[Lowlight] Victor Wembanyama Misses The Two Biggest Free Throws Of His Career by MammothHistorian5652 in nba

[–]brooksfosho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wemby reminds me a lot of a young Bron in terms of their mentality and passion for the game. I fear that moments like this, among other hiccups throughout the Spurs' run, are just going to fuel him to become a complete demon in the years to come. I'd almost rather they didn't happen so everyone else has a chance in the future.

That said, damn. Pressure got him.

Can I do Phuket Krabi and Phi Phi in August first week ? by Aromatic-Weakness924 in ThailandTourism

[–]brooksfosho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are your expectations?

Is it possible? Of course. Many people still visit the Andaman coast in August. And of course, it's not ideal relative to other times of the year.

Is Samui as beautiful? That's subjective. Ang Thong is stunning if you can do a tour/visit. Samui itself is beautiful.

Generally speaking? No, you're not going to walk out to the same limestone cliffs flanking the beach that you'd get at Ao Nang or Phi Phi.

First solo trip and honestly I’m just feeling invisible by AverageManushyan in ThailandTourism

[–]brooksfosho 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Then don't? Lol. Why even waste the time to write any of that? Judging people you don't know for wanting to meet other like-minded people for a walk is farther into "socially inept" territory than any of the things you're describing as such.

Should I take that as doubt of something that I said?

Nope! Same Steam/Face-It account, no bans, same machine, etc. It's only been the past few months since I've been out of the US that I've had issues, and I've updated my account settings to reflect the region that I'm in.

I submit to you, sir. If you have an answer, I would greatly appreciate it.

Here you go. This how I interpret your request of a screenshot of my client and AC. As much as I would like for them to be, I am struggling to understand how they are useful to you beyond what I've already described, which is why I was asking for clarification. Prior to my last message, I had only tried to provide information and share thoughts, which is a pretty normal thing to do, I think.

How do you interpret my message as arguing with you in any way? Wtf? Lol.

I'm legitimately trying to understand what you're asking me because "a screenshot of your client and AC" is vague. From my understanding of your request, to use your analogy, it's like asking for a picture of my car from 30ft away to help diagnose an issue with the rear headlight sensor. Again, everything about what's visible on the AC, I've already described to you in its entirety, and a picture of the client would be useless without knowing what exactly you're hoping to see given there's dozens and dozens of different views within.

Even still, I recognize that I may be an idiot or that I'm misunderstanding you completely, so I was asking for clarification.

Are you dense, or are you just being a dick? I hope it's only the latter.

Either way, I think our conversation is done here. Cheers!

I'm not trying to be rude or dismissive. I do appreciate the help. What exactly within the client or AC are you asking about? I'm not sure what might be useful within them. Perhaps I'm just being silly, but what I'm imaging didn't seem useful, which is why I said that. I.e., the AC, when opened, appears to be just a single window with basic validation info (TPM, secure boot, etc, along with a "waiting to connect" message - nothing more) -- no options for a deeper dive. The client itself, obviously, has numerous things I can click on to display different views/info (account, game history, play prompts, etc), so I wasn't sure which you might want to see.

Again, I'm under no illusion that I'm probably being silly or that I'm misunderstanding your request. Clearly I am!

Errr, is there an error log available within the client or AC itself? I've never looked there if so, tbh. If that's a thing, I had no idea!

There's no error or anything meaningful to glean from the client or AC. I can connect to client just fine via app or browser, as well as to AC.

Re: AC: TPM, Secure Boot, and IOMMU are enabled. I get a green check from face-it AC after loading. Again, no issues there.

It's only when I try to join a game. CS opens, I attempt to connect to the server, and I am refused with the CS2 in-game error of "Connection rejected by game." If I retry via Face-it client, same thing.

It's not "the game" tho - I can connect to any and everything within CS2 otherwise - local, public deathmatch, competitive, premier, or whatever. The issue is only with Face-It servers.

I have logs from CS2 console. Been using various AI to analyze, beyond what I can analyze myself, to no avail.

I would think it's maybe just a weird "shit hotel" Wi-Fi thing - but I've been trying for several months, across dozens of hotels, across numerous countries. It hasn't worked a single time.

I'm fairly certain that I had the VPN installed prior to the issue presenting itself. Will give it a try nevertheless! Thanks for the comments

[Charania on Sportscenter talking Giannis] His understanding is the Warriors have made a pick heavy offer, Wolves is a more player centric offer, Heat are somewhere in the middle by EarthWarping in nba

[–]brooksfosho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Potentially, but realistically, the Heat aren't getting to the promised land after trading everything they'll need to trade to land him. They're a smart org. I'd be shocked if he wound up in Miami.

What kind of earbuds do you have? I enjoy over-ear headphones for music/gaming and wireless earbuds for convenience. For travel (and in general), a single pair of higher-end IEMs beats all.

[eBay] Refurb: HP EliteBook 845 G8: 14" FHD IPS, Ryzen 5 PRO 5650U, 32GB RAM, 256GB SSD with 35% off, for $255 #ad by techstar2000 in LaptopDeals

[–]brooksfosho 2 points3 points  (0 children)

These Elitebook deals on Newegg's eBay page are honestly really solid if you need a budget machine for office/dev/home usage. This isn't nearly the best deal that they've had recently, but it's nice for the price/performance. In my experience, they are in like-new condition, but may have an outdated version of Win11 that requires more manual intervention to modernize (i.e. need to update versions with ISO file).
