My parents are close to 65 and completely out of touch. If you turn 65 during your next term you should be ineligible.

Release it on PC then. Enough with the console exclusivity just to bitch that the game isn’t selling well.

180% of $0 is still $0. Sorry EA fans.

I will, actually, give you that one. I was more thinking WoW and Overwatch but you’re right, D3 was a mess that they made fun eventually.

I’ve been hearing “but wait, Blizzard fixed it” for over half my life at this point. Never once was it true.

Dragon's Dogma 2 launches to "Mostly Negative" review bombing after microtransactions reveal, and man, what a bummer in c/games@sh.itjust.works

I’m not sure what you’re getting at. I bought every version of every game since the first one and pirated the Japanese versions before they were localized. G rank wasn’t something you had to pay for until the games I mentioned. It was either in the game or it wasn’t. I’m not interested in having an argument though so I’ll just see myself out of this weird pseudo-argument.

Gonna have to pay to skip cutscenes too. And SOS flares aren’t free but aren’t expensive either. Oof, we should be execs somewhere.

I didn’t have to pay for G-rank until Iceborne and Sunbreak. I’d like to go back to those days.

Oh no. We gotta stop giving them ideas.

I've been a fan of Monster Hunter since the PSP and somehow completely forgot that it was made by Capcom. I was already a bit peeved that they moved G-rank behind a paywall and a year of waiting but now I'm nervous that you may not be super far off. People already think that the game has a desire senser and with AI being what it is today it wouldn't be very hard to sell a 'premium carving knife' with charges on it to get that Gem or Plate you need to finish your set.

To whom it may yoho:

So I’ve got a linux server with Docker installed a a container with Deluge in it. I have 98 torrents currently in Active or Seeding status. My download and upload speeds are set according to my calculated rates for my speed test. Ports are set for incoming connections, that port is included in the Docker container config, allowed through the firewall on the server itself and forwarding set up on my router. I have 3 private trackers I’m testing with those 98 torrents and the torrents are a mix of high seeding demand torrents and just whatever I had sitting around. The only torrent out of 98 that are uploading anything is the Ubuntu torrent I’ve been using to see if it could be the private trackers.

Speed test:

Download speed is 347Mbps Upload speed is 23Mbps

DNS settings are set to use 75.75.75.75 and 76.76.76.76 and 8.8.8.8 on my router. My server is set to use the router as the DNS.

The 63430 port I’m using has been confirmed as open from external port checkers.

I have tried using qbitorrent on a separate machine and have been running into the same problems so it sounds like it’s a network-wide issue.

I am not behind a VPN (yet… though it sounds like it could be a requirement)

This is my home network and I own the Gateway so any ISP shenanigans would be from outside the home.

Does anyone have any suggestions? And is this the right place to ask?

Thank you in advance! I’m running out of hair to tear out!

Way late edit: In case anyone finds this in the future, my permissions were set incorrectly. The user that was running the torrent app didn’t have folder access…

Stripped Screw Hole in Ceiling Advice (i.imgur.com)
 

I was hanging a ceiling fan in this room when I discovered that the mounting screw holes in the electrical box are stripped. My dad has suggested using JB Weld putty, letting it cure, drilling it out with a small bit and then using wood screws. First time homeowner and have neither the confidence nor the expertise to completely replace the box. Is my dad’s route the best course of action or is it a waste of time and/or dangerous to go that route?
