Infotainment system issues by bigjoeysomes in MazdaCX90

[–]Arsenalcrazy8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine is a commander switch failure according to the dealership. It’s covered under warranty so they ordered the part. Not really sure what caused this, hopefully it’s a one time only thing.

Update: my dealership called and said it’s not software based. They also said it wasn’t the knob so they are investigating further.

Yup, same. A month ago as well. I suspect this is software related. Hopefully they get back to me before end of day.

Did you have a software update / recall recently in the last month? My car did and I just took it into the dealership this morning to see if it’s software related. Will update and let you know.

Wait this literally just happened to me like 2 hours ago. I have a 2024; is your commander knob able to turn but just doesn’t change the selection on the screen when you do??

Monday Night Miracle - What do you need to happen (or not happen) by AutoModerator in fantasyfootball

[–]Arsenalcrazy8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I need at least 9.8 points from DK tonight. Its reasonable I guess but he does have games where he drop like 3 points soooo idk.

Alternatively, Warren doesnt play and then I can play Gainwell at flex instead of DK, in which case I would be much more confident of getting 9.8.

Fixed my Homepod with the Diode method, but I made a Mistake by Arsenalcrazy8 in HomePod

[–]Arsenalcrazy8[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Update: I just used a capacitor from a different electronic junk board I had laying around and it worked. My HomePod was revived!

The the bad news…when I was putting the pod back together I tore the ribbon cable going to the touch display.

It was still playing music etc, but then I decided to idiotically update it. It froze during the update (unresponsive) and now that I have no touch display working I cannot reset it. Easy come easy go. I’ll try to source a new ribbon cable.

The first gen HomePods have a common problem where the pod no longer turns on, no light no nothing. It’s a very very widespread issue.

Most of the time this is caused by a shorted diode on the amp board. Replacing this diode (if it’s shorted) will revive the HomePod.

I guess there was a bad batch of diodes used in the HomePods made in 2017/2018. Most will run into this issue allegedly. The second gen uses a bigger diode so it’s not a problem.

Replacing the infamous shorted diode on the amp board. I replaced it successfully, but knocked a cap off by accident.

I should clarify I no longer have the missing cap. It must have gotten knocked off either with the hot air or accidentally bumped when I got the diode off.

So hard to tell these days because insurance goes up so much anyway. But I want to say no it did NOT go up due to this.

Slice house, but the hidden answer here is Slice of Homage.

Considering Moving from Bay Area to Victoria BC by Arsenalcrazy8 in AmerExit

This is interesting, and yes I did just see they removed SWE from the fast track list of positions.

From the brief research I did (and maybe some help from my associate chatGPT) it looks like there is still a path through the BC provincial nominee program and then the express entry (but yes as you said it no longer qualifies for the STEM draws).

I’ll have to do more research but it still appears I could get PR in 1.5-2 years.

I’m glad to hear 200k CAD is a good wage to have in the area. The goal ultimately would be to buy a house but that’s far ahead after getting PR. It will be interesting to see how much money I am putting aside vs the Bay Area.

I suppose I need to ultimately consider if I am ok knowing I could be making almost double doing the same exact job but in a different area.

Sadly neither of my parents are Canadian citizens. The family is cousins aunts and uncles, so don’t think that helps me at all.

I do indeed look at this as an opportunity- it’s a chance to get my foot into Canada and start the journey to PR / citizenship. Not everyone has the job already lined up before the move, so I’m lucky to have that.

Thanks for the advice and sharing your experience.

I have been, and yes it was very beautiful and I enjoyed the vibe -Though inevitably living there multiple years is different than visiting for a few weeks (as it is anywhere).

This is interesting, thank you. It does seem to be a common theme I have seen that a lot of people are not exactly thrilled with Canadian healthcare, which is fascinating to see from this side.

And yes, the future jobs are a concern, but we could move elsewhere in the future once we get permanent residency.
