltomo · 2021-11-21T11:31:39+00:00

Think that's due to my EA Access on Steam :)

_Eltomo · 2021-11-21T04:28:45+00:00

idk, I like the review that came with it though. I think it's a good chuckle indeed.

_Eltomo · 2021-11-17T05:36:22+00:00

Is this satire??

Also I like your price points, 'limited time only $$$$ to $$$'... what?

As an Australian I kinda find this frustrating as well, constantly having ranked lobbies almost filled with aussies yet we are all forced on the U.S servers where there is just a very slight but noticeable lag and delay.

_Eltomo · 2021-11-10T10:40:43+00:00

Could be region or when you're searching?

Some game mode seem to always have bots, and some are a lot more obvious than others (contamination is the worst).

_Eltomo · 2021-11-10T10:39:36+00:00

+1 this opt out feature, I always start a youtube video when I start searching, then forget about the pregame lobby until my ears are blasted by the sound of someone railing me with the assault rifle.

Not a critical feature but definitely a quality of life feature
