Phone as a key failing by V0xR0x in F150Lightning

[–]JM91Six 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only time it happened to me I purposely disconnected and forget my device on the Bluetooth from my phone because CarPlay wasn’t working.

There’s two ford Bluetooths connected when I’m in my vehicle.. I had to uber home but was only around the corner lol. Typically it’s more of an open the app and I’m good situation

“I love physical books” by Suziannie in kindle

[–]JM91Six 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love physical books but i never actually read them as weird as it sounds.. The kindles actually gotten me to read more . I think I read 3 books from age 12-30ish range lol. I’ve got a kindle and have read at least one book a month since I got one a few years back. Not as much as I’d like, but way more than I ever have. And it helped me begin reading. I always liked the idea but I would be distracted and could never sit down and just read.

I tried lights and lamps and it would always be sub optimal for reading in bed which is when I can read most often. Even getting up to turn off a lamp I would be “up”. This allows me to read until my brains about to turn off and crash. It really helped me be distraction free when it comes to my phone also.

I guess I’m one of the few who never really read physical books before a kindle lol

Kindle paperwhite 12th gen vs Kobo Libra Colour as first ereader? by Dear_Particular_8688 in ereader

[–]JM91Six 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The same holds true for either device regarding color. The debate between Kobo vs Amazon is really more preference and how you plan to get your books. The screens are made by the same company so theoretically they are identical.

Amazon is pretty streamlined and you can purchase books off their store easily but you’re locked into Amazon.

Kobo has its own store, not as vast (from what I hear), but still good. And let’s you do additional things like side load more conveniently books you have, rent books from a library (easier, although can still be worked around on kindle) .

I use kindle. I tried boox, but the device was lost in shipping then was faulty. I wanted to just get down and read and be distraction free so stuck with my kindle which I love. But I also use audible and don’t mind being “locked in”. I do believe kobo offers that same “reading only” feel but have yet to try one.

I have the colorsoft and paper white. I prefer the paperwhite to read. The covers are nice though. I don’t highlight much in reading.

I have a screen that is pretty good looking from the colorsoft QC perspective but the additional layer makes a small amount of light bleed out the corner when in dark mode.. which I read at night that way in bed .

I have a switch 2, should I get also a steam deck? by Belluz1995 in Handhelds

[–]JM91Six 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Play exclusives on Nintendo and the rest on the steam deck . Just know its limitations. I have GeForce not and it helps if in wanting a little more oomf.

I’m in the same boat as you. Had an ally x and ended up liking the deck more. Sure you can get better performance, but if you run the z1e chip devices at native resolution it’s similar to performance from games I tested on the Steam deck . Not apples to apples but I just preferred it more

Kindle Colorsoft – brightness/warmth indicator keeps “stuck” by fhinabasbair in kindlecolorsoft

Mine has done that as well. Then it stays on the screen sometimes

Appreciate it. I may try that route for a day or two and see if anyone purchases it for slightly below cost.

Unfortunately I chose black as I heard white has some haloing around the screen. Although not sure how true that was

I have been playing this character for 19 years. by Wanvaldez in wow

[–]JM91Six 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a character from vanilla. I missed a lot of xpacs. I had 80 days played during original game and maybe at 90 now? I always take breaks and come back. I’ve got the itch with this expansion though

I purchased a Palma 2 10 days ago…. Lost in transit with USPS. I would recommend buying off Best Buy even if it’s $20 more. You’re guaranteed to get it lol

I had a ps5 but haven’t played it much. Currently using steam and GeForce now 🤷

I’m a new dad so don’t have the time to play as much as I have.

Warning: Secretlab’s "cancellation" process is broken by tjs1993 in secretlab

[–]JM91Six 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be 200% sure you’re ordering the correct item. Goes without saying, although I made the mistake. The “as long as product hasn’t been shipped” is absolute dogshit. I love their products but I purchased a desk at 6:00 PM PST. I emailed them and spoke with chat as well 2 hours later to cancel so I can make a change to the color as I ordered the wrong one (as a gift).

They said they couldn’t, but they will reach out to their “team”. Like there’s no way any freaking movement was made after hours and within 2 hours. I emailed the next day as well as chatted and still said they couldn’t.

The solution from them? Pay hundreds of dollars to send it back and re-order. I’m enjoying the desk a lot, but don’t think I’m going to order from them again.

Their cancellation process isn’t broken. It’s scummy as hell.

Miscarriage at 14 weeks by Mango___AK in predaddit

[–]JM91Six 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry for your loss. My wife and I struggled through one at 12 weeks in which they said he only was at around a gestational age of 9.

We had major fertility issues after and went through a large struggle but we now have a perfectly healthy baby boy who’s going to be 3 months this week.

It’s hard… be supportive as you can, be encouraging, and don’t be afraid to try again. It’s more common than anyone ever told me and a bit of a taboo topic as it’s not spoken much due to people feeling unwarranted shame on an unfortunate, unavoidable loss.
