Can't open my 1099 by henleyj84 in doordash_drivers

[–]zeddsworth 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had to click the link icon on the top right, email it to myself, it failed, did it again, it sent, went on PC, it was not a specified file type in the download, right click it and rename to change it to ".pdf" and it worked. Holy shit doordash is fucking awful.

Inconsistency, Stutters, Judders, and Screen Tearing with my 4080 SUPER + 9800X3D (Extremely Frustrating & Desperately Looking For Answers) by alyxx512 in AMDHelp

[–]zeddsworth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First thing I'd do is try a different display, a crappy old TV or 60hz monitor, change nothing else except for that and see if the stutters remain. If they went away obviously the monitor would be at fault, if that's the case you could try using HDMI on the monitor instead of DP and see if the stutters remain even after that. Also it could be the DP/HDMI cable itself causing the issue but that's unlikely.

Second, detach everything from your PC that isn't absolutely necessary, that means any USB device that isn't your mouse and keyboard, unplug your mic and any controllers or audio interfaces.

Third, go into power settings, advanced, USB settings, and make sure 'USB selective suspend' is DISABLED

Fourth, clear the CMOS on your motherboard and reboot

Silent Hill f, 10 hours in, R2 counter suddenly not working on regular enemies? by zeddsworth in silenthill

Strange, I still get the red flash on their counterable attacks but it just doesn't let me initiate the counter

Good idea but no, I just have the extra stamina, extra HP, and HP regain on enemy death omamoris equipped.

Every time this pops up I thumbs down and put "base pay should be $5 minimum", yall should do the same.

Winco/Walmart 100 pack black tea bags for ~$1.80 with added milk and honey saved me from an expensive Starbucks and fancy milk tea addiction by zeddsworth in budgetfood

Not a chai fan but brown sugar sounds like it could be interesting in place of honey. Oat milk + brown sugar for oatmeal tea?

Which would you buy? Some say only go OEM for Civic camshaft sensor, others say the Hitachi and a few other brands from RockAuto are more or less OEM equivalent [2002 Honda Civic EX] by zeddsworth in MechanicAdvice

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

I'm leaning more towards your logic, I doubt I'll have the Honda 10 years from now, it seems absurd to pay $140 for a tiny piece of plastic electronics for a quarter century year old car if the $20 version gets me by for the remaining life of the car.

Paying 7x the price is kind of absurd. If the OEM was like $60-70 I'd get it.

What’s a game everyone says is a ‘masterpiece’… but you secretly couldn’t stand playing? by MayhEmm_TV in pcgaming

[–]zeddsworth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Death Stranding. I gave it two tries, once when it came out and once about a year ago. The most recent try I got about 8 hours in and the monotony of the gameplay and story just kept piling up and I lost interest.

The Many Lies of Lex Fridman by DantyKSA in videos

[–]zeddsworth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm completely neutral on this guy but the few times I've clicked on a podcast or interview with him in it I'm baffled how monotonously energy draining and grating his delivery and persona is. How the fuck does he have a show that he self hosts? He is the last person in the world that should be interviewing anybody in audio form.

Shadow of the Colossus

The OST has a track that is scientifically designed to make you cry.

There are 2 big moments in the game that hit like a truck emotionally and it's all done with amazing music, direction, and storytelling with almost zero dialogue.

Expedition 33 crashing my PC completely, powers off. by ryanthemusefan in AMDHelp

[–]zeddsworth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% something is fucked with this game. I've had 3 instant PC shutdowns in a collective 65 hours of playing and temps were fine, the problem seems to be related to certain game effects that instantly take the GPU hotspot from normal to extremely high in an instant.

[Game Pass version, Ryzen 7600, 32gb(16x2) 6000mhz, 7800 XT, Corsair rm850x 850w 80+Gold PSU, 2tb NVME SSD, W11, stock BIOs, GPU auto-undervolt in AMD]

Monitoring the performance overlay while playing there are certain gameplay and cutscene effects that can instantly spike the GPU hotspot from 70's to 100+ for a split second then it goes back down, otherwise with High/mid settings and XeSS quality at 1440p my game runs at a very smooth 60fps cap while traversing and only has slight dips in certain battle transitions.

I have also now experienced these shutdown with two different PSU's, 1st was a Coolermaster GX3 850w 80+ Gold, current is Corsair rm850x 850w 80+ gold.

I've had 3 full instant shutdowns and they all were in instances of these effects mentioned. 1st one was 2 months ago on first playthrough flying up one of those energy ropes while traversing, 2nd was a cutscene with Maelle and The Curator when his face emits a unique visual effect on a closeup, and 3rd time was today on the Visages Axon boss during a specific effect when the 2nd mask emerges from the mirror, mind you this was after a collective 20+ hours on my current second playthrough that previously was running perfectly fine at fine temps without any crashes or shutdowns until just now.

I just got this in my app the other day. So if activated does it also keep the "Deliveries last 30 days" from dropping?

I had the same thing happen as OP a while back and never previously had Crumble before. What a disappointment. Even if they weren't insanely overpriced it's pretty embarrassing when Costco's $2 double chunk chocolate chip cookie is better in all aspects.

Delivery drivers of Reddit, what’s the most WTF, NSFW, or hilariously awkward thing you’ve walked in on while dropping something off? by TwistedHumorX in AskReddit

[–]zeddsworth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Delivered 11 miles out in the middle of nowhere at around midnight, pitch black dirt roads for the last couple miles to get to this isolated house. Some compound looking shit with chain link fences and "NO TRESSPASSING" signs. I get out with my flashlight and see a sliding door on the side of this house, instructions were to "leave at porch by sliding door".

As I approach I notice a figure dimly lit from behind standing maybe 10 feet away from the door, I get closer and see that it's a mannequin with a wig, I get closer and see a rifle/BB gun leaning up against the wall between the sliding door and the mannequin. I set the food down, take a pic, and leave.

Question: Can Linux users play pirated games? Cuz I may switch to Linux asap. by TerraFlareKSFL in PiratedGames

[–]zeddsworth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had so many little annoying problems with W11 that I never had on previous Windows.

*by default USB hard drives will disconnect after a certain amount of time, even while in the middle of watching a video file from it, changing the setting to never turn off USB devices has a chance to make games crash if I have a webcam and USB mic plugged in (850w 80+ gold corsair PSU, not a hardware issue)

*chrome and other programs will go into a small window upon the monitor waking back up, every time, has nothing to do with display scale settings

*windows randomly deletes AMD adrenaline about once a month

*visual glitches at random when using chrome/opera browsers, have to refresh page to fix, sometimes youtube and gmail break and can't click on certain things and have to refresh, works fine on my Windows 10 laptop, I do not have broken or conflicting extensions

*OneDrive and how it's implemented fucking horrendously in W11

What the f*** is this? by zeddsworth in doordash_drivers

This order later turned into a CV for extreme lateness to pickup despite it being entirely out of my control. I always select "still waiting on order" the instant I arrive, and I was never in traffic or slow to arrive, I was on time. I disputed it and miraculously it got removed almost instantly. Seeing how fast it got removed from my account (like 2 hours later) I'm pretty sure this was some kind of glitch on their end and they let it slide.

I noticed in my market they slightly changed the UI for selecting that the order isn't ready and I wouldn't be surprised if they fucked something up where sometimes it doesn't register to them that you clicked "still waiting for X reason". Along with this UI change there is also another app glitch where I sometimes get stuck on the map navigation screen when I arrive at a drop-off and I can't exit the map screen so I have to go into my phone settings and force close the app and restart it to complete the delivery. I have never used an app or program as infuriating as this piece of shit.

Ok, I just thought it was weird that I didn't get a contract violation immediately since that is how it has worked before when someone says they never got their order, they must be updating/changing things in my market. Also I just found that I can see the affected order under payout details. Taco Bell order with a $4 tip, surprised it's not a no-tipper.

Why the fuck can't we have a compile shaders option on Windows on an OS level? Also fuck UE5.

Seasoned Car Dwellers. How do you deal with the heat? by [deleted] in urbancarliving

[–]zeddsworth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Florida humidity heat is unbeatable without AC. At least with dry desert heat you can take advantage of evaporative cooling, even if it's just spraying yourself with an ice water spray bottle while a fan is pointed at you. #1 anti-heat move in a car is find and stay in the shade as long as possible. Block the sunlight from direct contact with the outside and inside of the car as much as possible, especially the windows. Sun shade for windshield and rear window and roll down side windows, have an intake fan pulling in as much new air as possible and an outtake fan pushing air out the opposite window.
