@Ave many things on amazon are eligible for free shipping when spending 35$ (or whatever the USD equivalent is). You seem to be under that amount, maybe it's eligible?

Ave

It's not.

Private Pansy

@Chippies Free shipping is only domestic

Chippies

@PrivatePansy I haven't paid attention to specifics, but I'm pretty sure I've had stuff come from US to Canada with free shipping, due to total order being above 35$ CAD

of course it's probably different in Europe

Memor-X

@Ave wow, havn't seen postage that large since i ordered Ultimate Madoka from the states from JList

Chippies

since the world revolves around US, Europe gets shafted with many things

Private Pansy

12:05 AM

Canada probably gets a pass because it's the United States' hat (although amazon.ca exists too, so maybe they're just forwarding the order to that?)

Chippies

@Memor-X that's 10$ USD, that's pretty standard for paid shipping IME

@PrivatePansy I only use amazon.ca, but that doesn't mean all sellers ship from Canada

Memor-X

@Chippies oh i was seeing TRY 47,80 as $47.80, very inaccurate i know

Private Pansy

That's not a lot of postage by the way. A lot of the times when I try to buy something from the states the shipping is more expensive than the item itself

Chippies

@PrivatePansy that's the main reason I don't order anything from US, unless they offer free shipping to Canada. Paying shipping that's almost as much or more than the cost of the item is just silly

it's even worse when they have to ship overseas

Private Pansy

Ave

12:10 AM

@Chippies for an order of ~$25, $10 S&H is crazy.

Chippies

@Ave but the thing is, the S&H doesn't change a whole lot depending on the cost of the item

$10 is pretty standard minimum S&H costs

to get shipping cheaper than that you either have to get free shipping or order from china

Ave

I never paid this much to S&H in the past even on non-china sites.

Chippies

when the shipping is 10$, I usually order more stuff at once, because it doesn't affect the S&H cost, usually

Tim Stone

@Chippies It's funny how many delivery service places exist right across the border because of this

Ave

Well I did, sort of. But it was $20 S&H on a $80 product, and was paid by someone else as a gift to me.

Tim Stone

12:14 AM

Like in Port Roberts, the tip of Vancouver we accidentally own

Ave

Oh wait I also paid $12 on a $24 order. That was pretty bad, esp. considering it was a bad shipment and took months to arrive.

Memor-X

@PrivatePansy maybe i'm used to paying $5-$20 for postage, like a Ni no Kuni II Diorama which was bout $10 postage

Private Pansy

@Memor-X $5-$20 is painful, but still okay if it's something you really want. I routinely find shipping equal to the item's cost, at which point it's kind of... pointless, really

Memor-X

@PrivatePansy holy shit. you're not buying from ebay are you?

Private Pansy

Occasionally, but almost every US site charges exorbitant shipping

is a white dot in the middle of the screen a dead pixel if it disappears when you hover over windows in the taskbar?

because i thought a dead pixel was something more permanent

a dead pixel will show in front of your cursor if you try to hover your mouse over it

Memor-X

2:49 AM

@Chippies yeh that's what i thought, it shows up if i move any non-white in a window infront of it but disappears if i hover the back part of the mouse over it or when you get that window preview when hovering over them in the task bar

and on this PC all i'm using is Remote Desktop Connection, Firefox and Notepad++

kill all tasks one by one until it goes away

just make sure you reboot after you've found the culprit, or if you give up and have killed some important windows tasks

Nzall

Sanity check: the control is NOT added? Or the control is added, but doesn't display because of layout or styling?

My instinct in a case like this is that you got a margin or a padding or a height configured incorrectly and the control gets added just fine, but you just don't see it

Dragonrage

the control is added, but not displayed. even if it is the only control on the form as is explicitly stated as visible and is docked into the parent form

i do the exact same adding of controls in other forms using the same function and it works fine
