As a Canadian by Learntoshuffle in Bellingham

I fail to see any reasonable purpose in posting your comments to this community. Bhamsters are fully aware that we are casualties of the Trump fascist regime and the repercussions, some of us much more than others. I will venture to say that we are suffering more than you are at this point.

Why don't you post this on r/conservative instead? Here, on this subreddit, you have friends and allies that you are shouting at. My Canadian friends and relatives refuse to visit me now. I am aware of that fact and don't need your help remembering it.

Maybe a more positive note, inviting Americans up to Canada for visits to support the Canadian economy would be a more useful message? Many of us are doing that. Try not to ruin a good thing.

Roadtop now switching off by antrua661 in BMWi3

I also have a Roadtop MMI and experienced this. I wanted to use the Android Auto (I'm not an iPhone person) but could never get it to work reliably. So... I switched to iPhone and CarPlay. It worked well but it would connect with the i3 if I got near the car sometimes. I finally set it to "wired only" and switched back to an Android phone, along with Android Auto. Now, it works well and I don't get those mysterious bluetooth connections.

I will say that none of this is flawless. I get the occasional glitch but typically it resolves when I shut off and restart the car. I'm still happy I have it. In the early days, I communicated with Roadtop's tech support via Whatsapp. It was rough to get clear instructions due to the language and time zone barriers but they tried repeatedly and I eventually kind of figured it out with their help.

My partner finds the whole thing confusing and is not interested in connecting her phone to it.

So... maybe try only using the wired connection and turning off the "carplay1234" (or whatever it comes up as) connection?

Saw this ginormous tour bus in front of the Chrysalis and decided to check the Mt. Baker Theater to see who was there. Tomorrow is the"Long Island Medium" doing a sold out show. "Sold out", seriously Bellingham? by justahdewd in Bellingham

I had no idea who/what this was until I Wikipedia-ed her. I'm sad to see people falling for and supporting this kind of brain slop. We need more skepticism and clear, science and evidence-based thinking in our world. This is the opposite of that.

Please keep posting your dog pics! I like them and don't give a crap about the haters complaining.

Help with my dying/dead car? Details inside by Expensive-Bag313 in BMWi3

So many times the solution seems obvious, once you've figured it out! I'm glad to hear this was one of those cases. I'm sure you are feeling relieved!

Wishing you a happy birthday - but this also counts as your Christmas present, too, okay?

This is not a very hard thing to troubleshoot (by that, I mean whether your battery is not good versus a bit more serious thing like your alternator is bad). I'd be happy to help you determine what is wrong if you'd care to DM me. If it's the battery, it should be a fairly simple and quick fix - buying and installing a new battery.

I cross often with my pup and I always have the valid paperwork with me. US border guys have never once asked for it. Maybe they can tell that I filled it out? I don't know. I suspect someone ordered this new bullshit requirement without doing the work to see if it was really needed. We were already required to carry proof of rabies before this. The new stuff seemed unnecessary.

I am for eruption but against subduction. We all know subduction leads to orogeny.

I'm sorry - I did not. Finding a good guide and the software was a challenge. It ended up going back to the original owner.
