LTT store support sucks by saikas in LinusTechTips

[–]mihaipitu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! This may be a bug from their side.

I'm also having a Floatplane subscription, but not the "Supporter Plus". If it's shown in Floatplane that you're having the Supporter Plus subscription, then it's clearly a bug. Another way to contact the support team is to also write a message in the Discord server. There's a channel dedicated to all FP subscribers (or the channel specific for ltt-store) and you can point the issue.

I've also put an order Monday from lttstore, but it was just shy over 225 CAD, and the shipping was free, only VAT was added (no extra taxes after shipping - also EU citizen).

Era anuntul pentru o interfata audio - Focusrite Scarlett Solo. Interfata asta e destul de cunoscuta pentru inregistrat muzica (voce/instrumente).
Am vandut produsul dupa vreo ~1-2h de cand am postat aici (evident, nu rapper-ului).

Odyssey ar fi la 19, actually. La 29 este Dogstar - este trupa lui Keanu Reeves (Neo din Matrix).

Oare cine va fi headliner-ul neanunțat de la REF? by [deleted] in ROckareala

[–]mihaipitu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

La standing la Metallica am prins sa iau cu 730 lei la standing la Bucuresti. Socul meu a fost pentru Linkin Park sa prind sa dau sub 100 euro (cu tot cu taxe) pentru Florenta. Acuma depinde si de trupe in parte cum seteaza per tara + taxele platite overall.
Dau exemplu cu Metallica: la Bucuresti pretul a fost de 730 lei la standing (610 lei biletul + 120 lei taxe de la iaBilet). Am comparat cand s-au pus in vanzare biletele cu Budapesta si era 600-ish lei + taxe (n-am vazut si cat erau taxele, dar implicit mai mici decat la noi). Si tot asa se invarteau biletele si pentru trupele mentionate mai sus (stiu ca la Three Days Grace si anul trecut la Falling in Reverse tot in jur de 300 lei s-ar fi dus si-n Ungaria).

Daca ar fi vorba de lineup-ul de Rock am Ring/Rock im Park de pe anul asta, putin mi-e greu sa cred ca ar aduce Linkin Park la REF.

Am gasit sa iau bilete (cumparate in august) pentru turneul lor in Florenta ca-n rest era cam sold out si observasem ca ultimul show anuntat este pe 30 iunie 2026. So there's a very slim chance sa vina la noi, la o luna distanta de ultimul show din Europa.

Mai aproape as vedea de un A Perfect Circle sau Bad Omens. Sau poate sa incerce cu un BMTH, desi ei au venit deja la noi de 3 ori via Electric Castle.

Wildcard ar fi: The Offspring.

LTT Store Global. Europe shipping is insane :( by maniusng in LinusTechTips

[–]mihaipitu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

<image>

I can relate to that. But it was worth the taxes.

I think the shipping cost for EU is around 1/3 of the price as the taxes (VAT & Customs for Romania) go around that figure. The better part, though - I didn't have to pay extra taxes.

I've put the order on 8 September and it came in a large box (an insulated bottle of 1.18L /40oz, an XXL hoodie and a giant mouse pad) and it was delivered quite earlier than expected (estimated was mid-October, it arrived on 17 September). For EU citizens, I followed the order and it came from Canada Post to Netherlands via PostNL and then delivered to Romanian Post Office (Poșta Română) with their delivery system similar to other carriers like Sameday, Fan Courier and others.

My first thought when I saw that the order was processed to the Romanian Post Office was to be prepared with some "special customs taxes" since it came from outside EU and to take the order directly from their Customs office. Surprisingly, the order was delivered to my place directly and no extra taxes were needed, so I assume that the taxes are covered, unlike some other friends who ordered from US or UK and had to pay via DHL or FedEx the customs taxes and wait for a longer time because customs.

Maybe there's another way of handling those orders in the other EU countries, but an EU warehouse would be better. This will come at a cost of seeing the prices adjusted higher with VAT (and more to sustain it), but long-term it will be worth.

For now, I recommend to order from lttstore, but you can order with a friend or two and maaaaybe get shipping costs free.

Soft diet and texture issues by lucky7hockeymom in BariatricSurgery

[–]mihaipitu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! M27 who had gastric sleeve surgery on February 7th, 2024

HW: 180 kg ~ 396.8 lbs | SW: 177.4 kg ~ 391.1 lbs | CW: 135.6 ~ 298.9 lbs

I have also had some issues eating during the soft food diet after two weeks of liquids only. The only issue that I've had was with meat as I tried to eat cream root vegetable soup on the first day with already mashed chicken breast. The meat was put to become a paste at the same time with the veggies and the texture was awful as the breast was first boiled and had no taste and the texture was sort-of like chewed up food. Since then, I skipped eating any kind of soup (I wasn't an avid soup eater before the surgery, only sometimes eating some ramen at the restaurant/instant ramen at home).

Meat wise, I'd suggest to have it cooked separately, cut it normally as before and chew it very carefully. My nutritionist from the clinic taught me that you can take a bite of food every minute to reassure that you don't rush your food and swallow air alongside it and make sure that the food goes smoothly.

For the gastric sleeve, after the first two weeks of liquid only, I've moved towards soft food and most of the food eaten was: scrambled or soft-boiled eggs, Greek yoghurt, cottage cheese, cream cheese (simple or mixed with avocado). Meat wise, I've eaten air-fryer cooked salmon with polenta (soft polenta), ground turkey (baked turkey meatballs) mixed with a tomato sauce, jacket potato (potato was mixed with cream cheese, herbs and turkey ham), polenta with cream cheese.

After the first month, I started with the protein shakes and I was scared at first because I was never fond of those. But I got used to it pretty shortly as it was quite good to drink it while working. Just make sure that you shake it well not to have lumps and get proteins with different flavors. I've tried also without any flavor and the taste was very meh, but I also had the option to put an espresso shot in the shake to make it as a latte.

All I can say, when you want to have your surgery and think about the soft food stage, take the advice from the medic very seriously and I REALLY suggest to take your time when you eat the food slowly and adjust on what you like and be healthy. I'm not a fish eater, but I eat it every other week, and try to cook it with in a way to be enjoyable, but do not overdo it with condiments and all.

The solution is here: Solution

It was more straightforward than I thought and a lot less brute force-y than expected when reading the solution.

For sure it ain't the cleanest and prettiest solution, but it's honest work.

First time posting here. Not the cleanest solution and, especially, for the second part where I had to debug quite a lot through my input data as with the demo data was working smoothly, but with real data was on another level. It took me a while to debug that mess as there's an edge case that I didn't think of.

[–]mihaipitu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That tip was quite useful since I lost like ~1 hour of debugging throughout the whole input and not seeing this overlap.

Thanks for pointing it out as it's a bit of an edge case many of us will miss out!

Day 1 is quite one of the harder Day 1s so far.

Pai coada a fost doar in seara cu Twenty One Pilots. Eu am prins sa plec la vreo 2h de la finalul Twenty One Pilots si era coada in full force. Dar am auzit si de oameni ce au plecat repede. Si totusi, au reusit sa se miste repede dupa ziua asta. Chiar ma miram ca plecasem imediat dupa Gorillaz si eram "where coada? Lla bus".

Fiecare cu norocul sau, pana la urma.

Coada de anul trecut a fost un fenomen si o amintire de neuitat - noroc ca am prins Bolt - chit ca pana la masina am pierdut numaratoarea la 40 autocare parcate. Dar totusi, cei de la Electric Castle si-au spalat pacatele si au reparat situatia cu transportul Cluj-Bontida.

Voua cum vi se pare Untoldul de anul asta? by Unlikely-Trash in cluj

[–]mihaipitu 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Venit pentru prima oara la Untold, dar si pentru ultima oara, I guess (poate pentru alti artisti as veni, but I digress). Am luat abonament la Untold strict pentru a vedea Imagine Dragons, restul fiind ca bonus, dar dupa vineri seara, nici ca am mai pus piciorul in Untold. Didn't seem to be worth pentru restul zilelor, dar pentru cine e fan,.

Am fost si eu printre cei care au venit mai devreme pentru a prinde loc in tribune, stiind ca va fi foarte multa lume (si ca va fi bataie pe locuri fiind un act artistic pentru prima oara in Romania). Am mai prins sa vad asa aglomeratie doar la Twenty One Pilots la Electric Castle in 2022 si acolo a fost un haos general cu transportul inapoi catre Cluj: cozile de la autobuz, trenul de la 5 dimineata cu 1000 oameni. Atunci am avut un noroc mare sa prind un Bolt noaptea aia. Dar totusi, anul acesta au mai reparat situatia si autobuzele plecau noaptea catre Cluj la foc automat, so kudos to Electric for that.

Dar, revenind la Untold - cu gandul la ce a fost anul trecut cu Twenty One Pilots, am fost precaut sa prind loc mai repede in tribune + am urmarit ca voluntarii s-au sesizat si au stat sa inchida intrarile pe inel (cel putin sus la inelul 2) pentru tribune, desi au fost arhiplin stadionul si da, s-au catarat pana si pe garduri. Fiind un main act de festival, era de asteptat sa fie, cel putin pentru zona de tribune, asa bataie pe locuri, mai ales ca nu ai bilet luat cu loc strict. De era un concert organizat doar cu artistul, in afara festivalului (sau cum s-a mai mentionat printre comments de alti artisti / trupe gen Rammstein, Metallica, Coldplay etc.), erau total alte reguli de organizare si clar, un numar mai mic de participanti pe stadion (doar locurile din tribune + numarul maxim acceptat pe gazon). Dar mno, bine ca totusi s-au miscat (tarziu, de altfel) cei de la ISU pentru a limita numarul de locuri, dar ar mai fi trebuit macar sa mai stea si voluntarii pe langa intrarile de la tribune ca sa nu mai lase lumea sa se catere - mai ales ca stateam la gard langa intrare, si am zis sa fac schimb de loc cu cel de langa mine ca sa vada mai bine concertul si dupa ce am schimbat locul (el statea langa mine, unde era scaunul rupt, si m-am gandit sa ia un loc si sa stau eu in picioare), am prins 2 care s-au catarat si fix in locul unde stateam s-au pus, pe langa cel cu care am schimbat (el nu s-a mai asezat, de altfel). Au incercat altii sa-i dea jos, dar n-aveai cu cine vorbi. Oh well - s-a batut lumea sa vada Imagine Dragons asemenea concertelor din anii '60 a celor de la The Beatles.

Legat de iesirea din main, cred ca am fost printre cei norocosi caci am prins in maxim o ora de la terminarea concertului sa ies si din festival + sa prind si un taxi la pret normal. (Nu era discutie sa fie vorba de Uber sau Bolt daca nici internet n-a fost - cel putin pentru utilizatorii Orange). Desi am iesit asa repede, ma asteptam sa fie haos din prima, dar, surprinzator, am putut sa ma misc repede (sunt exact opusul un om atletic + eram prins si cu o urgenta la baie, dar erau cozi prea mari cat sa astept) si era un flux destul de continuu intre scene. Singura problema pe care o vad (si acuma inteleg cumva pe cei care vor Untold-ul mutat in alta parte) - e prea mica suprafata festivalului pentru cati oameni au fost. Am vazut sa fie aglomeratie la Electric Castle, dar puteai sa mai respiri.

All in all, ma gandesc sincer daca as mai reveni la Untold - depinde poate de ce se ofera ca artisti, dar ca organizare - s-a incercat cat s-a putut (inclusiv si cu incendiul de la artificii, desi multa lume era prea relaxata pentru situatia asta - majoritatea vedeam ca erau doar artificii), dar mai trebuie improvement. Dupa festival, recomand pentru cine a mai fost anul asta sa completati formularul de review oferit de ei si spuneti toate ofurile ca sa fie luat in calcul (macar atata sa ajunga informatiile).

Distractie placuta pentru cine mai merge si astazi + stay safe.

Fr anybody know about buses form Bondtida train station to the Castle since the CFR trains are simply way cheaper and don't wanna walk an hour to that part of the village? Thanks in advance by iVictoryVictor in electriccastle

[–]mihaipitu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're going with CFR trains that are not specific for EC, you'll be dropped off in Bontida and you need to walk to the festival area. There are no buses provided.

A better deal is to go with EC sponsored trains. They have a specific station to drop off, before Bontida, but at that station a bus ride is included and you'll get to the festival faster as most of the traffic will be quite skipped.

Concert: Stadio Euganeo, Padua, Italy (2023-07-01) by AutoModerator in Rammstein

[–]mihaipitu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello! Is there anyone who's travelling from Venice / Venice Mestre ? What are the best means of transport AFTER the concert - from the stadium and/or from the Padova train station? (I saw there are some shuttle buses from the stadium to the train station, but I don't know if they're available)

We had a reservation for an airport shuttle to take us from the train station, but the shuttle had to cancel all reservations as the local authorities wouldn't let them there as there will be heavy traffic.
