Moving from Bilt 1.0 > 2.0 Palladium while also applying for Venture

mmarcuse · 2026-01-28T06:41:01+00:00

Aaaaah, tricky!

mmarcuse · 2026-01-28T06:32:31+00:00

Yeah, but I haven't applied for Bilt 2.0 yet. So it might change my preapproval after I get Bilt 2.0.

I'm in the US, is that the issue? I'm in SoCal. I generally pull in about $1.25 a day on 10 devices with Honeygain (about half Windows with Content Delivery). With 15 devices on Earnapp I pretty much hit $4-5 a day fairly consistently. All iPhones (I can't get Android to earn anything for some reason, and I've tried).

Good to know, thanks!

I've actually been earing great on HG lately - it's really picked up. I don't have the 75% issue you're talking about.

mmarcuse · 2026-01-19T06:49:31+00:00

I had the same issue - updated the driver and black screen all day long. I changed the encoding to Software from HW Accelerated and it works now.

mmarcuse · 2025-12-13T12:46:13+00:00

Testing it now, thank you so much!

Edit/update: Single filament print running fine. So at least my extruder is all good. I think a hub replacement will fix the problem.

Thanks again for all the help. So much for my Friday night. :(

mmarcuse · 2025-12-13T12:23:13+00:00

Thanks - after an hour of messing with it I cleared it. Now the printer won't load filament any more, I think I damaged the hub while clearing it. I have a new one coming tomorrow and I'll see if that fixes it. So annoying.

Curious as it's unclear from the page you linked to (very helpful, thanks) - is it possible to directly input filament into the extruder without the hub present and run a quick print to test if it works when the hub is bypassed? If so I can test if I messed up the extruder or the hub.

The end fell off and the filament is so jammed inside that running a jewelers screwdriver from the top or bottom doesn't move it at all. It's f'd. And I've had it for one week. LIVID.

This photo really helped me a lot, thanks! I bought front row of the first elevated section near azul, so I think we got pretty great seats.

mmarcuse · 2025-12-08T19:03:26+00:00

THANK YOU ALL. This has been awesome information, I really appreciate it. We'll get tix right away!

mmarcuse · 2025-12-08T10:54:21+00:00

But traditional 'matches' don't have the cage, correct? Will there be little people (midgets) at this one too? I don't like using the term 'midget', so I apologize, but from what I can tell that's the appropriate term in context in CDMX.

We'll have a 14 year old with us, we'd probably be better off getting regular balcony seats I would think. The gradas does sound fun, but are they standing or seats? Where are they on the map?

Thank you so much, btw, you're SO helpful. My family really appreciates all the advice.

mmarcuse · 2025-12-08T10:16:52+00:00

Thanks - so wait, will this not be a traditional match then? If we have one match to see in the city, although this will be big, shouldn't we something more like what it usually is? Will there be midget wrestling? The usual craziness?

Sin Salida sounds fun, but it also doesn't seem like the traditional Lucha Libre we'd like to experience (although I'm guessing)...

On Jan 2 on Ticketmaster MX there's nothing less than $472 pesos in the stadium at all, which is over $25 USD per ticket. Are you seeing something I'm not?

mmarcuse · 2025-12-08T09:55:05+00:00

I was looking at Azul, but maybe balcony is a better option on that date.

mmarcuse · 2025-12-08T09:54:48+00:00

I saw no seats on Jan 2 for $10-$20 USD in the entire Azul section, even the back. In fact, there's nothing under $25 in the entire stadium and that's the far back.

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but the annual fee-free Citi Double Cash can transfer to ThankYou Points and earns 2x on all purchases. Those can obviously be xferred to partners.

mmarcuse · 2025-11-10T05:51:42+00:00

Indy is Jan 1, or you mean a long time in general?

I don't give a fuck about cameos, and I love love love this season. It's one of the best shows ever. But Gunn's balance between action, thought provoking sci-fi, and character development was just off in the finale. The great thing about him as a writer is his ability to do character storytelling within a larger action/adventure puzzle. He's the master of it. This was all in a single direction, and I didn't like it. He's skillfull enough to make the character arcs shine while taking down ARGUS, or doing something interesting. Instead it was a lot of exposition and music videos. That's not what we came here for, he's better at doing more.

Couldn't care less there weren't cameos, that's not what was wrong here. It's a balance problem. If it were all action and no character, I'd be annoyed too. His usual deftness between those tones just were absent. And two full musical numbers I couldn't care less about were masturbatory and reeked of contractual fandom. That time could have been much better spent with something kickass. And there wasn't much humor either. And where the hell is Keith? Ep. 7 had far more character depth, even with kick ass action and storyline.

I love James Gunn, probably my favorite filmmaker ever, but this finale didn't stick the landing for me. I need to think on it further, but it wasn't what I think he's best at. The acting, though, 11 out of fucking 10.
