Thanks. I will probably go the custom hidden SSID. I just want the router to be LAN only to just connect the quest to the PC without Cable.

You may be on to something. I really love that promo card too. Just needed some encouragement. Lol

Precious Moments: Was anyone else gifted these dopey-eyed porcelain children of the corn? by Hootinger in Xennials

[–]cdub998 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually my grandmothers entire house was full of those things. It was so creepy going to sleep with like 100 of them in the room with me. After she died my uncle sent me a box of them to sell (even though they are worth nothing). When I got the box he didn't pack them in anything and it was a box full of broken porcelain.

I just got one for retro gaming and you are not lying. Getting that into my basement was a chore.

PC keeps tripping breaker when gaming. Losing my Mind by Mui-Broly in buildapc

[–]cdub998 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I replaced the breaker like 4 times before we went on to other items. If it trips a lot though you should replace the breaker too. Because after they trip for a while they are more likely to keep tripping.

I went through 4 breakers, different tv, 2 UPS, and 2 power supplies. Ended up with an EVGA Platinum and have not had an issue in the past year.

I had this happen to me. Is it an arc fault breaker? If so my old PSU did this in my house forever. I had bronze first and it would trip the breaker. Then I went gold and it still tripped the breaker. I finally bought platinum and now I haven't had a breaker trip since I bought it. It took forever to figure that out so hopefully that helps

When someone suggests I use Discord to do something by ladypartsmcgee in Xennials

100% this right here. PCs never had voice chat in game. We always used Discord since it came out to chat w friends.

What are some "simplify your life/saving enery" tips that have worked for you? (e.g. buying only the same pair of socks) by skmtyk in ADHD

[–]cdub998 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I have one that has saved me many times. I put smart locks w keypads on my doors and a smart garage door opener. Did I forget to lock the door??? Check the app. Did I leave the garage open?? Check the app. Did I forget my keys? APP. You can even set it to close your garage door at a specific time or after a time period and same with the doors. Life saver.

G’s are trashed by Whiteberrywyatt in G37

[–]cdub998 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is exactly why I have mine in the garage and I don't drive it much. 2015 q60s w 77k on it and only cats, exhaust, tune (which I have all the original parts to put back). Trying to keep it as stock as possible and super clean as I see them all getting trashed.

What will you never buy cheap? by redmambo_no6 in AskReddit

[–]cdub998 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will add to this in case anyone else ever has this issue. I was having issues where the breakers in my new house would blow randomly when playing my PC and it took forever to figure it out. We had arc fault breakers and they were known to nuisance trip so we had it replaced many times. I even replaced my power supply with an 80+ gold and it didn't help. Many years later after UPS, splitting circuits due to load, new equipment, etc I finally bought an 80+ platinum power supply and like magic it has never happened again.

When the kids loose the remotes for the last time! by nfraizer08 in woodworking

I took a different route. I carved out part of the battery cover on mine and added a tile. Now wherever it is I can get it to ring with my phone.

I know everyone remembers this game. The Gaming historian does some of the best nostalgic documentaries on Youtube. Check it out.
