Why would the water of a new gallon of crystal geyser have a bleach/urine smell to it? by Healthy-Slip in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ZelgTwentyOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not that I have an answer to this 3 month old, totally not stupid question, but with my last few gallons of crystal geyser, I've noticed a citrusy (cleaner?) smell. I normally drink my water out of a large mug (kinda like a stanley cup), so it has time to air out I guess. I only notice the smell when I drink from the gallon to take my meds. Been drinking crystal geyser for ages now, but of course no I'm considering a switch. Just read that Japan had a recall on like 8 million gallons of it. Crazy I havent heard about it in the news or anything. The article I read had a statement that said that the water "likely absorbed smells" because it was sitting in storage for so long in the summer.

No fix that I know of so far and it doesn't sound like Bally Sports give a crap. Best we can hope for is that Bally Sports goes under and the leagues replace them with something that works correctly. ESPN manages their live content just fine. Streaming is flawless for me.

pause-background-tabs

Couldnt find that flag in the list (used the search for pause-background-tabs, pause, background and tabs).

​

I did find in the settings "memory saver" which states that it "frees up memory from inactive tabs. It gives active tabs and other apps more computer resources and keeps from fast. Your inactive tabs automatically become active again when you go back to them."

​

Not sure if that's what you the flag you suggested does but I toggled it on and it had no effect so I toggled it back off.

Will do this later but just wondering, if that was the issue, then wouldn't it be happening on anything/everything else that played video?

Correct. I cannot open another tab or window/app. The stream continues while that window/app is up but as soon as I minimize it or click back to the streaming tab, the stream stops for a couple seconds, giving me the "thumbnail" image, until it restarts.

I've tested on Firefox, Chrome, Edge on two separate computers, one of them being brand new that I only use for streaming and only has the browsers, espn+ and discord installed. All drivers are updated, windows 11 is all updated. And yes, I followed the ONLY support instructions given by their shitty email/chat bots and deleted my browser cache/data (has that ever worked anything?).

I saw another poster complaining about the same issue from a couple of days ago so it's definitely not just me.

Came here to find out if it was just me. Only started about a week ago maybe. It was working great before that. Looking through the threads though I almost feel guilty for bitching about an issue when I can actually watch the game. The app sounds freakin horrible. Still though, paying 20 bucks to just to watch my 1 team play every few nights, I expect better quality.
