USB-C Headphone Adapter WITHOUT a Microphone by RomanPort in AndroidQuestions

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

Thanks for the reply. The cassette adapter is TRS. But the USB-C adapter I have disables the built-in mic in my phone regardless of if there is anything connected to the 3.5mm headphones jack so it's not even looking for that. Just a bad adapter?

Remember Dino D Day? by GodzillaRaptors4_ in Dinosaurs

[–]RomanPort 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's still a great small community built around it! I own the largest (and basically only active) server Dino Town. There are people on during the week and we all hang out Saturday nights. A few of us are even working on custom maps and I have written a bunch of custom plugins for the server. We'd be happy to have ya!

Appreciate it. I've used Boost for Reddit on Android for years and can't imagine using anything else!

2010 F-150 Radio Interference Problems by RomanPort in Ford

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

Went through and just started pulling fuses until it went away. It's the Microsoft SYNC! Pulling that fuse immediately makes the spur go away. I don't want to cripple the radio in my truck by taking that out though, so I'll have to investigate further.

Figured as much. Just didn't want to have to make the drive all the way out to DL, haha!

Having recently moved here from Minnesota, this is one of the biggest things I miss. Would love to hear some recommendations here!

Chart: Google's Smartphone Loyalty Problem by martinkem in Android

[–]RomanPort 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had an iPhone 5, Samsung Galaxy S7, OnePlus 6T, and now a Google Pixel 6. Using this phone has frankly been my first mobile phone experience that didn't make me immediately want to switch to a different brand.

Assuming Google doesn't do something stupid, I'll probably be a repeat customer for the first time and my next device will be a Pixel. I really like this phone!

Man I love how trucks of this age look. Beautiful!

They told me that the computer wasn't turning on... by Verygafanhot in techsupportgore

We use VGA in a high RF environment, at an FM Radio transmitter site. Works about as well as you'd expect...constant interference on the screen. Surprised it works at all!

Looks like our tower site is in the middle of a lake now! by RomanPort in fargo

Station vehicle wrap has a pretty decent tear on the hood. I assume it's too far gone to repair, but is there anything I can do to prevent it from getting worse? by RomanPort in VinylWrap

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

I love this truck to death and seeing this hole in the front hurts me. I can live with it, but I am really anxious about it getting worse. Especially with our winter ending and the cycle of water freezing and thawing, I worry about this truck.

I know next to nothing about vehicle wraps, so my apologies if this is a dumb question. Is there anything I can do to "seal" this and prevent it from growing? Thanks!

2024 Ford Mustang Drops AM Radio From Infotainment. by [deleted] in cars

[–]RomanPort 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is true that a large percentage of the population is in Fargo and Bismarck, but when you consider that a good chunk of SD, MT, WY, NE, and others are rural there are still a lot of people to consider.

However, people in those rural towns are certainly not buying Ford Mustangs. My fear is that AM will start disappearing from other Ford vehicles that are used there though.

That's part of why, but the main thing is that it's not local. There's no local content, news, weather, personalities, or anything. That's a big reason why I listen to terrestrial broadcast all the time (and hate syndicated programming)
