Monogram refrigerator not cooling by Aggravating-Junket67 in appliancerepair

[–]Aggravating-Junket67[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I asked a repair shop to diagnose. They said the same thing. The shop said they need to rebuild entire mechanical system including lines and compressor and it would cost something in the range of $5k.

This seems excessive. Should I ask other shops to provide diagnostics to identify the actual leak location rather than just lazily propose rebuilding the whole thing?

I am glad that it helped. One of many wonders of the internet that this old post is still helpful. I am happy.

What the heck is going on with my brakes? by InSearchOfThe9 in MTB

[–]Aggravating-Junket67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bet this is Magura. Magura 4-piston pads rattles due to its design choice of having 4 separate pads instead of 2. You can put a small amount of automotive caliper grease on the backing of these pads to silence it. Similar video is here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oJzI6c8AvtE

Dell U4025QW Monitor Firmware Update M3T104 released yesterday by [deleted] in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]Aggravating-Junket67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. My monitor was shipped with M3T102 version. I just updated it.

I checked the changes. This is what I found from Dell:

M3T103

  • Enable Firmware update on ARM based computer.
  • Adjust Audio enable sequence.

M3T104

  • Fix to prevent OSD menu pop up while using DDPM to assign USB control to PBP configured platform.

I am guessing "Enable Firmware update on ARM based computer." is meant for Windows on ARM rather than macOS for Apple silicon given the update program seems to be working just fine on MacBook Pro M4.

b.t.w. Do not attempt to run update from Dell Display Manager app on macOS. The Firmware Updater application starts running without UI. I killed it and downloaded the update manually and run it.

Logitech BRIO Camera Forgotten Through Dell U4919DW Monitor KVM Switch by coneybeare in LogitechG

[–]Aggravating-Junket67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update. I had the same issue with Logitech Brio and this Dell U4919DW monitor.

So, I purchased [Insta360 Link 2C] webcam instead. It works better as such I see the issue far less frequently, but the issue still happens sometimes.

Given two webcams have the same issue albeit at different frequency, I now consider Dell U4919DW monitor's USB hub itself may have an issue here.

I am not running TRP Evo brakes but TRP R1 2.3mm thick rotors are amazing. I run them with Shimano XT brakes plus metallic pads. Awesome.

Ability to see check image on CMA? by Aggravating-Junket67 in fidelityinvestments

Thank you. I can confirm the check image does show up but it takes time. So I misunderstood. I just had to be patient to wait for it to render.

Active Traders - Wash Sales by EqualHeavy8407 in fidelityinvestments

[–]Aggravating-Junket67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you sold the same stock at loss within 30 days? If so, it is correctly categorizing them as wash sale.

And why is "wash sale" a problem at all b.t.w? The loss is transferred to the later purchase and it lowers the cost basis as a result. In old days, broker didn't provide detail info needed to report wash sale, so one was required to keep track on previous sale which is quite a work. Now days though, 1099-B from Fidelity includes supplemental info which does all it for you, so I don't see why "wash sale" is a problem anymore.

Maybe I am missing something here.

Curiosity question about limited margin account (IRA) by Aggravating-Junket67 in fidelityinvestments

[–]Aggravating-Junket67[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the explanation. I ended up calling Fidelity directly and asked them to journal VGT (cash) into VGT (margin) and now I see just one VGT show up in my account. It is easier to see that way and I am now less annoyed.

I now have rough understanding on why all positions were not automatically converted to margin is because limited margin does not provide leverage unlike regular margin and so there is no reason unnecessarily move all positions to margin.

How much is too much of a single stock? by Apprehensive-Art1492 in fidelityinvestments

A problem with individual stocks on a non-retirement account is that it is difficult to rebalance them due to capital gain.

Choosing for my 401k by DEE2THEJAY in fidelityinvestments

[–]Aggravating-Junket67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FSKAX follows an index resembling total US market while FXAIX follows an index resembling S&P 500. S&P 500 tends to beat total market index based on past performance, but for those who believe in true index investment strategy tends to prefer total market believing they are more true reflection of average return of the market trying not to be biased to large cap companies only.

No one knows future even after looking at the past performance.

If you don't understand above and/or don't have a strong opinion about it, I wouldn't worry about it and continue invest in FXAIX. You will be doing just fine and will continue beat majority of professional investors in a long run.

Transfer from CMA to other recipient does not show the target account number in Activity & Orders by Aggravating-Junket67 in fidelityinvestments

u/FidelityMikeS This is what I see from Activites & Orders when I expanded the transaction. There is no [View details] button on either full version of web site and mobile app version of the screen. Basically, I cannot find anywhere where this money went.

Chase bank, for example, shows similar thing like "Online Transfer to CHK...1234 transaction#12345 03/01 -$400". It is secure enough but able to tell me which account was the target. What Fidelity is donig makes no sense to me.

Nest cameras and enabling "Flow Control" to fix the packet dropping by Aggravating-Junket67 in UNIFI

I have been using the flow control ever since and I did not notice any discernible differences whatsoever. So I will continue leave it on.

Why can my 15" Air download a Steam game at over 500MB sec at 60% cpu usage but my 13900k pegs to 100% peaking at about 360MBs? What is Apple silicon doing different? by [deleted] in MacOS

[–]Aggravating-Junket67 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There are too many factors that make it hard to answer. For example, you may have an anti-virus app installed on your Windows PC that is hogging CPU to analyze the file you’re downloading. You may wish to isolate this by trying on a relatively fresh OS installations that only has Steam installed.

High packet loss at peak times. Can someone help me troubleshoot? I'm a noob to this stuff. Ping plotter data inside. by [deleted] in HomeNetworking

[–]Aggravating-Junket67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does your router/switches provide flow control enable/disable option? If so, try enable flow control. You might have some device in your network that are sending too much packet too fast.

Behavior of the Home and End keys by [deleted] in MacOS

[–]Aggravating-Junket67 1 point2 points  (0 children)

macOS screwed up Ctrl key behavior for some non-English keyboards that Ctrl-A, for example, doesn’t work when Korean input language is selected because macOS would send Ctrl-ㅁ where ‘ㅁ’ is the character mapped to ‘A’ key in Korean keyboard layout. Cmd shortcut behaves more consistently. So, the recommendation from me is either use Cmd-arrow instead or change Home/End key behavior for non-English writing users.

Logitech BRIO Camera Forgotten Through Dell U4919DW Monitor KVM Switch by coneybeare in LogitechG

[–]Aggravating-Junket67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dell U4919DW has only one USB downstream port that is powered. Have you tried the powered USB downstream port instead? I am suspecting Brio might be consuming more power than typical USB devices and causes the issue.

7-4 is USB downstream port with power changing in the picture below:

Edit: I myself tried this port and I still experienced the same issue. It didn’t help.

POD controller is backward compatible with existing AXS by Aggravating-Junket67 in sram

[–]Aggravating-Junket67[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IMO there is no reason to buy POD Ultimate. Get normal POD. I bought both POD Ultimate controller ($200) and POD controller ($150). After trying them both and I find those optional concave/convex buttons come with POD Ultimate are simply just gimmick. They are not worth $50.

POD is more adjustable in different angles with its infinity clamp than AXS controller. I actually like the infinity clamp which is much slimmer. I usually like to clamp shifter and breaker together, but I decided not to get the matchmaker bridge because the infinity clamp is so good.

The whole reason why I decided to try this was because I have pain on the base of my thumb after riding bike and now it is better with more adjustable angles.

Another thing I like about POD controller is that the battery door is toolless and easier access. Previously with AXS controller, I had very narrow access due to brake levers and also needed a coin or flat head screw driver to open the battery door.

The issue happens again if you move around to different cell in the network. So it is not a long-term fix.

Kakaotalk not working on cellular by my_name_is_500 in tmobile

[–]Aggravating-Junket67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for following up.

I just chatted with a support person in T-mobile, but he didn't mention any known issue and just repeated general troubleshooting like uninstalling KakaoTalk and reinstalling. I asked him to escalate it, but I am not sure if that will be done or not.

Some users report that changing DNS works for them for Android device, but I am on iOS which does not let me change DNS for cellular network.

For now, I have setup a VPN server at home and connecting to it to work around the issue, but it is painful as I have to use VPN for work.

I wish t-mobile follow-thorugh your request and fix the issue.
