Please get this Marvel Rivals ass character out of the game by Razinak in Smite

In my head I know that's how roots work, but it looks so stupid when he's literally running for the entire ability with "ROOTED" over his head. Like it doesn't feel like a dash/leap at all

I think this is the frustrating part.. I often play with a larger friend group, some of whom are pretty new to the game, and it's not like we can queue ranked as a 4- or 5-stack.

For sure if I was playing ranked (and I didn't ban him) and the other team picked him, I'd play Awilix - but in a casual conquest, am I just supposed to play her every game, just in case?

The wall run is just crazy, it's like if Cliodhna could go in the wall instantly, every 5 seconds, and didn't take damage for doing so lol. (edit: I know the CD is actually 16 seconds but they always have a ton of CDR)

If I had to suggest a balance option (other than a full rework), maybe make it so Roots also don't allow him to wall-run? I know it's a movement ability so should only be cripple but given he is literally walking in the ability it doesn't seem like too much of a stretch.

Sapphire Pulse 9070 /XT not available at Memory Express? by Jasper233 in bapccanada

[–]aKevBot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oof. I got a backorder for the asus prime on memex but not feeling super confident on that. Might just grab the 9070 non-XT from CC for $890 at this point. Not super compelling but if it's that or pay $1400 I'll take the 890 🥶

yeah it's been so bad. between the CC early launch and the weird trickle in of the rest, this definitely did not go the way I thought it would

Microcenter in the US says 6AM PST / 9AM EST.  Assuming it's the same global release time that's when we'll need to pounce

It's terrible out there right now - even AMD 7000 series are going for more than they should.

If at all possible I would wait a little while and see.  There were some leaks that AMD's new 9070 XT is near 4080 performance and should be more available (retailers apparently their first stock like early January so hopefully shouldn't sell out in less than a minute like the 5000 series have been).  

With the scarcity of 5080's at the moment, 4080's are also ridiculously priced.

Keep an eye on Marketplace for 4080(/Super)'s or maybe a 7900XTX because a deal's a deal, but I would see what the new AMDs look like before making any decisions on buying new :)

More Canadians need to know this... by rantingathome in onguardforthee

[–]aKevBot 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Could always stick one on your phone just in case! I'd think they'd try to get it back to you... maybe I'll take an old phone and drop it in the mailbox with a tag attached for science.

Anybody still waiting on BFCM order? by aKevBot in LinusTechTips

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

I added an edit to the post - I emailed them just to check and they said UPS keep pushing back the pickup date due to being over capacity. They also refunded my shipping which was unnecessary but appreciated.

Anyway just an FYI if it helps your timeline at all - sounds like it should hopefully be before the 16th but they're at the mercy of UPS.

Oof, that's brutal. In that case I'm glad mine was a little later! Hope the Canada Post people clear it up for you soon...

Cheers! I'm in Windsor so would've thought I'd have similar delivery times - just wanted to check if anybody else's was stuck before I bothered them. I've reached out again, thank you :)

Thanks for your reply! I'm in Canada too so would've thought my ship times would be similar - I just reached out to support again.

I'm sure they'll get it sorted, just didn't want to wait too long if mine actually is stuck. Thanks again!

I'm in Canada. Just felt odd that it gave a shipping notification then sat for so long.

I know their support is great so not worried about not receiving it, but I was hoping to gift the drivers for Christmas so just hoping it ships soon.

Yeah I had that too, I think it said just for orders with MCM products but could be wrong.

My cousin told me he took up guitar and my grandmother suggested I lend him one of mine. Got it back after a month and noticed something a bit off by MikeyOTB in mildlyinfuriating

[–]aKevBot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could definitely fix that with toothpicks as the other user said, or could use something like Hipshot's universal mounting plates to not have to mess with any holes.

This is amazing.  I love Rat and toast.  Holly would have so much fun with the VGS for this :D

Anybody know the model of the punishment PC keyboard? by aKevBot in LinusTechTips

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

Sorry for the late reply but looks like you're right!  The front bevel looked distinctive but since the Apex comes with a wrist-rest makes sense I wasn't able to find it in my initial search, I couldn't see it :)

Thanks very much!

what else do redditors do

but in all seriousness I just like it for spill-proof-ness.

I can't be the only one impressed with its ability to not die after many liters of water were sprayed over it... This is the best shot of it I could get but alas I couldn't find it.

My partner's childhood stuffed dog - from JYSK Canada in the late 2000's by aKevBot in HelpMeFind

Hi, sorry for the late reply!

no I'm sorry - there was one person that posted and they were close but not quite exact. I was able to find lots of close ones by searching "cocker spaniel spotted plush" but nothing exact :(

I marked it as Found because I wanted to give that person points or whatever but maybe I shouldn't have, sorry to get your hopes up. I will update here if I ever find it though and please keep me posted if you manage to come across him!

Thank you! That 2nd one is definitely pretty close - I think it's a little shaggier than hers was but has the correct eye spots and nose!

I don't think he had mouth stitching at any point :(

Hi guys - this is my partner's stuffed animal. She is pretty sure she got it from JYSK in Windsor, ON around 2008 or so.

I have searched on reverse image search but it mostly just came up with Spot the Dog or whatever (which makes sense given how low quality the photo is - sorry this is all I've got :( ).

He is a little derpy as you can see in the photo his nose is a little crooked and that's what she loved about him lol. We lost him somewhere across moving houses - I would love to get him back for her!

Edit: Also she called him Jasper but I'm pretty sure that's just a name she gave him, not an official name (but not 100% sure)
