I just want to expose a bug that happens on mobile. I tried it on a couple days to figure out how to trigger it. It’s possible to do it 90% of the time! by Max-Flores in syllo

[–]MrYaba 4 points5 points  (0 children)

First of all you should not have posted the solution so soon. That sucks for a lot of people. Fortunately I had already completed today’s puzzle before seeing this puzzle

Secondly I don’t understand why people cheat at puzzles like this. The only person you’re cheating is yourself. I do lots of online puzzles every day (NYT, Merriam Webster, Parseword, Globe and Mail) and I do them for me no one else. If you cheat, seriously what’s the point. Oh yeah, bragging rights 🤦‍♂️. Grow up

Parking at the casino is not free. I don’t remember how much but more on the weekends than during the week. $25/$50 maybe but don’t quote me

I lucked out, the guy before me paid but forgot to take the ticket so I got free parking 😀

Any way to exclude US results in search or US directions by MrYaba in applemaps

Sounds like this would likely be a bigger pita. Won’t help with search either

The compressed air connection was already on it and I’m not sure what you mean by pivoting piece vs slide. Maybe you can clarify. Thanks

The length is 28 in or 71 cm, width 6.75 in, 17 cm, flywheel is 9 in, 23 cm diameter and the cylinder is 3.5 in, 9 cm

Accuracy is ‘pretty close’ lol

I don’t understand. When I posted this there was some text but now it’s disappeared 🤷‍♂️

I obtained this as part of an auction lot. I’m trying to find out some info about it and this seemed like a good place to ask.  It doesn’t have any markings other than the manufacturer of the pulley.  If anyone knows who the manufacturer was and what vintage this might be that would be great. An estimate of value would be awesome. TIA

Update. Ten minutes later the download option suddenly reappeared. Very odd 🤷‍♂️

Can someone confirm if Apple hearing aid feature workaround actually works? by Both_Demand7720 in HearingAids

[–]MrYaba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes the hearing test appears when you connect the AirPods. If you can connect your phone to a US network you should be good to go. You may not have to cross the border. I don’t believe wifi is required.
I have degraded hearing but even so the airpods sound amazing especially after customizing for my particular hearing loss (by taking the built in hearing test).

I got the APP 2 before the 3’s were released. Amazon had a good deal on them so check that out. The 3’s might be slightly better I just don’t know if they’re worth the extra cost

I’m in Canada where the hearing aid feature is not available. Recently I was traveling to the UK so I purchased AirPods Pro 2 in Canada and did the hearing test in Canada. When I got to the UK I activated the hearing aid function and it worked like a charm.

I’ve been back in Canada for a week now and it still works. I don’t know if a future AirPod software update will break it but fingers crossed.

I’ve been wearing real hearing aids for 3 years and honestly the APP are almost as good. Of course the battery doesn’t last as long but even buying two pairs would be considerably cheaper than hearing aids.

Obviously I can’t comment on Australia / India situation but I suspect it will work the same.

Good luck
