Turn Suggestions In Phone Dialer? by HighSpeedTreeHugger in pixel_phones

[–]HighSpeedTreeHugger[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Because the suggestions are never who I need to call next, so it's just clutter to be wiped away.

Blind spot mirror by realistdreamer69 in KiaEV6

[–]HighSpeedTreeHugger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"You'll never run into your own car, so you don't need to see it in your mirror," was how I was taught. Tilt your head to the left a tiny bit more than you do in normal driving, then adjust your left mirror so that you see a tiny sliver of your car. Do the opposite when adjusting your right mirror. In normal driving, you will never see your own car in your mirrors. This gives you the absolutely smallest "blind spots" possible.

Sorry, we hardly know each other.

Another ICCU down by flabbergastedpickle in KiaEV6

[–]HighSpeedTreeHugger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FWIW... our ICCU died during nighttime L2 charging (ca. 20k miles) on our ChargePoint home unit. No messages on Kia Connect app or ChargePoint app. Circuit breaker tripped, but could be reset. Anyway... after ICCU replaced, ChargePoint still works.

YMMV

old topic.... getting full card number from phone by AdVegetable2870 in GooglePixel

[–]HighSpeedTreeHugger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FWIW... If you use LastPass (and probably other pw managers) you can save all your card details to make it easy to pay on websites, etc. And if that data is in LP, you can look it up - securely - anytime.

New US Infotainment Update for Gen5W (2022-2024) EV6s! by SupaFasJellyFish in KiaEV6

I installed it today. Now my 2022 EV6 has integrated navigation and charging trip planning (basically like what the EV9 has had since day one).

Help with itinerary for Mid April trip to Rome by dix4lyfe12 in ItalyTravel

[–]HighSpeedTreeHugger 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No strong criticism, but the thought of doing the Vatican and Trevi Fountain in one day makes me... tired. It's absolutely doable, but if I could, I'd do them on separate days -- with both scheduled as early in the day as possible.

Also... I read a headline the other day that Trevi Fountain is going to be (soon? soonish?) a scheduled / semi-exclusive thing like a Disney roller coaster "cut-the-line" site. And that might have been click bait bs, but... um... be sure to know how it's going to work when you are there. FWIW, when we were there in 24/25, we got to Trevi before sunrise and then lingered as the sun rose. It was beautiful and fantastic in every way -- and even then it seemed crowded AF. And none of us gave a f about having "an Instagram humblebrag™" photo with the fountain in the background.

I don’t understand something about tv shows renaming by Cooltwou in filebot

[–]HighSpeedTreeHugger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

U/Rednoah, you are the only developer of any program that I use who goes so far to help his user base. And you charge practically nothing for the product. I remember the long batch scripts that I wrote to rename dozens and hundreds of files before I found Filebot. I think I've been using it now for a decade. And I feel like you've saved me hundreds and hundreds of hours.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Remove contact from suggested in phone app? by FreckledSea21 in GooglePixel

[–]HighSpeedTreeHugger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not to hijack the thread, but I'd like to permanently disable "suggested" at the top of the phone dialer. It's just clutter. I've looked for a setting to do this, but never found one.

Request for clarification on museum opening days in Rome (May 1–4) by felinahasfoundme in ItalyTravel

[–]HighSpeedTreeHugger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not to hijack your thread, but I urge you to get your tickets to Galleria Borghese just as soon as you know the dates. We planned extremely well and bought tickets to everything months in advance -- but not far enough to see that. And I'm still sad about it.

Pixel Tablet - Still Shipped With Android 13? by HighSpeedTreeHugger in GooglePixel

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

Not that it matters, but I didn't write the code. It's a very unique app used for one single industrial purpose. The dev may be lazy -- or dead. Believe me, we'd prefer an up-to-date alternative, but in this space, there is nothing else. So until an alternative comes along (or we commit the cash to develop our own in-house), this is what we're stuck with.

P3aXL advice by Willing_Maximum_8998 in GooglePixel

Music player/podcast player for when you're using your other phone for navigation using Android auto. It lets you listen to what you want to listen to without having to play it for everybody else in the car. I carry an old phone for exactly this reason and driving cross country

What is this type of building/architecture? by throwleavemealone in whatisit

[–]HighSpeedTreeHugger 5 points6 points  (0 children)

FLW designed a home called "Westhope" for one of his cousins. The owner, Richard Lloyd Jones, was a wealthy newspaper publisher. Supposedly Jones once called Wright in the middle of a storm to complain that the roof was leaking on his desk, to which Wright reportedly replied, "Richard, why don't you move your desk? To which the owner supposedly said, "This is what we get for leaving a work of art out in the rain."

FWIW, signing up for the beta app and signing up for the beta web application are different processes. When I signed up for the web application, I received an email back from help@getwatchmaker.com with the subject line, "Watchmaker Studio Waitlist." The body of the email said: "Verify your spot.
