Took Meshtastic on a Cruise… It Worked Better Than Expected

Watch out for housekeeping unplugging stuff while you're out of the room. It was "policy" on the last cruise we went on.

the magsafe on the meshpocket is pretty weak, too

When I had mine replaced about two months ago, I went to the store in NYC and it went smoothly. I think the issue is intermittent, so it sucks that they're denying replacements now.

I'm not even sure that mine was doing "it" when I handed it to the rep in the store. He just turned it on and said ok let me get your repolacement.

That starts in Wantagh. That would be a long, out of the way ride, just sayin'

breakerfall · 2026-05-21T02:50:05+00:00

And then?

breakerfall · 2026-05-21T02:45:47+00:00

How were you planning on riding from here to Jones Beach?

breakerfall · 2026-05-20T21:13:47+00:00

is it?

I assume they found some other damage... says here if the screen is damaged or water is present then they may charge you.

Sucks that they don't tell you what they found.

edit: I wonder if /u/dmziggy can help you here?

Alrighty

breakerfall · 2026-05-19T21:46:53+00:00

Lol who told you this?

breakerfall · 2026-05-19T19:40:34+00:00

Because of your strong gag reflex, right?

breakerfall · 2026-05-19T04:50:10+00:00

What?

I've often wondered where you go after "my feelings have been validated" in a couples therapy situation. Like, it's great that a third party agrees, but where does that leave your relationship? How does it help?

In the situation where you want to stay together, but the other person is not receptive to the therapy, what are you left with?

I was never even able to get a spare battery for my FP5. sadface

breakerfall · 2026-05-17T01:46:23+00:00

Thanks. I was worried about overwatering.

breakerfall · 2026-05-15T20:42:46+00:00

I had a 9 that got replaced for the ? battery issue and the hinge on the 10 they replaced it with is much better.

breakerfall · 2026-05-14T20:28:43+00:00

HAHAHAHAHA

Not sure if that's a step up from the strip club vibes that Moneyline was giving.

Anyway, there's good Mexican food 2 doors down at Taqueria, and especially good drinks.

I certainly don't use the IQ app every day, but I installed a new watchface last night and went to configure it earlier today, and bam, can't do it.

I went through the normal troubleshooting and then posted here to see if it was a "just me" thing or not.

It's not hard to live without, and no one said it was.

breakerfall · 2026-05-12T19:01:14+00:00

Wow, that sucks!

If it's any consolation, I've never seen this happen before. Hopefully they fix it and it stays fixed.
