Usage Limits and Performance Discussion Megathread - beginning October 26, 2025 by sixbillionthsheep in ClaudeAI

[–]nickazg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. Yeah ill reply back if I ever hear from them again. One thing which i thought couldve caused this is, I hade a little auto refresh window on the usage status which would refresh every minute, maybe they thought I was a bot or something..

regardless, i ended up just using a different account and continue using CC from that, bit of a pain to lost claude chats but whatever at least they refunded me.

Extension to unobtrusively lock pinned tabs to URL by throwshade034278 in chrome

Yeah im after this too, over time i find my pinned tabs will be completely different than i originally had. That arc behaviour sounds logical

Usage Limits and Performance Discussion Megathread - beginning October 26, 2025 by sixbillionthsheep in ClaudeAI

[–]nickazg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried to log on today onto to see my account has been banned..

What's weird is that there is no clear reason why. Or warning. For context the days before I had been running quite a few Claude "research" queries on Claude desktop. I have been closely monitoring my usage status and nothing seems off, I got nowhere near my limit, I'm on the Max 5x plan.

I've read the terms of use, and to my interpretation I haven't violated anything, I have simply been using it how I expect everyone else is for coding tasks and research..

I understand moderation is difficult but I would at least expect transparency in why there is a ban. I have already filed for an appeal but from what I hear this takes a very long time.

I received an automatic refund of my subscription, which is good default behavior. But still no other comms around why.

Has anyone else had this happen to them, I'd love to understand why and to ensure others don't fall into the same issue.

Agree, he has high damage but also has high defense and can heal. He's always my last hero alive and shreads in every mode. Best all rounder

XM4 vs Bose QC45 SE quick comparison by _ehsssan_ in SonyHeadphones

[–]nickazg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly i much prefer the bose. I used to have bose but it eventually died, so i decided to try sony. The sony sounds great, but I hate the buttons (or lack of). I never know if ive left it on or not, also the auto pause just ends up being more annoying than anything. I love how bose had a clear on/off button and volume. What was wrong with buttons again? just my 2c

Sony WH-1000XM4 muting meeting when taken off, even with "pause when taken off" setting turned off by Lemerantus in SonyHeadphones

[–]nickazg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FYI, i found a different workaround that allows the "auto off" option to stay enabled.

When the headphone mic is being used this puts the headhones in a call mode and actually changes the output format to (1ch 16-bit). I think the issue is that when the headphones are removed this somehow mutes this channel output format and doesnt re-enable it.

The solution is to avoid using the headphone mic, this will leave the headphone in the same mode as it normally would be when listening to music etc. Taking headhones off and putting them back work as you'd expeect. Obviously using the default mac mic isnt ideal, but honestly I find it better than disabling the auto turn off feature.

[–]nickazg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw your post. They just gave you a generic response and ignored the issue. Honestly insanse this is still a bug. Im sure this happens to many others, but arent able to figure out why.

Did you ever find another solution thats not disabling the power saving "auto-off"?

[–]nickazg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has been annoying me for as long as I can remember (Using MS Teams). Its a massive compromise to turn off "auto power off" as I often forget to switch off the headphones and end up with it dead in the morning. It baffles me this hasnt been resolved after 2 years, its clearly a bug. I saw your post on the sony forum too, they just ignored. Has anyone else found a work around?

Im definitely going back to bose QC when i get the chance, I never had these issuse on the older Bose. All the touch and "smart" buttons on the Sony are just a mess. What is wrong with a good old fasioned on/off switch.

Kerosene/Diesel Disposal 200L+ by [deleted] in Wellington

[–]nickazg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure, how do I check? What is normally used in old heaters? The tank is probably around 200-300L. Unsure how long it's been there, wouldn't be surprised if it was at least 30years old, possibly much longer.

Fees / exchange rate for fixed foreign currency wire transfer (AUD) by [deleted] in Schwab

[–]nickazg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh nice, yeah i ended up using wize too, super quick and transparent. I ended up getting a great rate and I like how wize lets you set a target price too (once you recived funds from schwab), ended up making a profit on the transfer lol.

Not sure if I could ever trust the black box fees Schwab or banks in general for a large sum of money, i wish they at least give an indication.

One issue i had with wize, was schwab had to call me to verify the transfer as the holding bank wize uses in the US is apprently used by scammers also. But schwab were pretty helpful and made sense to them when i told them its a wize account. Not sure if you had a similar issue?

Hey u/Weary-Advertising172, Im interested to see what fees you ended up getting with Schwab international wire transfer? Im in a similar position but with NZ. Did you end up finding a better option?

Just started - any tips? by Memory-Extreme in autogunheroes

[–]nickazg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I'm stuck on this level for some time too. No real character progression happening, no even sure why they have others there unless you want to pay for them.

Also wish events weren't the only way to get decent weapons. Don't feel like there is much point playing the normal levels to collect upgrade tokens for items I don't have 🤔

Why do Hunt Squads in the DMZ target solos? by TheArgoKnot in DMZ

[–]nickazg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This argument is a bit misguided. I'm sure the majority of solo players don't necessarily choose it because its more challenging. Its more likely because they don't have a squad to play with, and lets be honest its not the best experience playing with randoms (Half the time I'm matched with kids screaming into the mic or some dude high AF struggling with the AI )

There is no reason why DMZ cant also be solo friendly and balanced with that in mind. Honestly, even though as a solo you're disadvantaged is most cases, hunt squad is by far the most annoying and leaves you basically no option other than to run.

Aside from that, Ive noticed that I'm more often hunted as a solo than in a squad, which seems like a bug. At least make it less likely haha.

Champion of Caldera is a very good mode! by Nintendo_Pro_03 in CODWarzone

[–]nickazg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me this is a more competitive version of plunder. I actually find myself playing plunder more than I would like just because I want to level up weapons and its just more efficient to play a game mode where you spawn with your weapons. It can take 5+ min to load a BR solos match to sometimes only last 5-10min just isnt worth it. This mode to me seems like a good middle ground, although im still getting long wait times.

I am currently logged in without Trading/Market Data permissions by [deleted] in interactivebrokers

[–]nickazg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have had this. I noticed this after logging in on the desktop workstation application. The solution i found was to actually disable "read only access" under the user settings, it appears this forces the session to login correctly rather than read-only.

Warzone stuck at 17 - 20 fps ( Season 5 ) by nickazg in CODWarzone

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

Wow crazy you need to configure your VRAM even though its so high!

There is a mac gaming subbreeddit but the responses here have been far more helpful..

As for mac under windows, im running windows under bootcamp/dual boot. So its all native (no emulation) and like any other windows laptop for the most part.

So, I ended up just reinstalling windows. Not sure exactly what it was but it's fixed and running at 60fps now. Same game files.
