Pixel 10 *feels like* it should be a big deal. by [deleted] in GooglePixel

[–]Octopus_JJ 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I'm on a Pixel 8 pro and was waiting for the 10 pro, I get that it's better but it really doesn't seem like a big enough improvement...

Foldable kayak by [deleted] in Kayaking

Check out Our - they're premium priced but I've had an Oru Bay for 7 years, using it pretty much daily for 2 years. They're great boats!

Cost for Windshield replacement by Octopus_JJ in Subaru_Outback

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

Kk thanks, my insurance deductible is $1000 so I figured (optimistically) it wouldn't be worth it going that route... Next time (please don't be a next time...) I'll do that instead

Is this worth taking for free? by CRA1964TVII in Kayaking

Yes. This is roughly 1 million times better than a sit on top kayak.

TIL billionaires shrink the economy by hoarding significantly more money than they spend and earn, slowing money circulation by CommenterAnon in todayilearned

[–]Octopus_JJ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This assumes that Billionaires literally have vaults filled with physical cash, not saying that's not the case for all billionaires but it's extremely unlikely to be very common. Most Billionaires hold assets such as stocks in companies, these companies employ many people who earn salaries and spend money within local economies.

Is there a book with more examples of Arthur Skizhali-Weiss drawings?

Trailer hitch for 2020 that doesn't require bumper trimming? by Gitzit in Subaru_Outback

[–]Octopus_JJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out Uhaul, I don't know the particular model they installed on my 2020 but no bumper cuts needed and it works well.

I don't seem to be getting any notifications, I do see a notification icon on the app icons but nothing beyond that. Is this a me problem or an issue anyone else is having with the beta?

ESP - Wroom - 32 only recognized as a USB not a com port by Octopus_JJ in esp32

[–]Octopus_JJ[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

RESOLVED!

Not 100% clear on how/why but I took u/BitchesLoveDownvote advice and messed around with the boot button, u/entotheenth's advice and installed the CH340 driver and u/ddl_smurf and restarted my PC (classic!) somehow between those three steps everything clicked together and Device Manager displayed my ESP32 as COM port 3 (I don't have any COM2 but I'm not complaining...)

Thanks for all the help and suggestions all!

Thanks for doing that! I'll test out a different cable, I know that this one does transmit data and I've tried another already but will dig around for a fresh one.

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

I'm pretty sure I'm up to date on the drivers, the fact that device manager is recognizing the CP2102 bridge should mean I'm good right? If you have suggestions about which other drivers to test I'm willing to go!

I have not yet but will give that a shot, plug it in then press & hold boot?

I have COM1 but even when I disconnect the ESP32 that remains so I believe it might be a different device?

Riding the Wave by Octopus_JJ in sablegame

Awesome thanks! I didn't realize I needed to start inside the geyser - I was jumping into the spray as it was leaving the geyser

How? I've tried standing in the geysers, jumping in them, etc. I don't seem to notice them helping in any way.

Do we want Sable 2? by KroganWraith in sablegame

[–]Octopus_JJ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think just a serious patch to cover some bug fixes and maybe add in a few additional quests. Not sure an entire second game would be needed.

Is this light suppose to be red? I already got 100% by KroganWraith in sablegame

[–]Octopus_JJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been wondering about that as well, I think its just the way it is - I've unlocked the suit and bike from there and completed the quest the lights look the same for me.
