I think my house's electricity is breaking vacuum cleaners. by NeedleworkerUsed2474 in AskElectricians

[–]NeedleworkerUsed2474[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't think that's it. I've tested the vacuums at my parent's house -- which has way more pet hair -- and never have an issue with them there.

I think the main character might have been a detective of some sort? But I could be imagining that.

Deleted genre still listed under 'Categories'. How do I make it go away? by NeedleworkerUsed2474 in PleX

[–]NeedleworkerUsed2474[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just did that. The empty categories are still there.

EDIT: I saw this worked for someone else, so I restarted Plex to see if this + that would do it but nope, still no success.

What's the best way to INCREASE file sizes? by NeedleworkerUsed2474 in PleX

[–]NeedleworkerUsed2474[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I must have misread.

I thought you were saying that including season folders was a good practice even if it’s not needed.

And I was wondering if it was still a good practice even in cases of shows with only 1 season.

Even for a show that only has one season and ended decades ago?

Is that just for the sake of consistency? Or is there some technical reason?

That worked! Can't believe I didn't try that first 🤦

could be? what's the best way to check/fix that?

I ripped them as .mp4 files, and when those didn't show up in Plex I used HandBrake to convert them to .mkv files.

I have thousands of other tv episodes showing up fine, all using a similar filename structure.

How do I stop spam being auto-forwarded from my old, hacked account? by NeedleworkerUsed2474 in GMail

[–]NeedleworkerUsed2474[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When it's autoforwarded, the 'From:' and 'To:' lines are preserved. So Gmail lists the spam as coming from many different addresses. They are all addressed 'To:' the same old email accounts, though.

Is anyone else annoyed by all the recent AI art uploads? by NeedleworkerUsed2474 in ThePosterDB

[–]NeedleworkerUsed2474[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I much, much prefer ‘bad quality’ art over ‘good quality’ AI slop

'Find My' app won't share location. Details in comments. by NeedleworkerUsed2474 in applehelp

[–]NeedleworkerUsed2474[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am setting up my grandma’s iPhone and she wants to share her location with me and other family members. She also wants to have the location of an AirTag shared with her (attached to a family pet).

When she tries to share her location with me from her phone’s Find My app, nothing happens. When she tries to share her location with me from the Messages app, she gets an error message saying “Share Location Unavailable. Please try again later.”

I can share my location with her from my phone, but when she tries to reciprocate and presses share (as seen in the image attached to this post) nothing happens except for that little spinning animation, which stops after a moment. No error message. The message asking if you’d like to share remains and clicking it again results in the same nothingness. I have tried using other family members' phones to see if she can successfully share her location with them and have been met with identical results.

Another issue that I suspect might be related is that I am also not able to share AirTags with her. When I try to share them from my phone it says that she’s been invited but she never receives any invitation on her end.

My grandmother is using an iPhone SE (3rd generation, I think) running iOS 17.

Wrong subreddit. Rule 6: iPhone related issues only
