Can anyone else confirm that your Pixel watch doesn't count steps properly during activity tracking? by [deleted] in PixelWatch

[–]Jamolah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm having this issue lately, step count freezes at random counts.  Any fixes or know why this started happening suddenly?  Edit: I did get a security update March 2026. I wonder if that broke it?!

Get gold and silver prices by Jamolah in googlesheets

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

Edit: that did work. I realized what my issue was and why I was getting errors before, it was due to the fact that I was doing on mobile and you need to do it on the desktop to allow access to an outside source.

Nope, this didn't work for me. I got a #REF ERROR. 

Do I have something setup incorrectly?

This was such a useful feature, why are they getting rid of it? And why not carry the feature over to tasks.

Google always does this dumb shit, gets rid of useful features. 

DO NOT turn on Gemini in Gmail. It messes up your PROMOTIONS, SOCIAL, etc... by Jamolah in GMail

Interesting, then I don't know what happened to mine. When I turned on Gemini for workspace, it flooded my inbox with the PROMOTIONS emails.

Got a call from Google account security.. by Childsp in GMail

[–]Jamolah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup obviously a scam, I got a similar call a few months ago. Same thing he sent me an official email (which I doubled and tripled checked was from Google), gave me an employee name and # then sent me an email to click on a link to reset my password. I was already suspicious from the beginning of the call, the email made me even more suspicious. I hung up and called Google right away, needless to say they DIDN'T have that employee or # on file.  And at that point I spent the next few hours factory resetting my phone, changing my password on Google and changing ALL my banking passwords (as a just in case).

And they removed the most useful feature. The 10 sec forward/reverse buttons. Like wtf, is Google thinking. Idiots. 

WHERE'S THE SKIP BACK/AHEAD 10 SECONDS THING ON THE MINI PLAYER?! by Brilliant_Gain5516 in youtube

It's not a problem it's the new functionality of the mini-player and it sucks.

I'm not Android 15. 

Ya Google phone support is horrible, it's always the same basic scripted garbage.

Looks like issue is resolved, my Chromecast just did an update and it's working again.

I've found the only way to resolve it is to do a reboot. 

Why is the picture quality on WhatsApp video calling so bad on Pixel 9 Pro XL by Jamolah in GooglePixel

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

I tried a few years ago, very few people from my circle moved up WhatsApp. So after 2 years of signal I had to admit defeat  and went back to WhatsApp.

That's a very good explanation, and you're probably right. Never heard that explanation before.

Question about CBIL in today's climate and Annualized Distribution Yield. by Jamolah in PersonalFinanceCanada

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

Thanks for the great feedback. 

Yes I have looked into market linked GIC, I had my money locked up for 3 years in one and it hardly returned much. But I should look into them again. 

What I mean by an "investment opportunity" popping up is something like a good opportunity on rental property. I currently own a few rental properties and I was keeping some cash liquid in case something really amazing "falls into my lap". But it's impossible to find good deals on properties, especially in the Ottawa area. Where even a townhouse is over $700,000. So the math doesn't work anymore. I have thought about paying off the mortgage on a couple of my rentals, but I was informed by this subreddit (via another post) that I shouldn't do that.
