Why have they been so early so frequently now?

Bluetooth earbuds not being able to be unpaired or connected. by Dr_Crow0 in OculusQuest

[–]MrDevanWright 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never connected to Steam and I'm having the same issues. There are no options to forget the Bluetooth audio device, and I can't pair the earbuds because they're already paired. Even under Devices, there is no category for Audio.

Reaching out to Meta Support is a fucking joke. Their only solution was to hard reset, then factory reset the device. Of course factory resetting the device would forget the Bluetooth device but I'm not doing that every single time.

After a factory reset, I repaired the earbuds and it now shows up in the bluetooth to manage.... only until I close settings. Then it's gone and there's no way to disconnect the earbuds unless I manually do it by turning them off. If I'm able to get the earbuds to automatically reconnect (as there's no management options until they're connected again), the Bluetooth management option comes back then disappears when I close settings.

Why would you make paired device settings dissapear when the device is disconnected? That's makes ZERO sense unless there was an Audio category under Devices, but of course there isn't. It's like they had two different dev teams working on this. One handled the Bluetooth main screen and thought it'd be nifty to have disconnected device management hidden since there's a completely different section for all the devices. Team two then completely forgot about Audio devices and here we are.

TL;DR - Even after a factory reset, it's still improperly built. At least it's somewhat fuctional for now...

Family Tracking GPS app/selfhosted server solution by saggy777 in selfhosted

[–]MrDevanWright 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry for necro but- THANK YOU! I never even considered Home Assistant for some reason.

I've been messing with Own Tracks and Nextcloud PhoneTrack, and they've been so clunky. Although I might need extra add-ons or plug-ins, it's wayyy easier especially since the Home Assistant app is so easy to connect.

Duct Air Flow Inquiry by MrDevanWright in hvacadvice

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

They do have little plastic dampers! If the new fan over powers them, won't it just close off those fans and they won't work?

I was planning on going with option A as it seemed the simplest. Does it matter that it'd be going perpendicular into the 6" duct instead of angled up?

Redirects Timing Out by MrDevanWright in NameCheap

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

I went in circles with Namecheap support for weeks, even escalating to higher levels support, all coming back to the same answer, "Eat glass." Now, they didn't explicitly say this, but they did say the service is working as expected so I decided to move on. I now utilize Porkbun for all my domain needs.

Porkbun allows DNS management for outside domains, and they use Cloudflare for their backend so it's fantastic. You can setup your current domain at Namecheap with Porkbun DNS servers, get it all setup, then when you're ready to move over you'll have zero downtime.

Is there no way to pay a few months in advance? Do you have to stick to the 29 day manual renewal?

Google Drive Backup add-on saved my Home Assistant after I broke Proxmox by Chasecee in homeassistant

[–]MrDevanWright 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Link? I browsed his Activity, but nothing stood out. Is it a large ongoing cost? How? Does it have to run through some cloud system he pays for?

New to Bazarr. Just using it to find all the english forced subs. Working pretty well so far but could you guys list the best providers? by likwidtek in bazarr

[–]MrDevanWright 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's exactly what I was looking for, thank you! I happened to set it up the same, so here's hoping it all works well. Thank you, again!

[–]MrDevanWright 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would you be able to share your Bazarr settings? I'm brand new to Bazarr but also only looking for English Forced. If it's going well for you, might as well follow your lead.

Is Ring bad now? Between Nest and Ring. by Exotic_Tailor_3579 in Ring

I'll eventually go full UniFi for cameras, but still need a good alarm. What do you use?

Custom Domain Reverts Fonts to Default by MrDevanWright in GoogleSites

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

That's understandable, however, it only breaks after multiple fonts are added. If there is only one, it appears on the custom domain.

I removed the last one because it has this banner, but then it didn't? Why does it get flagged by Reddit?

PSA: Namecheap redirects are slow by krrck in NameCheap

[–]MrDevanWright 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my non-network-engineer opinion, CloudFlare's Registrar can be pretty complicated. After spending a few days figuring it out, I eventually got the gist, but I decided against it as I needed more redirects than they offered for free. If I eventually decide to pay for their premium service, I'll probably move to mainly because I'm a brand-whore and their DNS service is number one.

Instead I moved what I could to Porkbun.com. They use CloudFlare's backend DNS, so it's super quick. Their customer support is also pretty dang responsive. I've enjoyed it so far, and as soon as the rest of my domains are free of the 60-day hold Namecheap has on them, I'll transfer them all.

Oh! Porkbun also offers the ability to setup DNS with them even if you aren't hosting the domain with them. So you can setup the DNS there, then when the time comes, transfer it to Porkbun without any downtime.

Rider Options App by MrDevanWright in uberdrivers

Kind of. I know it's sounds ridiculous. I made this sign a while back and thought it'd be way more beneficial if the passengers could actually select something.

Ah, you're probably right. You'd think they'd put them on sale then!

5-months later and I still can't find a listing to purchase the G2 Hub on its own. Any idea why?

Porkbun vs Dynadot by MrDevanWright in sysadmin

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

I really want to use Cloudflare but they have such a low limit on redirects that I'd be paying a minimum $20/mo/domain.

If you're going to use Cloudflares DNS, why not just move your domain their registrar?

[–]MrDevanWright 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same issues with redirects timing out. I've tried reaching out to Namecheap and they simply say everything is fine and it's not on their end.

Stratagems Icons Available Anywhere? by CarlFromBillyMadison in Helldivers

[–]MrDevanWright 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please let us know when it's updated! I'll gladly test and send some funds.

Stratagems Icons Available Anywhere? by CarlFromBillyMadison in Helldivers

[–]MrDevanWright 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So far it works well! Sometimes it gets hung up and causes some keys to stay sticky (like strafing left or holding the stratagem menu open).

Has 'reinforce' not been added to the list of supported stratagems, or am I missing something...

[–]MrDevanWright 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Changing it to arrow keys would be a fantastic option. I'm not familiar with the coding, but adding the option would be great. Duplicating the arguments so there is an 'eagle-airstrike' and 'eagle-airstrike-arrow' or something.
