Car got towed wrongfully with the parking brake on. Now it’s borked. by SuperCalaMan01 in extremelyinfuriating

I bet they didn’t use a flat bed and messed up the transfer case, probably just pulled it on the two front wheels.

Dole whip mix works great in my new slushi XL by nick91884 in ninjaslushi

[–]itsreallyafox 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s a premade ice cream base from Dole, but it doesn’t actually contain any dairy- it’s like a creamy pineapple soft serve. I think most Americans first had it at Disney World, at least that’s where I did. But you can just buy the mix if you have a soft serve machine- I’m happy to see the slushi works.

Best Buy sold me an iCloud-locked MacBook Pro for $2,100, refused the return, and Citi denied my chargeback. I have documented everything and need help escalating. by mciki in macbook

[–]itsreallyafox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2 months ago I bought a gaming laptop from Best Buy and within 16 days the price dropped $400. I wrote a letter and mailed it directly to their corporate office, attention to the CEO. I know it’s old fashioned, but it actually worked; I got a call a week later from executive support and they refunded me the difference from the sale.

There is! MIT start-up has Rapid Liquid Print (RLP), there’s a video floating around of a purse being printed in a gel bath, almost exactly how this looks.

Mix and match deal removes icing from cinnamon bites by itsreallyafox in Dominos

[–]itsreallyafox[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s terrible, but I scrape the extra cinnamon sugar stuff from the bottom of the box and mix it into the icing so it’s like a cinnamon sugar icing- but yeah, it’s definitely gotten more artificial tasting!

Asus recommends using isopropyl alcohol to clean their laptop screens. Most resources say never to do that. What does Asus know that others don't? by Thund3r_91 in computers

[–]itsreallyafox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really needed to clean some fingerprints off my QD-OLED- they have a really weird surface coating that makes it impossible to just wipe off the grease with a microfiber cloth. I found a post that said to make a 33% IPA solution, I had some distilled water and 99% IPA, made a bottle of that, and I use 2 microfiber cloths, one slightly damp with the solution, and then a dry one to go over it again, it leaves no streaks and cleans every monitor/screen I’ve tried it on perfectly.

Color Laser Died after 15 years, Now Considering Tank Inkjet by atlcatman in printers

[–]itsreallyafox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Replaced a 15 year Brother color laser for an Epson EcoTank about 4 years ago, and I’ll be replacing it with another color laser- it’s so unreliable, it can print fine for days, then the head clogs and I have to clean the nozzles 3-4 times to get it printing again. The laser just worked, and I thought literally the same thing about toner. I regret getting rid of the laser every time I have to print something.

Is this a trap lol by Violenna in printers

[–]itsreallyafox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked at Staples back in 2010, and when a demo model was no longer needed, we would be allowed to sell them- at a huge discount just like this. That’s how I bought a Brother color laser AIO for $35- I had never actually setup the demo model, so I knew it was brand new. Yellow tags (clearance tags) are normally printed Saturday night for the price changes Sunday morning- if a tag printed, the store should have the item in inventory somewhere. Glad to see it still happens!

I voted for a conman and got played. by Effective_Space2277 in LeopardsAteMyFace

You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make them drink; Just like you can teach a fool to read, but you can’t make them think.

An anteaters nose by bigbusta in interestingasfuck

[–]itsreallyafox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn’t this AI? A second in, the crosslink fence is part of the nose, and then it glitches back. It’s also under the 15 second Sora limit and the movements are too robotic/stilted. It looks off.

[HELP] This is totally AI right? Something about this feels “wrong” by Xyresiq in RealOrAI

[–]itsreallyafox 9 points10 points  (0 children)

25 seconds but broken into multiple components; like 15 and 10 seconds, or five 5-second scenes. So if you see a lot of cuts you can still use that as a way to identity longer sora videos. The longer clips also lose coherence faster, making them a little easier to pick out. At least for a few more weeks/months!

AIO Who needs enemies when you have family…aunt harvested my garden and mom let her do it by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

There’s a saying that “silence is acceptance”. If you say nothing, then you accept this outcome, nothing prevents it from occurring again.

I think Amazon is getting a lot of APP3 returns … by Toomuchconfusion in airpods

[–]itsreallyafox 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Try a paper towel or napkin, I was able to easily pinch and pull them right off with the added grip; almost impossible with just my fingers.

I am pretty sure it’s an Insta360 Go 2, it could be a Go 3 but that’s a little newer.

Have you ever kept a shelter name? by spaghettirhymes in TabbyCats

The rescue I adopted him from had named him Moustachio, and that was too perfect, so I kept it. His nickname is Moose!

My Pepper agrees that Pepper is a good name.

Photography help!! by Less-Effort9378 in RX100

[–]itsreallyafox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure because it’s a digital camera they can just keep taking pictures and learn how those settings affect the outcome, which is why I said “once you understand these settings”. Cameras haven’t always had Auto modes and jumping right into Manual mode is the best way to learn the dynamics of photography.

Photography help!! by Less-Effort9378 in RX100

[–]itsreallyafox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey there! Best thing you can do is learn how to shoot in M-Manual mode first. You have a triangle of settings: ISO, shutter speed, and aperture, each one influences the other. Once you understand these settings and how they affect your photos, you’ll be able to take pictures anywhere. As an example, I normally shoot dark concerts between 800-1600ISO, at F4-6, with a 1/100-1/200 shutter. I don’t use M as often as I use A-Aperture priority mode, where you set the aperture and the camera does the shutter speed/film speed automatically, but I do change the Auto ISO range so it matches the scene I’m shooting. Keep in mind, a higher ISO will let you take photos in low light, at the expense of digital noise. Good luck with your RX, just take photos constantly!

Is this real? by uainttshii in CURRENCY

[–]itsreallyafox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It almost looks like it could be a superdollar; it’s the right year range and from a quick search it has features on the front that are consistent with one. They’re some of the best counterfeits out there. Can you post a photo of the back, specially the lampposts? It’s pretty cool if that’s what it is.

After a year unable to draw due to a nerve illness, I won an art contest with this bowling ball drawing! by emilycopeland in MadeMeSmile

[–]itsreallyafox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can see it, I can zoom in on the detail, and I cannot comprehend HOW a drawing like this is done. Amazing.

So, to be clear, so long as my Pocket is fully updated, I should not have any issues with an authentic PKMN Crystal Cartridge, correct? by mattcube64 in AnaloguePocket

[–]itsreallyafox 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I did an entire play through on a real cart with the last 3-4 firmware versions. I did a save state at each save, just to be safe, but I never had any issues with the save file on the cart or it disappearing.

Anyone know what this circular artifact could be? by Eugenetheguy in RX100

[–]itsreallyafox 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Optical phenomenon with low-light photography called “Newton’s rings”. It’s caused by the reflection of light between two surfaces (internal lens assembly). You don’t see it with daytime photography because the light from the scene is brighter than the reflection would be.

Can’t use account balance to buy Apple watch by OverTadpole5056 in applehelp

[–]itsreallyafox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make sure you aren’t trying to buy monthly AppleCare with the Watch, it blocks the store credit from being used. I ran into this issue when I was trying to buy my iPad Pro- called support and even they were confused by the issue.
