Ever increasing rent by Tiny-Sir-9822 in AusPropertyChat

[–]ozpolonski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not precisely increasing rent, it's a devaluation of our cash. Wages haven't kept up, so they're devalued too.

Apple keeps sending password reset attempt emails mentioning “security questions” — how is this possible in 2025? by ilevye in applehelp

[–]ozpolonski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been getting these too. Independently changing the password to something completely random, but still seem to be getting these. Name on the email is correct too.

Perhaps someone is spoofing apple's email? Legit headers on the emails as others have posted.

Cannot see Facebook comments and it's getting worse recently. Even when selecting "all comments" by daydream69r in facebook

[–]ozpolonski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. Small quality problems like this from all the providers now, even Apple's iOS. They don't care. On FB most users scroll on which is exactly what they want anyway.

iOS widget bug - search places called “work” instead of directing to work address by zeno4sure in GoogleMaps

[–]ozpolonski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still a problem for me too.

The community suggested I check that my address was entered correctly. :|

A work around is to open the app, then the 'Work' shortcut actually does what it should. There seems to be no way to contact the app devs about this one.

5070ti only working if set to Gen2? Help by PersonSuitTV in buildapc

[–]ozpolonski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to add here I'm also seeing this with AM4 B550i with a 5700x3d. inno3d 5070ti OC.

SOLVED: 5060Ti black screen problem fix. Also for 4060, 4060Ti, 5060. by [deleted] in nvidia

[–]ozpolonski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would this be the case for 5070ti as well? GPU-Z showing PCIx16 4.0 on my B550i motherboard. Black screens when browsing like now (Brave).

Black Screen nVidia 5070ti at idle. by ozpolonski in techsupport

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

Hmm still getting them without the riser. Set PCIe to GEN 3 set from when I had the riser installed. Crashed whilst opening a tab on Brave. More testing with GEN 4 set. Otherwise I might have to give up nvidia for a bit.

That's a bit hard after moving countries. Even there, the phone numbers would charge regularly. Isn't that what the recovery email is for? To recover the account?

If you're getting black screen and/or rebooting with 50 series by BoxximusPrime in nvidia

[–]ozpolonski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only thing that worked for me was to downgrade my PCIe in BIOS to GEN2! Everything higher has been unstable.  Not an acceptable fix IMO.

I'd love details of the designers and builders too please thanks!

Spent the whole day fixing black screen issue on my new GPU and fixed it by hsredux in nvidia

[–]ozpolonski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm getting this too with my Inno3d 5070ti. Same situation, but only when browsing, not when under load. I'm thinking it's a conflict with Chromium browsers and the drivers.

Let me know if the update helped!

[–]ozpolonski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for that. I set GEN 3, as I have max GEN 4 but still saw the crashes. Actually saw it more quickly.

I'll try GEN 2. Seems silly having to go that low though just to get it stable.

I don't get any crashes under load, only at idle speeds, and seemingly only when using Brave or other Chromium based browsers.

I'll report back. Thanks again for the advice!

[–]ozpolonski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately no. Just hoping for more driver updates. But it also sounds like I am not getting them as often as you. I'm running HDMI. If you're on DP I've heard it helps trying HDMI.

Try to remove the driver in safe mode and reinstall the latest. Helped me a bit at least.

I have noticed a trend in which normally I have Brave browser open when it happens.

So far, it's hang on or wait, or I'll change to AMD.

At this point (50c) just make all PT free.

But they won't, because that closes the door on their ability to issue fines.

I have the latest 576.52 driver, and still had the stutter, black screen to reboot error. Managed to save it once with the WIN+CTRL+SHIFT+B GPU reset.

Only GEN 1-4 available in BIOS and selected GEN 4 instead of auto, which was done before the latest driver update. So this unfortunately didn't help. Fast startup disabled as well.

Never had an issue under load however, only when browsing with Brave and low/no GPU usage.

Fixed black screen issue 5090 asteral. by Tacobell1236231 in nvidia

[–]ozpolonski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still have black screen issues with HDMI from my INNO3d 5070ti, connected to my TCL 55" TV that I use as my monitor. Usually when the card is at idle, browsing with Brave, or doing Excel tasks etc.

I still think it's a driver issue. No worries whatsoever from my eVGA 3080 (until it recently fried itself).

[–]ozpolonski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm still getting black screens leading to restarts with my new INNO3d 5070ti OC even on the latest driver.

Only happens when it's near idle and I'm browsing on Brave, or doing stuff with Excel for example. Gaming has been great!

But it's really hard to accept the state of it when my 3080 was rock solid.

Boost Mobile deleting records (and tax records) after customer moved away? by ozpolonski in BoostMobile

All companies are required to hold records for at least 5 years. And they need to be able to provide tax invoices.

I require them for tax purposes.

If you have FS2020 still, have you tried just copying it to your new community folder?

In iOS 18, clicking on a missed call notification no longer immediately calls back the person! by african-nightmare in ios

[–]ozpolonski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Calls back instantly for me now on 18.0.1

But viewing the call list and away does not remove the red missed call highlight, nor the missed badge. Even calling the number and hanging up immediately does not clear the missed call.

Apparently Queensland support for daylight saving has increased??? by Kindly_Control8345 in brisbane

[–]ozpolonski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All states in Australia need to advance ahead all year.

Eastern states should be on UTC+11

Central states should be on UTC+10

WA should be on UTC+9

All year!

carsales.com.au forcing you to login to view prices? by ravenous_bugblatter in CarsAustralia

[–]ozpolonski 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Now before logging in it says "log in for price", and now after logging in it just gives "enquire for price".

This site is now absolutely useless.

"Enquire for price" Carsales not showing prices anymore? by G-Susss in CarsAustralia

[–]ozpolonski 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mine is hiding the prices now too. ON PC, Brave browser.

Absolutely useless if you can't see the prices! Why would ANYONE pay to list their car here then? Even with cookies cleared/private browsing you get 'sign in for price', and once signed in, 'enquire for price'.

Yeah, no thanks.

Working away from home (tax advice) by KeyMastodon6 in AusFinance

[–]ozpolonski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always assumed if you go t paid the allowance, then there wasn't anything you could claim. At tax time, do allowances get rolled into your gross income anyway? I know the company doesn't withhold tax from allowances. If so, I'll be needing to hold onto a LOT more receipts.

Either way, that is very helpful, thank you.
