The Official " I Got a Question but It's Not Super Important" Thread
- Thread starter Deleted member 3345
- Start date
So..... I've got a question about the old site but I don't want to go back there to login or anything, so I thought I'd ask it here incase anybody knew.
On this site, users can request a ban and request that their name be deleted/changed to "Deleted User 1234." Does that exist similarly on the old site? I hate making performative "PLEASE BAN ME" posts, I think they just bring up undo drama and I don't really feel like posting over there. Does anybody know if there's a feature or link on the site I can self-request that? If you don't want to reply in thread to avoid drama please DM me about it.
ALso I know that this site isn't the old site, but jsut... I know there's a lot of crossover here and there and the software is the same... so hoping someone may know.

Quick question: anyone agree that the new xbox phone application has ruined the touch screen input? I mean, it super unresponsive now and I have to try 3-4 time to swipe in any direction before it moves... also pressing A is not consistent as well. It used to be much better with the previous version. Anyone agreeing with this?
The new Destiny expansion, Beyond Light .. do we know generally what "size" expansion this is? Is this more Taken King size or Rise of Iron size?
Supposedly the transition to what would have been "Destiny 3" sized. They decided that instead of releasing a new game and splitting the playerbase again, that they'd turn Destiny 2 into the new game instead. So hard to tell...
Awesome!!You were right!!

APM MUSIC Sam Fonteyn - Spooky Scherzo
The last of the three APM songs I've re-uploaded. This one I fondly remember hearing in many Halloween episodes of Nickelodeon shows back in the 90s, such as...www.youtube.com
Spooky Scherzo by Sam Fonteyn!
The mystery is solved!! Apparently it was used in quite a few cartoons... .... and in toonstruck itself... 😅
It doesn't appear to be on spotify, but thankfully youtube has at least a couple of uploads of it! Thank you for searching, and pointing me in the right direction! After all these years... whew...
Now, there is a Ren and Stimpy playlist on Spotify that I'm gonna have to finish checking out see if there's any other good ones 😉
As with everything this year, I blame Trump and Covid-19. In that order.
Still though, if "up to 6mbps" is available why am I only getting 2
Pretty much a bit to byte unit conversion. 8 bits = 1 byte. Also Mbps is Megabits per second vs MBps which is Megabytes per second.
Why Is My Download Speed Slower Than the Internet I Pay For?
Your ISP advertises a 40 megabit per second connection, but that doesn’t look anything like the download speed you see when you’re grabbing a big file. What’s the deal? Are you not getting all the bandwidth you’re paying for?

Hmm, looks like I'll have to contact my ISP according to your link. Thanks!
Hey I'm working on a small electrical project, and I need to add some LEDs, would anyone here know a good recourse for learning how to wire LEDs in series or parallel?
The US Election OT is almost a thousand pages, damn.
I'm wondering why there hasn't been an OT2? I remember on the old forum we had to make one every 400 pages otherwise there could be bugs? And OT here are closed way before 1000 pages to make new ones. I'm just curious about why ^^;

They used to be closed around 20000 posts due to software inefficiency. They got terrible slowdown around that point.
Resetera mostly replaces OTs because the community wants a refresh and not because it's necessary for usage. It was discussed somewhere on the tech board.
Does anyone know of a site/service that compiles streaming services together?? Like, i would tell it that i have netflix and hbo and it would show me everything available to watch across both platforms? Or even just a site that tells me where particular movies are streaming on various services would be helpful..
Not sure about the first but https://www.justwatch.com is good for the latter, even tells you the price of streaming something if not on a subscription.
Is there a way, either natively or w/ google or something, to find all posts by a user in a particular thread?
Someone replied to me in the Xbox preorder thread with this link to a website that checks "walk in purchase only" stock at retailers like Target, Best Buy, etc. I repleid to the person saying "Thanks!" but... a month later I can't find the link to the site, or the post. It's too late to check my notifications, and the thread is 360+ pages long.
Any functionality like that? Like a "find all posts by [me] in [thread]" functionality?

It's a term used for serving seafood, like oysters. Rather than being fully shucked, they can be left in one half of the shell and eaten.
At least, I don't know of any other uses of the term. XD
How do I get a pop-up box to appear in Microsoft Excel before the user can edit/input data? I want to add a quick developer note so people don't do mad things.
The word 'duplicitous' popped into my head but I don't think that it precisely expresses what you had in mind. 'Agenda driven' and 'ideologically possessed' also came to mind. I can't think of a word or phrase which precisely encapsulates your example but I would be interested in knowing it if there is. The way things work, however, someone is likely to come up with one that catches on and enters the realm of accepted verbiage. I learnt a new word yesterday, for example, 'cuttlefishing'.
While you're probably looking for 'specious' or its synonyms....I like 'diplomacy' for the purpose.
...Or maybe, "ulterior motive".
As in, "He says it's about mental health, but his ulterior motive is just making more money."
is there a way to subscripe to threads without getting any notifications, every time a new post is made?
just so I can find all my favorite threads faster, when there weren't any new posts in a couple of hours or days.
"watching" a thread gives me to many notifications.. :/

Change your settings so you don't get any alerts/emails on watched threads.
If you are on desktop, click the quick jump drop down menu and select watched threads. No idea on mobile.
url is https://www.resetera.com/watched/threads
Could the word be Passeggiata? I am not 100% sure, but I think this is it.
Mobile:there's a sidebar that opens on the top left, watched threads is an option between 'latest threads' and 'giveaways'
It's also at "Quick Jump" in mobile.
You should just be able to click the hamburger (top left, next to the forum icon) to get rid of the menu and then click the arrows (bottom left, next to the theme switcher) to expand it to the whole width of your browser window.
I am currently playing a 3D action game (Dauntless) on Switch where the left stick is configured for avatar movement and left click re-centers the camera on the beastie with right stick controlling the camera. However, in the last few days I have had an intermittent problem where either clicking the left stick or pushing up on the left stick to move my avatar forward causes the camera to either give me a top down view of the ground or the sky. My thumb is nowhere near the right stick so am I experiencing the infamous joycon drift or is it a game bug?
