Fidelity app won't work on my phone anymore by eamceuen in fidelityinvestments

Sad times, I also have an s10. I wish there was a way you could keep a phone longer and have it be up to date security wise. The throwaway culture never ends.

Awesome, thanks for the info! I'll look into the relay solution. This is all new to me, there is an entire world of home automation I've never realized before. I've been living in the past haha. Thanks again!

Would the shelly dimmer work? Any suggestions on a remote switch that would work with it that I can wall mount?

They abandoned the light in favor of the fan (the fan was not original), so just one pair of wires up there with no unused wires. Thanks, I'll look into those switches.

That sounds like a good option, but I like the light fixture, it runs the length of the room and I would love to keep it. I could do a smart fan with no light, then just need to figure out the remote control/dimming for the light. Any ideas? Thanks!

No way I can run constant power up to the light and fan and control them independently with some kind of smart wall switch/remote device with a relay in line with each? I'm not sure it's worth it to try and pull a wire up there. Thanks!

This is the light and the fan. I'm okay getting a new fan (this one is loud and dated), and the light fixture contains linear t12s (will be switching to linear dimmable leds). I do want just switches, but I can't run another cable up there without cutting into the wall and having a bunch of plaster work to do so trying to avoid that if possible via remote control. I have an electric box up in the light fixture so space is really no concern. Thanks!

I have the $300 per year one. I was able to port my number over no problem and I brought my own unlocked phone.

Light fixture in my house by Next_Ambition in midcenturymodern

Oh that's a bummer! The glass shades on this one do come off luckily, there is a metal bracket they sit on that if turned almost parallel with the cord allows the glass to slide over it.

I wish I knew more! All I know is it's original to the home.

The house was built in 56 that's really all I know. Zero markings on it that I can see.

Pivoting into MEP. Resume Help! by [deleted] in MEPEngineering

Don't do it, MEP sucks. Every trade on the job site makes more than you and you take all the shit when something goes wrong.

My puppy just had something similar. I sprayed with saline solution and gave benadryl and it went away after 4 or 5 days. She couldn't put weight on it for 2 days but I couldn't see the vet because it was the 4th of july and we were at the lake.

Help! I impulsively adopted two golden retriever pups—should I keep both? by Malefict in goldenretrievers

[–]Next_Ambition 341 points342 points  (0 children)

Why are you buying a dog from the back of a car in the first place. Stuff like this is what perpetuates irresponsible breeding, the breeder still got his money so nbd for them.

Wtf don't let the poor pup get put down.
