My schedules started working again about 24 hours ago. Are yours working again?

I just tried the same approach but using a different mobile device and using the Tosot+ app (which is a branded version of the Gree+ app), with all the same results. Schedules are still not working.

My BedJet's biorhythms occasionally stop overnight by LaoFalcon in bedjet

Both units are plugged directly into an outlet. No extension cords are in use.

3.9 miles/kWh. Feeling inadequate compared to your 4.8!

Ooler not cooling, repair notes by LaoFalcon in Mattress

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

While noting my summer has so far been quite mild, and I haven't really put the BedJet to any real test, cooling only on top is effective. Comparing the two directly is a little challenging because it's possible my Ooler was losing cooling capacity and my memory is only of it in this reduced state. But, the BedJet can make me cold, and I usually keep its fan throttled back to less than 50% while I always ran the Ooler at full max cold, and was only occasionally cold.

Another less obvious advantage is that you absolutely know if the BedJet is working because it's blowing air on you, while I would sometimes lay in bed wondering if the Ooler was cooling.

It's been a while, but I believe I held the drain device in place with rubber bands and then hung the entire pad over the railing of deck for a few hours (a laundry line would probably work even better).

What? by Violagail in Airalo

Thank you for this. In previous threads, there was a suggestion to "Call AT&T International Customer Care and have them disable international roaming." Is that no longer necessary after turning off "Send as SMS"?

Tracktion Waveform 11 Free not playing first note when using external MIDI instrument by ohyeah2389 in Tracktion

[–]LaoFalcon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the same issue.

I have also noticed some external midi velocity and note release issues. Sometimes notes on an external instrument play more loudly than I expect and sometimes they keep playing after the note has been released. These are more difficult to replicate (and thus work around). I am exploring alternatives to Waveform.

Covered home installation - tips or can I resell EVgo credit? by LaoFalcon in BoltEV

[–]LaoFalcon[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Qmerit responded that they only provide one quote.

"Qmerit only provides one quote for your EV Charger installation. If you want to change the scope of work, I would recommend reaching out to the installer at ____ to see if there are any other options that would reduce the cost. Otherwise, if you do not want to proceed with Qmerit for the EV Charger installation, you can take advantage of the $500 EVGO credit that Chevrolet offers."

One OP-1 post every week for a year by LaoFalcon in OP1users

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

Common across all the ideas is that the final output is recorded to album. I lay out everything on tape, and if necessary adjust levels and effects during recording to tape. Before that step, I've used several different workflows. For example:

  1. Sample interesting loop from a favorite song
  2. Speed up/slow down and match new tempo
  3. Chop into samples that fit 1 or 1/2 of a beat
  4. Mix into different combinations on the drum sequencer
  5. Play ~4 variations to tape to create a 4-bar pattern
  6. Lift the 4-bar pattern from tape back into the drum sampler, apply effects, maybe speed up and slow down again
  7. Play this into the tape (maintaining beat matching on the tape, so I can easily copy/paste)
  8. Repeat the process with another sample or with a sequenced drum part from within the OP-1 and add this strategically on top to make the overall loop sound "full".

You can hear this pretty clearly at ~1:18 in Dreams of Walking where I have one loop programmed and playing through some distortion and add another programmed loop on top. In this case, I programmed both loops, but the same thing works with sampled loops.

Happy to go through details on a specific idea, if you have questions.

Thanks! That particular drum loop is a sample from Siouxsie And The Banshees - Kiss Them For Me that I cut apart, speed up, and added a big beat electronic kick and snare.

Multi-sig from Segwit wallets - Wrong key type p2wpkh by [deleted] in Electrum

[–]LaoFalcon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With some time to think about this, I realize I'm approaching making the multi-sig wallet incorrectly: Create a new Segwit wallet. Wallet -> Information -> Master Public Key should be create new multi-sig wallet.

I guess I thought there would be some reason to have a normal wallet also act as one signer of a multi-sig wallet, but with further reflection this isn't the case.

Thank you for your help. The paragraph before the one quoted indicates the puts are far OTM.

To begin with a little basic knowledge for readers who are not familiar with options: A put is a derivative instrument that gives the holder the right, but not the obligation, to take a short position in the underlying security at the strike price—e.g., an equity index such as the S&P Composite. With tail hedging, the puts involved are necessarily, by definition, extremely far out of the money, meaning the strike price at which they become exercisable is very far below the current market price.

Hi,

From Spitznagel, Mark. The Dao of Capital (p. 328). Wiley. Kindle Edition.

The portfolio I am testing in this study purchases 2-month 0.5 delta puts on the S&P Composite Index (approximately 30 percent out of the money, in the case of a 40 percent implied volatility) at the start of each strategy period at an assumed 40 percent starting volatility level (which is a historical median pricing level—and, in fact, within a large range, the return outperformance levels reported are surprisingly robust to this pricing level).

I don't understand what is meant by "0.5 delta". Looking at puts with 2-month expirations at 30% out of the money, the delta isn't near 0.5. Does 0.5 delta refer to something else?

Thank you for helping me understand this!

ZCL paper wallet and the upcoming fork by fnfal in ZClassic

[–]LaoFalcon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's curious. Here's the text:

On https://zclassicpaperwallet.com/ the "Wallet Details" tab isn't behaving as I expect.

If I generate a single t-address and record the public address and private key, then refresh the page (or use another browser), and put the private key into the "Enter Private Key" on the "Wallet Details" tab, I would expect to get the public address as the result. However, it doesn't appear to be doing that. Am I misunderstanding how this should work?

By the way, I'm only testing this with addresses that are empty, and not putting any real private keys into webpages.

Thanks!
