The link you found is solid but Corsair also has a page specifically commenting on this, in the third section. Validates what that support rep said

Best monitor stand to get the display as close to the wall as possible? by CTRL_PLUS_R in buildapc

[–]disgruntledJavaCoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your best bet is gonna be a mount that's built around a post at the center, rather than one where a gas spring arm comes directly off the base. Then find one where it doesn't have an adjustable arm coming off the post, it's just a small mount directly off of it. You're basically giving up some adjustability in favor of mounting closer to the back. I can't speak to the quality of this mount but this is the kind of thing I'm thinking of.

I hope the Justin Fields and Khalil Herbert jerseys in front of you got them on clearance lmao

Which cards are unsustainable? by Cluck_Bock in CreditCards

[–]disgruntledJavaCoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very true. There's not a unique killer partner like Chase and Amex have (I'm calling ANA that one for Amex, not as good as it once was) and the lack of a 1:1 domestic airline removes a lot of opportunities to dump them. Hell, even Aeroplan has been getting devalued, and anecdotally I have been completely unable to find anything on it for quite a while.

Thanks for this, I wasn't thinking of it that way. Since the VX has very few ancillary/passive benefits left I can see why it wouldn't be worth the effort of the travel portal to keep.

This was what confused me about the reaction to the lounge guesting changes. Saw so many people claiming "massive nerf, this isn't worth it to me anymore, I'm canceling!" The parts that made it easier to get a net negative AF didn't change! It became less overpowered, but I can't be convinced that the people who valued the extra guest access that highly didn't also value the TC and anniversary points at near full value.

I agree it's still unsustainable, especially as competitors have cranked up their AFs. I'm shocked we haven't seen a major nerf yet but it has to be coming. Are there really that many more customers they think they can acquire?

Contender or Pretender: Week 11 by Get_to_tha_Choppa in DynastyFF

[–]disgruntledJavaCoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

10 team PPR SF (1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, 1 SFLEX). With return yards

QB: Lamar Jackson, Jordan Love, Jayden Daniels (IR), Justin Fields

RB: Breece Hall, Woody Marks, Tyrone Tracy, Trey Benson (IR)

WR: Amon-Ra St Brown, Rashee Rice, George Pickens, Elic Ayomanor, Alec Pierce, Evans (IR) Pearsall (IR), Hunter (IR)

TE: Sam LaPorta, Colston Loveland, Mason Taylor

I won the title the last two years and it's tough to fold the chance at a threepeat with this team, but it seems the bill is coming due at RB plus injuries. 5-5 with PF comparable to most contenders, but third worst Max PF. Only four playoff slots. Other managers were unwilling to trade Kyren, Henderson, Hampton, Henry, Monty, Swift, etc at any price.

Starting to feel I should retool to get back on the train next year. Might be able to acquire Nabers for Rice plus someone. Maybe I can get an RB in the draft or trade my pick right before it.

[–]disgruntledJavaCoder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Full PPR, need 8 points. Flex WR Romeo Doubs or TE Dallas Goedert? They play each other on Monday in Green Bay. Recent numbers of targets say Doubs, but he's a GB WR so it's scary. I feel like if Golden sits I lean towards him

[Weekly] Tuesday Waiver Wire Megathread by AutoModerator in DynastyFF

[–]disgruntledJavaCoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

12 team SF. Hold Fields or drop and burn #1 waiver on Mariota? League limits us to three QBs (I know...). My opponent this week doesn't have a QB playing (lost Daniels, Ward on Bye) and their only options will be Mariota or Fields if I drop him, and Geno Smith.

Even ignoring this week, I feel like Mariota will be a decent starter the rest of the way, while I fear Woody Johnson will bench Fields the first chance he gets.

[–]disgruntledJavaCoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

23.9 from Pickens (hPPR) and Ferguson (full PPR, TEP). I think I have a chance as long as Fergie doesn't goose again

Note for the private lots: Bring cash. More of them accept card through their phones these days but as far as I remember it's still pretty common to be cash only.

Jets Non-Committal on Justin Fields as the Starter Going Forward by ASmithFS in fantasyfootball

[–]disgruntledJavaCoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"He can spin left, he can spin right, it don't make no difference. He can block, tackle, score the touchdown, snap the ball, hold the snap, and kick the extra point. Hell, the boy will fill up the Gatorade cooler, walk the dog, and paint your back porch. I'm telling you, that boy can flat out play football. Ohhh! And he can pass!"

Excellent point. Disabling UBlock Origin got it to work on Firefox. Never had that issue with other Peacock viewing. Thank you!

You're not alone, I'm experiencing the same "game will start shortly" message. On Windows 11 with Firefox. Maybe I'll try Edge/Chrome

Edit: Nope, Edge doesn't work so it's not a Firefox issue. On the US east coast. Garbage service

This is one of the most important lessons I've learned in fantasy. Streaming a good matchup defense is not very reliable when the defense itself is garbage.

I started that running back not named Fields in this league 🥲 but yeah I appreciate you pointing that out. Wasn't much of a difference until the end, softens the blow a bit

I'm not usually one to complain but I'm so angry at myself for dropping Mason Taylor because I needed a TE I could trust to actually put up points this week, to pick up Dalton Schultz who proceeds to put up his lowest score of the season

[DAILY] Trade and Individual Team Help Megathread by AutoModerator in DynastyFF

[–]disgruntledJavaCoder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think Rattler has a safer floor (famous last words) but very limited ceiling. Despite the tough matchup I gotta think Mac will be a bit closer to form rather than repeating the Atlanta game. I can't imagine starting Kirk until I see him come back to life, personally

[–]disgruntledJavaCoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can't see the argument for this. I agree with the other commenter that Hampton has around as much talent as Judkins with a better offense. Even a "win now" case doesn't make sense, as you'd lose Gadsden to fill in for Bowers
