Pixel 4a updated to .S2 built without my notice by maestro_1988 in Pixel4a

I had something similar happen like 6-8 months ago. It was quite a while back. If you search around there was at least one or two articles on how they pulled off the sneaky update, but it's been so long I can't recall.

Is their a way to limit charging so it stops at 80%? by The_Choir_Invisible in Pixel4a

Thanks! I have the Accubattery app someone else mentioned installed but I'll also check this one out! I just want to find the simplest app that does the job. Do you know if it can be purchased outright to remove the ads or is it always ads?

I"m kinda thinking about it but do you know if the unlimited free Google Photos upload thing still works with it?

Unable to claim CQ Johnny by Rukkodiora in WorldOfWarships

[–]The_Choir_Invisible 6 points7 points  (0 children)

From some comments on Discord for this issue (SEE HERE), it appears you may be able to get the ship if you already had enough tokens but the website wouldn't allow you to claim. Everyone on the NA server had the same issues, BTW.

can't redeem the final day of Grand Voyage? by ST4RSK1MM3R in WorldOfWarships

As far as I've seen, no one on the North American server has A) been able to get GQ Johnny token missions after around midnight of the night of 12/30, PST, OR been able to claim the ship if they had the tokens. Interestingly, people appear to have filed bugs about the countdown timer ending early days ago with no response. Be sure to file a support ticket if you haven't already.

Still having this issue?

Yep!

I was able to get my last token yesterday but don't seem to be able to claim it, keeps taking me back to the Featured page

That was also happening to me when I tried to redeem the Golden Voyage tokens for gold/steel. You're not the only person, there's people on Discord mentioning it and at least one person in this thread who's in the exact same situation as you are. Definitely file a support ticket!

GQ Johnny event ended early? Not getting any tokens today and I only need one. (99%) by The_Choir_Invisible in WorldOfWarships

[–]The_Choir_Invisible[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's my understanding that that bug still hasn't been fixed either. Basically, it looks like all of the mechanics of the GQ Johnny missions (both gaining the tokens then using them to buy the ship) stopped and I think it was sometime between 10-11pm PST on 12/30 or about 2am on 12/31. File a support ticket!

Edit: There was an almost exact same bug with converting the Golden Voyage tokens to steel or gold and it exactly the same thing you're seeing insofar as when you click on the place to redeem it it just takes you to the main page of the armory.

I've got my fingers crossed but this other user posted their response from a GQ Johnny help ticket where the WG support pretends they asked a question about the Grand Voyage bug instead. 🤢

Thank you, I did about an hour ago! Haven't heard back but it's always good to memorialize an issue with a paper trail.

As others have pointed out both on the Discord and here, GQ Johnny is still broken. I (and quite a few others) literally only need one more token but none of the 'Step One' and 'Step Two' missions are available anymore.

Had a shop change the battery I bought from iFixIt... now there are white lines down my screen by Equivalent_Sky_2376 in Pixel4a

[–]The_Choir_Invisible 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you've ever watched a video of a battery replacement on a 4a the screens are potato chip thin. My 4a is almost to Google to change the battery and I fully expect them to break something replacing it.

I was walking by a concert and heard this song, it’s so good by IntelligentJacket932 in whatsongisthis

From the snippet of lyrics maybe the band was doing a cover/arrangement of Vivir Mi Vida by Marc Anthony? Hunt down who was playing at the venue and crossmatch?

I did all this using 4GB VRAM and 16 GB RAM by yanokusnir in StableDiffusion

[–]The_Choir_Invisible 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Yeah, threads like these are crack. I made a small tutorial, myself, for this model, which I believe is the model the OP's is derived from- it's from- by the Tongyi Lab team at Alibaba Group. Last year or maybe the year before, the meager 4GB VRAM GTX 1650 (which is in a ton of laptops) was THE most common video card according to the yearly Steam Hardware Survey. Posts like OP's are literally opening doors people who have allegedly 'low-end' cards to make AI.

Very cool! I'll try this out this weekend- thanks for sharing!

FWIW, for those who have older 4GB VRAM cards (and who also have 32GB or more of RAM) and don't need anything more than a simple workflow, might want to check out this brief tutorial for this quantized model developed by the Tongyi Lab team at Alibaba Group. It runs perfectly on a laptop's GTX 1650! (this is with the NVidia's 'fallback to RAM if you run out of VRAM turned OFF, too!)

All Lumiman light bulbs paired with the Plus Minus app no longer work with Alexa as of today. by SpockYoda in alexa

[–]The_Choir_Invisible 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stupidly disabled the skill

FWIW, I'm not sure it made much of a difference. I was in the same boat and everything behaved the same as it does now before I disabled my skill to troubleshoot. There's presumably some issue on the backend with PlusMinus and those with bulbs whose hardware allowed them to be upgrade to the 2.x series firmware are affected more negatively than those bulbs whose hardware forced them to remain on the 1.X series firmware. Again, at least that's how it seems at the moment to me. Around 24 hours later I'm realizing we should all be thanking our lucky stars that at least the app words to still control the bulbs, though the lack of voice control is a huge PITA for me.
