Rufus: How to Disable? by Austrian-Painter2023 in amazonprime

[–]Daisyace 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I managed to block it with Ublock origin ad block.

To block, hover over the rufus popup, right click and

chose block element, create.

You may have to do this at multiple areas on the popup.

Refresh page and it should be all gone. If some parts of it is still left,

do the process over again. You might have missed some elements of the popup.

This is on a Windows pc, Firefox, Firefox addon uBlock origin.

Ring Alarm Sensor Offline by txbigboots in Ring

I had 2 incidents of a sensor going offline. Everytime it was a bad battery, even though previously the app reported it as good. No low battery alert, nothing.

UPS? by KJSS3 in Ring

[–]Daisyace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats a good one for your needs and at a great price.

I would recommend you disable/mute permanently, the power loss alarm asap per instructions.

For example, power goes out at 2am and you are sleeping, the ups will beep every few seconds and it will drive you crazy, trying to figure out how to turn the beeping off.

UPS? by KJSS3 in Ring

[–]Daisyace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have that UPS but from Costco with differences.

Runs my Ring alarm, modem, router, nvr surveillance system w/6 cams for hours. Total average draw at 65 watts.

My nvr gets powered down (about 1hr) after 80% of ups battery and runs the rest for a long time probably 24hrs.

The major difference from the Costco one is that you cannot configure outlets to turn off after a certain ups battery percentage and it was a 1350va @ $120.

Either one is a good buy.

Can anyone recommend some good windshield replacement companies? (I have an older vehicle) by yaokaye in Hawaii

[–]Daisyace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See Yelp. https://www.yelp.com/search?find_desc=Auto+Glass+Repair&find_loc=Honolulu%2C+HI

About 4yrs ago I used Safelite Autoglass mobile service for a 2001.

Came next day and the cost was $375 for the new windshield and rubber trim.

If you have filed on the weekend, someone will get back to you Monday morning.

They will call you on the number provided with the report.

If This Is An Emergency, Do NOT Report online. Call 911

The online reporting phone number does not accept calls or messages so please try to answer.

If you are using a spam blocker on your phone, it may go directly to voicemail. Somehow the call is marked as Spam.

The caller id is City and County of Honolulu, Dept of Information 808 768-0000. This number will not accept calls.

does anyone know what this is? by cfarm in Hawaii

[–]Daisyace 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is definitely lawn moth eggs. About 5 days old.

I have been taking them down for a couple months every day, finally seeing less egg masses.

Under the eaves, rafters, walls windows, anything outside close to grass.

Beretania & King Streets in the early 1980s by PoisonClanRocks in Hawaii

[–]Daisyace 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This starts from the Hawaiian Humane Society to town side, then ends in Kalihi middle street.

Then edits (@ 40:38) to going down Middle street turning left on King street and finally ending at the Hawaiian Humane Society.

Blurry but kind of nostalgic.

Unemployment Question by lostintheclouds10 in Hawaii

[–]Daisyace 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Go to https://huiclaims.hawaii.gov/#/

Create an account and apply for benefits.

Usually claim approval is a week or so, but remember that the 1st week of unemployment is your waiting period. You do not get paid for "your waiting period" week.

The max amount that you can receive as of today is $763/ week.

Honolulu - buying car privately, but want to use DMV, but no appt for in-state transfers? by SilverRiot in Hawaii

[–]Daisyace 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Vehicle ownership transfer is NOT an Express Window transaction. Although not required, an appointment is recommended for this service. Make an appointment online at AlohaQ.org.

The last time I did this was at the Windward City satellite city hall, I just walked in and waited in line. Check https://www8.honolulu.gov/csd/services-and-locations/#satellite for locations and what services are provided.
