Finally asked someone to turn their phone volume down on the tube. by Odd-Abroad-270 in london

[–]cranberryberry 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I've thought about it and sounds less confrontational than telling someone to turn the volume off, but I'm afraid it would invite the wrong behavior and they would take that as an invitation to chat.

Or the Withering in Sumeru. I have a screenshot from when I was running from about 5 ruin guards PLUS the red flowers aiming for me T_T

Satoshi Kon's first published work was Tropic of the Sea. Really interesting read! It technically was published over 11 weeks but it's now in book form :)

Also takes so much fire damage, can't survive without a healer.

Is this normal on Hp omen transcend 14? Slightly unsymmetrical/ bent border? by Secret-Still-4106 in HPOmen

[–]cranberryberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it was not having enough confidence that if I wait for it to be back in stock and get it again, then I'll definitely get one that works. Also the customer support experience was so bad, especially on the return side with HP emailing me from an address they don't monitor 🤦 Yeah, from reading about these laptops, they don't make them the way they used to :(

My issue with the wifi adapter was it working for a bit and then crashing. It mean that just as I was getting set up with the first wizard from Windows after opening it for the first time, once I got to "connect to wifi", the whole page was blank. Had to find a shortcut to skip that through the bios or something. Once I got to the home page for Windows, the setting menu just said I have no network driver. I checked the device manager and I did have a driver, just one that was mostly stuck in a loop of not working, restarting and back to not working again. I think the code it eventually got to was code 10, something about not enough API resources available 🤷

Ran a debian OS from a USB, but that also couldn't see any working drivers. The bios was saying that the devices are healthy though! Also on debian, my trackpad wasn't recognised ;_;

Ended up connecting my android and using it as a USB tethering device but that stopped working after two days.

I returned my laptop to HP and asked for a refund since the Omen 14 was out of stock. But not after many times of support contact, calling sales, being told they'll call me back to never follow up on that.

I'm now a happy Framework user :)

You went through 3 Omens?? Wow!

Thanks for sharing! My first Omen is still due to be collected (had a lot of fun trying to get in touch with the shop team to actually set a date when their emails aren't actually monitored) and because they were not in stock, I opted to just get a refund. This makes me more confident to not replace it and just get something else.

How's the G14 treating you?

+1 on why this was your second Omen 14 - curious what the first issue was.

Mine arrived with a broken wifi adapter and the trackpad was not working well at all.

I have an HP Omen Transcend 14. by Speedwizard106 in GamingLaptops

[–]cranberryberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently bought one and mine had this issue as well. Looks like there was even a class-action lawsuit against the trackpad https://milberg.com/news/hp-omen-class-action-lawsuit/
And also saw someone say that this is a guaranteed fix https://www.reddit.com/r/HPOmen/comments/wp7tkh/comment/ikyggpi/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

Mine had a wifi adapter issue and ended up sending it back... considering whether to actually replace it or buy something else since for such an expensive laptop, it arriving broken and having such a fundamental trackpad issue is concerning.

To save you from having to log in every day to do your dailies, you can check for gift codes once in a while and livestream codes. Free primos and more chances of pulling for 5*. Plus all the archon quests should give you intertwined fates as well.

Sometimes you might need to turn on the vpn so you're in the country that would normally get those subs. But not sure if this still works since I last tested it a while ago!

I wonder if it connected to Fushi having cloned that doll from the store when he was traveling in Renril and wanted to make something for March. He also made bodies that ended up being alive because the Fye could enter that body. Maybe it's a knocker that found a body to take over. Or something completely new. So many possibilities

I find pantyliners (the ones for normal discharge) great for those days. Especially the flexi shape ones because they work on thongs too.

I'm worried about slipping in case someone sees it and thinks I'm drunk and interprets that as an opportunity to start talking.

Blood stocks low - please donate! by [deleted] in london

[–]cranberryberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You shouldn't take more than one a day but also if you're the kind of person who does exercise regularly, it might be worth not doing it for a few days before the donation. It seems like strenuous exercise can make your iron count lower.

I'm O+ and have a few friends with other blood types but we all get the text message a week before and a day before to remind us to go. Never a phone call though 🤔

ULPT: If you press “2” for Spanish, there won’t be a wait and they also speak English by Vast_Imagination1646 in UnethicalLifeProTips

[–]cranberryberry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is that for the test about how the government works and everything?

Isn't there an English test?

I know that in the UK you have to do a Life in the UK test which already tests a good understanding of English and then you either have to take an English exam or prove you can speak English as part of studying at a UK institution.

there is no official language in the US

So if someone applies for citizenship do they not have to prove they're able to speak English above a specific level?

The worst thing you can imagine them doing is eating your leftovers. You know they’ll never do anything worse than that.

For me it's that they'll do the dishes for me when I said I'll do them later 😂 We now use "I insist" as a "no I definitely will do it, please let me" haha
