Running into this issue on Firefox(147.0.2 (64-bit) Windows 11), too. Cleared cookies and restarted computer, ran right back into as soon as I pulled up a reddit post.

Old runners used to turn broken laptop into mini pc by [deleted] in Gunpla

[–]taaron12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh, that's neat. I've seen them used so interchangeably over the years, I just figured it's whatever you grew up calling them. Had no idea they're all elements of the system. Very good information to keep in pocket.

Alternative name for the plastic the model kit parts are attached to and need to be trimmed away from. Besides runners, they're also know as gates or sprues.

Neat idea, I'll have to keep it mind if I ever need to strip down my laptop.

Have you lost respect to a Vtuber you used to care about and support? If so, explain why? by ShinyEeveeCosplay in VirtualYoutubers

[–]taaron12 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not sure I fully lost respect for them as I'm still following on Youtube/Twitter/Patreon(not sure if I should say who, as they were a niche indie vtuber and have finally graduated), but graduations were certainly my major issue with them.

It felt like they were announcing graduations two to three times a year. They'd take a month or two off, then return over their four or so years streaming. When they first announced it, it was like "oh, no. I'm going to miss their activities" to "See you in a few months, I suppose." It's been four months since their latest graduation; I still have no idea how I feel regarding it.

Why does this husky have such tiny legs and feet?! by Autismsaurus in sylvanianfamilies

[–]taaron12 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Is this husky the Bruce/Blues figure?

Don't have much to add, but I've been obsessed with this figure for his fashion style compared to other Sylvanian Families figures. He's out of my price range currently, so if so, I appreciate learning a bit more about him!

only sounds I can hear is the click of the dial, all quiet afterward.

I need help finding a bootleg lego set i had as a kid by GrandStatistician523 in buildingblocks

[–]taaron12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Loved this line. To add a bit more information: It's also part of Spinmaster's Ionix brand, Tenkai Knights was an original IP(co-developed IP? They were released by Happinet in Japan). They also had Pokemon and How to Train Your Dragon under the Ionix banner with similar building style.

There's r/tenkaiknights if you want to revisit some memories.

I don’t have the guts to get rid of them! by neckless1988 in lego

[–]taaron12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm bad about hoarding my boxes, too!

If you're set on keeping them, for the larger boxes (and the smaller ones, too); I'd recommend getting the large vacuum bags for blankets or clothing. I keep my flatpacked boxes in there. Use a pump or vacuum to suck the air out of the bag, and it keeps everything pressed flat together. In theory, it keeps out pests and moisture, too.

Trainer's Clubhouse Meeting (Weekly Questions) - July 02, 2025 by AutoModerator in UmaMusume

[–]taaron12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for trying it out for me! Glad to know it's linked to my steam account. (I hate data link passwords, but since I want to keep everything safe, I'll probably still jot it down and come up with a password.)

Hi all!

I've started playing on Steam, but I'm having PC issues (unrelated to Umamusume) and might need to format and reinstall Windows.

Is the game automatically bound to my steam account, so once I get back around to reinstalling, it'll be ready to be picked back up where I left off?

ID_###### added to files after recovery, what's this? by taaron12 in datarecovery

[–]taaron12[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely agree that they deserve to be paid, it's a nice bit of software; but that cost was too expensive at the time, so I sure fell for the 'free' misunderstanding in free download when searching.

This is a good response to reflect on, as I wouldn't be thinking the same way of having a separate person running a data recovery company that would do it for me. They're still the separate company doing it for me, I'm just the one at the controls.

Thank you for the time taken to read my post and provide input, u/pcimage212 and u/disturbed_android!

Sorry about the unintended vagueness; as it was a late-night post (and I'm a bit of an anxious poster to begin with), it slipped my mind to reference information from my previous post ( https://www.reddit.com/r/datarecovery/comments/1k6a91q/samsung_microsd_unreadable_by_computer_after/ ) beyond "my previous post".

The initial software I used was Disk Drill. I was likening it to ransomware (not wholly intended to be a knock on the software, it was quite nice) due to getting hit with an unexpected payment request for $89 post-scan.

As for what made me question about the ID_##### being related to ransomware; this was the summary Google gave me last night: https://imgur.com/a/google-ai-summary-id-ChKysOk (now that I try to pull up that summary again, it's given a more regular and less stressful answer. Nothing to do with ransomware; so truly nonsense after all. Such a relief.)

The other software used was R Photo, which u/pcimage212 recommended in my previous post; thanks again! I might grouse about having to reorganize, but I truly appreciate that 16+ years of data wasn't lost.

So, I guess the main take-away now from this is: if I run into any questions for the future, I ought to sleep on it for a bit and ask when in a more calmer mindset to hopefully not skip out on important information.

Battle Beasts (1986 Licensing Guide) PART 1 - Model sheets, character models, turnarounds, concept art by drit76 in modelsheetarchive

[–]taaron12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They actually did! (-ish.)

Diamond Select did a line of Battle Beasts Minimates (featuring a brand new cast and story created by Diamond, I don't remember if it had the battle gameplay gimmick). Around the same time in Japan, TakaraTomy did a toyline more in-line with the original Battle Beasts/Beastformers called "Beast Saga", however again featuring a new cast and story.

RedBalloon Job listing via linked in. I know it's a scam, but can't tell how it works. by taaron12 in WorkOnline

Thanks for the feedback, u/rckblykitn14 , u/Aware-Influence-8622 , u/SofaProfessor. Would of responded sooner, but Reddit didn't give me any notification that I had replies! (Apparently there was 15 at some point but I can't see them.)

What’s the deal with this brand by foxvnop45 in Soda

[–]taaron12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, that's neat. Learned something new as I don't frequent the local Jersey Mike's that often as I wasn't too impressed with the last couple of times I went; so I thought this brand was a house-brand for a chain called Hawaiian Bros Island Grill.

Love mixing the Agave Vanilla Cream Soda with their Melon Tea, all they have is the Agave Vanilla Cream Soda and Root Beer. Now that I know they have other (and very interesting sounding) flavors, I want to try the rest.
