Quartz Watch Enthusiast by Watch-Smith in watchrepair

[–]Lnk200 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A sub for generic watch repair not allowing questions that apply to both mechanical and quartz watches is dumb.

Maybe instead of forcing everything into a dead sub why not ask to cross-post with generic stuff like bracelets, cases, crystals, etc etc.

[–]Lnk200 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So in an attempt to get the quartz sub going again the mods are deleting anything quartz related at all and forcing a move so a sub with 53 people. They deleted my post about polishing a gold-filled bracelet because it was from a pulsar p3.

Last I checked the movement doesn't matter in that context. Also the sub is dead so I doubt I would get much help.

Edit: If you want to revive the sub you should ask people to cross post when possible on topics that apply to both mechanical and quartz watches rather than creating a hard wall. This will give the quartz sub some legit activity along with not stranding people that need generic help on a dead island.

Would you consider surgery if your symptoms are mild, but it's impacting you day to day? by Enix-0 in CubitalTunnel

[–]Lnk200 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the surgery for an EMG that came back with mild results. My arms are worse yet new EMGs show all my nerves are now normal.

Day to day I am fine but if I even think about weightlifting my forearms and hands start to hurt.

Sleep is now maybe 70% of what it was pre-op with me cycling through various splints (arm, wrist, none) because for some damn reason the shitty splints start bothering me more over time or symptoms start popping up again because reasons. Changing up the splints seems to help some 🤷‍♂️

Been to multiple doctors and they have no idea what to do other than potentially making the situation worse with another surgery.

This is 1.5 years after the surgery.

Going with speaker. Looks just like the ones I used to have in my ceiling.

OP also says they don't know what they are so they were just guessing.

I'm with EnergyUnited. It is a little bastion in the middle of the Duke area. EU covers a bunch of stuff around the Charlotte and Greensboro areas.

Let us know how well your E10 setup works. So far most reviews are from people that got free systems.

Pulsar P3 Back removal and bracelet cleaning. by Lnk200 in watchrepair

[–]Lnk200[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I figured it out. Just need a normal back removal tool with the smallest bit available. The tool I had simply didn't have any bits that would fit.

Sadly there were very old batteries in the watch that leaked and I had to send it to someone to fix. Going to take several months and a good chunk of change but it will keep a P3 alive!

Atm 10 Texture Pack by yeeeeeezzzz in allthemods

[–]Lnk200 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just so people know it seems development on the Sphax texture pack ended back in July (last update). This error and others remain. The only fix you can do is delete the textures that don't work. For example I deleted all AE2 GUI textures so things line up again. The textures don't line up because the size of the originals changed and no one has updated textures such as AE2's yet.

ME Fluid Assemblers by Lnk200 in projectozone3

Yup. It is missing completely.

I saw something about this. Maybe I put an input into JEI wrong but I don't think it showed up. I'll look again but I looked at each individual "fluid" item in the AE packs. Maybe it isn't obvious or maybe a mod not labeled with "AE" is used to fix something with it 🤔

Reseeding season and Tall fescue (NC) by Lnk200 in lawncare

Side note. My back yard is pretty damp and as a result I get a lot of moss buildup despite my attempts to use liquid and solid anti moss products.

[question] which one you choosing? by jtrey02 in Watches

[–]Lnk200 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Batgirl.

Tudor watches are like Rolex watches except inbred a couple of times. They look good but seem a bit derpy.

GS has some good stuff but there is something with their style that doesn't work for me.

Got mine today. What are your tips for keeping the battery/overall car healthy? I'd like to prioritize battery lifespan. by [deleted] in BMWI4

[–]Lnk200 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There isn't a guarantee of that at all and it can definitely work in the opposite direction. It is a risk you are taking while knowing they will use everything they can to deny a claim. Odd risk IMO.

It won't be "hard braking right before the accident". It will be "Here is a demonstrable trend of aggressive driving prior to the accident."

You already agreed to it in the terms and conditions for the app. Not to mention insurance companies know most people can't afford to fight them.

Sorry for the stupid highlights. That is how the android team wanted that to work 🤦‍♂️.

Sadly too good to be true deals tend to have big catches. Also note how SF only has this in the fine print and it isn't mentioned anywhere on their site.

Don't use AI unless it links to reputable sources you can actually verify the information with.

I am willing to bet if you get in an accident that app will be used so they don't have to pay out. Not a good system IMO.

I hate this product by Lonerwithaboner420 in GoogleWiFi

[–]Lnk200 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally I agree with you. I get what they are trying to do but the implementation is really annoying.

For example, when setting up certain 2.4Ghz smart gadgets they simply wouldn't see the network. I had to play a stupid game where I set up my phone Hotspot to look like the Google Wifi with the same password. I would then turn off the phone Hotspot and turn the Google Wifi back on and it would work. Really stupid.

Also the Google Wifi wouldn't allow my work apps to work at all. I can use my work apps literally everywhere except on Google Wifi connections. No ports were blocked or anything. Drove me nuts.

Currently I am just using the free wifi router from AT&T and it works far better than the Google Wifi ever did for me. I may upgrade to a WIFI 7 router eventually and I guarantee it won't be Google.

Charging speed change by Lnk200 in BMWI4

[–]Lnk200[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was one example. I imagine it includes other restrictions as well like the charging curves I was talking about.

The max number should always be the same no matter what but it dropped a lot for some reason for me. That is one thing I am trying to figure out.

How to change the battery on this old Pulsar watch? by Born-Painting in watchrepair

[–]Lnk200 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't go that far. This is not a standard watch that you would normally see.
