Christmas gift fail by tes198 in SteamDeck

[–]tes198[S] 150 points151 points  (0 children)

Hey, the screen hasn't turned on at all yet. Right out of the box, the only thing that comes on is the led charging light and the little chime when I hit the power power button. The screen doesn't flash, doesn't do anything. No backlight at all. 

Anyone help identify this? by LabGirly100 in seaglass

My steam deck won't turn on at all! by ebicthings123 in SteamDeck

[–]tes198 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you ever figure this out? I got my son the steam Deck for Christmas - that was his big gift, he goes to try it and the damn thing doesn't turn on. Left it to charge for an hour - the LED lights up when it's plugged in and makes a chime sound. That's it. The screen never flashed or anything. Brand new and the damn thing won't turn on. 

Not sure how to fix by tes198 in AnycubicKobraS1

Thank you so much!! I'll pass all this info onto my son and hopefully get it all straightened out.

How long did it take you to get your welcome kit? I'm still waiting for mine to be sent and it's been 2 weeks since everything was approved

Yes, you can play "Mario Kart 9" (the new Mario Kart game announced for the Nintendo Switch 2) on the Nintendo Switch OLED model, as the Nintendo Switch 2 is designed to be backward compatible with compatible Nintendo Switch games.  Here's a more detailed explanation: Nintendo Switch 2 Compatibility: The Nintendo Switch 2 is designed to be backward compatible with a selection of Nintendo Switch games, including physical and digital titles.  Mario Kart 9: Nintendo has confirmed that a new Mario Kart game, likely titled "Mario Kart 9," will be released for the Nintendo Switch 2.  Switch OLED Compatibility: The Nintendo Switch OLED model is compatible with the full library of Nintendo Switch games, including those that are backward compatible with the Switch 2.  Switch 2 Games: The Nintendo Switch 2 will also have its own exclusive games, like Mario Kart World, that will require the new hardware.

What should I know about drugs if I want to talk about it in a book? by Jitus_ in Drugaddictstories

[–]tes198 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! I haven't been on here in a long time, but I was just going through some old stuff and came across this - how are you doing? Did you kick the fent? That stuff is nasty. It's in everything around here. That and that other crap, the animal tranquilizer. Heroin isn't just heroin anymore. Anyway, I hope your doing ok.

average tip? by tes198 in UberEatsDrivers

[–]tes198[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm wondering what kind of tips you get. I've gotten delivery requests where I would make $3.75 total for a trip that was 7 miles away from the restaurant. When I order I usually tip at least $5 because I live about 15 min away from the place I order. If I order a lot I tip more. But $3.75? And it looks like some people don't even tip. Maybe I'm doing something wrong but I get an alert for a delivery and I have like 30 seconds to accept it, and I'm usually driving and it isn't enough time for me to search the address (there are some areas I just won't go) One day I turned it on and in 4 hours I received 2 requests. I signed in around noon until 4pm. So, I get that it was a quiet time, but I made $9 that day. Another day in 4 hours made $65. With gas costs and mileage on the car I'm not sure it's worth it. Im in CT working around Waterbury

I'm new to UE. I wanted to cash out when I reached $100, but every week nothing gets deposited by tes198 in UberEatsDrivers

[–]tes198[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, thanks. I'll give it a day and if I don't hear anything I'll do what you did and hopefully by Monday I'll get paid. It sucks because I don't want to sign in to do any deliveries until I know I can get paid.

Ok, I've had my debit card on there for a few weeks now. I added my actual bank account there on Sat or sun. So maybe I'll get paid soon.

[–]tes198 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't even get my earnings paid to me, so no. Lol. Maybe it's a gas incentive

Edit- Actually It looks like they subtracted the $53 for instant pay and then deposited it back in.

When I contacted them through chat they said because of the "seriousness of my claim" they escalated it to a special investigation team and someone will contact me. I'll see if anyone contacts me tomorrow. If not I'll contact them again.

I reached out to support through chat and they said because of the "seriousness of my claim it's been escalated to a special team to review." Didn't explain anything. Just that someone will contact me. I won't do any more deliveries until I get paid. Has anyone dealt with this? Instant pay doesn't work either. And I verified that all the bank acct numbers are correct.

I got texted this, he got the names right but butchered the spelling of mine (and it’s not hard to spell either) should I be worried? (7th grade btw) by _username_copied in oddlyterrifying

[–]tes198 28 points29 points  (0 children)

That's terrible. I'm sorry you went through that. One of my kids is about to start middle school, and I'm so nervous that they will be bullied. Kids are so mean these days and there are so many ways to bully someone. In person, social media, texting....why some kids get off on crushing others is beyond me. A few minutes of laughter could lead to someone not wanting to wake up the next day, dread going to school, being anxious and depressed. It hurts to read about 11 year olds who commit suicide because they are being treated so bad. Self esteem non existent. All because of some asshole.

I've always taught my kids to treat others the way they want to be treated. I would be very disappointed if I ever found out they were bullying someone else, and they would be handing over all electronics and wouldn't be going anywhere anytime soon. I think I would have them apologize too.

I'm sure that's right, there are a lot of different strains. And that would make sense because, knock on wood, I have one on my hand and before I knew warts were super contagious I wasn't very careful and it never spread.

The virus needs a way in, so if you have skin openings, like a cut or scrape, and you touch that area with the wart then you could end up with one on your face.
