You could probably get a replacement even if the jar is completely empty. I used to work customer service in a grocery store. One time a guy returned an empty wine bottle. I gave him a full refund. Why? Because the company steals from their employees every single day. I’m just evening the playing field a bit. Just don’t be an asshole, and you’ll probably get what you want.

Wish I could but I can’t stand neither beans nor rice. Gotta have meat and green veggies in my meal.

That means that I only like chili without beans. At Asian restaurants I always ask for no rice and substitute noodles. The only beans I can tolerate are refried. So at Mexican restaurants I ask for no rice and double beans.

While we’re at it, I don’t like potatoes, either. I’ll eat them, but I won’t go out my way to order them, unless the alternative side dish selection is no better.

Edit: FWIW I’ll eat it all if I’m hungry, but none of these things would be my first choice.

I know and I don’t need any of that. Stremio replaces every streaming app except YouTube, so those are the only two apps I need on my TV. If it’s not on YouTube, it’s on Stremio, and vice versa.

Cause there’s nothing else to watch. YouTube has replaced TV in the average household.

Switch to Stremio (with Torrentio) and never worry about running out of storage space again. Everything is streamed directly to your TV, no downloading necessary. Browse like it’s Netflix and just pick something then watch it. Plus there’s support for home theater enthusiasts with features like HDR, Dolby Atmos, 4K, etc.

Meanwhile I’ve never seen one not abused! People love to take the books, but not return them. I know this because I’ve made multiple trips to restock my local little library and every single time I went, nearly every book was gone, every time. I never saw any of the books I added ever again.

So it’s an organization/brand? I thought it was just something that some homeowners like to do, not an official thing.

If they’re anything like the Verizon 5G gateways in the US that go in the window, then yes they’re great. So long as they use mmWave ultra wideband, and you have direct line of sight to the tower, they’re as good as a wired connection IMO. I get 1400Mbps both ways; literally maxes out my gigabit lines and I have to use wifi to hit those speeds. Latency is good enough to play competitive shooters too. I absolutely love it. And for only $50/mo it’s literally twice as fast as cable for half the price.

Disable that shit with O&O Shut Up 10. I also recommend StartAllBack and MSEdgeRedirect. Those three tools combined fix 90% of peoples’ issues with Windows 10/11. Gets rid of ads, AI, and other annoyances like trying to force Edge and Bing upon you.

Tell me about it. Took me 3x as many applications to land two interviews, and I wasn’t even looking for a specific field. My only requirement was $20/hr or more, the bare minimum needed to survive.

Finally settled on a $19/hr job after a six month struggle. I can’t afford groceries but at least I won’t go homeless.

Then I guess I’m never replacing mine. It’s not like HVAC technology has advanced much in the past 100 years, beyond the switch to R-134A from Freon. Most tech advancements are made on the thermostat-end. The system itself is ridiculously simple; usually just 3-4 wires (A/C on/off, Heat on/off, fan on/off, and sometimes a separate power wire).

Damn it, could*

Install MSEdgeRedirect to solve this problem.

I also recommend O&O Shut Up 10 and StartAllBack to disable ads/AI/bloat and restore removed Start menu functionality (like vertical taskbars). Also, always build the ISO in Rufus so you have the option to disable the Microsoft account requirement.

Alternatively you could* switch to Linux.

Downdetector was bought out by Ookla? When?

Yeah but I play at 4K and don’t accept anything less than 90-120 FPS (with DLSS, of course, since no GPU can handle native 4K gaming). Nothing from AMD can keep up with my 4090 in the RT department without sacrificing FPS, despite it being 2 years old now.

I wish I could switch back to AMD GPUs, but unfortunately I like Ray Tracing and RTX HDR way too much to go back. But in the 2000s and early 2010s AMD/ATi was my GPU maker of choice.

MsEdgeRedirect is the first thing I install (after Firefox) on a new Windows 11 build.

Fix the half-assed HDR support, and port the Nvidia App and Nvidia Control Panel. Then, and only then, will I finally switch.

It’s no different from installing different modules in Linux.

OP said they want to play multiplayer games, which are sometimes crackable, but more often not.
