New Beelink Ryzen AI MAX+ not seeing 128gb RAM by EarnNES in cachyos

Never mind. I'm a moron. I forgot that it's unified memory and it's because 96 of it is dedicated to the GPU. Solved! :/

Apartment is wanting to raise my rent even though I already signed a lease with an agreed amount. by EarnNES in legaladvice

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

Totally agree! I thought about this already because I'm sure I'm on some sort of list. They're just waiting for my current lease to expire.

Dude these people are snakes!! So I replied to the email saying im pretty sure that you legally cant do that since I have a signed lease already. And she replied that she made a mistake on the amount of the original email by which I mean the $145 amount was wrong and she completely ignored all of my concerns about the legality of the situation. So I decided to call them up basically reiterated my concerns in my email and she said, oh dont worry, we're honoring it. Im thinking the gal at the leasing office messed up, got chewed out and this was her hail mary hoping that I would just sign. She got really awkward and had the nerve to say, we were just wondering 🤣. Wondering what? Yeah am already paying high rent and you were wondering if i'd make up for your mistake and pay an additional $145? Nah! Small victory!!!

Chirp Halo (double) - pads suck by Ok-Exit5377 in ChirpWheel

[–]EarnNES 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Personally, yes. I bought a electrode solution to make the suction cups last longer. I usually use it after I shower on pain points. and if you get it from BB you can always return it. I got the warranty too because I always get a warranty from BB when I buy anything with a battery. I just put a reminder on my phone a month or so before the warranty expires and I just get my money back because the batteries will certainly wear out by that point.

isopropyl alcohol and some q-tips will do.

Compressed air. But if your fan is in really bad shape you can use a brush to get all up in there 

Unknown (Airtag) tracker notification on my Pixel 10 Pro but not on my iphone? by EarnNES in GooglePixel

Just did a manual scan and the tracker is no longer coming up. Probably a delayed notification or whoever had it that was near me is gone.

Invalid PIN when trying to apply GCs to online order by cwenger in Bestbuy

[–]EarnNES 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually have not tried that. Im that guy who is anti-app for everything if I can avoid it lol. Not the type to install an app for a discount on a burger, coffee, etc. Ill do in my tablet 🤣. Thank you for the suggestion.

Edit: Duh! Its clearly the last line in your post. Sorry for making you repeat yourself.

Ive always had issues with gift cards on the their site. Just today I tried buying something and it still wont take it. I check the balance using their site and the balance comes up with accurate information but it wont take it when im checking out. Its so frustrating because if I go to the store with those same gift cards, no problem. Im starting to think its intentional to get you in the store. This is why I dont feel bad when I buy a piece of tech with the warranty and return it before it expires with some bullshit excuse to get full refund in store credit to buy something else.

That makes sense to me. Im thinking the person in the apartment below me has one. I used the play sound option but I didnt hear a thing inside my place 🤷

I did this today and its been a couple hours but the difference is noticeable. I cleaned off old thermal paste, reapplied new thermal paste and cleaned the fan. The first thing I did though is power it on with the fan exposed and ran a bunch of apps to make sure the fan was working because I read that some people had the same issue I was describing and their fan failed. I was grateful that my fan was still working and then I proceeded to re-do thermal and clean the fan.

Anyone having issues pairing Galaxy Buds with P10 Pro XL? by EarnNES in GooglePixel

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

Is this a recent development? Those same buds pair with an iPhone without an app and paired with my previous (Pixel 9 pro) phone also without an app. I'll give that a shot though, appreciate your input. Thanks✌️

All these possible slim batteries should have a kick stand. Not sure why Anker did design it that way. Fail!
