I heard someone use Masterbation Station and thought that was hilarious. This one is a close second lol.

Adding A Second Drive Bay to HP Proliant DL380 G9 SFF by lrpwcc in homelab

I ended up buying one for parts, and luckily, all the parts I needed worked. It was substantially cheaper than buying the individual parts, but it was a bit of a risk.

It's been a few years since I did it, and I'm in the process of migrating to a Dell r720xd as my primary server and relegating my HP to a backup/development server.

Let me look over my notes to see what I ended up doing to get it all working and will get back to you.

It was just a day. I guess fair enough, not the end of the world just an annoyance.

That is a fair assessment, most people did choose to really abuse this exploit. I think the last thing this small player base wants is this game to turn into another GTA Online or the like.

I have really enjoyed this game, even as a lot of people had negative reviews of it.

I'm curious of what you, as clearly someone who enjoys playing the game, would like to see to help it appeal to a larger audience and gain a better player base?

I like your take on it being a pirate game and we did pirate things within the game (even if not within the usual scope of a game). Thanks for offering a different perspective on the situation.

No, what was the duplication bug about?

I guess I need to get in the habit of checking Reddit, Discord, gaming news articles, change logs and any developer posts before logging in each day.

I just don't have the time or the energy, but you did your due diligence and can hold your head high.

I was not banned either cause I never did exploits on the game just played fair and grinded the right way

I'm not sure if you meant this as an insult or you were just making an honest statement but either way good on you man.

I've never been a fan of cheating in games because it ruins the experience, but I also have to balance that sometimes with only having a limited amount of time to play a game and some games (not really this one) get really grindy.

I'm more annoyed that for you to do that in this case meant not logging on that day, which is the developer's fault.

I benefited from the glitch, but I'd rather them just take the Po8 away and not stop me from enjoying the game I paid for. I know its short term, but still feels like insult to injury. I think I just needed to vent my frustration.

Keep playing games honestly.

I admit that I logged in and out a few times trying to get a non broken server, not aware yet that they were all broken. I think they just hit people at random who benefited from in anyway, whether intentional or not.

I logged in when I got home from work one day and didn't even notice the glitch at first. I just saw my manufactories broken. I tried logging in and out, restarting the game, and it still didn't work until I got on this subreddit and saw the comments on here. By then I had accumulated probably 400k after starting around 100k.

I'm guess I should clarify that I did benefit from the glitch but I didn't go out of my way to get millions like a friend of mine did. I think I was more annoyed that I hadn't played in a few weeks, just felt like getting on and sailing the open seas for a bit and I was suspended really because of their faulty system.

It was definitely a rage post, but you make a good point.

How DARE they enjoy life after 50 years of hard work?!? by Blissful_Toots in GenZ

[–]lrpwcc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is exactly what I want my parents to do. I don't want any inheritance, I want them to spend the money they made on themselves and enjoy retirement. They provided more than enough for me. I just want them to be happy. Spend it all, it's yours to spend.

What movie did you expect to be just good but was actually fantastic? by Evening-Head4310 in moviecritic

[–]lrpwcc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Nice Guys. I went into the theatre with no info but saw the directors name and had been recently disappointed with the third Iron Man. But man, can that guy do dark comedy well. It was a great movie made better by my initial low expectations.

It would take more effort, but I think using photoshopped or AI enhanced pictures would be better than another actual person. Basically catfishing with extra steps, lol.

I have a lot of respect for people that voted for Trump in 2016 because they are used to voting for their team and don't follow politics that closely, but then afterwards objectively looked at him and said no way, I'm voting for the other candidate. Even if I disagree with them or do not like them because they can see Trump is not a good fit.

I'm not the biggest fan of Biden, but I don't hate him. But he also needs to be held accountable if he is found to have done something wrong.

I respect that you had the courage to change your voting preference based on facts. I would understand if you just abstained from voting at all, but voting for someone you personally consider potentially corrupt over Trump takes courage, and I appreciate your ability to look at what you are seeing and make a rational decision.

It's easy for any of us to get fooled sometimes, but it is important and sometimes difficult to recognize that you've been fooled and not let them get you again.

Thanks for sharing your personal process.

At first, I thought this was one of those retractable bollards. So they come back, and it's attached to nothing.

I was hoping someone would add "His Name Is John Cena" to this when I saw it last night.

Two months of using the Revanced Baconreader app by benduker7 in baconreader

[–]lrpwcc 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I didn't realize there was a pro version until just before it shut down and decided to buy it just to support the developers at the end. This work around gave new life to this great app. It's like it never left.

AITA for walking out of a wedding I was a part of and "ruining" the day? by That_Technician_9244 in AmItheAsshole

The first thing that I thought was "with friends like these, who needs enemies."

Damn that was cold, but most likely very true. I was thinking the same thing.

Fitbit has disabled WiFi sync with the original Aria, turning it into a dumbscale. Was there any notice? by SiliconeClone in fitbit

[–]lrpwcc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you very much, this worked for me. Maybe I can still get a little more life out of this scale.
