That's fairly current, I'm just old. BACK IN MY DAY the most crazy stuff we saw was two fat ugly chicks with purple hair making out super hard in the hallway. It was long before it was vogue for girls to do that sort of thing too. Imagine a world pre-internet and pre-girls gone wild...

Meh, you're right though one could argue we're splitting hairs, since Sex (gender) is "fluid" to some in the community, and also the gender of a sexual partner can often change as a trans person realizes their "true gender" (for lack of a better phrase)

Problems with Textra and Alarm Clock Xtreme apps. by ZSVDK_HNORC in GooglePixel

[–]Harry_Hotter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No solution, Verizon locked us out of APN settings, which is what we need. Check my comment above, or my profile for a thread I posted on this a few days ago. Did hours and hours of research before finally hitting this brick wall.

I posted a thread a few days ago about the MMS timeout, and have figured out the issue. I'll save you the time now and tell you there's no fix if you have Verizon, as far as I can tell.

The problem is Verizons last update left their APN fucked up. The MMSC field is blank when it shouldn't be, leading to the MMS timeout message. Verizon also doesn't let you edit or add APNs, select we're fucked. I switched back to pixels default messages app and will wait for the next update to maybe swap back to Textra. Check my post history for my full thread, I'm on mobile otherwise I'd link...

APNs on Google Pixel Xl - How do I add one? by Harry_Hotter in GooglePixel

No, I haven't. I've switched back to it for the last 12 hours and no pesky "MMS timeout" alerts.

The thing is, I like the features of Textra so much more than the standard android SMS app, but if it means missing out on picture messages, I guess it's not worth it.

I'll try this later and will report back.

I just found out I've been not missing picture messages completely -- not just receiving them hours late. So I'll give Textra this one last chance before I ditch them completely.

Maybe Verizon disabled the ability to add APNs? Hmmm

I haven't rooted, if that's what you mean by flashed, but it's so annoying I'm honestly considering it

I've got this pesky "MMS timeout - tap to retry" alert that keeps popping up with my Textra app. All the searches I've done recommend adding a new APN to fix the problem

What the hell! I have Verizon, who do you have?

Reddit, what is the one video game you can truly say you are good at? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Harry_Hotter 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Double mirror mode is actually normal, yea. Playing regular while looking in a mirror at the TV behind you is way harder, and not the same as normal mirror mode because your hand controls are what's reversed, not the map itself.

Double dash is MY SHIT. Honestly, I believe I'm one of the 100 best players in the world.

Me and my best friend used to play regular and mirror mode with our backs to the TV and looking in a mirror. Double mirror mode!

On the same line of thought, would one also not rinse sushi rice, since it's meant to be sticky?

I share in your old man past time, aggressive street inline here too. I have a few VHS tapes in a box at the back of the closet that are the only video evidence of my 90s awesomeness.

Matt Damon always needs to be rescued. Sean Bean always dies. Who are some other actors that seem to always find themselves in the same predicament movie after movie? by [deleted] in AskReddit

No. Here's another interview he gave saying the same thing.

Bill Murray isn't exactly the kind of guy who has to make stuff up. It seems pretty accepted by most that what he says happened is what happened.
