I got the following phone:
Moto G Pure 2021 2-Day battery Unlocked Made for US by Motorola 3/32GB 13MP Camera Deep Indigo
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09BTB5MKT/
It has an Android 11 installed.
I went to Developers Options menu in settings, then I went there to Quick settings developer tiles menu and I enabled the Wireless debugging tile. I was able to confirm that when I swipe down from top to bring the Android Quick settings menu, that the Wireless debugging tile (with the android bug logo) is showing, and it's working.
I tried to reboot my phone, and once the phone rebooted, I noticed that the Wireless debugging tile is missing when I swipe down from top to bring the Android Quick settings menu.
I went back to Developers Options menu in settings, then I went there to Quick settings developer tiles menu and I confirmed that Wireless debugging tile is still showing as Enabled. I had to toggle it to off and then on again, in order to get the tile to show again.
Any idea why it's doing it and/or how to fix/configure it so the tile sticks after reboot? Alternatively, is there a different way to create some shortcut to it on the home screen or something?
Thank you.

Long story short, I accidentally broke my girlfriends brand new phone after a night of drinking when I playfully picked her up and her flip Z4 fell out her pocket. The glass on the back is cracked, the phone won't fully open, half the screen isn't responding to touch and there's a green line down the screen.
I'm absolutely mortified because she's had the same crappy iphone for years and finally she gets a new phone and this happens.
The phone has no warranty, so I'm going to take it down a repair shop tomorrow. Can anyone tell me how much I'll be looking at paying to fix it? Or is there is any magical loophole to get another one sent from Samsung?
Any help will be appreciated 🙏🏻

Hey y'all!
I'm in my first year of homeownership, and have been battling persistent back-up of the only basement floor drain (sewage, because it's tied into our main stack, which is about 10 feet away). I've had the main line cleared two times in the last 8 months by two different plumbers. It was also cleared by the previous owners before we closed on the house as one of our terms for closing (so, technically, 3 times in 8 months).
For my plumbers, I took both plumbers about 6 - 6.5 hours to clear the line, and neither pulled anything out. Both were a bit baffled and described the clearing as something like "getting the sludge moving."
In between the two clearing efforts, the drain would back up, then recede completely, then back up, and recede again (less than a couple of gallons at a time) until it really backs up in the basement again. I've just had it cleared, and it's repeating this pattern, just like before.
Once the big back up occurs, the water mostly maintains the same level, despite our usage or non-usage of water (suggesting some kind of potentiometric surface maybe...an equilibrium of sorts?). There isn't any danger of electricity and water mixing, as I've built up a bit of a dam to hold the water on the non-electrical side of the basement, but it's still a problem I'd like to solve.
Obviously, I don't want the sewage to make it's way into our kitchen sink (the next lowest drain) so I don't think plugging the drain is a good answer, but I don't know how to fix the problem. The plumbers who have come out to take a look agree that it's weird the drain backs up so frequently, with no apparent cause for the clog (no roots, tampons, grease, etc they could find, even with a camera). The best guess is that the main line could be too flat, or potentially back-pitched. One suggested adding in a sewage-ejector pump, but I haven't yet thought through the potential ramifications of that...or how one might be installed in a floor drain.
Anyone else have experience with a similar problem or have thoughts about what might be going on? Hoping to avoid having to replace the whole sewer line, but if I have to do it, so be it.

As the title says, I'm moving to a city in another state (I'm from Mexico, moving to the other side of the country), and I'll be traveling by plane. I likely wont be moving anything by car, and even if I was, I would Not put my PC on the car to travel with, as its several days of travel and its dangerous enough as it is. I also don't want to ship it cause truth be told it would either be outragiously expensive, take too long or just plain out not trustworthy. So that only leaves taking it with me, and as a carry on, at that, since check-in luggage is Not the best either. I built it myself, so I have no issue with dissasembling and reassambling
The problem begins with the fact that my entire case and components are... probably close to 20 kg, maybe a little less. The bulk of the weight being:

• My case, Meshify 2 from Fractal Design
• 6 HDDs (varying weights, between 1 and 8TB each) and 2 SSDs

The rest of the build is pretty standard

• Mobo is H610M H, CPU i5-12400F with stock intel cooler, which is the Only combo I do Not feel comfortable dissasembling and would much rather keep together if possible.
• GPU is an RTX 2060 An expansion card for drive ports
• An m.2 SSD
• 2 16gb ram sticks
• PSU Corsair 650W Bronze, iirc, not really sure but if I'm honest, this is the one component im1000% okay with leaving behind and just buying a new one
• And then all the cables to make it all work

As for peripherals, I'll be buying a new monitor when I get there, the mouse is no issue, the keyboard is a 10 dollar keyboard i can replace if it breaks, and the headphones I can just put around my neck or smth, so the only thing I'm kind of concerned would be my Blue Yeti mic, and the plan so far for that is taking it off the base, putting the base in my checked luggage, and bubble wrap the hell out of the actual microphone and put it in one of my carry ons. But I'm open to smarter suggestions if any of y'all have any.
If I'm honest its a bit of a daunting task and I have no clue how to even begin to tackle it, and before someone says, no a Steamdeck/Laptop wouldn't solve this, I've taken pride in building this PC for myself and for my needs and want to take it with me into a new chapter of my life.
So yeah, thats my conondrum right now and altho i've got Time I'd much rather have a plan of attack as early as possible so I can worry about the more Pressing matters with moving. If you've read this far, thank you very much for your time, and I hope you have a nice day.

Zone 1 wasn't finished running but I was leaving town, I fast forward the controller through all 6 zones.
When I hit zone 5 the drip lines (which are cut and not used) started spewing and will not shut off all the sudden.
It's a semi old system, I've seen examples of turning a few screws on/ near the solenoid to fix. I don't have those.
Seems like I can unscrew the solenoid and hopefully find a replacement that'll just screw right in? If that doesn't do it then I have to dig out the box and cut out the whole solenoid and replace? I don't want that...
Ideas/ comments?

Thought I would share the macros I use on my Preservation evoker. Some of these are really useful, some of these are just me trying to have the most streamlined, efficient, minimalist action bar setup. Some are just silly but I thought they were interesting, so I hope you might too. None of these are going to make you an epic 3000io player on their own but I do find that lessening cognitive load can really help during the M+ grind.
I would love if people shared any macros or ideas or improvements! I could spend hours making silly little buttons.
Here is a picture of my UI and keybinds if you want to have a look what my screen/setup looks like: https://imgur.com/a/HuQetnp
Damage/Kick/CC
Casts "Azure Strike" on your mouseover target without modifiers, "Quell" with Shift modifier, and "Sleep Walk" with Ctrl modifier on mouseover targets. Good bind on my mouse button for easy spam.

#showtooltip /cast [nomod,@mouseover] Azure Strike; [mod:shift,@mouseover] Quell; [mod:ctrl,@mouseover] Sleep Walk 

Deep Breath/Fire Breath
Description: Simple shift modifier to put Fire Breath and Deep Breath on the same button. You could create a WeakAura to show you when Deep Breath is almost off cooldown though you eventually can just sense when its coming back (or just check by pressing shift).

#showtooltip /cast [nomod] Fire Breath /cast [mod:shift] Deep Breath 

Emerald Communion Helper
Cancels "Emerald Communion" if active and casts "Emerald Communion" if not active. This means if you Communion and get locked in place, then a swirlie appears beneath you, you click it again to be able to run away. Lifesaver.

#showtooltip /cancelaura Emerald Communion /cast Emerald Communion 

Fury of the Aspects/Visage
Casts Lust with left-click in combat and Visage with right-click out of combat. Stops you casting Lust out of combat, just in case, though this means I sometimes have to throw an Azure Strike on the mobs before I can lust.

#showtooltip Fury of the Aspects /cast [combat, btn:1] Fury of the Aspects; [btn:2] Visage /cast [nocombat] Visage 

Sneaky HoveSoar
This ones fun. It uses Hover in combat. Out of combat, it will first try to put you into Visage form first, otherwise cast Hover. This is a stupid workaround for the fact that Evokers always get put in dragon form which means you’ll spend much more time in your Visage form! In combat it will just Hover, so you don’t have to worry about it messing with encounters. It also uses the Highborne Soul Mirror which leaves a translucent copy behind you which can be useful in PvP. While holding shift it casts Soar, to save you a bar slot.

#showtooltip [mod:shift] Soar;Hover /stopcasting /cast [combat] Hover /cast [nocombat, mod:shift] Soar /use Highborne Soul Mirror /script UIErrorsFrame:Clear() /stopmacro [combat] /castsequence reset=nocombat Hover, Visage 

Mass Return Alert
Sends a message to your party or raid when you Mass Rez. Doesn’t work in combat which prevents you spamming the message when you’re waiting for the last mob to die. I dont use normal Rez anymore, even though I know it would save me 1s of cast time. You could do a simple shift modifier if you wanted that option.

#showtooltip Mass Return /cast Mass Return /stopmacro [combat] /script if IsInRaid() then SendChatMessage("Casting Mass Return. Don’t release!", "RAID") elseif IsInGroup() then SendChatMessage("Casting Mass Return. Don’t release!", "PARTY") end 

Damage Reduce/Self Healing
An all-round damage reduction button. Left-click uses Obsidian Scales, right click uses a Healthstone, shift-left-click uses a Refreshing Healing Potion. You could put Renewing Blaze in this macro on a shift-right-click, but I prefer giving it its own button so I can easily see the CD.

#showtooltip [mod:shift] Refreshing Healing Potion; [btn:2] Healthstone; Obsidian Scales /cast [mod:shift] Refreshing Healing Potion /cast [btn:2] Healthstone /cast [nomod,btn:1] Obsidian Scales 

Rescue/Oppressing Roar
Description: Casts "Rescue" if known at the cursor location, or "Oppressing Roar" if known. I swap between a Rescue build in raids and a Roar build in M+. This just means the button changes automatically when I swap specs.
The Rescue function is a must - you click an Ally then Rescue to your cursor point. Big timesaver when every second counts.

#showtooltip /cast [known:Rescue,@cursor] Rescue; [known:Oppressing Roar] Oppressing Roar 

Rewind/Favourite Pet
The most important macro on this list. Prevents you casting Rewind when out of combat (I have a real problem of blowing my cooldowns because of twitchy fingers. When you right click it out of combat it summons a Random Favourite Pet :3

#showtooltip /cast [nomod,combat] Rewind /rfp [nocombat, btn:2] 

Time Dilation/Landslide
A space saver. Casts Time Dilation on my mouseover, or Landslide at my cursor point when I shift-click the button.

#showtooltip [mod:shift] Landslide;Time Dilation /cast [nomod,combat, @mouseover] Time Dilation /cast [mod:shift,@cursor,known] Landslide 

Dream Breath & Trinket
Description: Simple trinket to auto-use a trinket with my Dream Breath whenever its off cooldown for a little burst. This is unsuitable if your trinket requires more specific timing.

#showtooltip /cast Dream Breath /use 13 

Use Trinket or Follow
Uses your 2nd trinket on your mouseover target when in combat. I also made it so that out of combat, pressing that button follows my mouseover target (if I can), which has felt surprisingly good to have on an easy keybind.

#showtooltip 14 /use [combat, @mouseover] 14 /script if not UnitAffectingCombat("player") then FollowUnit("mouseover") end 

Eat & Drink
Simple space saving WateFood macro. Replace the names with your specific items (which could be Conjured Mana Buns). Uses food on left button click, water on right button click.

#showtooltip [mod:shift] Cup o' Wakeup;Thrice-Spiced Mammoth Kabob /use [btn:2] Cup o' Wakeup; Thrice-Spiced Mammoth Kabob 

Mana Potion/Invis Potion
General space saver and a reminder to always carry Invisibility Pots.

#showtooltip /use [nomod] Aerated Mana Potion /use [mod:shift] Potion of the Hushed Zephyr 

Renewing Blaze or LFG
Just putting this here as inspiration for other space-saving/efficiency macros. In combat it uses Renewing Blaze, out of combat it opens up the Group Finder (straight to premade groups!). Could free up a button for someone.

#showtooltip Renewing Blaze /cast [combat] Renewing Blaze /script if not UnitAffectingCombat("player") then PVEFrame_ShowFrame("GroupFinderFrame", LFGListPVEStub) end 

Bonus Macros:
Crest & Chest Cleaner
When I click this it attempts to combine Crest Fragments or open the most common type of treasure its (Weekly quest box, Professional skill-up items, etc) so I don’t have to go digging through my bag. This is just a random list of the items I use it for, but its here as inspiration if you want to make your own. Currently it shows me how many Aspects Crests i have on the button.

#showtooltip /use item:204078 /use item:204077 /use item:204075 /use item:204076 /use item:200454 /use item:198964 /use item:200677 /use item:205226 /use item:198608 /use item:205247 /use item:205423 /use item:199115 

Quick Fire
When you use your cooking fire it sets it at your feet, instead of requiring a second click. The game is literally unplayable without this.

#showtooltip Cooking Fire /cast [@player] Cooking Fire 

Dismount
Just put this button your Dragonriding Action Bar for an easy dismount. Used to ease my anxiety when doing Nokhud.

/dismount 

Hi, I have an 1800s home I'm trying to replace windows on and am having trouble deciding on a brand. I think we're going to do inserts because our house was stuccoed and I do not want to deal with a full window replacement and then repairing 1800s brick and then redoing stucco.
I've narrowed my search down to a few options. I have a quote for Pella Reserve windows and Marvin Ultimate windows. I want to stick with Clad wood windows to preserve the feel of the home inside since all of the windows are the original wood windows. The thing is, the Marvin are significant cheaper (29k vs 49k for the Pella) AND from what I am gathering are considered better quality. I really like the idea of the Rolscreen Pella has in their double hungs because I'd prefer to not see the screen and the integrated screen is super cool to me.
I also want to get a quote for Loewen windows to compare. I have a ProVia vinyl clad wood quote (34k) but want to stay away from vinyl.
Does anyone have any real life experience debating between these two/three brands (Marvin, Loewen, Pella) or do you have other recommendations for a solid wood clad double hung option?

Made this build with the help of a friend of mine, I'm not very good at PC building so any suggestions with the build is greatly appreciated!
Will be using the PC for gaming primarily.

Found my fender light out of it's place and saw that it was snapped at this part https://imgur.com/a/0hxwnq9 . Bought a replacement from amazon and it doesn't lock / snap into place. Is there a part inside the fender that it's supposed to attach to that might've probably broken off too?

This may be a bit of a controversial take but I honestly wasn’t a fan of the story in The Legend Of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom. I honestly was a bit excited for this game coming out because it is the first game in a long time that Ganondorf made a re-entry in the series and one criticism I actually gave the Zelda franchise was that I believe that Ganondorf isn’t in enough Zelda games but now after actually beating the game and after 6 years of waiting after Breath Of The Wild, I feel like there was potential for the story to be really good and interesting but instead the game just felt undercooked with half baked ideas and the story is a convoluted mess with the most cookie cutter, bare bones plot structure you could imagine.
I feel like the characters weren’t utilized well to their full potential and the story overall just felt shallow and paper thin with it’s presentation. It was lazy and it was crafted with no direction of creativity. I just think the biggest problem with the story as a whole is that it feels so generically crafted and there’s just not much too it.
I think the biggest issue that exposes this is the way they handled Zelda in this game. I think her lack of agency in the story creates plot holes and many things that actually happen in the game are just left vague with very little detail explaining how things are so the story can be pieced together.
Even right in the beginning of the game I kind of question the motivation of why Zelda and Link decided to go down into a cave and explore Hyrule’s past without really much thought given. I know this is a minor complaint but it kind of bothers me how the whole story in this game is set up just from this happening alone and then they just happen to find Ganondorf just chilling beneath Hyrule Castle and he is somehow powerful enough now to literally disintegrate the master sword with barely any trouble.
I mean, I think it’s cool how he can actually do that now and I love Ganondorf as he’s always been one of my favorite characters of all time and don’t get me wrong but isn’t the master sword like Ganondorf’s one weakness? I think I wouldn’t have a problem that he could do this at all if they at least just bothered to give a bit more solid context as to how Ganondorf can now just overpower Link so easily in the beginning of the game.
The only logic you can come up for why and how Ganondorf can do this is because he acquired Sonia’s stone on his forehead but the game never clearly states this so all you can do is speculate.
This is what I mean about the story being vague because nothing is ever articulated well enough that you actually see an explanation so you can understand what the hell is happening in this game.
Another issue with the games story is how much this game just dumps the same exposition in your face like as if you couldn’t understand simple things that the story tells you meanwhile not being able to focus on anything that could be more subtle like with Zelda being a puppet of Ganondorf throughout 2 thirds of the entire game but doesn’t utilize to it’s fullest potential.
This could’ve been honestly one of the darkest games of all time if they just fixed how they handled Link, Zelda, and Ganondorf. I don’t really like how the characters barely turn against Zelda when they can clearly see that Zelda is doing some really terrible things like how she used Yunobo to turn all his people into slaves that reject work and eat rocks all day, and how she was literally responsible for causing all of Rito Village to suffer a blizzard harshly.
I understand why Queen Sonia didn’t turn against Zelda because she was able to see how she was a fake Zelda right before her eyes but during the entire game where you play as Link, nobody see’s the real Zelda and they’re just left to speculate what the hell is happening.
What we actually got was disappointing as answers. What really happened to Zelda was that it’s revealed that she turned herself into a light dragon after she was told by Mineru that it was forbidden because she wouldn’t be able to turn back and she decides to swallow a stone and turns into a dragon.
Not only does the game not make clear how she travelled back in time to begin with but then it all leads down to a disappointing plot twist that also gets resolved in an instant at the very end of the game but we’ll talk about that more down below.
The reason I state that the game repeats exposition and throws it down your face is because there’s also this one cutscene that gets repeated being shown 4 times as if we didn’t already have a grasp about that Rauru imprisoned Ganondorf after the Imprisoning War. We don’t need to watch the same exact thing happen over and over again after we beat an area and dungeon in the game.
The game has no real sense of progression and instead formulaically copies the same cutscene watered down every time.
I also don’t like a lot of the new characters they make up in the game that are newly introduced. Either they feel like filler characters or their entire existence is contrived to begin with.
Personally I'm going to be honest with you. I'm not a big fan of Rauru as a character. I find it pretty hard to actually believe that he himself is actually the first king of Hyrule mainly because it doesn't actually make any sense from a biological standpoint.
If you're telling me some weird goat dude was the first king of Hyrule and if the Zonai were really responsible for building the kingdom to begin with, then this creates a massive question. How do you explain how the Hylian's rose to power when the Zonai are the creators?
In theory, you could probably argue that Rauru's spirit maybe met some random dude and told him he could be king but the game never hints how that could be the case as like with Ganondorf now having power to destroy the master sword or the situation where Zelda is turned into a dragon is left very vague with nothing deeper than just simply go with whatever nonsense is happening in the plot of this game.
It's not even that I think Rauru is annoying. I just think he's a really boring, uninteresting character who also just has no personally. I think the people honestly making this game didn't bother putting two seconds of thought into how this would work that a goat looking freak of nature is the original king of Hyrule.
I don't actually care about him or the ancestor's which by the way are just bootleg versions of the champions from Breath Of The Wild because the story does nothing developing it's characters past the cookie cutter and basic storyline of good guys must defeat evil demon bad guy that you see recycled a million times.
I actually kind of wonder how if he's actually the king of Hyrule how it never crosses Zelda's mind to wonder if they're somehow biologically related somehow but you know, who'd wonder anything about that right? Nah, let's just go with it right?
A lot of the new side characters are also extremely boring generic archetypes like Tulin who's just some brat who thinks he's tough and then for some reason, Teba who's actually his father just decides to allow Tulin to fight with Link anyways because you gotta have some little kid fighting to relate to babies playing this game and Sona who's extremely aggravating because the writers just thought it would be smart to just add some new forced in love interest who's in love with Sidon even though they've never even been together shown in Breath Of The Wild and have the amount of chemistry as two planks of wood and showing a paper bag being blown beneath your legs.
Not even much to say beyond that regarding these "Characters" if you could even call them that.
Going back to Zelda though, I think the biggest problem with her character arc is that she's utilized about as subtle as raw paper throughout the entire story. I think the biggest problem with her becoming a dragon is that it kind of removes any tension or real stakes of what goes on with her.
I just feel like it would've been a lot cooler in the story if there was more intriguing mystery surrounding why Zelda was acting so strange throughout the entire game because on paper, it is a good concept. I'll give Tears Of The Kingdom credit with that.
It would've been better if the game had you first meet Zelda and then emotionally tries to break Link and hurt all of her friends and then everybody turns against her meanwhile the real Zelda hides in the shadows trying to prove there was an imposter and nobody believes her. That seems like a much better outline for a really dark and gritty story and personally if I was writing this games plot, that would be what it'd be focused on.
Dragon Zelda shouldn't even exist in this game. I thought it was stupid because it took away all the tension that evil Zelda was doing and it wasn't like it wasn't so obvious that Ganondorf was pulling the strings behind Zelda this whole time.
The reason why this is such a terrible plot twist is because it ruins the darker tone this game was trying to aim for with Ganondorf's admittedly cool and dark plan of ruining the belief that Zelda is such a pure and innocent soul as a way to get revenge on the fact he was imprisoned. Breaking people from the inside is a lot darker than breaking them from the outside and that's something I think this game doesn't understand.
Personally I think they also ruined this part of the story because they needed to aim it towards kids and not both kids and adults and I see this as an issue because there's absolutely nothing wrong with an adult having his nostalgia for a video game so that argument would be ridiculous.
It's just a shame that the game's plot isn't as dark as it could've been and would've been a lot more interesting this way.
Now I was maybe just a little bit hard on Ganondorf in this game but to be fair, I don't actually think he was done poorly in this game. I think the final boss in this game minus the part where Ganondorf turns into a dragon was a pretty cool fight and I also think that he does look pretty cool in this game too.
My only real issue with Ganondorf in this game is that I do feel like his characterization is kind of lacking in this game. All of his dialogue is just generic comically evil one liners and it kind of just takes me a bit out of it when I'm just trying to have fun watching Ganondorf kick everybody's ass on screen. Him talking about how he just wants to erase light from this world feels a bit cheesy and I think they could've done a better job making him a bit more serious as a character and really going an extra mile ruining Zelda's reputation as a hero.
I say this not ever because I hate Ganondorf. I say this because I know when things have more potential and they could be done better and I feel like Ganondorf's presentation with his character writing was a bit lacking in this game. I feel like Wind Waker actually did a better job making him feel more human inside but that's because we saw him care about something more than just enslaving Hyrule for once.
I feel like if Ganondorf was given a bit more human emotion, it would've made more since that he was actually born as the demon king instead of just becoming the demon king stealing some jewel from some ancient people. Wasn't Ganondorf already the reincarnation of Demise or is that just not the case anymore somehow? It's not like we ever learn what motivated Ganondorf to steal it to begin with other than simply obtaining power.
Lastly we must talk about the games ending. I know there's a few parts that I haven't brought up yet like anything about Mineru, or literally questioning how the hell guardians don't exist anymore which is a whole thing into itself but to prevent this post from being too long, I'm just talking about what's really most relevant in the games story.
I find it to be a ridiculous asspull that Zelda turns back into a human simply because Link gave Rauru the channeled power to do some magic garbage on her. I find it rather baffling that she was turned into a dragon and was told she wouldn't be able to turn back but the story retcons this anyways without logically piecing together what could be a cure for Zelda that could work.
Instead they just use magic out of their ass because Link is apparently God in this game. I find it to be really annoying that he also has no real chemistry with Zelda because he's so emotionless and hollow with how he presents feelings towards her. Link in this game just feels like a blank slate of a character.
He's already overpowered when the game first starts and then he's able to fight Ganondorf later by having way less trouble than before. What kind of character progression is that? At least in Twilight Princess or Wind Waker, he starts off weak and grows stronger overtime but in this game, Link just feels like cardboard designed as a plot device for himself and the other character.
There's no sense of scale for his power level and he can just save people from curses and overpower a literal dark lord because the game demands it for the sake of the plot. Not because any of these characters actually feel like people.
Look, this game isn't a bad game and to be fair, I still think it has a lot of good qualities and the game is fun sometimes. Although, it struggles as a whole game mainly because it's nothing really that original as a game and that concerns me. It just feels like Breath Of The Wild with a bit of minor tweak's to it.
Breath Of The Wild despite being a really fun game for me was only a 7/10 because while it was a very fun game, it was lacking with it's story and I also thought the game had issues with weapons breaking all the time and the open world just feeling lifeless sometimes because there were no characters that really felt like they touched my soul.
Tears Of The Kingdom is honestly overall a 6/10 game for me which may be controversial but I'm not afraid to say this game honestly has a lot more problems than some of these other critics are making this game out to be.
I haven't even talked about the actual "Game" part of it yet but there's honestly a lot I could say about this game. If this truly is game of the year this year, than gaming truly is dying and that's literally sad.
Overall, I think the biggest problem with the story in this game is the fact that it's not willing to create or write anything that doesn't have a basic and more complex story structure and that hurts it overall because I see that the game has good ideas but it's not willing to advance further and write stronger story beats because by design, this entire game is too much like Breath Of The Wild and tries to do the same thing but ends up falling apart with some of it's core design.
Can I be one to say that I'm honestly getting sick of Breath Of The Wild? Yes, it was a good game but it was fresh back when it came out in 2017 and Tears Of The Kingdom just feels like a worse replica of that game. It's definitely not way worse than Breath Of The Wild but I actually think that even compared to a game like that, it doesn't quite have all of it's charm.
I'm not a big fan of Tears Of The Kingdom's story. I think it's honestly just a ripoff of Breath Of The Wild's story but also fanfiction writing the origin of Hyrule and failing. I think there was a lot of missing potential for one of the darkest games ever made and it just didn't have enough thought and focus put into it. I think it's characters are shallow, 1-Dimensional, and the story fails because it tries too much to keep the same formula as Breath Of The Wild which holds the story back from breathing air more and focusing on more ideas better.
Please let me know what your take on this games story is. I'm curious. I'm always up for a friendly discussion. Stay tuned for more posts and have a good day.

I have been getting random reboots with Ryzen 5 (Cezanne), B550M DS3H, and corsair vengeance ram.
Symtoms is that screens simply go black, tower LED light for power doesnt even turn off, then POST starts. no logs from linux mint system here so I dont know. It had happened on live usb boot tests also.
I have tested with lot of stuff but everything seems to be fine. ram has been memtested all night on single sticks and as pair. PSU have been replaced for test and returned. 550w is plenty when it barely uses it, using 3-20% load.
I'm concerned with number of MSI b550m reboot random posts, as well as cpu/ran compatibility posts also. I can't really afford to just randomly swap parts.

Selling my 2020 Razer Blade 15 in Base Model. It is in great condition and works with zero issues. The charging block is a bit scuffed up though. Never really gamed on it much only did office work.
Here are the exact specs and model:
Intel Core i7-10750H 6-Core, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Ti, 15.6" FHD 1080p 120Hz, 16GB RAM, 1 TB SSD, Windows 11

I upgraded the interior storage so instead of 256 GB it is now 1 TB SSD
Also has a matte black D Brand skin on the top as the CNC aluminum was a bit of a finger print magnet. I can remove this before shipping if requested.
Price: $800

I tried to take photos in 2 different lighting environments to show the condition.
