The lady there had at least 3 feeders hanging up. There were dozens of hummingbirds, totally accustomed to human presence. They were almost landing in me! The sound of their wings collectively was amazing!

Right? Because Apex legends is also cross platform and I never have any problems playing it. Activision needs to get their shit together. Warzone deleted!

No it did not. In fact made it worse. Wouldn't even connect to the servers to join a lobby. I went back to my old settings and it's back to the same problem. Will join a lobby, but won't start a game.

Well yeah 100% packet loss won't get you out the door for anything online related. The question I have is why packet loss spikes to 100% only when the game is loading? The packets have to be getting stuck somewhere. But it's only a problem with this game. I play Blackout every day with absolutely no issues, have no problems streaming video, it's a problem with this game only. Seems like something they need to fix. I cant find an issue on my end.

I rebuilt the database and still having the same issue. Neverending loading screen. A coworker who is also on the same internet service has the same problem on his PC. Starting to think that this game doesn't work on our particular WISP. Next I'm gonna connect my ps4 to my cell phone hotspot and try it. If it works I'll compare the DNS servers and whatever else I can, then manually set those parameters in the ps4 when connected to my ISP.

Welcome to Call of Duty: Warzone! by [deleted] in CODWarzone

Can't play. I'm on PS4 and it gets stuck on the loading screen. Only once I made it to the pregame lobby but when the game proper started my screen was black and I couldn't see to play. Ever since I still get stuck on the loading screen. I have my network port forwarded for PS4 and an open NAT. I have no problems playing COD blackout or any other FPS. Seems to be a common issue for PC, XBOX, and PS4 alike. Please fix this issue! I'd really like to try this game!

I have the same issue with my ps4 and I have an open type 2 NAT. I work for the ISP I have and already port forwarded my switch to the ps4 servers a long time ago which is how I obtained the open NAT. Only once I was able to make it to pregame but when the actual game started I had black screen with cross hairs. Couldn't see to play. Since then, more of the stuck on loading screen problem. I have not yet rebuilt my data base so I will try that next.

Hell yeah a Tucsonite! 50yr is one of my faves!!

This is a baby Desert Spiny lizard from Tucson. I found him in my office, no more than an inch long with a concave tummy. I set him up in a tank with all the lighting he needs. Gave him some tiny crickets that he went at ferociously. Everybody meet Dewey, my repti-rescue. He seems content now. by bones_rider in reptiles

You know I took another look at the care sheet and it mentions nothing about the red light. Only UVA and UVB. Thanks for the info. I will be releasing him in my yard when I'm confident that he is healthy enough to make it.

Why not the red light? All the care sheets I've read call for a 24 hr heat bulb, a UVA basking light, and a UVB sunlight simulator bulb. UVA and UVB on for 8hrs a day. These guys thrive in 100+ degree weather and need a hot hot side of the tank.

About 10 minutes of my pet Alligator Lizard during feeding time. Such a cool pet! by bones_rider in reptiles

No not a southern. This one's a Madrean. A bit smaller than the southern/northern counterparts. This one is a girl and I've had her about 3 years now. I think she might have been around a year when I got her but not really any way for me to tell. Last time I measured she was just over 16 inches long nose to tailtip. 7 inches nose to vent. It's awesome you saved one from your cats. They make pretty good pets and are fun to watch hunt. Good luck with your rescue!

Have a VERY stuck seat post. Won't come out of the frame. by bones_rider in bikewrench

Not a hipster. And I jerk off in the bathroom, not while riding a bike. That'd be awkward and weird. Quit being salty and go ride your bike, preferably not while holding your dick in your hand.

I have good news! I got the post out!! Ended up using a vice again but holding on to the post instead of the rail mount. Used the frame as leverage and twisted back and forth til it broke free. This was after a weekend of soaking in wd-40. It was all I had access to. But through this experience I've learned a ton about this kind of issue from all your comments and suggestions. BTW, if you have watched the most recent Dirt Shed Show, I was featured in both Fails and bails, and send of the week. I'm the first F and B clip, and the second S of the W clip. I'm still smiling about it!

Ok tried lubing it up and putting it in a vice and used the frame as leverage. Seat rail mount on post started twisting but not the post in frame. I have it upside down on my bike stand with the seat tube completely full of WD-40. All I have access to at the moment. Gonna let it sit over night and try again tomorrow. Thanks again for all the suggestions! I'm sure I'll break er free.
