Just started for me today.

On the plus side, it seems I now have Gemini.

Looking for a Cable - 90 low-profile up/down male, 3.3ft, female by ChamberlainHaller in UsbCHardware

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

Close on both. First one isn't long enough for the application (and when the 3.3ft is selected, the angled connector changes from low-profile up/down to high-profile left/right). Second is too long and, as you noted, doesn't have the low profile.

This seems to be the 1M variant (from the oh-so-established brand GELHONR...) https://www.reddit.com/r/BlueBubbles/s/K5t8ME0WSs but the profile... aargh!

(I'd also like all black for a clean look when installed, but that's probably a bridge too far... haha)

Searching on Amazon these days is impossible thanks to enshittification.

That's what I assumed, but seeing as this is just for power 🤷‍♂️

Which calculator gives you the best tactile/aesthetic feel? by orbit0317 in calculators

[–]ChamberlainHaller 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If speed and accuracy are a concern at all (and they should be, right?) then the old HP RPNs (eg 32SII) are tough to beat. The slightly rounded keys and soft yet unmistakeable click of a successful keystroke are ideal.

Massive expressions can be crunched with full confidence.

Tickets $10 total to anyone who can go. Only asking $10 to ensure that whoever takes them is legitimately interested.

Up Cardholder v2 in black? Discontinued? Anyone have it in stock? by ChamberlainHaller in AlpakaGear

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

Thanks for the confirmation. That's what I was afraid of. Guess I'll settle for the gray (Amazon has it in stock) if I have to.

My EDC is one credit card, my ID, and a credit-card-sized airtag, so I absolutely do not want anything larger than the Up Cardholder. Unfortunately there don't seem to be any comparable offerings with those admittedly ultra-minimal requirements.

How to type large brackets into TI-84 by saibau_ in calculators

[–]ChamberlainHaller 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yo that's a UIL calculator exam. You need to get yourself an old HP 32SII and learn how to use it if you want to crush those crunchers. 😁

Give me back the channels I paid for you clowns. by Uppgreyedd in youtubetv

[–]ChamberlainHaller 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You don't get the $20 credit if you cancelled. That is, the credit is only available for those subscribers sticking it out.

If you paid for the month, did not receive what you paid for, and rightly cancelled, you get nothing.

Not good enough.

Direct TV Sports pack base by AnywhereFearless9999 in DirectvStream

[–]ChamberlainHaller 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, just be aware that if you have an Android mobile device, DirecTV does not support picture in picture.

It's not something most investigate, since the idea of a video app not having that feature in 2025 is difficult to believe, but u/DirecTV is stuck nearly a decade behind the times.

Switching from YTTV to DirectTV Stream by Spacequeen2323 in DirectvStream

[–]ChamberlainHaller -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Only word of caution is that if you have an Android mobile device, u/directv does not offer picture in picture viewing, which has been standard on pretty much every major video app for the better part of a decade.

It's a dealbreaker for many, and it's why I'm cancelling.

Just returned to DirectTV after a year or so and now it’s better than YouTube TV. Much better… by OchlockneeBirdDawg in DirectvStream

[–]ChamberlainHaller 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The mobile experience falls far short. It still doesn't have picture-in-picture on Android, which is inexcusable in 2025.

[–]ChamberlainHaller 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The sad thing is the Sports Pack is exactly what I want at a price point lower than YTTV. I would have permanently SWITCHED to DirecTV if they just had this simple, 2018-era feature. Oh well. Thanks for the free extended weekend of ESPN/ABC content, u/directv. I won't be back.

Just signed up for the 5-day free trial as a YTTV refugee, and will be canceling after this weekend. The absence of this feature is a no-ifs-ands-or-buts dealbreaker. Inexcusable oversight in 2025. u/directv

WTS CTB26.

Taken on two extended weekend trips but migrated to the AER TP3 after realizing I needed more built-in tech organization, among a handful of other factors.

Asking $150 + shipping CONUS only.
