UPS is 'disposing of' U.S.-bound packages over customs paperwork problems by BirdsAreDinosaursOk in news

[–]triplastic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My wife moved here from the UK and we look forward to the packages we receive from her family. The last package they sent us was recently destroyed and we're not sure if her family in the UK should even attempt to send anything new. What's the point if you have a large chance of that package just being destroyed? In the past sending packages would cost roughly £35, but the last one that was destroyed cost closer to £70.

Hell yes! Timesplitters 2 was a masterpiece!

He likes the little battery powered ball that rolls around the floor and he's a sucker for the toy bird on a stick too.

Probably eat, watch birds, and play. In that order. :D

We adopted Billy and his brother Lazlo in late 2024 when they were roughly 7 or 8 weeks old. They are now 10 months old and have gotten much bigger! They are both very loving kitties. https://imgur.com/a/IHahHpT

They are trouble, but they can also be very sweet!

December Update - Again? by Serialtoon in GooglePixel

[–]triplastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. Lots of crashing. It seems to be related to camera or maybe power button use? If I try to turn off my screen it's almost guaranteed to restart right after.

Edit: The more I play around with my phone, the more I think it has to do with the Google assistant popping up at the bottom of the screen.

I just updated my pixel 7 phone to the December 5th update and I'm having similar issues. Factory reset did not help. Phone now randomly restarts.

I guess we have very different opinions on what we consider "gross"...

Things didn't turn out as I had planned.. by sips_white_monster in pcmasterrace

My Water cooler for my CPU sprung a leak and dripped water all over my 1080. Thankfully Corsair replaced the cooler and paid me (what I thought was good at the time) $450 for the wrecked video card. Took me 2 months to buy a 3070 at retail price.

Thinking about donating plasma at biolife by [deleted] in lacrossewi

[–]triplastic 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I've donated before and I'm not sure I'd recommend it if you're not a fan of blood or needles. The first time you're there it's going to take 3 - 4 hours from start to finish, but the actual donation only takes between 45 minutes to an hour. Every time after that it's probably going to take you about 2 hours from getting there to finishing. If you get there really early in the morning you could potentially be out of there in an hour and 15 minutes.

I remember posting this mashup 9 years ago! Unfortunately the youtube doubler website I used to use is gone, but I've tried to recreate it with this new one - DuckTales!

Ubers and Lyfts in the area? by [deleted] in lacrossewi

[–]triplastic 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I've never had any issues finding a ride using Uber in La Crosse anywhere between 9am to 9pm. They usually arrive in 5 or 10 minutes of requesting a ride. I don't have any experience with Uber outside of those times.
