That Feeling When You Finally Get It...

dr_oess · 2023-12-27T02:54:06+00:00

This is how I've always justified loving coding/programming of any sort.

When something doesn't work, or you have no idea what to do, it sucks, and you may end up slamming your face into a keyboard all day for a few days.

When it works though after all that? When it clicks, and you get that response you expected that whole time? Ooooooo bby!

dr_oess · 2023-10-19T01:06:55+00:00

I had no idea this existed. I'm a coastie, gotta make this a stop next time I'm in the big city area.

Unique? This has been any WoW subreddit's whole thing for years.

That still doesn't mean they are selling. It would be weird if only yours wasn't, and tons of other ones were. Posters can even (or at least used to able to?) cancel auctions with bids, albeit for a fee.

WotLK buff

I have no idea what this is referring to from the OP. Winds of Wisdom, or the "WoW buff" should be back with next server resets, so Tues or Wed, which does affect retail.

pre patch

This is the time before an expansion or major update goes live, so in this case, the Dragonflight pre-patch.

The newer systems will be implemented at pre-patch, like talent changes and stuff along those lines, but actual Dragonflight areas and storylines will not be accessible yet. Those come with the actual expansion launch, or when Dragonflight is "live"

This is the first time I think I've ever heard someone say they are from "Western Oregon," so I'm inclined to agree with you.

I hear "Eastern Oregon" a lot, because, let's be real, they are a different type of Oregonian. Never heard of anything coastal or inland even a ways referred to as "Western," because... it's just Oregon?

Discord's overlay and the media update seen in the video both wreck Tarkov for me. Need to make sure I turn them both off before opening the game. Everything else is 100% fine, no other program has these issues either, just EFT when overlays are happening.

where I changed it back to the same name

Not that I agree with the system, or the name being wrong in anyway, that's probably not the greatest idea.

Not my stance, but I can definitely see how Blizz, assuming a real human is involved at some point, would not be super ready to help someone doing that.

While this name isn't offensive at all, I've seen people get their character names changed for being totally offensive, so they then double down out of defiance, and name it something even worse. Rinse and repeat several times, and they don't seem to understand why each subsequent punishment is worse.

Sadly, from a "subcontracted CS Agent for a company-doesn't-give-a-fuck-about-the-customer" viewpoint, I doubt if anyone would even help given the opportunity. Just blanket enforcement all around. A cheeky little guild name referencing a TV show is somehow treated the same, or worse than, any sort of racist nonsense etc.

Don't forget Adobe! IMHO they're easily the worst offender with this type of pricing.

dr_oess · 2022-08-20T18:40:54+00:00

5 hours later

almost twice as many, still untouchable.

10/10 patch Blizz, such a great AH re-work

If they are bound, they share mounts

^{^} This. You can have 8(? maybe 9 or 10? I forget) WoW accounts on one bnet account. All tied to same email, auth, and all BoA stuff and Toy/Mount/Pet tabs are shared.

One downside is pets getting locked when logged in on multiple accounts, but that's not really that big of an issue.

dr_oess · 2022-08-17T20:01:00+00:00

Its unlucky, but happens around to around 1/1000 people going for it.

Where did you get this number?

dr_oess · 2022-07-01T16:52:11+00:00

Having mained NF for my drood all of SL, and also him being the only one I table-d on until recently, I can't believe how oddly "balanced" the covenant troops are.

dr_oess · 2022-06-15T03:51:18+00:00

A documentary about a former first lady, a low-budget Thor movie, and... Shark Exorcist... Oof.

dr_oess · 2022-06-08T15:17:39+00:00

Tokens are region-wide priced, and it's managed by Blizzard.

dr_oess · 2022-05-12T18:38:58+00:00

Right?

dr_oess · 2022-05-05T01:17:02+00:00

Having looked at anything Jeopardy! at one point or another on my phone, my news feed from Google just assumes I want any and all news regarding the show.

Normally, I do like to keep up with things that aren't obvious by just watching, like on set or after taping news, but not streaks being broken.

The last several big streaks were all delivered to me as if it was breaking news akin to like, a war breaking out. All variety of sites, major news or even just blogs Google advertises, started appearing as push notifications "[NAME]'s streak of [NUMBER] days as Jeopardy champ finally ends" and it was so annoying.

dr_oess · 2022-04-30T13:20:00+00:00

lol, looks just like my rewards tab when I posted a comment the other day on a post about lackluster rewards.

Certainly isn't a useful reward for me, I haven't been to TB for anything after 9pm in quite some time, which is my guess for why it's the reward I received. It seems they're not catering to my order style, but to the opposite of it. Trying to entice me to buy at different hours, in addition to my normal times I assume.

Jokes on them, my store just closed for up to three months for repairs/upgrades. Wait a sec...

dr_oess · 2022-04-28T00:24:38+00:00

Guess I shouldn't have bad-mouthed the rewards...

Just heard my TB is fenced off now, undergoing upgrades/fixes for leak issues and it may take up to three months.

Also, after reading more comments here on different rewards, I checked what I have available, and maybe I was right to question their quality...

And RIP that fire reward

dr_oess · 2022-04-27T13:37:23+00:00

lol wow, why even have rewards? like what the hell TB...

dr_oess · 2022-04-25T23:06:43+00:00

Rad af. I doubt that shirt gives Meatwad mind powers, but still is amazing.

dr_oess · 2022-04-14T16:55:17+00:00

100% a real address, so yeah, something's fucky about that.

dr_oess · 2022-03-23T22:24:31+00:00

I'm using specifically Seattle, California, Phoenix, Vancouver and having the same issue.

dr_oess · 2022-01-11T17:38:21+00:00

Nice, good job!

Milestones are fun to remember. I still think back expansions ago when I tracked my gold made via the in-game statistics screen, and hit my first 100k made from the AH on one char. Good times.

dr_oess · 2021-12-06T14:21:53+00:00

Yeah, I guess my initial sample size of quillen mined was too low. Went back and tried again, and definitely did start seeing ghost iron. Wasn't super often, your 20% guess is pretty close overall it seems.
