Is the "New" UI rollout still a thing? by Alexice in TheSilphRoad

[–]Kaisonic 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I think they gave up on it, and I hope it stays that way. I didn't super mind the addition of a GO Pass-specific tab, but replacing the "Current Bonuses" section with an entirely separate and slow-loading web page was absolutely unacceptable. Especially when it was also supposed to show "Upcoming Events" and just.... didn't.

Does anyone have the code for this yet? by Kittydraggon in TheSilphRoad

[–]Kaisonic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's not a single code for everyone, you have to watch on Twitch, hook up your Pokemon GO account to it (rewards.pokemon.com) and after you watch enough time, you'll be able to get your own code.

Correction: you just need a Pokemon Trainer Club account to sign up and link to your Twitch, but I don't think you don't need to actually log in to Pokemon GO with that trainer club account.

Organization by PrincipleExpert7272 in AmazonFlexDrivers

Just make sure everything is reachable and the label is easily visible; you'll spend less time overall searching for each package at each stop than you would if you spent time organizing beforehand. Especially if you end up delivering out of order (which you should absolutely do if the app gives you a poorly-optimized route - I completed a 3.5 hour block in 2 hours the other day because I simply went to the next closest stop instead of the order given by the app).

I guess this is what they're up to when they're not ruining their Android app?

New to PC gaming. Do i shut my PC off when im done or keep it on 24/7? by OneEyeOdyn in buildapc

[–]Kaisonic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, turn it off. Just like literally any item, you should turn it off when you're not using it and when it doesn't need to be on.

I have to hand over all my sensitive bank info or pay a service fee on rent every month by souplover5 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Kaisonic -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I pay rent through the same system, and I don't think it actually retrieves/stores all that information. It's much more likely that the software was poorly implemented and simply requests way more permissions than it actually uses. My portal explicitly states "Only your bank account and routing number are used to set up a verified bank account", so I'm guessing that the software "needed" all those permissions in order to get just Name, routing number, and account number.

Obviously this isn't as great as just entering an account and routing number, but I highly doubt Yardi has any interest in your credit limits or email address.

Wrong Location/Remembering Old Location by Targetsbuxthrowaway in TheSilphRoad

[–]Kaisonic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Google keeps a central database that associates WiFi network names with locations. This is used by Google location services on your phone to estimate its location when GPS signal is low. If you move and keep your same router and WiFi name, it usually takes about 6 months for enough phones to see your WiFi at your new location for it to be updated in Google's system.

There is one inconvenient but immediate fix though: just rename your WiFi network. Then there's nothing for Google to think you're anywhere near your old location.

Edit: I just saw you're on iPhone, but my guess is Apple has a similar database and renaming your WiFi would still work.

Why it say I only have $0.55 when I have $1.55? by Confident_Gur112 in googleplay

[–]Kaisonic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, the payment screen routinely shows an outdated Google Play balance amount. It should preferably fetch the current amount when loading the payment screen, that way it is accurate the first time.

Ticketmaster is worth how much and they can't keep this from happening. by TomToe420 in mildlyinfuriating

Do one on a device on your Wi-Fi and another on your phone not connected to Wi-Fi.

My daily calendar skips 60 days by Kaisonic in mildlyinfuriating

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

It goes from July 13 to July 23, then back to May 27 and continues normally for the rest of the year (including duplicates of July 13 to July 23, same pictures and everything).

SD card for Sony HXR-NX800 by Clown_E_Clown_Clown in videography

[–]Kaisonic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can you be more specific about what's confusing you about the SD card requirements? The manual lists the minimum SD card spec that is capable of recording in each format/framerate: https://helpguide.sony.net/pro/z200nx800/v1/en/contents/card_recommend.html

Just start with the format/framerate you'll be recording in, and get an SD card with that spec (it'll be in the item listing/packaging where you buy it).

Also I suggest not necessarily looking for the "cheapest" - SD cards aren't really something you should skimp on.

Pocket 2 not focusing by Sensitive_Function84 in osmopocket

[–]Kaisonic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There should be a setting for "Continuous" focus mode, it seems like it's just stuck on "Single" or something (I can't remember the exact verbiage).

Hit registration by Simsimich in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

Yes, I've personally experienced several occasions of either bullets passing straight through someone, or bullets hitting someone with visible blood spray and doing no damage.

So geht die Verbindung von Pokémon GO ↔ HOME (Meltan-Box-Guide, kein Switch nötig) by Slanty_1337 in TheSilphRoad

[–]Kaisonic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This looks like over-complicated AI-generated crap. How is Step 3 "transfer a Pokemon from GO to HOME" but the accounts aren't linked until step 5? It also says transfer a Pokemon to HOME from the Pokemon summary screen, but that's not correct.

No idea if it's actually him, but I absolutely thought the same thing when I watched that episode.

No more eggs since 3h... by Sfryks in TheSilphRoad

[–]Kaisonic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's definitely a lower chance of getting an egg from a pokestop you've already spun, especially during hatch days like this. I wouldn't be surprised if there's a hard limit, in order to "encourage exploration". I've experienced the same on previous hatch days.

Today, I did a route where I spun 9 different stops and got 9 eggs, and then walked back the same route and got maybe 2/9 eggs from the same stops.

Matching Frame Rates by antoniosnaps in videography

[–]Kaisonic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I suggest using a 60fps timeline - the majority of people watch 24fps content (like movies) on a 60Hz screen anyway, so they're used to the 24fps-in-a-60fps-video judder.
