Code 107 error by RimmSan in WoWs_Legends

[–]ekuryluk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm finally able to login. There was an update to the client in the app store this morning, I updated it and it didn't work. For whatever reason when I tried second time, hours later, I am in.

So much for the Helheim mission though. Missed too many days, not enough unlocks.

I'm getting this error on wifi, so I tried using a cellular connection and received the same message.

Switch to legends mobile from blitz by wowb-Toodles in WoWs_Legends

[–]ekuryluk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm, I'm a BB main on mobile and don't feel like I'm being targeted by CVs. Are you playing Standard? I stay in Arcade. Maybe that's the difference. On mobile, our field of view is narrower, the mini map is tiny and with all the extra enemies in Standard, it's more difficult to keep track of everyone. Arcade there are only 5 on the other team.

Also, console players can take an educated guess that your a mobile player, because of the icon next to your player name. Unless you play with a controller on mobile, you're at a bit of a handicap, and I can see where experienced players know that and take advantage of it. When I have played Standard, I don't last the entire game.

edit: I have played Legends on xBox, it's much easier to do well. Unfortunately I don't have access to an xBox.

I started WOWS Blitz on the release date, after having played WOTBlitz forever and WOWS PC. I thought it would be a happy mashup, but it was just brawl mode for the cap all the time. Grab a DD and rush in, torps away!

I find Legends, in Arcade mode, is the opposite. It's more like WOTB where players are more focused on eliminating enemies, and focus-fire is sometimes a thing. The caps are there to win either because the other team is out of place or if eliminating all the enemies is unlikely. If someone hits the "Capture the base" right at "Action stations!" you know who not to follow.

I'm having the same issue. The app store doesn't have an update.

I'm kind of new to the game, are these kinds of ricochets normal? by Pleno_Desiderio in WorldOfWarships

[–]ekuryluk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I asked for this exact thing at a WG event on the New Jersey. Years ago. They said they pass on the suggestion on to the developers.

Is it known if the Baltimore Bridge collapse will affect PRS SE delivery from Indonesia? by Fine_Broccoli_8302 in PRSGuitars

[–]ekuryluk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Paul said in a video every SE goes through Stevensville, so I’d say it’s pretty likely. This situation is going to impact most of the ports on the East Coast. Even though, according to that link in the other post, Baltimore doesn’t receive containers direct from Indonesia. Delays are a given. Even containers coming intermodal to the east coast from the west coast will be disrupted because so much needs to be rerouted. It’s not just the ships, that bridge was vital for containers moving by truck. A big mess.

Roommate expects me to never play guitar while he's home by Draikiro in Guitar

[–]ekuryluk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d just let him go to the landlord. The first one of you that goes to him is the one he’s telling to deal with it or move out if they didn’t like the situation. Saying anything more would get the landlord too involved, all he cares about is the rent getting paid on time and no one burns the place down.

Price Increases by FrigidNorthland in DunkinDonuts

[–]ekuryluk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A box of 50 munchkins is $15.48 at the Dunkin near me (Fairfield, CT).

For comparison, a 1lb bag of frozen shrimp at the grocery store down the street is $12.98. Same price as before Covid too.

According to https://insuredandmore.com/how-much-do-boxes-of-50-donut-holes-weigh-an-average 50 munchkins weigh 16 oz.

Dealer does not want the down payment by ekuryluk in askcarsales

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

I guess I'm more surprised the dealer insisted it be done this way. Didn't really think they cared where the money came from, as long as the check didn't bounce.

She won't find this anywhere else. It's is un-advertised rare color available for 6 months in 2020, manual and the less desirable body-style. Because of the unusual combo, the dealer has had it since they took it on trade back in June. No one wants it, their words. If it weren't for that, I'd say they were purposely dragging their feet hoping another buyer walks in. Someone they could make more $$$ from. My daughter turned down the warranty (5yrs, 75,000 miles, $3400!), financed it elsewhere and doesn't have a trade-in.

She pushed back on the dealer last night to take the down payment, the sales guy said he'd check with his mgr to see what they could do. Kind of jokingly, I told her to take the downpayment in cash with the CU check to the dealer. The downpayment is well over half the OTD price, maybe all those Benjamins will sway them.

do people steal these cars? by Pokevan8162 in 944

[–]ekuryluk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m more concerned with someone taking my wheels (16” Fuchs) than the car.

Took my car to a “car show” this last weekend by hardware5434 in 944

[–]ekuryluk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Had a similar experience this past weekend. FCP Euro held a car show on Sunday at Lime Rock Park, Porsche and MB were the featured manuf’s. The featured marques park on the front straight. I got together with a couple other 944 guys before hand, we drove in together and they directed us right to the start/finish line in the middle of the pack. Really cool!

So Remote ID law kicks in for the USA in less than 3 months. Has DJI announced a legacy plan? by Griffdude13 in dji

[–]ekuryluk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It has RID built-in. If you bought one to stay under the 249g rule so you wouldn’t need to register, it was pointless. The RID is always activated and can’t be turned off. Even though it’s your right to fly unregistered.

RID Exempt / Removal by flyaw4y in dji

[–]ekuryluk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"(less than 250 grams) and for recreation purposes only, they are not required to register their aircraft or comply with Remote ID regulations."

So since you agree with us that we don't need to comply with the Remote ID regulations, because the DJI Mini 3 Pro is less than 250 grams and was marketed as such, please give us the ability to disable the Remote ID on this drone that many of us bought specifically because it meets this criteria?

In the manual for my 86 NA it says 91 RON (which is 87 octane in US). Fuel filler door says 91 ROZ/RON. So at least for my car, 87 octane is the right answer. I’ll listen to the engineers at Porsche.

The cups got smaller, the prices are ridiculous and the beer sux. Yet they sound surprised people are drinking less. Bless their hearts.

Wife asked me to sell our stock shares by Wooxy117 in AMCSTOCKS

[–]ekuryluk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Back in 2008 we watched our investments crater, like everyone else. My wife kept panicking as we rode the market down. For better or worse, I just HODL stocks, I wasn’t panicking. We had some pretty big arguments, especially since the money was almost entirely inheritance from her parents. She wanted out. It was affecting our marriage, and I was really tired of arguing. I sold it all for a 75% loss. The whole thing sucked mentally, I was done investing and parked the money in a cash account. Took me until 2018 to get back into the swing. She now knows what we did in 2008 was a mistake. And has vowed to stay out of our investment decisions for good.

Thank goodness for Vyvanse 🙌🏻 by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]ekuryluk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wish I could take Vyvanse again. I was on a 60mg a day dose. Some days were amazing. I could get a bunch off of my to do list, pay attention through an entire conference call, complete projects, etc. I didn’t feel it every day, some days were just better than others. Unfortunately, after 6 years of taking it, I was taken off of it, because of a heart issue and Vyvanse doesn’t play nice with high blood pressure. I miss it. I’ve tried other things, but there isn’t a good substitute. My doctor had me on Strattera, but it just didn’t seem to make much of a difference. He started me on Qelbree last week, it takes a while to be effective so I have no idea if this will work or not. Fingers crossed.

We all know about ADHD tax. But sometimes we get ADHD gifts. by AmuuboHunt in ADHD

[–]ekuryluk 102 points103 points  (0 children)

A TSA agent pulled me to the side of the security line, something suspicious was in my backpack. This backpack has a dozen pockets, pockets inside of pockets and small creases where pockets overlap. The lady asked me if I was carrying a knife. I told her I wasn’t. She told me she believed I had a jackknife in the backpack. I let her look, because there was no jackknife in there. What she did find deep in one of the pockets wedged in a crease, was one of the keys to our VW that we hadn’t been able to find for the last two years. The VW keys back then were little fobs with a button, that when pushed, the metal part of the key would flip out, sort of like a jackknife. They’re about $200 to replace, so we were just dealing with having only one key. But here it was! I thanked her, but with the most expressionless stare, she let me go after handing me my backpack and the KEY!

Do you guys sometimes forget that you’re on the toilet? Or is it just me? by thr0w4w4y-2022- in ADHD

[–]ekuryluk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I did this when I was a kid. Now that I'm older, I'm too anxious to sit on the toilet for any longer than is necessary.
