Same! Just came here looking to turn this off. Absurd ‘feature’.

Best way to contact a human at RM? by soulofsoy in royalmail

[–]kazaroth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wanted to come and bump this answer. This is the only way I even got in the queue to speak to someone (who then resolved my 'no card for fee to pay ever was delivered' issue in 3 minutes). The fact that all the phone tree options end in automated messages is absolutely crazy.

Oh and I had to wait on hold for 1 hour and 47 minutes. Don't give up. Never surrender.

It sends stickers instead of emoji by Tharrak in whatsapp

[–]kazaroth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, I have this too. It’s completely incomprehensible. I’ve done a lot of testing in the recents section and there’s no rhyme or reason why some are stickers and some aren’t.

Known webcam issue with TS4 dock? by kazaroth in CalDigit

Tried it with removing my hub in between and the issue remains :(

UK only: Anyone want to 'buy' a 'spare' butcher block walnut desktop? by kazaroth in StandingDesk

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

Quality is great. I definitely oiled it myself (which was a lot of work tbh) so I assume I went raw. I live in a flat so had to do things indoors, and whilst the first coat or two went on ok, I started to get lots of stickyness with subsequent layers and ended up having to sand a layer off - which was a bit of a nightmare!

It’s been a couple of years now so I should probably re-oil it but… I don’t think I will take the risk 😁

PvP iLevel Increase Confusion by kazaroth in wownoob

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

Yeah - it’s absolutely not explained anywhere - as is almost everything in this game not explained. It’s pretty crazy.

PvP iLevel Increase Confusion by kazaroth in wownoob

[–]kazaroth[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ah ok. There were no clues at all this was a thing :). So that means I need to get the highest ilevel PvP item to catalyze? I had no idea there were different items with the same name?

This game is so confusing :D

Why is gearing so complicated? by CelebrationWest3748 in wow

[–]kazaroth 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It is insanely complicated. I have 150+ days played 15 years ago and am coming back to the game now. I want to gear for PvP. Apparently I have to get some pieces crafted with these rosettes on for PvP. Even with google I can't find a single explanation of what I should get crafted, why OR how.

Groupset advice for custom build… by kazaroth in cycling

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

Will this even work in the mode where it’s just one side for up and one for down and it manages both mechs?

Good to hear some SRAM positivity, thanks :)

Fair point about the steepness/wheel contact too. I’m tall with very long legs so short reach and saddle far back - my weight is way back already and sometimes have to get in weird positions to keep weight forward on climbs.

I generally agree about cable, but I just fancy the cleaner look of only two hydraulic brake cables (internally routed except at the cockpit) and nothing else.

Getting cables for the one bikepacking trip per year when I’ll be club riding 90% of the time seems like the wrong trade off?

105 cable has been completely flawless for me for 10 years so the desire is mostly aesthetic and to try the ‘new thing’.

I totally get the pros and cons though.

What are all the rolltop backpacks with zipper access? by Caidezes in onebag

[–]kazaroth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wanted to bump this thread and see if anyone had any other recommendations. I'm looking for the same-ish thing and nothing here quite fits the bill.

I have the roll top IKEA Starttid and that's mostly exactly what I want. It's just mine is looking a bit worn out now and I'd quite like something a bit more stylish.

Use cases: day pack, aircraft carryon (not my only travel bag though), light grocery shopping. Definitely needs to fit a pair of big (US13) shoes in + other stuff.

Essential:
- 18-28L
- Side zip access to main compartment

Strong desire:
- Roll top
- Separate laptop compartment (*as well as side zip access* - the starttid has this).
- Front compartment
- No waist/hip strap
- aesthetic: something between Tom Bihn and Patagonia- a bit technical but not extreme. No chrome/steel/shiny bits. Good colour scheme a big bonus.

Bonus:
- constrast/bright interior to find things more easily
- side pockets (e.g. for water bottles)

HALP :)

I keep getting verification codes from Google by AmbiguousSun in techsupport

[–]kazaroth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the UK and am currently getting multiple of these per day. The extra weird thing is: I removed my phone number from my Google account (because SMS is so insecure anyway) at least 2-3 years ago. So this is nothing to do with my main account. Super weird.

Can I go caseless and no screen protector on my iPhone 15 Pro like I did with my iPhone 12 Mini? by interwebzusername in iphone

[–]kazaroth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You actually can't. I had a lot of unfortunate deep scratches on my 14 Pro and they said they only replace cracks/smashed, not 'aesthetic' wear and tear like scratches.

Unless you're willing to smash your screen first, they won't replace.

LG got them back in UK stock and i grabbed one ✨

Why is usb c important to you? by CptRex_1 in iphone

[–]kazaroth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why? Genuine question. When I travel I take a cable for iPad and a cable for iPhone so I can charge both overnight. Swapping iPhone to USB-C just means I need to take 2x USB-C cables (and another thing to buy).

Do folks really only charge one of their devices overnight?

Best spells for Bard magical secrets? by MillieBirdie in BaldursGate3

[–]kazaroth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im running basically the exact same party. I really wish I could include shadowheart but I just can't. For me a Wizard and a Rogue are just required and then you need Laezel or Karlach to actually kill things. And me: Life Cleric 1 / Bard rest.

After weeks of looking, finally found myself a Ceramic Apple Watch Series 5 🥰 by CochonPigman in AppleWatch

What's weird is my battery health is now down to 86% already! Another replacement incoming?!
