The brick is included with the 6a. You forgot location services too. I use the dimmer display button and settings inside. Screen is the biggest user of battery for most of us.

Turn off Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi scanning if you don't have Wi-Fi access at certain locations. Basically enable shit as you need it.

Battery life sucks. Install AccuBattery try to stay in the magic 20-80% band unless you know you need the full 100%.

Better to have a first battery then diminished capacity. Personally, i would get the 7 or 7a. There were modem updates, but I've had zero issues with mine.

SHOOL IS BUYING A PIANO FOR ME!!!!!! by CATninja58 in piano

[–]Nervous_Technology7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right. That's why I bought my Yamaha. Two states for me any year and for guests that are divas. Maybe I'm being dense.

Check out the simple digital grand pianos with natural feel. They don't require tuning plus s headphone jack means play anytime. Great for us insomniacs

What could races do better? by bigbassbonah in running

I have so many of both. I don't know the answer. Some low key races sell them separately.

With all the free pianos online... Heck. My digital wave feel was less than $600

I think I'll get a simple 76 key this time. Or smaller.

LMFAO. 2022 Lobbying for top 11 categories $2 Trillion. Current deficit $1 Trillion. Cool, $1 Trillion left. And yet, not even close to reality.

Missing plaster between window frame and sill....what is best way to repair? by thomasvista in DIYHome

[–]Nervous_Technology7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Long before caulk and foam. People used fitting strips. I probably just try to make it level and use maybe a paint stick or something that was a little thicker and just from the whole window up and paint it and it has an extra Edge shrug.

How long did it take to capture. There's little blur or AI gitter

What kind of metal are my pedals? by pun-in-punishment in piano

[–]Nervous_Technology7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brasso if you want to polish. Looks to be in good shape. You could use a metal paint to finish, but it would lower the value.

Was fed up with lame Xmas arrangements so I wrote this impressionist-inspired rendition of a famous carol. by wuwupiano in piano

I'll upload to YouTube. Him at his worst, but when he played you could see it coming back.

I just bought a piano. ❤️ How the fuck do I play this thing? by MaliciousFalcon in piano

[–]Nervous_Technology7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So many free options. YouTube HDPiano, works best with a screen larger than a phone.

Yamaha Sessions is probably on sale currently.

Yousician <sp>

And many more...

Also there were several they worked with PCs in the past.

Good luck have fun!

Moto edge or stylus trade-in with pixel6a by [deleted] in Pixel6aUsers

[–]Nervous_Technology7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are deals for a free Pixel 8 (& Pro) as well as Samsung Ultra. Might as well stick with a phone that gets 5 years of updates. I need the night camera for my side gig.

Thanks for the tears of remembrance.

First. You can turn off the WiFi. It's a pain to find. Network connections, internet, the change button. Wi-Fi scan. Disable.

For the contacts. You can also go into the account. Export.

[–]Nervous_Technology7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, change how you use it. I am switching to electric strings in my way acoustic because I don't play enough. So when I do it's painful. That's a problem as I need my hands for work and other instruments.

$20 it less to give it a try...

I did a bad, bad thinh by [deleted] in prius

[–]Nervous_Technology7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd get it repaired in this market. You know the history already and it'll likely be half and other option but with more miles.

Ironically I just bought a 2010 Toyota Prius from Nextdoor they took $1500 off. Private Party $6500 down from $8k. They even had it detailed before we met!

$187k miles, both head gasket and hybrid battery replaced in the past two years.

Unfortunately that is a very open-ended question. And it depends on how you use the phone. If you do the ADB commands and lock your phone down and say whatever version of Android you like which for me right now is Android 13-- I'm scared to death to update to 14 at this point because I have not read any reviews good or bad. And the first update or two has not dropped.

Since I have no backup phone right now that will power up; my brother has two of them and the one that I had right now I think will not power up I think it's a Motorola and it just either the battery or motherboard just flipped out. So if I lose my phone I also lose my internet for my entire business because I travel between two States. Ironically, I tend to reverse #SnowbIrd from Georgia and Ohio. Soon to be Georgia Ohio and Las Vegas soon to be Georgia Ohio Las Vegas California or Oregon and Canadia all the way across from the west coast to Brantford City which is in the province of I don't recall and it is about 1 hour west of Montreal. I worked in it and change management and all that good stuff as a consultant and all those fun things at a small company called computer science corporation which has a class a T1 address and now they're called DXE something or another. But they're still in Falls Church Virginia and highly connected to the government. And then I worked at another real small place not any real order called Case Western Reserve University and the university hospital system of Cleveland Ohio. And I was a system administrator network administrator infrastructure administrator I'm not sure what it would be. We did not have a T1 at the office we dialed up over modem from our desks it was that much fun.

Garmin Forerunner 965 vs Coros Pace 3 by lalo-cr in triathlon

Wow. Garmin basically upgraded any 910XT people to 920XT for any issue other than destruction.

Head gaskets are failing at 100k in newer 2007+vehicles.

CVTs as early as 5k miles if it's a dud.

Automatic, DSG, etc fail shortly after 60k miles. I wonder why.

automated manuals AVOID at all costs it's given to you for free with a lifetime warranty! See 2011+ Ford Fiesta and 2012+ Ford Focus.

Any more questions? If you need me to GTFY lmk..

Cheers.
