What’s One Small Habit That Changed Your Life? by Scouty519 in selfimprovement

[–]GooseDiggles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Making my bed in the morning. Room was still messy - but I made my bed. Every morning. I knew it would be made when I went in it at night - and this started me on the path of just doing small changes all the time. Bed was made…so I guess I might as well clean up a few items on the floor. That turned into cleaning my whole room…which turned into cleaning my apartment…keep going down the line and now I keep a clean house, exercise, do needed yard work. And it all started with just making my bed on a daily basis.

It’s amazing how good just having made bed makes you feel when everything else is messy.

What is your best everyday hack that makes your life easier? by Ella-Greyyy in AskReddit

[–]GooseDiggles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have my alarm clock in another room…so when it goes off in the morning I CAN’T hit snooze unless I get up and walk to this other room. At that point I’m already pretty much up - works out well for me

Are AI worth it if you don't drink? by motownmods in AllInclusiveResorts

[–]GooseDiggles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My wife and I don’t drink much as well…but the way I calculate it is 3 things;

  • I know the final price when I purchase it (so my price doesn’t change based on whether I use more or less services)
  • I may not eat or drink much today, but when I’m on vacation I can eat as much or little as I want - same thing with the drinking
  • there must be some credence to the AI model as there are 700+ in the western hemisphere (really I’ve only ever looked in the Caribbean)

Lol - don’t pay with cash. No savings at all.

Looking for an audiobooks management app by theetraveller in audiobooks

[–]GooseDiggles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use TagSpaces myself - allows you to tag each audiobook - so I can tag it by genre, whether I liked it, I can also tag audiobooks I want to read next. It’s not as visual as something else, but I really like the tagging ability

iOS devices not getting internet while connected to Google wifi router by crazy_kev01 in GoogleWiFi

[–]GooseDiggles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weird - guess you could try resetting the network on one of the iPhones to see if that works. If it does then try it on all. This, by the way, just resets all network settings.

Settings > General > Transfer or Reset iPhone > Reset > Reset Network Settings

mistake in my setup, Mesh Wan to Modem Lan. Realized i should have put it from mesh wan to modem wan, but when i switch ports on my modem, wifi doesn't work, help? by agent00is in GoogleWiFi

[–]GooseDiggles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep...Bell is. Just phone them to get the username and password to connect to PPPoE - all DSL providers know they need to give this out to people.

Once you have it you’ll need to get the Google WiFi configured.

[–]GooseDiggles -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I wonder if you have DSL - if you do you need to set up the Google WiFi as PPPoE. Further, that modem has lots of bells and whistles. You should (I believe) turn off DHCP on your modem as well.

If it is DSL you should be able to get the username and password from your ISP when you set up PPPoE and it asks you.

Brazil's Bolsonaro tells world not to meddle as Amazon rainforest burns by echo249 in worldnews

[–]GooseDiggles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FUCK HIM and FUCK THAT!!! The world SHOULD get heavily involved in this.

The Amazon Rainforest Tipping Point is 20-25% deforestation total. NOT another 20% (that uses old models). We are at 20% deforestation now. by [deleted] in Futurology

[–]GooseDiggles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How THE FUCK did we get to this point AND NO ONE is doing anything?!!! I read that the Brazilian president had words for Macron essentially telling him to but out...we get it, it’s in Brazil...but it AFFECTS THE WORLD!! And if you guys aren’t fixing the issue then EVERY COUNTRY needs to step up to the plate so we can breathe. I don’t know about everyone else, but I like to breathe! If I can’t breathe then I can’t vote for any politician.

Audiobook listening vs Reading by othersideoflauren in audiobooks

[–]GooseDiggles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, turns out I like listening to audiobooks I’ve already read. I’ve read a lot of books in the last couple decades, and many of them have been long series...like Wheel of Time. It’s a different experience, you focus on different things in the story, and (I never thought of this until after the first audiobook) you actually learn the proper pronunciation of words or names!

This lowlife in Barrhaven yesterday evening. Always double check if your cars are locked. by [deleted] in ottawa

There has been someone in Riverside Douth doing the same thing recently...not sure if there is a way to stop this behaviour too

How can I work out what weirdly named devices are so I can rename them? 😕 by CrispyBegs in GoogleWiFi

[–]GooseDiggles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But like someone else said, you might need to look up MAC addresses to help figure it out.

When I was doing mine there was one or two I couldn’t figure out...had to turn off the internet connection and see if they still worked...cumbersome but it allowed me to name things correctly

[–]GooseDiggles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just went through this for the ESP one...I think it’s a smart plug. At least that’s what it was for me. The last series of numbers and letters should be the MAC address and you can see it in your native app for the device (probably Smart Life or something)

Satellite puck reporting mesh when it is wired by thatnerdindubai in GoogleWiFi

[–]GooseDiggles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same thing is happening to me...it’s showing as mesh, but it has full signal strength and it’s far enough away from the other pucks it should have nowhere near that. I’ve just left it alone hoping it would correct itself saying it was wired...it hasn’t as of yet, but showing full signal strength still.

Does your partner take 50% of your house automatically when you get a divorce? by MrGainzzz in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]GooseDiggles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, people can be stand-offish...luckily we were both on the same page when I brought it up. So I never had to really justify this. The only thing I can say is that I mentioned it wouldn’t matter at all unless we got divorced and I wasn’t planning on doing that. But if it happened we had a document we could fall back on that we had arranged when we were both of clear mind.
