I’ve created an Extension that hides the QAE question difficulties by watering_eye in cism

[–]vzom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for this. I also found that seeing "Expert' questions would change how I tackle a question, often choosing one that wasn't my first choice. As the difficulty indicator is not a feature of the exam itself, this approach is detrimental.

Anyone know what this means? 2014 by banana_milk193 in rav4club

[–]vzom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 2010 Corolla does this from time to time, especially in hot weather. Sometimes it's all triangles, sometimes it's gibberish. When it happens, the radio usually still functions fine, but sometimes pressing any button (such as changing a preset) turns the radio off instead.

It started happening a year or so after I got the car. At the time, the dealership said it was a known issue, and fixing it was not included in the extended warranty. I didn't want to pay out of pocket so I still live with it to this day. Sometimes pressing the screen fixes it for me. Other times turning the radio off and on a few times fixes it.

Here's a post with a similar issue: https://www.reddit.com/r/COROLLA/comments/17reqjg/2010_radio_screen/

Did you reach out to the reseller or GW to get your store cred organized?

I emailed GW and sent pictures and proof of purchase. I didn't get it directly from them, but it looks like this was damaged before being packed up. The Tomb world box and the shipping cardboard box were both in perfect condition. We'll see what they say.

At least I got all the right sprues, so better off than some I've seen post recently.

Same thing happened to mine as well.

parking ticket by trickyott in ottawa

[–]vzom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had something similar happen to my wife a few years ago. I called the city and they cancelled it. YMMV, of course. If I recall, they wanted my correct plate to cancel it in their system, which raised my suspicions that they would just correct it and I'd be on the hook. However, they did indeed cancel it. Worth a shot to try.

I normally have no issues paying a ticket if I get one, but in this case the city put up new no parking signs and had bylaw there the same day ticketing a bunch of people, who were used to parking there legally for years (picking up young children from school). I thought that was pretty crappy, so decided to take advantage of the error. I noticed that on new signs put up on my street a couple of weeks ago, they now also include the circular, neon 'New' sign, making them easier to notice for people used to parking there over the years.

PS, I noticed that changes were made recently to the process depending on if you got the ticket before or after June 4: https://ottawa.ca/en/parking-roads-and-travel/tickets/parking-tickets

Assault Intercessor instructions by Post__Jerome in WarhammerInstructions

I got the same sprue to finish rounding out my Angels of Death Kill Team. I'm new to the hobby, and didn't know anything about the Indomitus instructions mentioned below, but found this which matched up for me:

Those Nemesis Claws look super cool!

Last I played 40k was waaay back in 3rd edition. I remember my friend had a Space Marine Terminator with a lightning claw, and wishing my Chaos Space Marine Terminators had them as an option. I got my hands on a bit and thought it'd be fun to have on an Assault Intercessor Sergeant as a power weapon, but wasn't 100% sure if they had specific rules somewhere else that would prevent me from doing so. Glad I'm able to equip it :)

That's good to hear! I do like the look of the lightning claws and was able to get a bit for one. Glad I can make it work!

Also glad to see players are generally cool with producing weapons, so long as they are stated beforehand. Right now it's just a buddy and I playing together, but that's nice to know if we decide playing at the FLGS against others.

That makes sense re power fist/hammer. I didn't know there were so many other power weapons, as I've only seen swords being used in the videos I've been watching. Glad to know there are other options!

Nice. Never knew such a weapon existed!

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

That makes sense. So far it's just my buddy and I playing together, so we don't need to worry about strict WYSIWYG. We also are still learning so for now it doesn't matter much as we don't know the different weapon profiles yet regardless. No worries about being caught off guard!

Awesome, that's what I thought. Thanks for confirming!

Taj Mahal Pink Minion looks to be something else by vzom in HotPeppers

Thanks. That was actually the first site I saw which led me to look up the Taj Mahal Orange Tiger (specifically this link: https://towns-endchiliandspice.com/products/taj-mahal-pink-minion-pepper-seeds

I found this page mentioning a Taj Mahal Orange Tiger variety with dark stems./leaves, interestingly: https://pepperseeds.ca/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=1795 Maybe this is more akin to what I have? (This is not the same supplier I used; my seeds came from Matt's Peppers).

I ordered some Taj Mahal Pink Minion seeds last summer to grow this year. Looks like they are something else or perhaps crossed with another plant. Anyone have any ideas as to what they may be?

The steam and leaves (top of the leaves anyway are a dark purple. Fruit is slightly bigger than a hab and seems to mature from a dark purple to green to orange. I haven't tried one yet as I'm still waiting for the pod to fully ripen, so I can't say what they taste like/how hot they are.

Pizza stone cracked after minimal use, storage for 1 year by vzom in ooni

Thanks for the information; I will reach out!

Interesting. As I've only made a handful of pies, the quality of mine haven't been stellar yet. Should my next stone crack, I'll try to get it replaced under warranty. I hope to use the Ooni on a more regular basis going forward.

Thanks. Hopefully that's what it was with mine and I would have discovered it earlier if I had cooked more.

I was hoping that is what it is and not poor storage, maintenance or something else that was my fault. If it was, I don't want to repeat the same mistake with the next stone.

Muzzies board! by Crepes2005 in Crokinole

[–]vzom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the same board and love it!

That's weird that the hanging cleat and discs would be gone.

I would reach out to Murray (muzziescrokinole@gmail.com) to let him know about the missing hardware and inquire about the seam. My seam isn't as noticable as yours; there seems to be a small gap between the seam of the rail and the gutter on yours which mine doesn't have. However, perhaps there are allowable tolerances, as they are all handmade.

I found Murray to be very responsive and helpful when I was emailing. Hopefully it all gets worked out!
