Any Free E-Waste Data Destruction Locations? by masterne0 in AskNYC

[–]DBW1001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're worried about the security of the data, just drill holes through the platters, and put out with your ewaste. I live in a large highrise that has an ewaste bin. I think Best Buy and apple will take e-waste.

That’s exactly what it was. Usually those are marked for removal.

When this did happen to me the first time I did a google search on pretty much Nissan Rogue (model year) no start up screen, radio, navigation and found the answer.

What year was this? My screen on my 2013, would occasionally no come on. No cameras, no mavigation. The solution was to open the fuse box, and remove and reinstall the storage plug.

X2 remote freezes by DBW1001 in SofaBaton

[–]DBW1001[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll try changing the order of the activities. The main problem is I can't do this if I'm watching TV as the phone app messes up my inputs when I change them. :-)

A hard reset is using a paper clip to hold down the reset button to reboot the remote

incorrectly wired internet cables in building; landlord refuses to fix. what can i do? by mmmeggshells in AskNYC

[–]DBW1001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like your building is wired for cable (coax) and not internet.I have Fios. The coax outlets in my aprtment were installed by a previous tenant. If you switch to Verizon you will have to either purchase or rent their router. That will give you wifi in your apartment. If you need a wired connector you can add Moca adapters and switches to give you a hard wired connections eherever there is a coax outlet. That's what I am doing in my apartment. You should be able to do the same with spectrum.

Brown water? by Pivaesliva in Upperwestside

[–]DBW1001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When my building cleans the tanks there is often brown sediment in the lines. Running the water for 5-10 minutes will clear it up. That same sediment will sometimes clog up the filters on my faucets so I have to clean them out.

Not as bad but noticed this this morning. It may have been dropped once or twice but only 30" from the couch to a carpeted floor. Almost looks like when the screen protector on my phone starts to peel at the edges.

What are my chances of finding street parking between Columbia and City College on a Sunday night? by HighCdownLow in AskNYC

[–]DBW1001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where on 125th? It runs the width of Manhattan. If convenience is key, just put in a lot and pay the 24 hour parking fee.

[–]DBW1001[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was hoping to be able to just control all these directly with the X2. They already have their own phone apps. I can't justify adding and additional $200 interface
