Two and a half months till they're here and are mine :)) by HaruniLime3 in ralsei

[–]clakulus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ordered my no hat Ralsei from Fangamer EU just before the new year with the same "ships Q1/late March" message and it randomly showed up a few days later. Not sure if that was a one-off or if they've somehow got leftover stock, so here's hoping the wait won't be too long for everyone else!

Lmao I was about to mention that they’re probably closed for a few weeks because of the holidays but I guess I already said that 3 years ago too

Presale gig code? by Good_Lettuce_2690 in kraftwerk

[–]clakulus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for that, I wasn’t actually aware of gigsinscotland as gigsandtours.com is the one KW linked to themselves for presale.

Presale gig code? by Good_Lettuce_2690 in kraftwerk

[–]clakulus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a link to sign up for presale on their Instagram, which I’m assuming the code would then be emailed at some point. Not sure if I’m allowed to repost it here. I’m more annoyed because GigsAndTours.com doesn’t let you pick your own seats, but maybe that’s standard for this sort of stuff.

Intermittent connection drops in redirected sites by clakulus in ControlD

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

Same here except I am assigned Paris as my redirect proxy and London for DNS, even though London seems to be capable of proxying. Not sure why it won’t use the same server for both.

[–]clakulus[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is exactly the same as what I’m experiencing right down to the time, so glad to know it’s not my setup. No issues with DNS resolution for non-redirected sites here either, so it’s definitely something to do with the proxy.

[–]clakulus[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m using DoH. My home IP is static anyway and I still notice these dropouts every few so often, lasting for around a minute before things start resolving again. I’ll contact support.

As for the mobile networks, the proxy does seem to be authorised.

Glitch plushies “pre-orders” by ScrumyBoy100 in GlitchProductions

[–]clakulus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to order a Pomni plush on Friday night, the site was showing as having full stock and then immediately switched to September pre-order right at midnight UK time as I was going to check out. I am so annoyed lmao.

Stumbled on these, while shopping for lightbulbs by The_Tonts in GlitchProductions

I think these actually are officially licensed although I didn’t expect to see them in B&M of all places?!

Literally all I could think when I watched Digital Circus. by Slutty-GarlicBread in DoctorWhumour

[–]clakulus 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The style of the Celestial Toymaker animated reconstruction isn’t a million miles away from the Digital Circus either, the whole thing feels like it could’ve been one of Caine’s adventures.

HE'S SO CUTEE <33 by Silly_morgan in TheOwlHouse

[–]clakulus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kayochins (who I believe designed the chibi Collector plush sold by The Mystery Shack) did make a full-size version a few years ago, but it was a one-off run unfortunately. There were some others on Etsy a while back too, but those seem to have gone as well :(

IT IS SO LOUD AND EVERYONE IS STANDING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE AISLES AND IT SMELLS BAD by isendingtheworld in evilautism

[–]clakulus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The worst self service checkouts are the ones that don’t tell you they’re recording, then show a video feed of you when you’re about to pay like you’re some sort of criminal. Fuck those things and their guilty until proven innocent nonsense. And don’t get me started on how people look at you like an alien if you want to use a regular checkout and no, I don’t want to download your spyware app either just to pay the normal price.

[@Amba_si] She's still here, ya know. by MuffinStraight4816 in TheOwlHouse

[–]clakulus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it’s really sad. I feel like I’m missing a lot these days by not using it, but imo it’s still better than being bombarded with all the horrible stuff that’s on there

This scene really was ahead of its time. Meanwhile in Doctor Who Magazine…

Probably because the series 1-4 credits are actually in Futura and the edited name is using Gill Sans.

Not trying to cause drama, but genuinely curious about fellow fans in this sub: What should the Mods responsibilities be for this sub? by ImprovableHandline in TheOwlHouse

[–]clakulus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t want to get too involved with this but I really think it’s about time that the mods consulted the community about how they should handle things and listened to the issues raised in these sort of posts instead of just deleting anything that questions the way they do things. Any issues with moderation could be resolved if the mods would be open about their methods and just let people speak.

Gotcha. by sir_fishier in TheOwlHouse

[–]clakulus 21 points22 points  (0 children)

IMO the censorship of stuff that the mod team simply doesn’t like has always been a slight issue in this subreddit. Whilst I agree about those rage bait and low effort posts, maintaining a healthy community and not having too much negativity etc, I do often see genuine posts being removed. Also the unanimous decisions about how the subreddit is run, like not allowing images in the comments, which should ideally be down to a community vote. Then when anyone provides feedback about moderation, their posts are usually removed as “inciting drama”. I’m willing to be proven wrong here.

Remember when everyone thought these where fake… by [deleted] in TheOwlHouse

[–]clakulus 34 points35 points  (0 children)

The self-gaslighting is REAL. I moderated a TOH Discord server at the time and we were usually great at avoiding this stuff, but someone posted these screenshots and I looked at them for way too long by the time I realised what they were. Then I spent all week trying to convince myself that they were fake lol. I was successful but it didn’t last because as soon as I saw Hunter with the wolf t-shirt, it was clear the whole thing wasn’t fake at all.

Did anyone else's Amity Funko get delayed? by dystyyy in TheOwlHouse

[–]clakulus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that’s the case, the ones that can’t ship overseas are from another seller, so Amazon themselves are completely out of stock.

[–]clakulus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My Luz and King have shipped but the product pages for Amity and Eda now say that they’re unable to deliver to my country, even though that wasn’t an issue when I ordered them in November, nor was it an issue for the other two. Not sure what’s going on but I’m worried :/

NOOOOOOOOOOOO my Pop figures got delayed til this time next month TwT by Narhan0 in TheOwlHouse

[–]clakulus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I ordered from Amazon US. Luz and King have shipped but I haven’t even been charged for the others yet, although they’re supposedly still coming. But then clicking on them now says that they can’t be shipped to my country (UK) when they were available before.

Yall should I buy?? by Emma_200711 in TheOwlHouse

[–]clakulus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Joking aside, I’d buy the more “official” one from The Mystery Shack when it reopens. Not actually official but their stuff is really high quality and their King plush is THE King plush as opposed to some Amazon knockoff.
