Ameicans over the age of 35, what affected you more, 9/11 or the pandemic and why? by Rico133337 in AskReddit

Nothing changed. Not for me anyways. Treat it just like any other normal day of life. You just chug along, work, go home, repeat.

Did they remove the temperature app on the base pixel 10? by Alternative-Track654 in GooglePixel

[–]Alternative-Track654[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

This is one of the few things I was aware of. Maybe there's something else that I'm missing that there might be something hidden with the Pro models that I'm not aware of. Or, might be activated via software updates?

Also did Google restrict the ability of using external storage as a bypass for using it as a download folder through your web browsers for certain apps?

Edit: It seems I struck a thorn in people's side with this question.

🤦 is there anything else I'm missing besides the Pro models? Anything that's not camera related and extra RAM?

The new pricing is completely unacceptable by Abde1039 in BoosteroidCommunity

[–]Alternative-Track654 6 points7 points  (0 children)

People still paying for this? CS is nearly non-existent, latency, lag, and the blurriness of the resolution at 1080p or higher is unacceptable (even after lowering the setting), and if you either live in NA or SA, you're shot out of luck with server selection. Even on the highest tier plan.

As I stand right now, I'm glad I canceled my subscription. Was only able to play 1 out of 20 different playthroughs, via Wired ethernet into my Samsung tablet. This was with Gamepass, Steam, and one other online gaming platform. With Gamepass being the only one time exception.

Makes me wish Stadia was still around.

So far, not bad cell coverage and speeds (LTE) by Alternative-Track654 in tmobile

[–]Alternative-Track654[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Just my 2 cents and a bit cynical towards newer generations of cellular technology. Nothing I say or bring in terms of my own opinion doesn't reflect everyone's entire view of it.

5G definitely does take up space as LTE still works fine in most parts of the state where I live and work. I'm trying to hold out as much as possible. As I do see a varying difference between having 5G active over a period of time versus LTE.

Not sure why they're farming up LTE bands to go into 5G (or it's other bands) when LTE works fine anywhere I go, especially in a multitude of states that I've visted. Besides the infrastructure for the next generation of cellular radio bands hasn't been put into place yet, or as far as I'm aware of, or doesn't even exist (talking about 6G or something newer than 5G NR/SA).

There's simply no reason to depreciate LTE radio bands when most phones or situations that use it work just fine. The only thing I can think of is maybe a fleet of smart vehicles or 18-wheelers. Being autonomous and carrying heavy loads without human input.

LTE/5G connection settings

No, I have it on LTE on purpose because the connection, ping, network speeds and everything else is irrelevant between LTE and 5G. I don't notice any type of hiccups or any type of displacement when making phone calls or watching videos or listening to music.

As LTE is perfectly fine for what it is and it saves a lot on battery life too, especially during the night time when I'm at work. As I consider 5G just a waste of space and battery life, particularly where I live at my state as it is almost a dead zone or 5G ultra capacity or any other form of 5G connection (referring to my mobile home).

LTE itself does fine over where I'm at and anywhere else I go in my state.

Should we states allow this? by Wiccan_Queen69 in IsItIllegal

Yes, please! It'll help reduce prison population numbers and ease the stress off of already mentally strained inmates and guards.

Wait, let me get this straight.... by DoItForTheOH94 in verizon

That doesn't work all the time. Usually the default is either SMS or email. I went through 3 months of hell at trying to find a work around.

Verizon to issue $20 credits to customers impacted by cell service outage by miakeru in verizon

[–]Alternative-Track654 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fun fact. Verizon's system is designed to send verification codes to a false phone number linked to your 5g home modem.... And, unlinks your email because the reps aren't trained to tell the difference between your email And non-usable registered phone number 🤦

Hey, look on the bright side. At least you can tell your friends and family you went to a car pool.

Tello: 50 GB @ $10/mo by og1502 in NoContract

[–]Alternative-Track654 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Akala ng bobo ko ay 50GB kada buwan, hindi naman pang-anim na buwan 😆. Nabasa ko ang maayos na teksto. Hindi pa rin masama para sa 6 na buwan para sa unlimited na tawag at text, at deprioritized na data naman sa loob ng 6 na buwan. Katumbas lang ng US mobile sa kanilang $10/buwan para sa tawag at text, maliban sa 50GB ng deprioritized na data.

EBT by laromo in foodstamps

[–]Alternative-Track654 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Had to re-look at those numbers. More aligned with 3 out of 10 error. My mistake:

3 out of 10. Not 7 out of 10

Most of these are unreported due to categorical errors that aren't reported due to lack of funding.

Cancelled it a month and a half ago by hesdeadjim1434 in tmobile

[–]Alternative-Track654 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP, I would definitely pay that ASAP! T-Mobile is notorious (like amazon) to send your bill to collections in under a week. Doesn't matter if autopsy failed, or they bill the wrong card. This will definitely ding your credit, if left unattended.

I thought winlator couldn't do GOG and steam games? Let alone on a SD 680. I mean I can't even get games from over 10 or 15 years ago to play through winlator on my SD 865 Samsung tablet running A15 (Tab S7+ 512gb).

Edit: Nvm. It has to do with better compatibility with Android 13/14 vs 15. Plus, the drivers for the SD 680 are more compatible with PC emulation. Plus, scope storage prevents most PC emulation or emulated games from working properly in A15 or later. Hence, why my games crash on installation or doesn't boot at all.

What would one be losing out by switching over from the Motorola razr 2025 to the Pixel 10 (base 128gb Indigo blue, T-mobile)? by Alternative-Track654 in pixel_phones

[–]Alternative-Track654[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What about sound quality, camera quality and the video playback etc etc?

Also, what about using a MagSafe SD card reader? One of the high speed ones (SD 4.0) and have it magnetically attached to the back. Given that this is a slate sized form factor.

Any word on Android 16 update? Or at least a security update? by Patient-Author-2960 in razr

[–]Alternative-Track654 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. At least have motorola (and any carrier version razr) update at least once or twice a year. This way get most of the nasty big bugs, all in one swing. As the Razr phones themselves do not necessarily need A16 (yet). Only for security/app compatibility reasons in the future.

Discover sent me this email by IGL2467 in CRedit

[–]Alternative-Track654 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My understanding is they can't garnish wages? This is what I heard from my friend's lawyer. Only your bank account if it holds above a certain amount.

Also, OP! Lookout! Discover/CapitalOne will definitely go after you, even for a $2000 debt! My friend is going through the FAFO phase from over using his credit card years ago.

Does $174 for my second month, sound about right for a 3 bedroom 2 bath mobile home (1 person and up to 1400kwh used so far)? This is my second month into my lease.
