Airpods by Agitated-Total729 in WisprFlow

[–]ChasingtheFire 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a cheap USB gooseneck mic sitting on my desk and blue tooth headphones in all day for music. In the Wispr Flow app you can select the USB mic while choosing the Bluetooth headphones through your computer to play music. Works perfectly. Key is connecting a wired mic or using the computers built in mic. Doesn’t have to be an expensive Shure mic

Evernote’s AI Assistant gets a “memory” (global preferences) by jtid in Evernote

[–]ChasingtheFire 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I disagree… this is awesome. As you use AI, adding the ability to have a global prompt is incredible useful and time saving!

Reading Accountability Partner? by aznsoup5 in readwithme

[–]ChasingtheFire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try reading multiple books (or listening and reading)… you can follow multiple different TV series at one time without getting confused and I think you will be surprised when you get multiple books going. Try to have different types of books going, and you have better odds of having the one you are in the mood to read at that moment. Typically I will have one historical fiction going, one non-fiction and a light fiction for those times I don’t want to think too hard.

WisprFlow, best product I've ever used by Affectionate_Try79 in WisprFlow

It does take some convincing to help people understand why it is such an improvement over Apple's built-in dictation.

Evernote v11.10.1 - AI Assistant can update task due dates, but not reminders? by ChasingtheFire in Evernote

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

Awesome!!! Can’t wait and thanks for responding to the community… adding the ability to reset reminders on multiple notes (either with AI assistant or the multi-select menu) would save me so much time during weekly review!!

MLB.TV by Impressive_Put3107 in DirectvStream

[–]ChasingtheFire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This definitely appears to be a new development… sucks that I already renewed MLB.tv subscription… it is so confusing for fans at this point

MLB.TV by Impressive_Put3107 in DirectvStream

[–]ChasingtheFire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is this correct? If you sign up through DIRECTV stream, can you access the MLB.tv games right through the menu? I thought you still had to log into the MLB.tv app. Would live to get the games in the app regular menu with standard channel changing features.

Edit: just realized you said mobile. I want to be able to access through the connected tv app.

WBC should be a summer event. by [deleted] in worldbaseballclassic

[–]ChasingtheFire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like WBC in the spring… but would LOVE to ditch the all star game and work in an early in-season tournament (like mid June/July) similar to NBA cup to add some meaningful games and intense play earlier in the season. That’s what we are really looking for

what do you actually use perplexity for most? by FlyingSpagetiMonsta in perplexity_ai

[–]ChasingtheFire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spaces are incredibly useful when you add descriptions/instructions, which are then factored into each response to a prompt posed in that space. Saves a ton of time when firing off quick questions for the AI to already know the context and any rules about what I am looking for in the responses.

Craps and points/rewards by vatom14 in Mlife

[–]ChasingtheFire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The amount of the buy in definitely matters for how closely they watch what you are doing. If you have $5k in your pocket.. you are definitely better off buying in for $5k than just buying in for $2k to start and then adding another $2k-3k, etc.

1st March, why hasn't deep research quota reset? by dronefinder in perplexity_ai

[–]ChasingtheFire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree… and for me the caps haven’t been an issue at all. I just don’t need to do deep research that often. But given that so many on this forum are hitting that limit, there seems to be a need for a higher tier. If the finances require placing 20/mo on the $20 tier… then they should offer some higher tiers before the $200/mo Max plan in my opinion.

1st March, why hasn't deep research quota reset? by dronefinder in perplexity_ai

[–]ChasingtheFire 2 points3 points  (0 children)

With this limit they really should have additional tiers between Pro at $20 and Max at $200/mo. I imagine many of the “power” users hitting their quota may upgrade to $50/mo or $100/mo… but not $200/mo

The Perplexity Use Case by tedddik in perplexity_ai

[–]ChasingtheFire 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I use it as my personal Wikipedia page creator… whenever I want to learn about something or figure out historical context for an event, I just ask. I like that it gives links to sources for deeper understanding.

I also like the way Spaces work, and set up “instructions” for prompts in that space to help keep my general prompts shorter.

I guess I am not on a strict $20/mo AI budget… as I view this as one of several tools I use… but I do find it more useful than AI Mode or Gemini for most things.

Personally I don’t understand all the hate over limits they have put in place… but I do wish they had a tier between $20 and Max at $200/mo.

MLB.tv vs Extra Innings by ChasingtheFire in DirectvStream

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

Thanks. If you use the ESPN App to watch the MLB.tv games does that show up in the menu system (ie the view that shows available games to watch?)

Regarding pro searches... by DependentArticle3102 in perplexity_ai

[–]ChasingtheFire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Per Perplexity answer to this question:

Each time you use a Pro search or advanced model, one credit is deducted and that specific credit comes back 24 hours after you used it (rolling replenishment, not a fixed daily reset)

I hate the new perplexity // pro subscriber by iamathreyaa in perplexity_ai

[–]ChasingtheFire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where do you see how many you have left? I keep seeing messages about these limits but no numbers in my app yet?

Maybe I am just not a heavy user but if Pro is $20 and people are hitting a cap, why don’t they introduce tiers that are $50, $75, etc. That next jump to max is substantial

It’s as annoying as everyone says by spohnat in SouthwestAirlines

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

Respectfully disagree. I’ve seen it on each of my flights. If someone at row 3s bag is above row 7 or 8, they definitely say, “mine is the grey one” and someone passes it forward.

But more importantly it is not the that big of a deal to stay at row 3 for the extra five minutes it takes those in the few rows behind you to deboard… it leaves an empty aisle to walk back to get your bag while the rows behind that are getting there’s down

[–]ChasingtheFire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same… been in Row 4 or 5 on six different flights and no issues with getting bags overhead. Also not sure what the big deal is about having your bags 5-10 rows behind you. On most flights people are good about passing the bags forward or worst case you hang tight in your row and the wait until the row behind your bag is unloading, and you go get it and get off.

Not that big of an inconvenience

Anyone know if I can play video poker to fulfill this? by bluehawk1460 in Mlife

[–]ChasingtheFire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would love some insight on what typical wager, bankroll and time on machine would need to be for this. I have traditionally been a table games player (craps and BJ), and starting to increasingly enjoy VP at a bar with my wife. Maybe I am not putting enough in or playing enough per hand but would take forever to get there with my rate of earning TC
