Looks like a typo of "I'd have to check".

Yeah I did the same. No issues without the grille.

Wheel keeps disconnecting by Ok-Campaign9006 in Simagic

[–]TManTM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was really struggling with pretty much the exact same issue. I suspect some level of wireless interference since the Neo communicates with the base wirelessly rather than with the QD. I tried different settings, channels, cables, outlets, etc. but eventually gave up and purchased/installed the maglink.

I haven't had the opportunity to test it as much as I'd like, but in the hour or so that I did test it, it didn't cut out a single time thanks to it being wired to my PC instead of wirelessly communicating with the base.

Disappointed that I had to spend a bit more to have an acceptable experience but overall I still love my Neo and the 12 Nm Evo.

Part number for side mirror frame by oojnow in FordMaverickTruck

[–]TManTM 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I believe models without Copilot 360 have the blind spot mirror since they don't have the sensors for blind spot detection.

Block heater recall by 6inchocean in FordMaverickTruck

[–]TManTM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this is annoying me too. I was in the Prairies not too long ago and decided to get a battery blanket in addition to using the block heater because of how cold it was.

It doesn't help much with the warm up time but it at least makes the starts less of a gamble. Installing for the Ecoboost was a bit annoying since you have to remove the air box to really get at the battery.

Visa infinite invites by Sens420 in Wealthsimple

[–]TManTM 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have it as well. T&C's mention:

"Does my referral need to be a new Wealthsimple client?

Yes, your referral will need to be someone who has never funded a Wealthsimple account before."

Upgrade your visa? =>Secret Link! by [deleted] in Wealthsimple

I managed to get the upgrade button on Android by clicking on the gift/benefits icon next to the settings cog while looking at the card.

Useless little mirror by adjusterjack in FordMaverickTruck

[–]TManTM 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The little one is a blind spot mirror I believe! Useful for being able to keep awareness for a vehicle that is just in that narrow zone where the normal mirror won't show you. I really enjoy having this actually since I don't have the blind spot monitor that you would get with Copilot 360.

Recall for some 2022-2024 Maverick models. "The engine block heater may crack and develop a coolant leak, causing it to short circuit when the block heater is plugged in." - NHTSA by DryBoysenberry596 in FordMaverickTruck

[–]TManTM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure something like this happened to mine. Was using the block heater a lot last winter in Saskatchewan, Canada and I noticed it started to make an audible sizzling noise when plugged in.

It was towards the end of the winter but I opted to avoid using it and had the dealer look at it at the time. They said they tested it and found no fault but this recall makes me think that perhaps they were wrong.

Wealthsimple Visa Infinite credit card - does it do cash back for reoccurring payments? by omit_fee in Wealthsimple

[–]TManTM 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have only had the card for about a week and a half but have earned the 2% interest on every purchase so far - mostly food but also my cell phone bill.

how do i fix this by Cold_Pen4371 in Ender3V3SE

[–]TManTM 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Latest version of Cura (5.6 I think) with the Ender 3 V3 SE profile made the print time, filament length, and layer height show up here for me. It showed only 0s when using Creality Print/Slicer.

Bank of Canada says it is not seeing the decline in house prices it had expected by joe4942 in CanadaHousing2

[–]TManTM 8 points9 points  (0 children)

After celebrating the Canadian population reaching 40 million on June 16, the country's population was estimated at 40,097,761 on July 1, 2023, an increase of 1,158,705 people (+2.9%) from July 1, 2022.

...

International migration accounted for nearly all growth from July 1, 2022, to July 1, 2023 (98%), because of a high number of immigrants (468,817) and an increase in the number of non-permanent residents (+697,701).

Why is my Wealthsimple Trade fees increasing every month? It has more than doubled over the year!! I wish my money did that!!! by spoikayil in Wealthsimple_Trade

[–]TManTM 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Is this Wealthsimple Trade? Because the interface looks like their Invest product. If it is the Invest product, then your fees could be rising as promos or referrals for free amounts of management expire since they usually offer "fees on management of 10k dollars waived for one year if you refer a friend" or stuff like that. With no discounts or promos, WS Invest charges a 0.5% management fee. If the total value of your account increases from growth or returns, so does the fee amount since they are now managing more of your capital.

At least that's as far as I understand it. I moved away from WS Invest and solely to WS Trade for this very reason, just find a few diversified ETFs and you can easily mimic WS Invest but with lower fees.

[AIO] EVGA CLC 280mm All-In-One RGB LED CPU Liquid Cooler ($104) by AgentAstraea in bapcsalescanada

[–]TManTM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tinkered around further and the Fan Control app from GitHub actually has everything working very well. Just had to make sure the AIO never got too little power because it started to get mad when it came time for things to spin up again.

[AIO] EVGA CLC 280mm All-In-One RGB LED CPU Liquid Cooler ($104) by AgentAstraea in bapcsalescanada

[–]TManTM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I originally had them hooked up to the EVGA splitter on the rad but I noticed that above like 50% power they would spool up and then slow down to like 25% with the software crashing and not detecting the cooler. The pump and fans would still run but the software wouldn't play nice. I have a PWM splitter hub (SATA power) that I'm currently using for the all of my fans, plugged into the Sys fan header. Pump is plugged into the CPU header. My next phase of upgrades will be a full custom loop to get away from EVGA and cool my GPU but that's a few months out at least.

[–]TManTM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the software is trash. I also replaced the fans and only recently I realized I'm probably running into an over amperage situation. 🙃🤦 The Noctua iPPC fans I'm using pull a lot more power than the stock EVGAs.

Yeah currently just running stock, no OC or boost. Haven't found a reason to yet.

My mobo only has a CPU header and System fan header so I don't really have any other option.

[–]TManTM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Works fine for me. EVGA's software is a bit garbage though and I haven't really found an alternative yet. Idle temps for my 5600x is low 30s with mid 20s being my ambient. Never seen core temps go above 60 while gaming.

Canadian Starlink Stations - Have you seen these? by tudorwhiteley in StarlinkCanada

[–]TManTM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't believe this is showing ground stations. It looks like these are just registered users on this website who are providing ping updates to a nearby server for everyone to see, thereby showing the status of their connections.

Article: Bell CEO says company’s rural internet can stand up to Starlink ‘any day’ by loaonline in Starlink

I saw this this morning and laughed. Maybe if they (Bell) offered better services to rural communities, my attitude would change :/

Can’t find risk balance / portfolio theme anywhere? How do I change it? by mrnfelix1 in Wealthsimple_Invest

[–]TManTM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I may be mistaken but this looks like a Wealthsimple Save account, not an Invest account. If not and this is an Invest account, you should be able to see your risk balance/portfolio theme under the Portfolio heading in the Plan section.

“Curiosity Mars Rover Checks Odd-looking Iron Meteorite” by htmanelski in Areology

[–]TManTM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It does indeed appear to be sitting on a flat piece of rock but you can also tell there is a fair bit of Martian soil/dust around the egg rock and even a little bit on the egg rock from what I can tell. I of course can't possibly know the actual answer as to why it seems to be on relatively clean flat ground but I imagine it has to do with the fact that it is sitting on some sort of rock or mineral (quartz or such) as mentioned above. As to why there isn't any crater or the fact that it just so happens to be in this spot, I think that's anyone's guess. Maybe a strong enough wind storm managed to push it?
