G.Skill RMA experience during the current “RAMageddon”. Genuinely impressed.

G.Skill RMA experience during the current “RAMageddon”. Genuinely impressed.

Honestly, just wanted to give G.Skill some appreciation. This was my first RMA, and the whole process went way smoother than expected.

I bought my RAM less than a year ago, and one stick started causing BSODs. After confirming the RAM was the issue, I contacted G.Skill and had to ship it all the way to Taiwan.

With RAM prices being insane right now, I honestly expected the replacement to take forever. But nope, exactly 7 working days later, I got a brand-new replacement. 😂

Their communication was also great. They replied quickly, gave clear instructions, and made the whole process surprisingly painless.

Considering the current RAMageddon, I genuinely didn’t expect it to be this fast.

Shoutout to G.Skill. 🫡 Definitely makes me feel better about buying from them again.

use a case for your airpods!! (and a quick note on the Pro 3 fit)

I learned the hard way with my AirPods Pro 2. I never used a case, dropped them a few times, and eventually, the lid completely shattered like Legos. To make matters worse, the right AirPod stopped working because every time the case hit the ground, the buds would launch across the room lmao.

The very first thing I did after buying the AirPods Pro 3 was get a case with a locking mechanism so it can't pop open during a drop.

On another note, if you're upgrading, the fit takes some getting used to. The Pro 3 rests much further out in your ear compared to the deeper, snug fit of the Pro 2. For the first few weeks, I constantly felt like they were about to fall out, but I think it's just a matter of getting accustomed to the new design. Anyone else experience?

Question lang about gym etiquette sa AF Holy Spirit

I asked a guy how many sets he still has. At first, he ignored me, then I tried to catch his attention by waving my hand, and then he saw me with a grunting face and ignored me. Another case: this guy looks gloomy as hell, and while I was asking him how many sets he still has, he had this bothered face. Keep in mind, whenever I ask, I ask politely; I make sure that they’re resting and not in between sets, and I smile when I ask.

I tried bakal gym before and I never encountered someone like this. Is it just an AF thing or is the vibe really different here?

kung andito man yung dalawa nayon, please be kind to others 🫶🏿

EDIT: I’m not saying all members here are like that 😭 Some people are genuinely nice here and maybe I just got unlucky.
