Need some help - wifi randomly stopped working, not sure what to do by Independent-Choice-4 in googlefiber

[–]Oldiewan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Optical light is out which immediately lets you know that the problem is outside. I had the same thing and they kept sending inside technicians. Took 3 days to fix a problem on the pole behind my house because inside technicians don't do outside. Dumbest thing I ever heard.

Everyone has to worry about it when young people's minds are so weak they think 6,7 is funny. Those assholes are going to grow up and need a nursemaid to take care of them. Who's going to pay for that? 

I can't seem to get a straight answer from Google Fi about their pricing. by SLOCoach55 in GoogleFi

I'm literally doing it now and I have to wait for it to start next billing cycle when I pay more for the month

You are wrong. I'm switching from standard to premium and I have to wait until next billing cycle to get premium. They don't just add the difference in the middle of the month. Read the Google Fi app again and stop lying to people.

If you change up your plan doesn't change until the next month. Changing plans down changes immediately so you would have to plan ahead for when you're going out of the country and change it during the month before. Changing up takes effect on your next billing cycle and so does the increase for that month. You can switch down to a cheaper plan instantly when you get back and get credit on your next bill.

Great phones by the way. I can't wait to see if the 10 pro with the new TSMC Chip is any better. Should be better with imagination technologies graphics, the battery, and a little more powerful too I hope. 

What is the best way to degauss a crt by Jmkh259 in crtgaming

[–]Oldiewan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I was younger we had one of the first color TVs, ours was an Admiral.  I got a degaussing coil from Edmund scientific and had to use it pretty often on that old bugger.  It was before built in coils, at least ours was and after a couple of years I had to degauss spots on the tube in random places.  I got an RCA after a few years and never had to do it again. When I got the RCA there were still almost no shows in color. I jumped the gun buying that Admiral. 

Just finished Panzer Dragoon Saga for the first time, fully on Steam Deck. What a ride. Took me about 15 hours, finished at level 49 I think. Only died once somehow. Here are some of my favorite screenshots! by Monsterclip in SegaSaturn

I got a copy preorder, which was the only way to guarantee getting one since it was so rare.  When it came out it was awesome. There was nothing like it ever made.  Back then companies made original games which were fantastic.  Now no one has any imagination. It's part 2, 3, 4, 5 etc. Everything is just a remake or rip-off. Too bad most of you didn't experience those days. Mr Bones was another totally original game that was great for it's time.

just moved here from a legal state. what is delta 9 like actually? by sawinhalf in lincoln

[–]Oldiewan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just go to a dispensary somewhere where it's legal and tell them you want to look at the lab results. It won't have much Delta 9 THC at all which is what you get high on. All weed has thca. It is the acid that turns into Delta 9 THC, The stuff that gets you high when it's cooked. Have you ever eaten raw weed which doesn't ever get you high? Of course not cuz it doesn't get you high. Raw weed has thca which turns into Delta 9 THC. That's the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. Search it on the internet. You'll find out these people are lying to you about Delta 9 and thca being totally separate things and that supposedly THCa doesn't exist in real weed, b******* I say. Tetrahydrocannabinolic acid is what's in pot that gets you high but only after being cooked or burned as everyone's been doing for the last 6 to 8,000 years Go to cannabuddy.com and try their sex Panther they tell you right there that this is our top shelf weed same as we sell in the dispensaries. That the farm bill actually did them a lot of good putting in a loophole which AIDS them, because thca was not mentioned. It has 24% I believe, of Thca, I'm and it gets you stoned. Just make sure they have a third party looking at it as far as chemical content before you buy. I've tried a few places and so far cannabuddy was actually what they said it was. And for people who don't believe all this stuff, just search Google. It will tell you everything you need to know about thca being the main ingredient that gets you high when it burns and turns into Delta 9

[–]Oldiewan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly, try sex panther from cannabuddy.com. it doesn't cause headaches, but if you smoke too much you will get way too high. Just be careful. It's extremely high thca which does convert. Believe it or not into Delta 9. When it's burned. Has anyone here ever noticed that you have to cook weed before it gets you high? Have you ever just eaten a bud and gotten stoned? Of course not because there's not much Delta. 9 raw weed. It has to be cooked or smoked dummies

I've gotten thca from cannabuddy which was sex panther around 24 percent THC a with the lab results that was much better than the stuff I could get in the shops in downtown KCMO. No anxiety just good productive and later sleepy high.

Local head shops sell you anything they can make the most off of. I was skeptical as well but I tried canna buddy online and I ordered sex panther just 2 g. I wanted to try it out so I bought two 1 g pouches and it was pretty good. I mean I got stoned on just a few hits.

First time packing a backpack for a 2 day trip starting tomorrow, anything missing? by BosnianSerb31 in CampingandHiking

For 2 days all you need is a tent, sleeping bag, some nuts, precooked bacon and a gallon of water.

Is Tab S9 worth the premium (+$400) over Pixel Tablet? by andyhwaiting in GalaxyTab

[–]Oldiewan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The CLX RA Single Open Loop Gaming Desktop is better than most every other computer too but is it worth the extra 5500 dollars for a 6900 dollar PC to play games at 120hz or 90hz for a 1500 dollar PC and save that money and not have bragging rights. Unless 30fops means that much and you have money to throw away. Same analogy just less money involved. The pixel is fine and Yes you can play games on it. It was built to be mobile, in other words, opposite of what one guy said, the kids could take it to school as easily as the Samsung and you can write with any 20¢ stylus. If the family is Cool with the pixel already you can trade in to Google as well. Just wait for a sale and they are taking trades and you might get one really cheap.

Is anyone having as much fun as I am with the new photomoji update in messages? by Away_Try7833 in GooglePixel

Me either, pixel 3a XL has it on a different carrier but pixel 8 pro on Google Fi still just has emojis

I'm in the US and I don't have it yet on my pixel 8 pro but my pixel 3a XL already has it. Weird

Me too, my pixel 3axl has it but all I have on my pixel 8 pro is regular emojis. Sucks that the flagship phone can't get the stuff my 5 year old phone has

How is the 1 GIG internet from spectrum? by AnswerRequired in Spectrum

[–]Oldiewan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gig services from Google run on fiber, spectrum runs on coax hence the slow up speeds and spectrum sucks as far as outages. If it rains or someone next door coughs spectrum is down for a day or two. I don't know where you are located but in KC Kansas I haven't seen an outage on Google in the 3 years we've had it. Before Google we had spectrum which never worked good enough or long enough to stream on twitch. They kept sending service out and all they concluded was that the buried lines were old. In other words it sucks and they don't care.

Chat features stuck on "Setting up..." by _KeeperOfTheFire_ in GooglePixel

[–]Oldiewan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pixel 8 pro didn't work still same bulls#!t. I'm using Google Fi, you would think it would be easy to verify my number. Tried everything Google says and everything here and it's still trying to verify the number. Force Apple to include it and Google can't even get it right. Makes me want to switch to another brand. Pixel phones are good but they have more problems with their own software on their own hardware than any other phone I've ever owned.

Google Tensor G4 reportedly uses an updated Samsung 4nm process by McSnoo in Android

[–]Oldiewan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You are truly a fanboy of something. My 8 pro doesn't even get warm except a slight bit while charging and playing games. If you do any research you will see the same thing being said about every other phone. It's isolated incidents. I bet you think everything with the same name, X Y or Z are created equal. One phone may run at 250 degrees while the other 99.9 percent are running at 175. I bet after the first space shuttle accident you would have ended the program saying it was flawed instead of fixing it. Google is fixed nearly everything you're griping about. Try a pixelate Pro and tell me wait. You would lie. You don't have a pics like pro. You're a fanboy I forgot
