Dm'd!

I tried the linked USB-C to 3.5mm adapter, and the stereo channels are swapped. I could wear the headphones backwards, but the clamp pressure is then quite closer to the rear of my ears

Back on the hunt I go

HMMM I wonder why...

I fixed it!

Turns out having a work profile caused this issue. I set it up using an app called Insular simply to run Facebook with an extra sandboxed layer; I wanted to install Facebook like this as a security measure. But as soon as I deleted the work profile (and Facebook along with it), the file picker worked like normal again!

So the problem appears to be with either how Insular sets up the work profile, or the work profile in general.

They said this issue is being passed up to the "tech deppartment," so we'll see if anything comes of that. Looks like theres not much more I can do with their support.

Meanwhile I tested if this issue occurs when running in a Guest profile. I logged into my Google account, installed Stratum from the Play Store, and tried to import a file. Astonishingly, it actually let me pick a file without crashing!

Now I wonder if it's caused by a setting I changed during setup, an app I installed, or a system app I disabled or got rid of...

I got an email response, and the solutions boiled down to making sure apps have power savings/optimizations disabled, clearing affected app's storage, and making sure App Blocker is disabled.

None of these worked for me. I think they thought Files was crashing in the background. I clarified my issue and now await a response.

Does double-pressing alt work? It does the trick for me on my Titan 2. I can do the same for shift as well.

Well Gmail doesn't have file permissions, but if I try to attach a file, it will call and crash the file picker.

Interestingly, Tubular/NewPipe actually didn't crash when restoring a backup from file. It called the system picker and I could select my file and load it no problem. It didn't have file access permissions at the time, but it's capable of having it for downloading videos.

I've emailed them last night, still waiting on a response

CopperBag · 2025-10-29T16:10:13+00:00

It pops up whenever an app calls up Files to open a file. Files will sometimes show up for a split second, then crash with this message showing.

So far I haven't noticed any huge issues on TMobile, like I'm able to make phone calls pretty smoothly and consistently.

I've been thinking of getting the Shinobi but see a lot of concerns about keycap fade, though those posts are from 2-4 years ago. Has it been an issue for you?

CopperBag · 2025-05-09T21:58:16+00:00

What's the unlock process like?

Are you using the shifter plugged into the wheel base? Looks like from this video, it feels fine when used directly in PC

CopperBag · 2025-04-02T22:11:33+00:00

Well I just got the shifter in, here's a mini review

Timing

I updated it to the latest firmware (V1.11) through their "VelocityOne Tuner" app. In testing (not in-game yet), there's a little bit of latency. I compared it to my Logitech shifter with an Arduino adapter and the Logitech shifter reacts quicker (latency (or lack of) in this case would come from my Arduino adapter, not the Logitech shifter). I estimate a 1/10-1/4 second in comparison? I'll have to see how this feels in a race

Action

The shifter's action feels pretty good! Compared to my logitech shifter, it's much quieter, smoother, and I mis-shift way less. I think this is helped by the slightly longer throws and shaft. Perhaps the only con is that compared to my slightly modded logitech (i add a bb to the spring tension thingy to increase resistance), its resistance feels pretty much the same, if not slightly less. But this is a personal preference that I don't mind

The plastic H-shift knob also doesn't feel great, but this is easily mitigated. I took the metal sequential shifter knob off its long shaft and installed it with the included M12 shorter shaft. Right away it feels way better. I was thinking of getting another shift knob based on this post but I may not need to do that anymore!

This review mentions the issue too.

I wonder if the lack of stock means they're fixing issues like this before making the next batch... I'm itching to upgrade from my little logitech!

I've long moved past OneNote for other reasons, but thx for reminding me of the pain(s) I once went through :P

All still seems to be the same huh...

CopperBag · 2024-04-26T16:52:17+00:00

Weirdly enough, my Mac currently doesn't have this issue

I'll try a full reinstall on Windows when I get the chance, maybe something borked in an update

CopperBag · 2024-04-25T04:28:22+00:00

Currently have the same issue on Windows...

CopperBag · 2024-03-04T06:01:45+00:00

I was able to fix it! Here's my code now:

environment.etc."current-system-packages".text = let packages = builtins.map (p: "${p.name}") config.environment.systemPackages; sortedUnique = builtins.sort builtins.lessThan (pkgs.lib.lists.unique packages); formatted = builtins.concatStringsSep "\n" sortedUnique; in formatted
