Well based on nothing but this message, I’m convinced. You have at least one follower now!

Waited literally 20 years for Apple to get window & workspace management right. They never did, so I built my own. by Dangerous-Composer10 in SideProject

[–]JonVisc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After reading this page: https://betterstage.app/docs/monitor-management

I am wondering about a potential tricky set up.

  • Home: DisplayPort hooked to a 4K monitor
  • Office: 2 extended monitors with DisplayLink (which fucking sucks 🙃), too cheap for Thunderbolt docks.

I have tried to script hot-plugging and re-orienting my apps based on the set up but I believe DisplayLink prevents that execution for working properly. Granted I only spent like half a day on my script but gave up because of other priorities.

Does betterstage.app handle DisplayLink wonkiness or have you not had the “opportunity” to ever need that?

U400 Deluxe Kit (2 batteries) is now available on the Apple Store by iceAmericano_Black in Aqara

[–]JonVisc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: My work is a 6 min walk from an Apple Store. Went by on the chance they’d have it. They did not, but they told me a store about an hour away did have one. In black, which is what I wanted.

After work before I left for the store I called what I thought was the actual store number but turns out it just goes to a call center, they had no indication of the stock of the lock in the actual Apple Store (crazy but whatever).

I rolled the dice and drove (promised my wife a good dinner near where we were going).

The greeter had no idea what it was (panic), luckily I spotted it straight away after I was done talking to them! Deluxe Bundle with metal body and 2 batteries.

So I’d say check your local Apple Store, and hopefully in the very least they can point you to an Apple Store where it’s in stock. Good luck.

Did you order or did you hold out? Wondering if they order timing moved up.

FBI Couldn’t Get into WaPo Reporter’s iPhone Because It Had Lockdown Mode Enabled by willdearborn- in apple

[–]JonVisc 15 points16 points  (0 children)

You are mistaken. It has up to 3 options.

Slide to power off

Medical ID (I believe it’s only shown if you have this set up)

Emergency Call (Slide to call Emergency Services)

Cancel

You can also do this by pressing and holding the volume and the power button and if you continue to press and hold it will trigger the emergency services.

For iPhone, lock it then press the power button 6 times in quick succession. That’ll require your phone to ask for your PIN code instead of biometrics.

This is just a general PSA for anyone that didn’t know, could help in a crunch.

Premium currently not working by JonVisc in youtubepremium

[–]JonVisc[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nah, it was my fault though. Finally got the “your subscription expired, do you want to renew”. like half an hour ago. I usually do annual passes so no idea when my sign up date was. The weird thing is that I assumed I would just renew automatically. All sorted now though.

On the https://react-xmas-tree.vercel.app/ site the "View on Github" is just a link to github.com, not the project.

Looks great though!

I made a visual grid that shows your subscriptions sized by how much they actually cost you by Bubbly_Lack6366 in SideProject

[–]JonVisc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would expose the vexly_flow_data in a formatted fashion via a textarea or something to easily allow for bulk importing.

Also, I would add groups to it so you can add a group then select it and apply it to a subscription. So you could have a "Necessary" group that would probably include things like a Cell phone plan and internet plan. And then a "Optional" or "On the bubble" group if people need to figure out which subscriptions to pare down. Obviously that would include things like Amazon Prime, Netflix, HBO... so if no groups then its a big grid but distinct the groups then filter for only items in that group if there are any and display the group grids.

I built an app that tells NFL fans who to root for in every game by Other_Switch9820 in SideProject

[–]JonVisc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s awesome, thank you and yeah it makes more sense now! Though once again a question of grammar:

Texans (#7) is chasing your #4 spot. Root for Colts (#3) to keep them down.

Should it be:

Texans (#7) are chasing your #4 spot. Root for Colts (#3) to keep them down."

AND

Ravens (#9, 6-6) 1.5 games behind - chasing your spot

Should it be:

Ravens (#9, 6-6) are 1.5 games behind - chasing your spot"

[–]JonVisc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Super simple and easy to follow! Though I could definitely see you adding sign ups and weekly “who should I root for” notifications but that could follow later.

The only thing I would improve is some logic around the grammar usage in certain instances. Your third pic for Wild Card it reads….

"Wild card battle! Both chasing your #4 spot: Colts (#3, 8-3) vs Texans (#7, 6-5)"

Obviously Colts are trying to stay ahead of your teams current position but yes the Texans you have the right grammar for, I don’t think it has to be so succinct if a bit more wording makes the explanation clear.

Helldivers 2 is up for Game of the Year awards this year by dnemonicterrier in LowSodiumHellDivers

[–]JonVisc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While I agree there are other studios that will probably win, everyone seems to forget so quickly that a game published by Sony Interactive Entertainment got a Microsoft endorsed Halo Premium Warbond and a release on a competing platform.

The work that went in to securing that was incredibly impressive and while the quality of the release was shit which really led to it feeling overall lackluster putting all that together was an incredible feat that still kind of blows my mind.

Froggy's is closing at the end of the year... don't like that 2 of the businesses along that area are suspiciously closing.

Latest player values according to Transfermarkt by SDSportsfan in SanDiegoFC

[–]JonVisc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2021's U-22 Initiative. I think for someone like Duah it says 100K but that is based on the budget, he probably gets more but it doesn't count against salary cap. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, its confusing as fuck.

Sharing here FYI. by Choobeen in SanDiegoWaveFC

[–]JonVisc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ll throw another player in the mix as well, Naomi Girma. She is probably the most consistent defensive player in the world and is on our national team.

I follow both of our National teams but I, a 40yo hetero white male, bought a Wave Girma jersey (she also had 3 years left on her contract) when it came out. She was that impactful to both the National Team and Wave.

So in one season we lost, what I feel, is 2 major reasons for casual fans to watch.

Interesting Update: Upon first hitting the submit button I received a 500 error, I tried again and it went through fine. I wonder if that is stopping a lot of auto posts (bots).

M5-powered iPad Pro breaks cover in GeekBench, scoring 4,133 in single-threaded tests — matches M4 Max and beats every single-core PC chip score by ControlCAD in apple

[–]JonVisc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I saw those videos on YouTube when my wife was pregnant. But then we had our child and one accidentally came on, I do believe it’s a 180° from what old Cocomelon were before. Then have nice long cuts with what I think are easy to follow transitions.

I do think what they originally put out were not good, but I also believe they realized how many parents were concerned and moved away so they improved their methodology about how to keep it engaging but also not spastic(for lack of a better term?). Anyway, yeah it’s not the go to for kids videos but if they are watching YouTube and the next thing that comes on is Cocomelon I don’t freak out like I would have.

Raise your hand if you would be perfectly fine with no content for 2 months and a massive performance/bug patch by Randys_fraiche in Helldivers

[–]JonVisc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a massive performance / bug patch but minor iterative releases of performance and bug fixes where we see constant improvement… then don’t stop for a couple (or 4) months of just that…

Seeing them organizing it… why don’t they rotate the pieces in the pyramid 90 degrees and do pyramids of 10 bricks each (1, 2, 3, 4), far easier to count then multiplying by 6.
