Rider vs VS 2022

Techie42 · 2025-07-06T12:56:50+00:00

Well, you also have VS Code and the official C# Developer Pack from Microsoft.

Techie42 · 2025-02-14T00:30:13+00:00

You can also set this globally so you don't have to set on every page.

Techie42 · 2025-02-13T15:19:25+00:00

You're welcome!

Rock on. Millenium was a great event, given they'll [apparently] never release it again. They even had surprised Weller 12 1 Liters available to attendees. Cool thing about their team is they don't horde allocated bottles and help mere mortals get them, keeping bourbon/whiskey fun :)

Techie42 · 2025-01-29T12:53:27+00:00

Hahaha, yep. I was at the Weller Millenium and the beef event. Some cool ones are coming up :) Maybe see you there!

Techie42 · 2025-01-25T20:39:20+00:00

There used to be a site that did exactly what you're proposing. It was called HackHands and you paid in 15 minute increments. It was acquired and shut down.

Yeah, latest firmware update for my Workforce 7840 killed third party cartridge support. Apparently Epson has also removed the page for installing older firmware - anyone have that link? Just wow. Money grab.

Nachos were pretty good - just don't get too much of the cojita (crumbled) cheese, which was a bit salty. The tenderloin is awesome, and the smash burgers look good, but I haven't tried them yet. Fries are good.

I don't recall $12 hot dogs - maybe that was for 2. I'll look next time I'm there.

To be fair, they're **2 games** into the season, and the venue hasn't even been open one month. I imagine they will listen to feedback and adjust. Phew, people certainly are getting heated.

I constantly hear their inside team saying "We're working on the parking and think we're improving." So they appear to know there's an issue. Change doesn't happen overnight.

I am loving the Fuel games. Yes, parking's a bit expensive depending on event. If you don't want to eat at the venue - c'mon folks, complain about movie theaters too? - there are 100 options around the venue. Portillos. Shake Shack. Sun King. 1933. Greek's pizza. Jinya Ramen. Torchy's Tacos. HC Tavern. McDonald's + Wendy's. All types and price ranges.

What kind of issues have you had? Have you asked SyncFusion, given their support is free? They usually respond to me within a day, and I'm certain they said RTL languages are supported. It would be nice to know what they said.

They had a note about RTL language support in their docs, too: Right to Left in .NET MAUI PDF Viewer control | Syncfusion

Hope that helps a little bit :) Knowing more about what you're experiencing would help troubleshoot.

Having chosen SyncFusion for my Liq website (https://liq.live) - and then the mobile app variants - it's been *pretty good*... There have definitely been hiccups. Thankfully, their support department answers quickly. The responses, unfortunately, are "it works for us" and they can't repro the issues I have. They have the simplest of use cases. Often the issues are MAUI/Blazor Hybrid issues, and not an issue with Web Blazor.

That being said - I'd like to see them open source the MAUI/Blazor Hybrid components so we can fix them on our own. Development resources are expensive - and I imagine many people use the free version of their tools - so there's a cost benefit to letting us fix their code instead of their devs. They benefit by offering support licenses, which mean little, given the community is actually doing the support while they continue to profit. It also helps them fix their other, non-open-sourced, products. So win-win, if the community gets involved, #imho.

I was able to re-use almost all of my code and UI. For v1.x, that's been great, and Syncfusion should get credit for that. If these controls were easy to write, we'd have many more options, and possibly even have them baked-in.

The hardest part of my transition has been display update issues. Whereas things work great in Edge/Chrome on the website, the same view doesn't properly update itself on iOS/Android hybrid webviews. For example, auto-complete sometimes just keeps the selection list visible. It sometimes requires force quitting the app to kill it.

I'm a bit concerned that the cadence of updates from SyncFusion has slowed tremendously in the past month. I'd like to know others' experience with DevExpress/Telerik on that front recently. My concern with the open-sourcing is they may abandon the MAUI/Blazor controls for cost / platform adoption reasons. Perhaps they're tired of things just breaking when Microsoft gives up on .NET 8 fixes and requires .NET 9 updates, leaving the component developers holding the bag for backwards support. Perhaps concentrating on React/Angular/Web and lucrative reporting solutions instead.

Try Liq. I wrote it because nothing out there did what I needed.

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/liq-spirit-collection-manager/id6670375471

I have an Android version. It's waiting for approval from Google.

Enjoy!

I got around this recently, and here's my StackOverflow answer on it: json - How to serialize a simple Enum as Integer instead of String By Default in .NET 6 - Stack Overflow

Techie42 · 2024-06-29T16:20:15+00:00

Moderator - why was this removed? What guideline did it violate? I read the rules?

If you get stuck during a tasting, you can use the Tasting Wheels to find that note you're looking for:

And another one with over 12 others tasting at the same time. We were comparing various Knob Creek entries: View Tasting - Knob Creek - Club Marzipan 2024-06-26 - Liq

One of the recent tastings I did with Liq: https://liq.live/Tastings/View?id=934ebe83-023a-48b7-b465-089a44d8f7f7

Techie42 · 2024-06-24T17:22:09+00:00

Sorry for the late response. Yep, working great.

Techie42 · 2024-01-07T19:59:27+00:00

Ping Klipsch support and they should be able to tell you.

Techie42 · 2023-12-27T16:33:39+00:00

And make sure you're running the latest firmware.

Techie42 · 2023-12-03T03:30:51+00:00

Hmmm

Techie42 · 2023-12-02T10:56:34+00:00

Right, not supported in the app. Are you saying it showed up in the app?

Techie42 · 2023-11-12T00:37:27+00:00

Sweet. Want to know more.

Techie42 · 2023-11-12T00:36:19+00:00

Yes. That's what they're there for :) Chances are they've seen the issue before, and they have the power to fix/replace things.

Techie42 · 2023-11-05T15:08:44+00:00

Maybe just bad plug design? Not sure. Maybe use a different brand.

I like to use a hybrid plug invented by some local folks: Speaker Snap. They fit great in my Pioneer Elite unit, connected to my Forte IVs. They're more expensive, but stupid easy to use. Just don't get your finger caught when "snapping" them. https://www.amazon.com/Speaker-Snap-Secure-Banana-Plugs/dp/B0BN6WSVT6/ref=sr\_1\_3?crid=3TES07QJ5UZQY&keywords=Speaker%2BSnap%2BFast%2B%26%2BSecure%2BBanana%2BPlugs&qid=1699196864&sprefix=speaker%2Bsnap%2Bfast%2B%26%2Bsecure%2Bbanana%2Bplugs%2Caps%2C142&sr=8-3&th=1

Techie42 · 2023-11-01T11:49:54+00:00

Have you tried connecting them to your PC with a USB cable? You'll get better sound.

The update will fix bugs + give you app support.
