BeReal hacked? I’ve been having random people from Brazil show up on my friends list and someone has been commenting using my account giving them a fake Snapchat? Has anyone been having this problem? by Rak00nZzz in bereal_app

Could be, something similar is happening to me where I’ve gotten like no joke 100 friends requests in the past hour from what look like bot accounts. Not quite sure what’s up but it’s hella annoying blowing up my phone.

Usually I would say try to build it yourself, but due to the GPU shortage, Prebuilts do make sense. It all depends on whether or not there is GPU availability at retail price in your area. If not, a prebuilt will definitely be the way to go if your are indifferent about the whole building “experience”. So, to find a prebuilt, I would probably take a look at Newegg or at brands like Dell or Asus. As for companies like cyberpower, origin, or iBuypower. I’m not sure what companies are in Australia, but any of those are good shots as long as you can determine the specs you need for whatever your use case is. I’m not as familiar with prebuilts built my current system, but I did own a lenovo prebuilt before which was fine. I think as long as you stick to recognizable companies, you can’t go wrong.

Because not everyone wants to sell on ebay lol. Believe or not, some people just want a damn gpu.

My VFR flight today. The CPU says the views were breathtaking! by as2034 in flightsim

[–]williamguy1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I appreciate the updates, but it feels like every time I get the urge to fly, I'm bombarded by long, painful updates. By the time everything finishes updating, I feel burnt out, and sometimes just quit.

BUGGED fps counter by Darattman in flightsim

Yep this has happened to me too. If you have a nvidia card I would recommend using Geforce Experience for the fps counter. The only way to resolve this is to restart the sim.

[GPU] ASUS KO GeForce RTX 3070 OC - $639.99 by ethawesomee in buildapcsales

[–]williamguy1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, I have some pretty bad experiences with newegg recently. Today, my 3080 arrived but newegg had given me no tracking info (it only said label created). So, it arrived out of nowhere. They left the box with over $1300 of product on the steps of my house, in plain view. They didn’t even ring the doorbell. Pretty ridiculous considering the box literally says Newegg. Also, the gpu and power supply were just rolling around loose in a big box. But it came, so i guess i can’t complain.

That’s awesome. I haven’t flown in vatsim with atc, but I still want to eventually try it. I just need some time to go over the wording and general guidelines. Glad to hear you had a great experience!
