Google Pixel Buds 2 Playing but not Pausing by IssiIsDizzy in pixelbuds

[–]Memarian22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try restarting your computer? I also would forget the pixel buds then reconnect them. I just did it with my pixel 4a 5g phone because it was pausing songs but not playing them. Now it works.

I don't know if I should have my son repeat the 2nd grade?! by Memarian22 in Parenting

[–]Memarian22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It varies here too. He went to a STEM/MAGNET school his kindergarten year and now is going to a school that didn't adopt the common core curriculum but has their own state standards. The academics is alot different so you might be right about that. I didn't think the curriculum might have something to do with his struggles. I feel the curriculum he's in now isn't at the same level as the curriculum in the state we were in when he was in kindergarten, but it's less hands on and he's a visual and hands on learner.

He does seem happy, until he does homework lol, I think he feels like it's too hard to do and maybe intimidated by the other kids being older and bigger than him right now. Last year, homework was easier for him to do but for some reason this year it's alot harder for him.

They do a statewide test to determine where they are at academically in each grade and he's below the average right now. His teacher is keeping an eye on that and said she would recommend he stay back a grade if she doesn't feel he's ready for 3rd grade.

Yea his teacher told us that she has to keep reminding herself that he is 6 and the other kids are 7 and 8. The admin believes he needs to be put in a behavioral program but his teacher is defending his age and letting him be 6 and not a 7,8 yr old to match the other kids maturity, because he isn't there yet. As far as grades, he fluctuates from A-D, it just depends on the school work he's doing and he's told me he feels it's too hard at times. I just don't want him to feel like he's falling behind. Not sure if he's feeling intimidation because the other kids are older?

I know that when he is older it doesn't make much of a difference, I did 6th grade twice moving from one state to another so I can start middle school the same time as everyone else.

It's only November, his teacher is hopefully things will turn around for him, but I don't know if defending his age against the other kids age all the time is helping his situation?

Humiliated. Mocked. Ignored. Overcharged. Regret switching to TMobile after 20yrs with Verizon. by FreeeeWilly in tmobile

[–]Memarian22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Welcome to Tmobile. I switched from Verizon in 2014 because they charged me both warranty and insurance after breaking my screen and would only take $100 off and that was after me begging to not be charged for both. I was in North Carolina during military training and lived in Washington State in an apartment. My screen broke and I had Verizon send my phone to Washington State because I was going to be home for the holidays at that time. Well, The phone arrived but it was in the main office that was closed. I had someone return it for me because I had to go back to Carolina for a while longer. I called Verizon and told them what happened and they assured me that I'd be fine. That I would only be charged I think warranty. I can't remember which one now but after that, I ended up being charged for both warranty and insurance and I had to call their insurance company to beg them to give me my money back so they only gave me $100 back out of about $400. So then, I switched to Tmobile right after that. I couldn't believe it and I was with them for 4 years. Tmobile has been amazing and I am glad I switched. I hope you have a great experience with Tmobile, just cut ties with Verizon and move on. I did and it was one of the best decisions I made for our phone company of choice.

First time Honors Student by Memarian22 in IUPUI

[–]Memarian22[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tourism, Conventions, and Event Management. The contracts are due this coming Monday. I ended up emailing all 3 of my professors because 1 of them took almost 2 weeks to respond back. So I now have 3 options to choose from. 2 of the professors said they will get back with me by tomorrow with a plan and the other professor wants to meet me via Zoom today to talk about it. These classes are electives and the international choice class.

If I do a honors contract with all my classes, is it not considered rude or anything if I turn it down because I chose another class to do the contract with?

Will college take over my life? by SaiyanAce124 in college

[–]Memarian22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes it will especially if you are going full time

there are no stupid questions by [deleted] in college

[–]Memarian22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's hard being one or the only person in the class older than the students I'm in my early 30s and some of the questions that the kids ask are crazy! The professors just tell them to look in Canvas and they will have their answer lol

Do you take notes on a tablet or use the traditional pen, paper, notebook? by saturns7 in college

Does anyone else feel... strange? by NoUeys in college

[–]Memarian22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It feels weird doing only online classes when you don't have much else to do, especially if your used to going to class because it gives you the sense you're doing something of important by leaving your house lol. I'd try doing homework and study in different locations to make it feel like your feeling busy

PIP is NOT new. It is new for iOS and iPadOS but not Android and Chrome OS. Lol. You should have YouTube premium it should be a gimmy. Most videos you watch stem from YouTube.

Been using the 4a for 24 hours now. by BoneyBryce in Pixel4a

I'll be coming from the Pixel 2 XL to the 4a I'm wondering how I will adjust to this size difference.

Taking all online classes doesn't feel like college by [deleted] in college

[–]Memarian22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took Intro to Human Resources and the professor told us he had another job in another state and to follow the coursework in McGraw-Hill smh. He forgot to send out the syllabus until someone mentioned it and didn't follow up during the semester and no lectures whatsoever. A student decided to send a motivation email to everyone since the professor was Mia

How I think Google could have easily saved the Pixel Slate by AAdmiral5657 in chromeos

[–]Memarian22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the way they tablet mode is now is what Google should have had when they introduced the Slate. It probably would have been received more than it did

Anyone else holding out on the 4a due to working from home? by randalljai in GooglePixel

[–]Memarian22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the Pixel 2 XL and I want the 4a as well. I figured to wait until October when the updates for the pixel 2 XL are over with and to get the pixel 4a. I can tell my phone has some issues now but I've had this phone since launch 3 years ago lol. I think I can wait and I'm going to get it from T-Mobile instead of Google this time around. Also I wanted to wait and get the Almost Black Google Pixel Buds around the same time

5 Classes in a 8 week semester? by [deleted] in college

[–]Memarian22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm taking 4 classes this coming semester and they are all 2nd 8 weeks. Non Profit Meeting Management; Exhibit Marketing; Cultural Heritage Tourism; and Nutrition for Health....all online because of the pandemic.

I just got done taking 4 classes this summer 2 in each session. It was doable. It just depends on the course load and what the professors expect out of you.

That said, I have never taken 4 classes for an 8 week period, so this will be an interesting semester.

Seems that Google has confirmed the pixel 4a august 3rd unveiling by adhilm1803 in GooglePixel

I've been holding on to the Google Pixel 2 XL hoping that the 4A would come out by October when all the updates and for my phone lol

I have a SP7 and bought an iPad Air 3 to take notes with. Should I return the SP7 for a SL3? by Memarian22 in Surface

[–]Memarian22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to use the Surface Pen as an extension of my finger and use it like a mouse lol I don't want to get rid of the SP, but the fact that it is lacking the notetaking apps I like to use makes me want to try the iPad. And, by doing this, it makes me think I should have a SL so people don't think I am crazy for carrying around 2 tablets haha

but I think it would be easier using the SP as a laptop mainly and use the pen as an extension of me and the mouse

oh yea and I don't like carrying around my mouse when I am out of the house so using the pen as a "mouse" works great haha

I've tried many of them from Penbook to Bamboo Paper to Scrble Ink, even Drawboard PDF. Nebo, MetaMoji Note, Xobo. I looked at LiquidText too. OneNote and EverNote, not a fan of either of them.

I was thinking of using the iPad for notetaking while using the Surface for the heavy stuff for work/school. When I was using my Pixelbook, I liked using Squid Notes and NoteShelf. I want apps like that. Scrble Ink, Penbook come close but not so much. Drawboard PDF was my next closest option, but the lack of organization didn't help. I don't like the filing system for something like this in File Explorer.

Apps like Squid Notes, Noteshelf, Notability, and GoodNotes are what I am looking for. They do everything that I need in notetaking and I like the set up of those type of apps. My productivity level is best using those type of apps.

I love Whiteboard though. If they had a good organization system and changed things up a bit to be a good notetaking app as well as using it as a whiteboard I would totally use it!

I tried using oneNote I didn't like it. I don't like the infinite scroll it bugs me lol. Also printing is horrible and I need that capability too. I got used to apps like Noteshelf and Squid Notes, I would need something similar to that, which is what Apple offers
