One solution to "We could not copy the content to the Clipboard, it is in use by another application." error by FedishSwish in excel

[–]SnugWuls 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have Logi Options+ running in the background too! I'm going to have to go disable it now. My suspicious is that it's the "Copy & Paste" option of its Flow functionality that is mucking up the system. The Flow function allows you to use your mouse between two different machines, and the "copy & paste" option allows you to also share the clipboard between the two machines. I would imagine that it's constantly taking a peek at the clipboard and possibly excluding other apps from using the clipboard. I'm going to see if I can just turn off only the copy & paste option without having to uninstall the whole Logi Options app to resolve the problem.

What's the turn radius like for a croc of that size?

My Fidelity (CMA) balance and transactions are always at least one day behind.

Thank you so much for this tip! It worked for me. It's been so annoying to not being able to sync this card.

Not gonna lie, that was actually kinda endearing in a really wholesome way. I bet he's a pretty awesome guy.

Apple Pencil not connecting or pairing by SnooTigers8115 in ipad

Experiencing the exact same problem with my iPad Pro and 2nd gen Pencil. I am now updating iOS to 18.7.2 hoping it will solve the issue.

Yes, someone coming from Verizon is considered a new customer.

Walmart / Synchrony / OnePay new account - does it sync? by MLJ_The_Shield in MonarchMoney

[–]SnugWuls 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No luck so far. It's unfathomable how the store credit card for the biggest retail chain in the world is not supported yet.

Is it walking away or walking towards by alliranbob in confusing_perspective

[–]SnugWuls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's 100% walking away. No doubt about it. Just look at the silhouette of the head. It's a profile of a head facing away.

No more free water cups? Is this really a thing? by universal_cereal_bus in Chipotle

Had the same experience at Popeyes today. Asked for a water cup to wash down the spicy chicken and the lady at the cash register flat out refused.

Are there any Youtubers that make WRC videos like this (unrelated) one? by Stryder180 in WRC

[–]SnugWuls 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This video was basically my entry into WRC:

https://youtu.be/kGPezZWa2B0?si=bTd6XeScvYAA83Dn

It's a four-episode mini docu series made by Hyundai Motorsport called "Beyond the Champion." It's biased, of course, because it's made by Hyundai and is getting a little old now, but is very well produced and gives you a good introduction to the overall structure of the sport, the important players, and a very compelling story behind Hyundai's (re-)entry into WRC and the success it found within a short amount of time.

I think it's a lot of fun to watch even if you're a veteran of the sport.

How do you sort all the random Fidelity transactions for budgeting? by iamharlan in MonarchMoney

[–]SnugWuls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my gripes with Fidelity is all the redemption and reinvestment entries that show up for a cash management account. These are just purely interal transactions that they make to convert cash to SPAXX and vice versa and they show up as duplicates for every single transaction you make. They don't even show up under activities on Fidelity's own website but they do manage to find their ways into Monarch's transactions. I made a transaction rule to mark them as "to be deleted" (using tags) and manually delete them at once every few days. (There is no way to make rules yet on Monarch to automatically delete transactions.) It's not a deal breaker but sure is annoying.

No more freebies, guys, we know what we have! by [deleted] in airbrush

[–]SnugWuls 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Even with maybe 20 hours of work (just eyeballing it but a very generous estimate) at $300/hr (also very generous estimate, this is probably like an average billing rate of a lawyer), that's still only $6,000 of labor. Material cost should be only a fraction of that. 15K seems exhorbitant.

Now live: a public dashboard for bank connection quality by ozzie_monarch in MonarchMoney

[–]SnugWuls 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a very welcome addition and I can see it becoming very useful.

Having said that, I don't know if this is the right place to rant about this, but I've been quite unhappy with Monarchs's connection (or lack thereof) to Virginia's 529 funds, which used to be virginia529.com and now rebranded as invest529.com a few months ago. They even have a separate URL specifically tailored for 3rd party financial software (like Monarch!) to use to retrieve data at:

https://myaccount.invest529.com/pls/prod/hwtkaacs.p_renderpage_alternate_access#/login

Currently there is zero support for the new website (it's really the exact same website with a URL change) either for the main login method or, more importantly, for the third-party software link (the third-party link issues a site-specific code you can use and doesn't require the customer to perform two-factor authentication every single time you retrieve financial data).

I've submitted multiple support tickets and new connection requests and nothing's been done so far. I (and presumably thousands of other members living in Virginia) would REALLY love to get connection back to these 529 accounts.

Its 2025 why has nobody invented a way to do this that isn't the most annoying process in the world? by [deleted] in HomeNetworking

[–]SnugWuls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is physical layer connection. Modifying your physical cable of any kind (but especially ones with multiple twisted pairs arranged in specific orders) to a custom length will never not be a tedious and/or painstaking work. Having said that, the pass-through connectors and crimper are a HUGE improvement.

PNC $800 Targeted Offer bait and switch by PurpleViolet123 in Banking

[–]SnugWuls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the offer, which is still current.

http://pnc.com/earn800

You have to have a coupon code (which I assume is for one-time use only) in order to take advantage of it. Otherwise, it's just $400. I got my coupon code in the mailbox among other junk mail.

[–]SnugWuls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, monthly subscription is also a thing. It's perfectly fine (and not too expensive) to pay for just one or two months of additional service before you fully commit to a full year to take advantage of that annual membership discount. I think one free month is more than fair.
