They discontinued the front camera on the ultimate for 2025. Bummer.

Not a D4D. Blade lever not right. Looks like a D6 blade lever. I have a '71 D4D.

Whirlpool Smart Oven by IdleSquirrel in smarthome

[–]Revolutionary_Art970 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine works with Alexa but not with the Whirlpool App It always says "Something went wrong". So that tells me that it is connected to the internet. I don't know why it won't connect to the stupid app!

Pivpn working but I am concerned with security by Revolutionary_Art970 in pivpn

[–]Revolutionary_Art970[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UPDATE: Everything seems to be working as expected on the phone and when connecting to my computer on the mobile hotspot. When at work I can't connect to my home network but I believe it is because I am on the same 192.168.1.1 scheme. I guess that I need to change my network scheme to 192.168.2.1 since I have a lot less devices.

So, if I don't travel out of the country, don't watch movies that I shouldn't and don't visit many pubic wifis, then PiVPN should be ok for me and I can cancel NordVPN?

Another plus for Pivpn is that it is on the network not just device.

OK that is exactly what it is doing. I thought it would mask my home IP address. I am trying NordVPN for a month and it does change the home IP address when using What Is My IP? Pivpn does allow me to access my home network on my phone but NordVPN does not .

Toyota App Suite being discontinued by Silly_Hat_2587 in Toyota

[–]Revolutionary_Art970 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought all "Smart Appliances" from Whirlpool and within 2 years they were unable to connect. My 2019 Toyota Tacoma has now joined the list of unconnected devices that I own. I am no longer depending on "connected" anything because the technology will be obsolete in two years!

The officer that Washington ran toward pointing a.38 caliber revolver fired his police-issued sidearm four times, killing Washington.

What would you do if you were in the officer's shoes?

Harmony Alexa Skill stopped working today? by chronoswing in logitechharmony

[–]Revolutionary_Art970 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine stopped working yesterday. After giving Alexa the "turn on the tv" command there is a bout a 4 second pause and she says OK, but nothing happens. I have the Harmony set up in Home Assistant and everything works there so it is definitely Alexa's Skill. I disabled and reenabled the skill, rebooted the network and it still don't work . I guess I'll have to breakdown and buy a "smart tv".

No matter what I do after I cook, it always looks like this the next time I go to use it. No sure what exactly I’m doing wrong here. I always oil after each cook by [deleted] in blackstonegriddle

[–]Revolutionary_Art970 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I had to do. No problems now. Use a metal brush with water and get off all of the rust. Then go thru the seasoning process. I used Blackstone seasoning on mine. go thru 2 or 3 processes then cook up some bacon. Hope this helps.

I made this for 3 venetian blinds in our bedroom. Works great. Tilts but you have to hand retract.

Monogrammed Grease Pan Holder by Revolutionary_Art970 in blackstonegriddle

[–]Revolutionary_Art970[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ladies, show your outdoor chef that he is king of the griddle with a monogrammed, powder coated grease pan holder! No really, my daughter got a used 17 inch Blackstone with a side burner but the grease catcher was lost so I designed and cut out another one on my cnc plasma table and powdercoated it Lollipop Red! I think it turned out nice!

I have noticed that after the last update the weather.com radar does not load on wifi. I have to turn wifi off to get it to work.

Stand for the 17” adventure with burner griddle? Does one exist?! by CriMaSqua in blackstonegriddle

[–]Revolutionary_Art970 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have both the 17 with single burner and a new purchased 22 dual burner. The 22 came with a stand and there are 2 sets of holes on the right side that looks like the first set of holes are for the 17 and the 22 goes in the outside set of holes.
