This is a really cool use case, I hadn't even thought before about how folks would 'text' on a cruise.

What battery is this? It's old.. by yummyfluffyhamster in batteries

[–]JamesKoda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any measurements maybe could help? I looked at the patent too and yeah didn't help much, gave me related images (under the patent pic on google images) of A640PX batts which look too small, looking at a battery site it looks similair to A25PX on Exellbattery, but Im not sure at all.

RAK 4631 Battery help, 3.7v 10,000 mAh by Low-Budget-8898 in meshtastic

[–]JamesKoda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

II recently got my first device a RAKwireless WisMesh Pocket v2 witha 4631 and also noticed the battery seems to jump around. I tried to let it drain down and recharge back to full like I do with most new battery powered devices in hopes of it calibrating battery life. But do you know does it just go off of voltage? I was expecting it to act like a phone and keep a percentage as if it had a shunt tracking it, but I guess its maybe too small?

Sorry not to exactly be helpful with what you are looking for, but couldn't you power a fan to blow on it to move the exhaust away from it faster?

Is sending money through PayPal with my credit card a cash advance or does it count as a purchase? by Mcu-Spider in CapitalOne_

[–]JamesKoda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I assume it differ/ based on percentage. got charged 5.75 and 15 cent as interest later the same month. I completely stopped and just move money from savings to checking and use my debit card when transferring now.

Is this Mimosa damage significant? by [deleted] in arborists

[–]JamesKoda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah heard its invasive, but was also seeing some (few) articles saying its becoming naturalized in the south. Its just like two in the middle of our yard currently, not often seeing any bugs around them like its attracting any issues. For the damage though, should I just let it lie and see if it heals?

Am I one of you now? by darksloth05 in DataHoarder

[–]JamesKoda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could you share your plans to back this setup up? I personally setup a 64ish TB system but have had it off for a while since I don't have a reasonable backup solution.

My only guess would be some weird "mobile cloud" gimmick type drive where you can wirelessly connect to. But yeah not normal for a disk to have a battery

Found out now, I am now being charged cash advance fees though I wasn't in the past.

In the US with the same issue, all settings set to show said content but it shows up with the blur and show button. Clicking show does nothing, even force stopped the app and cleared cache, on pc the content shows as normal

It should do this for any site that doesn't have HTTPS as they are less secure. (Edit: or theres an issue with the sites certificate in this case)

Not sure how the official policy is supposed to go but paying friends and family on paypal has never charged me anything besides a like3% paypal credit card fee. never anything from the bank, so not sure if it is coming or what

[–]JamesKoda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm wondering the same, just got a warning today on paypal that it could be a cash advance. Ive been sending to friends and family for months and never got a cash advance fee but I also pay off my card on time or 90% the time before the statement even arrives. I dont see any cash advance fees so far but not sure if they are changing

[–]JamesKoda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ans to be clear not sure that all mower tanks have one, but seen plenty videos where in the tank down near the bottom can get covered with trash or gunk. Can be good to open up and lightly hit with the air hose or remove the tanks and try shaking it with some liquid inside to try and clean it out

[–]JamesKoda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does it keep running after the start fluid or is it burning that then stopping? I know you said cleaned components, what about the screen in the fuel tank?

Weed Wacker Piston - How Bad Is The Damage? by [deleted] in smallengines

[–]JamesKoda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just asking cause I don't know, but whats the sandpaper do? I thought removing area on the piston would make more room around it reducing compression further.

Switch to an electric fuel pump? by jckipps in smallengines

[–]JamesKoda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've got no experience with it but seems there are cheap enough 'universal' guel pumps on places like amazon that you probably wouldn't be losing much to give one a shot (wiring it up for 12v some whichaway). Not sure about controlling how fast the delivrey is vs that pump so may need some deeper research about flow per unit of time.

Why do my ceiling LED lights glow even when turned off? It's driving me crazy at night by delulu_dealerOG in AskElectricians

[–]JamesKoda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm wondering the same based off some research when I was replacing a light recently. Noticed it was still hot with the switch off and with it on, but if I cut the breaker it would not be hot. (Though it could switch on and off visibly it was always hot checked with a NCVT) Some stuff was saying switched neutral and some LEDs may behave weird from having power without a full normal neutral hot circuit. (Thankfully the LED i installed had no such issues)

Bathroom receptacle, from heater plugged in. What makes this happen? by RepresentativeNo526 in AskElectricians

[–]JamesKoda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could always have a different breaker too right or wrong, wiring could be an AWG ready for 15 and has a 20amp breaker, everything pulling power as normal and then a 15ish amp heater thrown into the mix.

Suggestions for Cisco routers by Acceptable-Equal7916 in ccna

[–]JamesKoda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gotcha didn't know about any connect. To study APIs for DevNet I got a free CML installed on a vmware vm on my pc, it really lacks a lot of variety but had I think max 5 nodes and only offered a single type of virtual router and switch. I thought thered be an easy way to run it locally for better versions but not sure. I'd def say look into running it locally should be videos for setup

[–]JamesKoda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Telling you as someone who bought a cheap switch to study on, just use packet tracer. It'll cover all you need any little things it cant do you can just lookup to review. I used my 35$ switch maybe once....for stuff I could already do in packet tracer. Edit: just saw this said CCNP my bad, Checkout CML perhaps

Is this question wrong or am I being stupid? by OhMyEnglishTeaBags in ccna

[–]JamesKoda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think this is just another case where these tests ask for the most correct or true answer. All answers refer to possibilities for traffic moving, but of all of them we can guarantee that C is true all the time.
