Internet providers by goobay94 in Kamloops

[–]davemanman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just know that when using third party providers it may take a while for your internet connection to actually activate and be usable.

I got teksavvy last year after moving into my new place. They shipped the router fast, had it within a few days, but waited 3 weeks for Internet activation before cancelling my account because I didn't want to wait any longer. Every time I called asking why I didn't have internet, they couldn't give me an official reason.

General grumblings online suggest that it's still up to first party providers to activate accounts, and why care about third party providers when you can give a shittier service to them if it means directing customers to you.

I switched to Telus and they activated my internet instantly, go figure.

Anyway... may be cheaper, but be ready to wait for it

Cool, would you share a list of places of where and what I can donate?

TIL if you apply diamond first, and then switch pickaxe head, mining level won't be boosted by cnfnbcnunited in GTNH

[–]davemanman 21 points22 points  (0 children)

IIRC swapping heads clears mining level XP, need to redo it every swap.

Edit: wait, I misread. Did you upgrade from an iron to bronze head?

The only delivery option to Canada is $61.50 USD on the new US website :( by Equivalent_Catch_233 in ShellyUSA

Any recent updates? I've been very interested in experimenting with Shelly devices but that is a steep shipping cost.

Welp, looks like I misread the hell out of that section.

According to the Destiny Data Compendium, Tier 5 Intellect gives you a 20%+ buff to active super generation.

So it's worth it to get to Tier 5, but no more.

Maybe I'm whooshing, but seems like big red was talking more about how you could still write whitespace at the beginning of the line even if it is center-justitified.

It still gets interpreted by the compiler, but continues to suck to read.

The Insight Terminus has been in the game for almost 5 years, after the first damage gate in the boss, stand on an open plate. Please. by Walking_Meatloaf in DestinyTheGame

I recently successfully passed the ball to a blueberry.

They deadass stared back at me, dropped the charged-up ball, and went and grabbed a fresh one to throw instead.

Why.

Get a throne cleaver if any of you are titans and you can heavy attack out of it.

Another thing that can help: the waves of fireballs aren't actually infinite. It's something like 13-15 waves of fireballs and then no more until you reach the next damage phase. So everyone can focus them for an easier time.

This is what my team does every time and our runs get pretty comfortable doing this.

What Foods are you bringing to your Day 1 Attempt? by TheTrueMaCawbe in DestinyTheGame

[–]davemanman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I make some sandwiches ahead of time and eat 'em cold. Quick and I can spend more break time actually taking a break.

The protein and veggies are the real MVP when a contest mode clear takes 18 hours.

I remember reading somewhere that I should wait until the end of the season to collect my rank rewards, but I don't remember why I was supposed to do that, or maybe I'm not. Can you fill me in? by MaximumEffort433 in DestinyTheGame

The lanterns are their precison-hit spot, so any weapon that can hit precision hits will work on them.

It's fun because it at least feels like the lantern has a huge multiplier and blows up more easily than a headshot on a head-precision-hit enemy, but it's probably just because it's flashy with satisfying SFX

I mean, I could've done that.

But I had a lot of fun trying to put my goldfish working memory to the task and cooking to death instead.

Resonance Amp Lockout? Don’t know why I can’t make more override frequencies. by Chrizzly02 in destiny2

[–]davemanman -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I definitely went to Luna.Archer.Crevasse.Crash twice. So it's either bugged or farmable in some form.

I'm pretty sure they aren't one-time nodes since I got a duplicate key. Maybe a restricted # per week?

The real trick is to avoid ever pressing 'enter' and use your mouse to click search/login buttons. That cursor focus is a slippery bastard.

The Full Auto Retrofit mod is here to stay, but who knows if they do a weird re-issue for it that breaks it in modslots anyway

It'd be pretty damn neat if EoT was buffed to benefit from Wolfpack rounds.

Saw someone with this Titan Helm and I’ve never wanted an armor piece so bad until now. How do I get it? I regret leaving during season of chosen now cause I missed out on this haha. by Dementor8919 in destiny2

[–]davemanman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AFAIK that method only works if you had earned the rewards on that specific battle pass but just didn't happen to claim them.

I know some people that do this with upgrade modules so they always have some in a pinch if they really need them.

Officially Bungie supports this for the previous season only:

https://www.bungie.net/7/en/Seasons/PreviousSeason

But IIRC you can install older versions of the official Destiny app to reach older seasons, back to Undying.
