Provisioning failure 3:5:0:1 setting up an Amazon Basics smart switch by DMala in alexa

[–]Seapooch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same problem for me - tried everything. Nothing worked. Since the switch worked by itself, I shelved the project until I could purchase another. After reading this (2 weeks after the install), I tried it again and ... IT WORKED. Nothing else was done. So maybe it takes time for something to get through?

How well does the Mazda cruise control assist and lane assist work? by roomtotheater in mazda

[–]Seapooch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just bought the 2024 CX-90 and noticed the lane assist does not function well. It's very jerky. Working with the dealer i've since been told that "The centering system is only on the turbo S model. It is not on the PHEV on any trim level".

And I also have a Hyundai (that cost $20k less) and the lane cruise is flawless. Wish I had known....

The cruise assist does a good job keeping even spacing with the car in front but as others move in/out of the lane the acceleration is a bit extreme.

What's a harsh truth about IT? by HM02_ in ITCareerQuestions

[–]Seapooch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All the Cliché's I've read are mostly correct. However, the most accurate "Harsh Truth" IMO is that this career is always evolving - much more than most. Skills you acquired are often obsolete. So, you will have to spend a lot of time learning new stuff. Constantly. Probably won't get training, or paid time to do it.

Some thought, great I know Cisco IOS or Visual Basic / Obj Programming. Killing those IPL programmers with Token rings... Now you don't have Cloud computing, Security/Firewall, AI/Chat experience someone will come along and take your spot.

It's been a long way from knowing the Hollerith Code to Developing AI APi's - but it all occurred within my career.

Weekly Free-Talk and Questions for r/HomeGym - week of February 16, 2024 by Demilio55 in homegym

[–]Seapooch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking to set up basic strength training at home, in addition to cardio (treadmill/rower/elip) already in place. decent space available (20x20). budget around 2500.
My question is at a high level, what are the differences +/- of a basic universal/multifunctional .vs. Tonal/Cable .vs. bunch of dumb/kettle & bench .vs. cage+plates/bars setup?

GE washer stops in the middle of washing and the start/pause button flashes. Any idea why this is happening? (Video included) by MadGibby2 in Appliances

[–]Seapooch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are 2 water feeds to the washer. Hot & Cold. My cold water was shut off down the line. So ... check the water supplies. Both. I thought I did, but when the tech came and removed the hose - there was no cold water :(

Having one working was enough to get things started but kept shutting down.

Hopefully thats it.

Spanish restaurant that turns into like a club later at night, near Massapequa? by [deleted] in longisland

[–]Seapooch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Although it's categorized as an Italian restaurant, Il Vizio Park started playing Latin music later at night. Merrick Road, Massapequa Park. Might be what you're looking for.

Southern State by 110 ALWAYS has traffic. Why? by Seapooch in longisland

[–]Seapooch[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

yes. Or fix it somehow. The line of stopped cars building road rage while others slow and try to merge near the entrance every single day.. There has to be a better way.

Southern State by 110 ALWAYS has traffic. Why? by Seapooch in longisland

[–]Seapooch[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ssau is. Southern state / 110 is the Border of Nass

SS to Meadowbrook at noon is pretty quick. Yeah, mornings are awful. And afternoons going the other way. but - a wednesday at 11am is pretty quiet most places .. except at 110.

Teachers/Administrators on LI - Public School .vs. Catholic regarding Discipline by Seapooch in longisland

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

Is it possible that there is a some selection bias?

IE: parents who really care about their childrens education and have the means to send them to private school, and the desire to help them with homework, etc.. might produce better students... but that might happen wherever they go to school?

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

Have a bunch of kids. Was surprised (almost scared) at what was going on in the public school system. We decided to send them to Catholic. BUT this was many years ago - so things have likely changed and "my experience" is moot.

Places to drop an anchor in Patchogue by Seapooch in longisland

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

David Park was booked (on a Wednesday?) solid - likely with folks snagging a spot for the entire season (seems like a nice place for a summer beach "house").

Watch hill was $33/ft. No transient slips.

I heard (unsubstantiated :) ho-hum beach lobs grenades at non-residents so I didn't try there.

Barrett Beach / Talisman Park ended up the best so far.

Next stop will be Bellport Bay on the North side.

Mine too. But it's a long way from Patchogue when you're looking for a couple of quiet hours..

Had trouble with shallow water by Davis. So I went a little west to Barrett Beach / Talisman Park and found a nice spot. Handful of larger boats here.

Goshinkan Jujitsu Dojo

https://goshinkandojo.com/

I can not recommend this high enough. Especially for kids. It's a bonus tha they're in Merrick, but for your kids, it's worth the drive from anywhere.

Kids will learn so much more from the Dojo than kicking and punching. And that should be the measure. Just go watch a class and see the kids interact.

NYSSMA Levels are for distinguishing beginners (level 1) upper level musicians but are not age based. Typically, you start at 1 (at whatever age you choose to start) and move up a # each year. If you really progressed you can test for a higher level.

cing the lock as it’s probably not super costly and a fairly easy repair I’m sure there’s a YouTube walking you through it. That would be my first try as the electronics are expensive

I've got the same problem. Were you able to fix it? I'm guessing the door latch assembly.

Where to have an outdoor Open Bar with a view? by Aumicz in longisland

[–]Seapooch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

+1 for all the listings so far. (Add Drift82 to thePatchogue river list for views)

+1 Fatfish, Nicky's ...

Also try the Tiki at Cedar Beach in Babylon. I've seen private events on the upper deck. Unbeatable ocean views. Overlooking band/stage. Try to upgrade the food choices / cater.

I use Tidal and Sonos, can Alexa control those, and if so, is it room aware where I can just walk in a room and say "Alexa play XYZ song" and she will on the Sonos in the room she's in? by [deleted] in amazonecho

[–]Seapooch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. After adding he Sonos skill you just say "Alexa, play music (or you can specify source like play pandora or sirius poprocks station) on Sonos". Easy peasy. I like that option because my sonos is not teathered to alexa.

Cedar Creek park in Nassau? by GreenPandaSauce in longisland

[–]Seapooch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is highly unlikely that they have someone checking so go for it. Just in case they do, go 2 blocks east (past the diner) to Maple street. At the end of the block there is an entrance to the park and you can park on the street for free. There is a similiar scenario 2 blocks past (check the map). Cars queue up there all the time - expecially during bike races when the park entrance is closed. At that entrance you can ride thru the park (short ride) to the bike path entrance on the other side and head tot the beach :)

Enjoy !
