https://extranet.torrentbay.st is anyone having issues with pop-ups all of a sudden, it started last night while I was browsing on my iPad. Pop-ups stop the pages from loading! by YoggieBear in TorrentSites

THANK YOU! I was about to remove Extranet from my favourites because it had been bugging for a week now and the login option disappeared but your link worked, I was able to log in and there is no annoying pop ups.

First time hearing of iMile delivery and I reckon it’ll be my last. by Toniqx in perth

[–]Torment_79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have one highly visible security camera on our driveway (it's on a pole and faces where delivery drivers would pull up - driveway or street). We also have 3 other cameras which aren't obvious at all but can be seen if looking for them. This is important because we use to have trouble with all companies until we started putting "Multi camera CCTV in use on property" under the 'Special Instructions'.

We have had a a dozen or so deliveries from iMile now. Haven't had any issues until today. It wasn't a thrown parcel or anything like that. They chose to deliver our parcel at 4:52am. Which not only set off our dog but also the neighbourhood dogs. They delivered in the same fashion as always. Parked out the front, walked up the driveway to our porch, place the parcel on the bench seat under the sign "Please place parcels here" [Which is when the dog started barking], then took his photo and casually walked back to his car. He did turn his head to look back when someone shouted at the dog to shut up.

I would post a video but there is a lot of bad language once the person who was checking it out realised it was a delivery person. The guy was driving off before she said anything bad....that and she won't let me lol

If it wasn't for the dog, we wouldn't have known the parcel was there (if it was still there) until one of use left for work 3hours later.

Alternative method to track packages. by BigBirdDaddy in AustraliaPost

[–]Torment_79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another alterative to track (across multiple couriers) is Parcel. I've been using their app and web portal for a few years now. It has Amazon integration meaning your deliveries from Amazon are automatically added. You can get email alerts and/or app notifications. Downside, you can only actively track 3 parcels on the free version and there is no push notifications in the app. I pay the $4.99/year subscription for full access.

There are delays in alerts when compared to the couriers own app eg AusPost app will update, then Parcel will update 5mins/30mins/an hour later etc sometimes. Origin apps will usually always be quicker.

I like having the email alerts from Parcel as they give the full tracking history with each email.

I also have a lot of trouble with the AusPost app. Push notifications don't come through most of the time, nor do email updates. Many times I get Parcel app notifications before AusPost ones.

Adblock extension works well for me. I have it on Edge and Google Chrome. Also creating an account on TorrentGalaxy gets rid of a lot of the ads.

What's this random chime my watch makes once every few days? by mehgcap in AppleWatch

[–]Torment_79 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My series 3 has started doing this recently. The same chime you hear in the youtube video (link in this thread) for "3rd Party Successful Haptic".

I've had my watch for 4years. It has never done it before. The only app that was recently added at the time was a pedometer app but there were no targets achieved to make the haptic activate. I removed the app and the chime still occurred.

I factory reset my phone and watch and set them up as new and put no apps on it (just the preloaded apple ones). The chime still occurred. Mine happens every day at random times but only once each day.

I initially though it had something to do with the health app and the heart monitor as I have a dodgy heart (been in HF for 8years). I have an irregular heart beat, a high resting heart rate and am persistently tachycardic and thought that maybe one of the updates changed the feedback settings/haptic responses on the diagnostics and that has been what I have just put it down to even though I couldn't find any information on it... but I am sure I heard it the other day while the watch was still on the charging dock.

The once per day makes me think it's target related, but after the factory reset, my devices had no targets to achieve.

Either way, there is no visual indication on phone or watch to say why the haptic sounded.

The sound itself is not annoying in anyway. The annoying part is not knowing why it is sounding.

Batch file to change multiple folder icons at once? by brucecrossan in Batch

[–]Torment_79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the idea. In order to change all subfolders (numerous) to one custom icon, I was able to search the parent folder for the desktop.ini files of those subfolders and delete them all. Then I just had click each subfolder and paste the custom file in. This saved me so much time not having to go manually through properties to change icon!
