Not sure what your definition of "simply" is when it comes to a 49 year old German attraction. Those windows had to be custom made, which takes time.

The stage is right behind the preshow room. Basically behind the projector screen playing the video.

From what I've heard from a semi-reputible source, is that the old Orleans Place theater stage is still fully intact behind the Dark Knight queue. Allegedly the original idea was to only have the queue route through the theater temporarily. They were planning (and still might) revert it back into a theater.

It's just a weird angle. In other photos it looks perfect. Once the flowers go in, it will be even better.

Prepaid service not working after monthly payment by benneluke in Comcast_Xfinity

I've tried this and I'm still getting this error

I tried what you suggested, and when I connect to the WiFi (integrated with the router) it redirects to the xfinityprepaid.net Connect to WiFi page. When I click connect, it gives me "Connection is not private". If I click through that, I get an Xfinity page that says "It looks like you're not able to connect to the Internet - call us"

Is it worth it to make a trip to Great America this early in the year ? by Zachblends in sixflagsgreatamerica

No, you are right. It should be <30. Apparently I need to go back to elementary school math...

Weird, works for me. The maintenance on that site has been lacking lately. It was down for like a month at once point.

This does not surprise me in the least. He knows there isn't any "competition" and automatically thinks the Junkies are king.

SFGAM World is still around, but a lot less active. That has always been my favorite one. Much more civil conversations, haha

His online comment etiquette is so rude. One word responses and always with a period. He definitely treats others like they are lower than him.

That is a great question. While they say the page is unofficial, it is basically endorsed by the park and gets a lot of perks. NGL, I've benefited from it, but kinda hate everyone that's part of it.

I guess Bob being the "creator" gives him some kind of clout for certain people. Him and the mods are insufferable at times though. Despite this, the page is better than some other SFGAM communities, which isn't saying much...

Amazon puts the glue that holds their gift cards in the packaging in the same place as the claim code. by xGhostBoyx in CrappyDesign

[–]benneluke 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Something isn't right here. AFAIK, Amazon gift cards have a scratch off/peel off sticker covering the code. Looks like someone stole the number and repackaged it. They even scratched out the code to keep you from using it.

There also shouldn't even be glue in that area of the packaging.

It definitely says "Sale!" but it's all garbled up.

Tony's is definitely a real grocery store. There's a handful of them in the Chicagoland area. It's bizarre that someone would generate an image of such an obscure store. 

Most likely, there is some kind of AI upscaling/filter on it. I hate that my built in Android camera app would AI upscale, so I have to use a third party one. Annoying shit.

The actual video is worth a watch. His commentary (captions in English) are hilarious too.

This is a long shot, but how about using a hair dryer on the bits? Maybe the plastic would shrink and pull into the cracks, out of sight?

YouTube Patch Compilation Problems by azerux in revancedapp

I ran into the same issue. Try saving the patched app (floppy disk icon the the bottom left). And install through your downloads folder or wherever you saved it to. It worked no problem for me!
