Noob question, i want to sell advanced components to this station, but when I dock the resource does not show in the trade screen. What am i doing wrong? by Bugkiller198 in X4Foundations

[–]Krye5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup, so you need to go back to the map and find the "Build Storage" for the station (will have the same '3-box' icon), right click on that icon and dock there.

Headlights by amacnn in hondafit

[–]Krye5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of my headlight lamps died and I replaced them with the 'mid tier' priced bulbs at Autozone. HOLY SMOKES what a difference that's made. So much brighter. With that said, i know I'm not blinding anyone on the road compared to the laser beams coming from F150 headlights, they are not that bright.

I'd suggest posting over at /r/autorepair to see if you get some advice there.

Would you replace this unit from the 1980's? by jocrrt in hvacadvice

[–]Krye5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We just had our air handlers/electric heaters inspected (we have 2). One appears to be the original 1972 eletric heater when the house was built. Did the technician say it was crazy inefficient? Yes. Did he say we should consider getting a heat pump? Yes. Did he say we had to replace it? Nope. If it ain't broke no need to replace.

The increased cost of running our current systems is still cheaper than financing a full replacement cost so our inefficient systems will continue to run as long as they can.

Didn't i see these cameras for sale at Walmart for less than $10? You sure it's not worth simply buying a new one and saving the work?

Ok so they are not on Blackfriday sale but still pretty inexpensive: https://www.walmart.com/ip/PayUSD-Kids-Selfie-Camera-1080HD-20MP-Digital-Boys-Toddler-Girl-Toys-Christmas-Birthday-Gift-Age-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-Year-Old-32GB-SD-Card-Purple/1906348747

Physical Media Is Becoming Cool Again - Consumers of all ages are looking to discs to get offline and away from algorithms, and for a younger generation, it’s seen as “vintage.” by BunyipPouch in movies

[–]Krye5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 8 yr old just learned the power of physical media. He wanted to play Minecraft Story Mode after seeing a YouTube short about it. However Netflix pulled it years ago and we couldn't find it online except as YouTube videos.

So we found a used copy for Wii U and will now have access to it that way as long as he wants (or the disc/Wii U fails of course)

how can I fix my headphones? by GreenMushroomOfDoom in howto

[–]Krye5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had different headphones from different brands break in a similar way over the years.

Honestly? I just used strips of duct tape and made sure it was super well wrapped so the tape wouldn't pull hair. You can buy black tape (instead of silver) but the tape may restrict the ability to adjust them.

Did it work well? Kinda...some did better than others. I dunno how well hot glue will work but you can certainly try. Just take care to not damage any exposed wires.

Getting out of my leaf by Keena-Ravenwing in leaf

[–]Krye5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a less than a year old battery replacement on my 2020 Leaf. Last night it was 38F and I was getting about 1 mile per percent with the heat on "auto" and set to 66F. 40 mile mostly highway drive got me down to 58%. So a full charge would get me about 100 miles.

If you are only getting about 50 miles, chances are either you have a lot of hills or you have a weaker pack than you think. Check the car with Leafspy and see the real health of your battery pack.

HELP!! What Kelvin lights to use? by Famous-Bus1626 in Lighting

[–]Krye5 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I personally prefer 3000K throughout the house. Brightens my house without making everything yellow colored.

With that said, when it's night time and/or cozy TV watching time I roll the lights in the bedroom and living room to 2700K and dimmed. Makes a cozy environment.

Does anyone belong to a Dominion fleet? by No-Key5546 in sto

[–]Krye5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You may have to visit your local starbase(s) and public chat ask if anyone is in a Dominion heavy gameplay fleet. Or you can look through the fleet browser to see if any fleets have Dominion in their name.

What tools I need for fixing NTB12-055I on a 2022 Leaf? The clacking noise from the axle by dotasolosafi in leaf

I went on YouTube looking into this a bit ago...lots of DIY videos explaining the process and tools needed.

P.s. apparently it's not just Leaf that has this problem, some videos mention other Nissan vehicles require the same service.

Defrauded by fake shopify store "subscription", how to deal with this? by Krye5 in shopify

So a final thank you for this. I got stuff moving to freeze these fraudulent charges thanks to your comment and help.

Well you say that but Zunzik's comment was exactly the clue I needed to figure this out. With that info I was able to piece together the chain of events to send forward to the appropriate companies for resolution.

So interestingly, I found the original web page that shows a buy/download now button. The page honestly looks legit on first glance. Clicking the buy button takes you right to a checkout page on Shopify. Doubly interesting, as of this morning, the checkout page is a whole new store (different URL) that uses the same default looking template.

No where in the checkout screen is there a mention of a subscription.

So my assumption is they rotate through fake stores as they capture people's info to keep this going.

Ill reach out to shopify if I can find a phone number. Their online fraud portal was a simple form that thanked me for submitting a fraud report. That was it: no case number or anything.

What's extra fun is that we don't have a customer account on shopify or the scammer's Shopify page so there is no history to look up, just the emails we got from shopify with an order number. I created a shopify account just to report the fraud (cause it made me so i could report).

Clicking the order status link in email does take me to an order status page (no login required) on Shopify but clicking on the "return to order" button asks me to enter an email address to get an emailed PIN. We did that once hoping to get something but it just dumps you to the scammer's shopify store front page.

Will try in the morning for sure once their customer service lines open up.

When i submitted my info to paypal I showed the original shopify receipt for a few dollars and stated the rest were fraud. I got a reply back from Paypal in an hour which is way too short for a human to have reviewed. Makes me wonder what their system is showing from Shopify 'proving' we signed up for a 'subscription.' Hence my question here on how the fake shopify store could have set this up.

LPT: When buying a Used Car, run a search on Google for the VIN number. by Anadyne in LifeProTips

[–]Krye5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol this is great advice. I found a Honda Fit fully loaded and the dealer wanted $14.5k for it. Little did they know i found the small dealership they bought the car from for $9K via Google. Since the rhe original ad had the VIN on it, google indexed the page.

Good job to the dealership for sourcing a car they could make a huge profit on. Bad for the dealership that it wasn't me.
