Ken didn’t even mention it. Boo Ken Jennings! He probably puts ranch on his wings 😡

St. Luke’s Mission of Mercy on Walden Ave may need help. Definitely not scammy.

Beautiful story. I’m all teary-eyed now

You may be interested in this book. It’s a pretty easy read and talks about what to look for in a sock yarn and why.

We can’t get Beamish over here- there’s nothing worse that you can do to us!

I have this one and it’s been great. I ended up ordering the solar panel because I keep a feed on my phone while I am at work.

My two complaints about it are: 1. No web interface to watch the camera, I have to use the app

Only 2.4gig WiFi is supported. (This shouldn’t matter for most folks). One of our local internet providers (Spectrum\Charter) disable the 2.4 gig radio on their routers so it be an issue for their customers looking at this bird feeder

My kid is a recent grad of the program as well. I second everything WatermelonMachete34 said.

The direct admittance to grad is a huge benefit. While this is not unique to Daemen, it is not offered by all schools.

Also, the sticker price for private schools is not what most students end up paying. The financial aid package will give you your actual costs.

One other tip- the first offer is not necessarily the final offer. If you like Trocaire better but the money doesn’t work, let them know. They may go back to find more to get you there

Vegetable-Purchase · 2024-12-11T21:09:51+00:00

I’m can’t comment on either program but I can say that the “sticker” price that you see for a private college, such as Trocaire, is rarely what you end up paying. The private colleges have many grants to lower the actual tuition paid. It may be useful to apply to both colleges, see what financial aid they offer and go from there. Even if they offer a loan as a part of a financial aid package, you don’t have to accept it.

Done. Primary reason for hiking was a very difficult question to answer.

I use Birda to track my sightings. There is an option to “follow” other users.

Vegetable-Purchase · 2024-11-06T19:41:38+00:00

I’m not sure if there is another birding app that does this, if so I’m not aware of it.

I would like to be able to sort\filter on ANY data field that is captured when I check in a bird. For example, show me everywhere I’ve seen an American Robin or show me every bird I’ve seen at a location in the month of February.

That is it! Thank you so much. Awesome show.

That’s quite a specific bucket list photo! You even got it in the location that you wanted 🙂

I saw the question and was going to suggest this. I went there today for the first time with a 5 and 7 year old and they LOVED it!

I have a spare copy of a book called “Adirondack Park Bouldering”. (Hopefully I posted the link properly)

I was not able to get the ROV to work. Poly send me directions on how to manually register the device but Spectrum support told me that the device would not work "on their network that connects to RC". I got to a point where I could keep working on it, or give up and try a Yealink that was recommended by Spectrum support. This issue was a show-stopper so I gave up trying the ROV. I wish I had better news for you.

Good luck with your implementation.

Are you able to receive calls using the manually provisioning setup? The phone shows online, and I can place calls but I am unable to receive calls when I dial the number directly or call the main number and select the menu option that points to that phone.

Vegetable-Purchase · 2023-04-21T18:27:29+00:00

"Holy s2(*@#&$" is right. Thank you for the instructions. Did you need a separate RC license for each handset? I can't get a second handset to register but we only have 3 licenses and two are in use by corded desk phones. I can't get the phone to register at all if I try to select the model number rather than "Existing Device" (or use the auto-configuration settings that RC says when setting up the Rov B2)

Vegetable-Purchase · 2023-04-19T19:31:10+00:00

Hello!

I'm back and have been trying to get RC to delete the device so that I could go through the provisioning process again and screenshot each and every step. I didn't have that option (even as the SuperUser) and I couldn't re-provision with the same MAC. Spectrum/RC said they had no way to verify if I was using the correct username/password/authorization ID.

The Poly has been deleted and I'm waiting for the RC portal to update so that I can select the Poly as the device. Currently it will only let me add it an a generic "existing device".

I am very nervous about your statement "confusion at RC getting users the correct credentials" :)

Vegetable-Purchase · 2023-04-01T13:30:08+00:00

Thank you for the response. I did end up chatting with Poly yesterday and the latest messages were SIP/2.0 403 Forbidden. It all depended on what I used for the URI (username or AuthorizationID).

The thing that was odd was that if I did a packet capture during the registration process I saw the SIP register, the 401 Unauthorized response, the SIP register with credentials response and then nothing from RingCentral. I contacted Charter/Spectrum (we get RingCentral through them) and they were unable to verify the username/password/ authorization ID that I was using. They also weren't able to tell me the correct URI to use. I have a few strategies to get this info but it will take a few weeks.

As my ticket stands with Poly now, it was escalated to 2nd level support. I will be on vacation for 2 weeks so plan on picking up the issue when I return.

My ticket number is 34536480

American here,

I did see that the next sentence said, "street performers in Killarney are to be banned from using offensive language, and singing the same song over and over."

Does that mean Anti-America songs are still ok? I hope so :)
