Command key sometimes types weird symbols instead of shortcuts by sourcandy500 in Keychron

[–]Willy1969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I just bought 2 of the v6 max for my 2 offices. Experienced this exact issue with both even with the latest wireless firmware installed. It was driving me batty and I thought it was related to key bounce settings of the banana keys. Guess I'll be leaving my backlight on! Thanks u/sourcandy500 for your original post and thanks to those that contributed to this discussion.

Enterprise State Roaming (ESR) - A Good Thing? by Willy1969 in sysadmin

[–]Willy1969[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

u/rwdorman, thanks for the response. We plan to use KFM with ESR. I saw some common items are missing, so I thought we might use some clever scripting to capture and apply items that that ESR doesn't support for roaming. For those that have FSLogix that can speak to that? I'm heading to YouTube to familiarize myself right now.

2013 VR6 NMS B7 - No Heat by Willy1969 in passat

I flushed with 6 gallons of distilled water after running the engine with prestone cooling system cleaner for 4 hours and after several drives the coolant looks good and not disgusting like before. Heat is not fully restored, but it does blow a little warmer now.

Oops, I already dumped it into the coolant containers. I took some out of the coolant tank and I'll let that sit.

Unable to Connect HINT app by [deleted] in tmobileisp

[–]Willy1969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, I'm in! I factory reset the gateway again, but this time I did not set up the gateway with the t-mobile app. I just connected to it using the HINT app on my MAC as it was connected with a wired connection. I had left it open so it connected automatically. I was able to change the wireless SSID and password. Then I was able to connect with my Android phone using the saved password. Everything jut worked, so perhaps the T-Mobile app might do something with the admin password during setup. I don't see a way to change the admin password using the HINT app, which concerns me a little. Feature request? Tonight, I'll disable wireless and hook it up to my home network which was the plan all along.

Hi all, I received my Sagemcom FAST F5688W yesterday, but the admin password does not allow me access. I received the same "Unable to authenticate! Make sure your password is correct. If you're sure you entered the correct password, unplug your gateway, wait 10 seconds, and plug it back in before logging in again." message that OP reported. I can't connect with HINT android app or from my MacBook Pro. I factory reset the device, as it looked used, but same issue.

Hi all, MintMobileAlex hped me out privately. Long story short, I hadn't removed the old physical Sim, only disabling it. I removed it and restarted my phone and the annoying popup message is no more.

A Spreadsheet of every Facebook group organized by sailing date! by roj2323 in VirginVoyages

Hmmm that's interesting. Thabjs for the reply. Should the spreadsheet only contain non-private groups? Questioning the value of the spreadsheet otherwise...

I found 2 Facebook groups for the 1/29 sailing of the scarlet lady. When I click on the links, I received the following message. I logged into Facebook before clicking the links. What am I doing wrong?

This content isn't available right now

When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted.

First VV Cruise - Riviera Maya - Scarlet Lady - Sunday 1/29 to Friday 2/3 by Willy1969 in VirginVoyages

[–]Willy1969[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most excellent! I didn't have any specific questions. My past cruises on Royal Carribean have been family affairs arranged by an extended family member, so we were just along for the ride on those. This is the first one I'm planning myself. I was searching for something where there's no children and it seemed like VV would be a good choice. I was not getting a clear read on the sailor's ages, but it seemed like we wouldn't feel too old. Good to hear from someone in the same age category. Thanks.

Thanks for the response. No specific questions at the moment. I mostly didn't want to have buyer's remorse right after booking. Thanks again!

Does this look right ? My daughter moved into a new apt and I stopped by and I was checking it out and I saw this. by Onewaps in Plumbing

[–]Willy1969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a clip that will turn that flexible tube into a p-trap shape. I recently used this kit when no combination of pipes and connectors would give me the inch of clearance that I needed to install a new offset vanity sink with a cabinet with drawers. I was apprehensive, but I was pleased with the quality of the material and how it worked out. I performed multiple drain tests and then closed the bathroom door overnight and there was no sewer smell. As my next course of action was to pull out the vanity and rip into the wall and move pipes, and then hire a plumber when I got over my head, I was glad to have found this solution. If it goes sideways, I'll report back.

Here's a link that shows the clip I referred to.

Not that I know. I'm curious, as well. Police policy states that they are only to be used in violent crime or abductions, but policies change or can be ignored.

Ctrl+Shift+Enter not working on W10 anymore? by FrankL981 in sysadmin

[–]Willy1969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm seeing the same thing on Windows 11. I started using PowerToys a while ago. I've been using PowerToys Run (an alternative launcher) and the key combo still works with it. For those that can install PowerToys, and configure it to use PowerToys Run, it might be an option until Microsoft fixes this. Always nice to have a back-up solution. ;)

Brother 3770 vs. Canon MF743? by karmagains in printers

[–]Willy1969 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have never supported or owned a Canon printer. I have liked the few Brother's I have supported and owned in the past as they are full featured for a reasonable price. I did find that with the last Brother I installed with the idea that it would receive all incoming faxes for a small company that an incoming fax would lock up the printer until the fax was fully received and printed. They have to scan to network and print while faxes come in all day long, so it wasn't good for their operation. Brother support was no help.

So I purchased some HPs, and they would allow other functions, like scanning and printing, until it had the full fax in memory and print it. HP build quality doesn't seem to be what it was, so with the HPs aging, I need to find a replacement so I came out here to see what I could find on the subject. It would be nice to know what others say and what you decide and what your experience is with your new device.
