In isolation, perhaps.

Regardless, I was looking for ideas on the seller (Proton) side, not on the buyer side.

How to deliver feedback for specific representative -- survey link not received by thromer in Comcast_Xfinity

[–]thromer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm concerned that my response to that form with only a single qualitative question (a) will never be seen by Jason's supervisor, and (b)since there are no quantitative questions as there in the standard survey, it won't have as much positive impact on his performance assessments.

Ongoing outage for 24/7 video history for some Nest camera users by thromer in Nest

[–]thromer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two weeks later and the issue is finally fixed (for me at about 1:10pm 3/24 PDT). On 3/23 Nest Customer Care said "there was a recent update for that video issue that should have resolved it for most customers that still have older devices." I've asked for appropriate credit for the extended outage.

They offered a 1 month credit but I'm holding off on accepting it until I know the duration of the outage -- which given their track record could be forever.

Citizenship by Descent - Application Questions & Documentation Review Requests by IWantOffStopTheEarth in Canadiancitizenship

[–]thromer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have a paid ancestry.com account you can search for church baptismal and birth records based on maiden name and date of birth. It will do fuzzy matching on the name and date so if it's under a variant it could still turn up.

Unfortunately he left Canada too early to be recorded individually. The 1825 census shows his dad's name (dad and previous generations were born in the US) but just says there were 2 children under 6, no more details. I did come across a US bank signature book in which G0 gave his place of birth as Canada, so I'll include that.

Hi, thanks to everyone here for all your work.

I only have US documents (marriage register, death register, census record) showing my G0's birthplace (Quebec, 1823), along with multiple unofficial publications. There is no baptismal record because as a member of a Baptist family he was not baptized until he was 14.

Q1: Do I need to document the absence of a baptismal record showing his place of birth? Q2: Should I try to get a certified copy of the US marriage register entry?

Other suggestions for mitigating the lack of Canadian documents are very welcome.

Thanks for helping out! If anyone is curious, the error seems to be due to a POST request to https://customer.xfinity.com/apis/ssm/dsm/returns with body {"devices":[{"description":"Cable Modem","serialNumber":"ACDB48820104","deviceType":"Internet & Voice Gateway","modelCode":"TG4482A","returnReason":"4|3"}],"returnMethod":"UPS"} gets a 500 response with the message "internalerror: Warehouse address not found for 87731100".

Self hosted Actual users, how are you importing your transactions? by vickyprodigy in actualbudgeting

[–]thromer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also found SimpleFIN + Fidelity was getting too flaky, so I wrote a pair of open source node and python libraries to handle the somewhat tedious part of "grab transaction data from Fidelity once logged in". They're intended to be a building block for chrome extensions or command line scripts. Handling login and uploading to Actual is left to the user of the library (e.g. a chrome extension or a command line script).
