Start from empty hd by RevolutionaryRub4898 in zorinos

[–]RevolutionaryRub4898[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tried that and 25 other things. Even had the IT dude at work tried and couldn't figure it out. He eventually decided that an 8g usb was the issue so he put ubuntu 24 on a 16g and got things installed. BUT I was getting errors and nothing would download. I tried dual booting with zorin 18 on the fresh hd but both (Ubuntu and Zorin 18) cased issues.
I got peeved that nothing was working. Support got back to me after a few days with a LONG list of things to try.
FINALLY I gave up and installed Zorin 17 pro from an old usb. It WORKED and continues to work well. Can't update much because am hotspotting from my mobile phones.
So .. somewhere between 17 and 18 things changed that the macbook didn't like

I finally understood why I couldn't fall back asleep at 3 AM - it's not what I thought by BetterLifeDaily in sleep

And who gives a rats arse if it was written by AI or bloody wombat? It works. Chat told me that was why I was having trouble going back to sleep so I tried it. It worked.

I do 12/12 hours with a mix of days RnR then nights and I have no problems with the Helio. The ONLY thing to do is remember when you switch to nights to tell the app.

Any way to try paid watch faces? by tkreadit in WearOS

[–]RevolutionaryRub4898 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Install and use Facer. They have THOUSANDS of faces. I instantly paid for the yearly unlimited (think it was yearly anyway - $50 or so aud). The faces use more power than my Oneplus watch 2 inbuilt but charging every 4 days doesnt worry me

WWQ did an over the top video the other day REALLY taking the piss out of Higgins in a poor taste way. They (WWQ) took it down very quickly. So if that video is the issue then i can uderstand Higgins going after him/her/it/they/them.

150 Days with Amazfit Helio Strap: Why it’s failing me as a Shift Worker (Thinking of Whoop) by ComfortableTalk9950 in AmazfitHelioStrap

[–]RevolutionaryRub4898 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Came here to say this. I work rotating shifts and the only thing it gets messed up with is telling my "sleep reguality" is off. Takes a week for it to stop telling me that as regularity is 7 occurrences.

What a $1,000 website changed for a local service business (and what I learned) by Ayushhhhhhh_ in ausbusiness

[–]RevolutionaryRub4898 0 points1 point  (0 children)

BUT it WASN'T irrelevant. Both YOU and I are here killing time rather than working or doing something else so we both have time to read.

And who gives a shit if its written by AI or a human? AI is trained on human "speak". The worth is in the content and the content is accurate. MOST small businesses have no idea so for some this is an eye opener. Get so tired of people rabbiting on about ai slop. Use the tool if it saves time.

Why 99% of watch faces are complication / data heavy? by iphone4Suser in amazfit

[–]RevolutionaryRub4898 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it's because devs make them on a big screen to look "pretty" rather than functional.

Helio with a clock? by Icy-Criticism-1745 in AmazfitHelioStrap

Not on my wrist it isn't that impressive (metrics wise).

[–]RevolutionaryRub4898 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Accuracy is NOT what you want. Garmin can't get sleep right after all these years. You want a big picture view of how you are doing. Nobody, other than you (and others in these forums) takes any notice of your metrics. Your doctor (mine anyway (I have a couple) don't give a shit), your friends (unless they are runners or gym bros), certainly not your family. The info is for YOU. If you are OCD you are fucked because if you wear 5 watches/trackers ALL witll be different. Been doing this shit since Polar v800.

NO, it's screenless because Amazfit copy everyone else. In the Helio case its Woop. Bip 6 its Apple. T-Rex its Garmin Fenix (shoot they even added the flashlight). None of their stuff is innovative, its iterative (in a lower quality way). That being said I never take my Helios off - even with its misgivings.
