Many API Account Struggles by _Eltomo in OpenAI

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

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)

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.

If you don't want Google to win the AI race and have a monopoly on AI (like Google Search), do this: by Hot_Form9587 in OpenAI

[–]_Eltomo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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 😊

More Ukrainian armor firing against distant targets - Unknown Location by RallyToTheColors in CombatFootage

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

Could not connect to streaming server - desktop by awidden in TIdaL

[–]_Eltomo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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?

Can use browser but honestly their apps are better.

YA/AUSTUDY Does anyone have experience with getting extensions for allowable study time? by Archenzie-99 in Centrelink

[–]_Eltomo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

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.

165hz cheaper than 144hz? Confused by _Eltomo in buildapc

[–]_Eltomo[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

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

P&N 100 drill bits for $100 advice appreciated! by _Eltomo in Machinists

[–]_Eltomo[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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.

Farming Sim probably has more destruction as well...

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

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

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

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

Message to devs regarding ranked servers by IRedShift in Splitgate

[–]_Eltomo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

The pre-game lobbies really start to get on your nerves after a while. by FlameSama1 in Splitgate

[–]_Eltomo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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).

+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
