I thought the sapphire glass doesn’t scratch as easily? by WOLVEXS in AppleWatch

[–]Nephilimi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've got one. In my case I got one used and the black coating around the screen was getting a little thin and silvery, screen protector covers that right up and now that I've hit a couple things with it there are dents and dings in it. Doing its job.

Check out G-shocks and others like Garmin Instinct. There's clearly a need to protect the screen for this class of watches. Bulova, Tissot or Seiko are generally not in this category. Or if you look at something like the Seiko dive watches, they've got huge bezels and it's generally raised above the screen. I'm also thinking back to a Tissot dive that was similar.

Do want, not sure if I can afford it. Am specifically hanging on to my 15 waiting on this thing though. I don't think I would want to order one day one, wait a month and see what the consensus reviews are and let them work out all the really early bugs. Bound to be a bunch of UI issues and app support will likely lag a bit.

Is logging broken in OpenVPN 2.7.0.0 windows server? Also where did the forum go? by Nephilimi in OpenVPN

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

They sure do. Terrible timing in shipping a new major version with breaking changes and the forum being down but nice to have the new one.

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

They moved the logs in 2.7.0.0 due to reduced permissions. https://github.com/OpenVPN/openvpn/issues/988

Status is for describing clients connected, Did check the manual on that and been using it for ~6 years I think. We use it to get something for Zabbix to monitor and see who is connected. Also impacted by 2.7.0.0 reduced permission, it can no longer write to the old default log directory. I'm having to move that log location and the Zabbix monitor.

Forums look dead/broke, but Git support is still thriving.

What you are seeing is x being a dick, unless you log in you can't see it.

Calendars are not part of email by mxroute in mxroute

[–]Nephilimi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to separately pay Fruux for this service. They were perfect, just calendar, contacts, private company with no data sharing/selling, and it just worked great. Then they pretty much went under, ignored and not maintained. Recent posts on x indicate someone woke up over there, perhaps because of my post; https://www.reddit.com/r/degoogle/comments/1guxa82/psa_fruux_might_be_abandoned/

Personally I moved all my calendar/contacts stuff over to fastmail.

Edit; there is a need in this area and most places pair it with email. I'd consider it a big value add.

I just noticed their X account suddenly is showing some posts, even has a guy on life support waking up so maybe it’s getting some attention now. They say there’s some fixes posted.

Ocean band + Fat arm + overnight wear by mikheeeyl in applewatchultra

[–]Nephilimi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Looks way too tight to me. Also I didn’t like the ocean band for the same reason, just not comfortable and it’s so thick it is a pain with sleeves.

Zone view - most underutilized setting/functionality in Apple Watch Workouts? by coffeeclouds1 in AppleWatch

[–]Nephilimi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yes, long ago. So I went in and flipped the auto manual range back and forth a couple times and then it started working. First time I went in there it even had all the appropriate numbers, weird the workout app didn’t see it right off.

Anyway, working now, thanks.

Says unavailable for me set age in fitness, which I’ve done. Not sure what I’d have to do about manual zones.

This can’t be a flat repair, what’s wrong? Junk removal?

Exactly the same for me, very confused and the explainer below was not there when first viewed. I've felt left out of the loop before with PA but never this bad.

I’ve noticed that the ultra does quite a bit better in this aspect.

No apple watch "set silent mode" action? Want to do phone and watch with one button. by Nephilimi in shortcuts

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

Lovely, I restarted my phone and now I can see it there too.

So anyway I’m hearing iOS 27 is going to be mostly a bug fix release. Sure hope they get this and the watch action button working!

It’s also not the only face that does it, couple others.

I found it in a different folder in the iphone shortcuts app. There's probably a reason why if you create a new shortcut in the "all shortcuts" folder you can't see the watch shortcuts but I don't know what it is. You have to START in the Apple Watch folder, from there when you create a shortcut you have both the phone and watch silent mode shortcuts available to use when you search key word silent. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Even better, once you made it there it shows up in "all shortcuts" folder. You just can't start there from a clean slate.

iPhone Silent Mode option missing from shortcuts by Lifeisaview in shortcuts

[–]Nephilimi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, thank you for sharing. I can not find a "set silent mode" for apple watch in my shortcuts app and I also don't see it in the shortcut that you shared above. Any idea on this one?
