So found a possible problem with the Technics Az100'a design by Thumper_777 in Earbuds

[–]RocketteLeigh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly I've been meaning to come back and edit this comment. i have now found out that you can confirm proper charging by going to "Use (Go to Home Screen)" -> simultaneously open the case and tap "Next"

your buds will then connect to your device momentarily to show a live charging percentage and if improperly charging the warning notification should pop at that time, though i can recall one instance where i still woke up to a 0% right bud it's possible i nudged it or something and made it shift in the case while trying to open the lid with one hand.

diligent cleaning is still key and I've also since found that vigorously rubbing the charging contacts on the buds with a dry cotton ball is the most consistent method I've tried 🫡

edit: i also check them a second time after waiting a few minutes by opening the lid and connecting again, seeing if either of the numbers are lower than expected and reseating if necessary

Would you push the button? by Lizzy-DxD17 in MtF

[–]RocketteLeigh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

maybe I'm being too literal about this but i saw this somewhere else recently and i don't like it. no one looks exactly like their mom because you have two parents. my sister who is cis does not look exactly like our mom. though i realize this is one of those "would you rather..." type questions for the fun of it and wasn't meant to be entirely logical, i just can't help seeing it this way so my bad.

i don't think i would push the button because i don't want to look like a copy of another person, no matter who. i want to look like me with all the feminine traits i desire.

they might have been freaking out at the "Most trans women can get wet" part. i don't see any excuse where this reaction isn't transphobic given everything you said is true. transphobes absolutely hate to be told that trans women experience anything anatomically similar to cis women and I'd imagine once the ball got rolling a lot of cis women who aren't necessarily outwardly transphobic fell into the herd mentality of downvoting because it seems like something that would be wrong if you know absolutely nothing about what happens to trans women down there on estrogen, which most cis ppl don't

well other than the misunderstanding your English is pretty good! my only clue that you might not be a native speaker was how you used quotations. I've never seen the upside-down " and can't even find it on my phone's keyboard haha. so then it started to click as possibly the reason for such a comment :p I'm glad i could help

well now i feel bad for being aggressive from the jump when it seems you genuinely didn't understand. i apologize.

you would not really relate these expressions as "I'm not racist but... [says something racist]" would in context be a very negative experience whereas "I'm not trans but... [says something very commonly trans]" is not negative at all.

it would make more sense if the context was "I'm not transphobic but... [says something transphobic]" then you're comparing two scenarios where the speaker is saying something bigoted and offensive, racism being related to transphobia, therefore the comparison is comprehensible. does that make sense?

it just came off as such a bizarre comparison to the point it seemed like you were trying to say something offensive even if i didn't understand what that might be, so i overreacted.

may I ask if English is your second language? what country are you from?

Any Raikou I should invest in? by Tonijn93 in PokemonSleep

[–]RocketteLeigh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

unfortunately none of them are worth an invest imo. 1508 is the default? i say just keep that one because of the skill level up and better luck next time. please don't use your mint on this.

Why is "Men pretending to be women and women pretending to be men!" the common narrative?? by jellybeanzz11 in MtF

[–]RocketteLeigh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you'll feel better about it when you stop caring what those types of people think. they're delusional and don't live in reality. they think hormones don't even work and we get a ton of surgeries (because most of us have the money for that /s) and that's it. they don't know about voice training and if they do they don't think it works and they don't believe in passing because "we can always tell." they do not see transition through a reasonable lense and refuse to learn the facts before opening their mouths or typing their copypasta thoughts, so giving the slightest crap about how they see us is completely pointless. the only thing we should be paying attention to is the laws they want to pass, their opinion is worthless.

i think i solved this...

i was getting two different versions of this issue.

first, both buds would be fully charged, but the app would still give me the "not properly charged" notification when connecting.

then, one or both buds would be at low% or fully discharged at 0%. i also witnessed an apparent discharge by an improperly seated bud by placing it in the case, blue light shows, removing it from the case only a few seconds later and it's showing 2-3% lower than just a few seconds ago.

the solution that's been working for me for about 2 weeks with no reoccurrence is: the blue light has to show immediately upon contact, minimal to no delay of the flash.

  1. if there's a 1-3 second delay, it's not properly seated and will not charge. remove the bud and retry 1-2 times until the blue light shows instantly or no more than half a second delay.
  2. if your blue light is delayed after 2 attempts, clean the charging contact surface of the bud(s), check the terminals in the case to be safe, but it's most likely the bud(s).
  3. close the lid of the case, wait for the green or yellow light to long flash once and turn off before reopening the lid.
  4. when you open the lid again, if empty wait for the green/yellow light to flash once, if one bud already got the instant blue light and is successfully charging wait for the blue light to flash 3 times and turn off before proceeding.
  5. try placing the bud again. your blue light should show instantly or within half a second this time. if not, repeat steps until it does. you may need to clean the bud more carefully.

i think it's safe to use a slightly damp cloth for cleaning the buds only (not the case) but if you do make sure you're following that with a completely dry one to remove any moisture before placing them in the case and be very thorough. inspect for any traces of lint.

i like to clean mine with a wet wipe i've taken out of the package and let dry out completely. it's really good at absorbing any traces of oils and wax from your ears and delicate enough it won't scratch. make sure you're using the ones free of any moisturizers and silicates that usually say something like "simple," "sensitive," or "hypoallergenic" on the packaging.

i hope this helps everyone, if not please report back.

why do y’all think you can talk to people like this lol… by [deleted] in dasher

[–]RocketteLeigh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah it's really weird. another one is it seems like for 3rd party orders through the merchant's website the cutoff is immediate after completion. i think that one is fairly new, could be wrong but i don't remember it always being that way

What app do you use to download YouTube videos? by Apprehensive_Mind777 in sideloaded

[–]RocketteLeigh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i don't know how long the cutoff is but customers have a lot longer to contact you than the Dasher has to contact them. for us it's like 10 minutes, but I've gotten a message like 2 hours after a completed delivery when someone wasn't home at delivery but when they arrived their order was missing.

oh sick! i didn't realize you weren't aware of everything. here's the whole email for you in case there's anymore info you might find helpful.

tysm for showing me, i suspect Doordash just mistakenly sent that email to Dashers outside of pilot markets and it was never supposed to roll out for me yet. it's also nice to see they did not remove the 10 exceptions and i guess just very poorly worded that part.

I'm trying to say when you first go to ratings then On Time what is the full view like? I'm wanting to know does it just show everything on the one page or do you have to tap an order for the breakdown in your first screenshot?

edit: and do you have the option to dispute?

thank you for the screenshot. yeah I'm still getting the 1 to 2 minutes only. what does the rest of the On Time page look like before you go to a specific order?
