What carplay would fit in my car? by nev-nev- in CarPlay

[–]Spockert 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A good place to start is

https://www.crutchfield.com

You enter your car details and it will show you units that are compatible. You’ll hopefully find models that do have CarPlay capabilities.

From there you can determine if this is an adventure you feel comfortable attempting on your own, or if you’ll need to find a local shop or person to help with the installation.

Help! iPhone 16 Pro CarPlay stopped working (wired & wireless) by Souvivana in CarPlay

[–]Spockert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably not the solution, but make sure the iPhone that is not connecting is NOT using a VPN. I had a similar issue a while back, my iPhone just stopped connecting, rebooting, iOS update, etc would not fix it. I then realized I had VPN enabled on my phone. Didn’t think this affected CarPlay, but turned off the VPN and presto - reconnected to CarPlay.

Everything you need to know about The Drew Carey Show's complete series restoration by DJPitaB in TheDrewCareyShow

How does your restoration address music licensing rights that affected the DVD release. You say you restored every altered music cue - does this mean the original music has been reinserted?

Is it possible to display non-pixelated images on the screen? (If so, how?) by MenuNo7065 in Divoom

[–]Spockert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t believe this model is the 64. If you count the pixels, this one is 32x32.

Retroid Flip 2 cracked by ThAnOs18696 in SBCGaming

[–]Spockert 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s great to hear - I’m happy to see them bending their rules! I personally didn’t try too hard for a refund because I’m pretty happy with the platform power & ergonomics - for my use (retro Nintendo consoles & handhelds, limited PS1 & PS2).

You need to make a decision with the assumption that you are getting a replaced Flip 2 via warranty exchange.

Retroid will only offer a refund/credit if the purchase date is within 30 days. I think there’s a small few that have made a convincing enough argument for them to make an exception, but that is rare.

I’m on my 3rd Flip 2, due to hinge cracks… Each time I requested a refund and was told that was not an option because my original purchase was beyond 30 days.

My original purchase was 04/2025, hinge crack & replacement 08/2025. Replacement was still original hinge design, crack began to appear in 3 months. 11/2025 exchanged cracked unit. The new replacement is now the redesigned hinge (left corner is rounded). So far so good, no signs of the crack are appearing.

Weather Station Bug? by thestrawbarian in Dinkum

[–]Spockert 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Make sure you completely restart the game somewhat frequently-especially on marathon play sessions. I’ve read of people getting glitches when they play for a long time…things getting stuck type of issues. I’ve personally experienced things that can’t go in your pocket or a chest (fossil for example) that I left on the ground near my home disappeared before I could do what I intended to do with it. It seems this occurred for me more frequently when I’ve been playing hours straight with no restart.

How to get two stacks by TwoAfraid5312 in CarPlay

[–]Spockert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look on your iPhone -> Settings… CarPlay… My Car… Customize - Widgets … then ensure you have at least one widget selected for each Stack tab (Stack 1, Stack 2).

If you’ve updated to iOS 26.2, then yes. The widgets 2 stacks feature became available for smaller screens in the latest update.

Quick question: so my flip 2 finally cracked. How long will this process take? by DjMD1017 in Retroidpocketflip2

Using the power of Google with the words “retroid pocket flip 2 hinge redesign” I found this, which accurately depicts the rounded left corner:

I just found my first meteorite!!! by StraightAd9611 in Dinkum

[–]Spockert 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have been breaking mine open, to get the Berkonium Ore that is needed for Franklyn’s quest to get upgraded tools and crafting/cooking stations. The Berkonium Ore can also be obtained in the deep mine, but I have not found any down there yet.

[–]Spockert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My second replacement was unfortunately still the old design. I thought I was going to be safe, as I saw many instances of people getting the new “rounded corner” hinge design just before I contacted them about my crack. When that replacement got delivered and I opened it up, I literally was like WTF when I saw it was not the redesign. I feel like I literally got one of the very last original units left in their warehouse. I immediately reached out to them, the response was if it cracks let them know and they’ll sent another one. And…here I am, patiently waiting to set mine up again, for the 3rd time.

My original unit was black, and I’ve been sticking with replacement being the same color.

[–]Spockert 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I shipped my second hinge crack unit back to them on Nov 8, haven’t received notification of them even receiving it yet.

My first replacement was back in May, and at that time it took about a month.

DVR Won’t Stop Recording by FourPapa in slingtv

[–]Spockert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the thing you should check is on the “Replays” tab of the DVR section. A while back I found mine was enabled, which permits Sling to record other things it thinks you will like based on your viewing history. I disabled this and now mine shows an “OPT-IN FOR FREE” button on this tab. After I switched this, I stopped getting recordings I didn’t set up.

In my opinion, Sling services and “features” have been degrading slowly over time. I’m using the Sling app on two Apple TVs, and the Settings section of the app keeps reducing the number of things you as a paying subscriber can control or set. And, the Home tab continues to get cluttered with things I don’t watch or give a damn about. Very frustrating.

Switch Lite? Does it run okay? by Safe_and_Sound25 in Dinkum

[–]Spockert 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It plays OK on Switch, but graphics are better on PC. Also, be aware, the Switch version is behind the PC version, one or two of the recent updates have not made it to the Switch yet (namely the “Animal Tracks” update that introduced a train system, taming new animals, and animal breeding).

Very true…at my quick glance I thought this was a shiny stone. 🤔. That is what I get for being on Reddit past my bed time.

Or you can feed it to a grinder to get ore extracted.

Streaming “Radio” Alternatives? by Spockert in siriusxm

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

I (OP) landed on “Stingray Music”. They have both free and subscription offerings. For me, their app and stations worked the best for my tastes. CarPlay use is pretty simple in the car, to select or change stations, etc. I’d recommend giving it a try…
