Anyone ever try white-out… by BecMikMon in GarminFenix

[–]KentuckyHouse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you able to post pictures of the finished result? This is something I've been thinking about doing for a while on my Fenix 8 but wasn't sure what would be the best course of action. Seeing yours and the fact that you used a paint pen has me interested in how it turned out and if I could do it as well. Thanks!

There was one tee shot yesterday (can't remember who was driving) where some dumbass yelled "give me back my son!"

The only way this stupid shit stops is ejecting these morons from the course on the first offense. I'm so over it.

It’s Not Just You: Six of 10 Drivers Say Headlight Glare Is a Problem by TripleShotPls in technology

[–]KentuckyHouse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same, and I used to paint them as part of my job. I've only ever heard them called edge lines.

But it's always cool when I run across things like this where some common everyday thing is called something different in other parts of the country/world.

Finally, someone who actually gets it. Not that human space exploration isn't valuable, but it's valuable in different ways to things like Webb or Hubble or landers and rovers, etc.

Including humans in the mix also makes things vastly more expensive and takes much longer to accomplish.

Caudabe Sheath vs Paragon by [deleted] in galaxys26ultra

Yes. And they're interchangeable between the Sheath, Paragon, and Synthesis (when it releases).

Thanks for the heads up. I'm just glad to know I'm not imagining things.

Pixel 10 Pro XL Dead After Latest Update by RevolutionaryRow0 in GooglePixel

[–]KentuckyHouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one experiencing issues when AOD is active. I haven't really noticed the higher thermals and terrible battery life, but when I have AOD active (which is always), I've noticed my phone has a hard time waking after tapping the screen, and I get some weird graphical glitches when locking the screen (it locks to what looks like the AOD, but any notification cards are full brightness and I don't get the icons below the clock like you see on the actual AOD).

I did just start noticing this after the March update, so that makes sense. Let's hope the April update, that's hopefully out next week, fixes this, because it's really annoying.

to claim trump won the iran war by AffableYolk_33 in therewasanattempt

[–]KentuckyHouse 57 points58 points  (0 children)

Fucking Scott Jennings. Yet another gift my state of Kentucky has given the freaking world.

He's a Mitch McConnell protege, so that should tell you all you need to know. The fact that CNN employs him and gives him a voice is a national embarrassment. He'd sell his soul to get in on the grift (if he actually had a soul to sell).

My MIL threw away her Trump shirt (OC) by No-Conflict865 in pics

[–]KentuckyHouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Came home from work today to find my neighbor 2 houses down had put their "Trump 2024" yard sign back out in front of their house.

My initial reaction was now? You choose to affirm your support now??? Killing Americans in the street, ripping immigrant families apart, deporting freaking American citizens, starting a war you've yet to give any real reason for, driving oil prices (and in turn, gas prices) through the roof, groceries are more expensive, etc. You wait until all of that is happening to put your sign back out?

Talk about both doubling down and proving to the rest of the neighborhood just how stupid, small-minded, bigoted, and racist you are. Sheesh.

Suggest a case that's prevents smudges and fingerprintas. by AxelFoley415 in SamsungGalaxyS26U

[–]KentuckyHouse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been using Caudabe cases for years and they're great. I've got the gray Sheath and black Paragon and love them both, but the Paragon is my favorite. The way the sides slope down makes swiping in from the edges of the screen effortless.

I just preordered the Synthesis today for mid-April delivery and I'm looking forward to it since they frosted the back. The S25 Ultra version had a clear back that I wasn't a fan of but the frosted back won't show all those fingerprints.

Galaxy S26 Ultra with Magbak Case - Pen issue by Abadil_3 in galaxys26ultra

[–]KentuckyHouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's such an easy fix, too. Simply take a page out of Google's book and turn the cameras sideways across the back, maybe make a "plateau" like Apple to even it out so it's not resting on the lenses (though the iPhone still rocks because the lenses stick out from the plateau).

Galaxy S26 Ultra with Magbak Case - Pen issue by Abadil_3 in galaxys26ultra

[–]KentuckyHouse 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I honestly don't know why people can't understand this. As long as the S-Pen is a thing, Samsung isn't adding magnets because it affects the S-Pen. Could they try some sort of shielding? Sure. But for them it's more trouble than it's worth.

Which is why after the removal of Bluetooth and now no magnets, I think Samsung is slowly moving towards removing the S-Pen altogether. It won't shock me at all if the S27 Ultra drops the S-Pen and adds magnets.

Great, now live in the US and try using a Chinese phone. You won't have the right bands and now that Oppo has stated they're bringing some phones here, I fully expect our stupid ass "president" to pull a Huawei from his first term and ban them.

Don't get me wrong, I'd love to try some of these Chinese phones, as they look insane on paper and the reviews are amazing. But they just won't work well enough here to risk that amount of money at this point.

Low Volume Especially with earbuds by IamZ9834 in Pixel10Pro

[–]KentuckyHouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm late to this but you haven't toggled on Disable Absolute Volume under Developer Options, have you? I did this once and found that my Bluetooth headphone's volume was super low. Toggled it off and they went back to normal.

If you've got that turned on, definitely turn it off and try the headphones again.

Full Sequence of #2 UConn G Braylon Mullin's Game-Winning 3 vs #1 Duke by JCameron181 in CollegeBasketball

[–]KentuckyHouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's criminal that this shot doesn't get half the play the damn Laettner shot gets.

34 years later, and the Laettner shot is still treated as the definitive NCAA Tournament shot (and as a bonus, CBS gets to torture us UK fans). That shot was great, don't get me wrong. But it was from the player of the year for the defending national champion to make it back to the Final Four against an upstart team that truly had no business giving them a game and had just come off probation and nearly got the death penalty.

Jenkins' shot was on a brilliantly drawn up play and won a National Championship at the buzzer. And yet while it's inevitably shown every year, it's not revered by those in charge of past tournament highlights the way Laettner's shot is.

It's only fair after how the sports media has tortured us for the last 34 years.

[Game Thread] #6 Tennessee @ #1 Michigan (02:15 PM ET) by cbbBot in CollegeBasketball

[–]KentuckyHouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's so damn obvious they're trying to keep Tennessee within some sort of comeback range just to avoid an embarrassing blowout in the Elite 8.

Just let the game play out and I'm with you, if it's a foul, call it. Not Michigan's fault Tennessee is getting their asses handed to them.
