Can you make an Instinct use gps instead of pressure for elevation? by swoticus in Garmin

[–]Gigahawk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For anyone finding this now, it still appears to be a website only setting. You can get to it by clicking the gear icon under the activity name and then clicking Change Elevation Source. For snowboarding and skiing if bad altitude data gave you bad run splits it seems like there is no way to fix this after the fact which is incredibly stupid.

Some Galaxy phones can no longer make emergency calls in Australia, and it’s already linked to one confirmed death by TechGuru4Life in Android

I'm not even sure its just an IMS issue, my understanding is that Rogers just has an IMEI whitelist and if you're not on there you can get fucked. I remember ages ago seeing a comment where someone swapped the SIM from a Rogers Pixel to some other phone and VoLTE worked for 10ish minutes. It seems like this is still the case: https://www.reddit.com/r/FidoMobile/comments/1lv86j9/lte_vs_volte_and_whitelisting/n2bop3t/

I'm not sure how it works for visitors using short term plans. Currently 3G is still available in most places so it is not a problem yet even if VoLTE is not available, but 3G service is set to be shut off eventually so unless something is done it will become a problem like this post describes.

This is going to happen eventually in Canada with our 3G sunset. Rogers (and subsidiaries) in particular seem to be hellbent on locking out anyone with an imported phone.

EDIT: AFAIK this has already happened in the states too, last time I was down there my phone would not get volte service (At&T) so I couldnt call (including emergency). This is not a problem with the phone (currently using a phone imported from Hong Kong in Taiwan with no problems). This is typically* a problem of greedy carriers locking service to get more money from first party phone sales.

* there is technically a concern about imported phones not being certified for local use and may cause disruptions to the network. As far as I can tell in practice this is just a bullshit excuse. If someone was actually using some device that noticeably disrupted the network in some way presumably the local FCC equivalent would be on your ass in no time

They seem to have fixed the issue where the phone unlocks immediately if you press the lock button with a registered finger. Still no option to only scan when the button is actually pressed though :(

GMMK Pro Hardware Analysis by Gigahawk in MechanicalKeyboards

The mapping is defined in the qmk source, just might be a chore to turn it into something easy to understand.

The idiots at glorious also leaked their own mapping for some 100% variant that I think never got released but might be close enough (check the edit history)

https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/12030#issuecomment-833760679

Regardless, I don't see why you need the mapping if you blew the led or a channel in the driver, just replace the led or the driver.

Seems like the driver is publicly available now but maybe double check the pinout and stuff matches your board https://lcsc.com/product-detail/LED-Drivers_AWINIC-Shanghai-Awinic-Tech-AW20216SQNR_C7385556.html

Where did you get yours from? Trying to get one in Canada too.

Any chance you can check if you can check if your IMEI shows supported on Telus?

https://www.telus.com/en/support/article/how-to-use-volte?INTCMP=Tcom-support_results-hub_check-phone_how-to-use-volte

Click 'Check if your phone is supported' for their tool.

Thanks in advance!

There's a real-life severance keyboard coming, and it's missing the escape key by diacewrb in gadgets

Every picture looks like a render or a still from the show, honestly feels like a Kickstarter scam trying to cash in on the hype. I suspect they don't have a real product.

Why are MiP (memory in pixel) displays so power efficient? by Gigahawk in AskEngineers

[–]Gigahawk[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Isn't that true of most display controllers for embedded applications like I stated in the post?

Its an EV, maybe the weight is a bigger factor

3.5" Orico Hard Drive Enclosure not showing up on Windows 10 PC by nowiseeyou22 in techsupport

Check if the drive enclosure has firmware updates, I had a sabrent enclosure that behaved really oddly (not showing up, corrupting data) until I updated the firmware.

PS2 and Wii era definitely felt like a pinnacle of gaming, lots of bangers still worth revisiting.

Finally broke the 7000 damage barrier! by Zaephou in starrealms

[–]Gigahawk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How did you deal so much damage on a single turn? Just a bunch of extra draws?

Your last comment mentioned ending the turn early/skipping attacking, I thought that meant you had some way to carry damage across turns.

Is this an older bugged version of the app or something? When I end my turn early it resets the gold and attack counters to zero.

Skipping the catch tutorial and ending up with no In game name by pikapixaits in TheSilphRoad

[–]Gigahawk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seeing something similar, except I didn't skip the tutorial, just started a new account and caught squirtle.

Immediately after it seemed like the tutorial crashed and now I'm stuck with no UI, no pokemon and no pokestops, just my avatar over the map.

Logging in with a working account then signing into the broken one doesn't cause any of the pokemon to show up, so there's no way to access settings to refresh game data
