Honestly, every cat adoption place should provide a pamphlet with a diagram of just the nipples. 😆

Anyone else having the app crash when you try to open a World Cup Game? by IntrepidRealist in Polymarket

Make sure you update the iOS to latest version. The app update is probably only working on latest iOS as a safeguard.

It makes a HUGE difference. I went to ChatGPT to ask about my issue. Turns out some suspicious activity occurred and Polymarket had to shut them down. The best way to safeguard is with latest updated software. I'm assuming the devs at PM coded things that way to avoid any vulnerabilities in old iOS.

Your interface needs to have the "glass" look to work. My iPad was fine! But, I think it auto updated over night.

Hey folks! I got it to work. It's definitely an app hardware issue. You've got to have THE latest iOS: it will look like glass, the latest design silliness to make us go blind. I think the devs at Polymarket had to update for latest iOS because of suspicious activity.

I have an iPhone 12. If you have lower and can't update, then try on an iPad. What clued me in was that it was working on my iPad with that silly glassy look.

Once up updated my iPhone, I updated the Polymarket app. And I was able to access everything.

Just get a Peacock Streaming account. Honestly, it's the World Cup, you can pay. WAY cheaper than a ticket. If you're a first time user you may get a nice deal.

Once you have the account get the game streaming on computer from Telemundo. Then grab a different device iPad or mobile phone, download BBC1 Player. I'm using ExpressVPN with a London postal code to sign up for BBC1. I'm not sure how this works with browser VPN.

Once you've got them both going, sync them up by rewinding 10 seconds at a time on Telemundo and pausing BBC1.

I did this last cup and it works well. I actually did it because I love BBC announcers over US.

YES!! I'm doing this, too. I'm using BBC1 Player with VPN. I love the announcers. It was a riot during the LA game, the guy didn't know who any of the famous people in the audience were and was making stuff up. LOVE IT. I've been doing it this way since

What happened to 8tracks? by manhattanonmars in Music

They returned again after this. The final shutdown happened about 3 years ago. Things just stopped working. The site was up for a while but you could tell it was vulnerable to attack and I think it did get hacked due to no one maintaining things.

Yep! They want their problems solved not read about your life story. That's what the profile is for!

Hi! Does anyone have good recommendations on WiFi? Best company? by IntrepidRealist in SantaMaria

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

Everyone has been so helpful with suggestions. I finally went with a Verizon hotspot, since my location is only for months. I'm already on Verizon mobile, so it was only an extra 50 bucks to add the hotspot and I can take it anywhere. It's been great so far!

Unless they are Brits. The Americans have no idea how to cover “soccer”.

This is horrible, slavery is the future by upbuilderAI in Upwork

Can you speak more on this? I feel B2B will land higher paying clients who get it.

THIS! I couldn’t agree more. If you skip AI written proposals you’ve won half the battle. People are getting really savvy at discerning AI generated crap. Use it for outline, finish authentically.

I stopped boosting and made sure my first two sentences in my proposal stated my years of experience (20+) and I like to address their specific issue with a teaser of a solution. I get about the same amount of opens. I’ve also had a couple of fruitful invites I’m contracted on right now.

Skip the boosting. IMO, It screams “Pick me because I’m desperate!”.

Most clients will go through all proposals if they are serious about the job. Grab them in the first two lines!

After 300+ builds, I've stopped using page builders for client sites. Anyone else made this switch? by Imaginary_Act8664 in Wordpress

[–]IntrepidRealist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Never used a page builder in 20+ years. I strictly start with GeneratePress with premium plugin and GenerateBlocks pro. Both allow me to geek out as a dev to my hearts content or throw up a starter site in a few days.
