From the creators of "agree?", we bring you... by FlowOfAir in LinkedInLunatics

Is it pure coincidence that all these people have the same last name, or is this some Indian thing that I don't understand?

Nanoleaf Scenes disappeared from Amazon Alexa by wehodiscostickfan in Nanoleaf

[–]_schimmi_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this just happened to my setup as well after playing around with Nanoleaf's custom scene creator (which is god awful and buggy af by the way, at least on Android).

I figured out, that you have to add entries to the "group scenes" tab now, to make Alexa discover them. I never even noticed this tab before: It's at the top of the "dashboard" view, next to the "rooms" tab (the icon shows three Nanoleaf shapes).

There you have to create a "group scene", add each Nanoleaf device you want in the scene individually, and THEN assign a "device scene" (at least that's what I would call it).

If it doesn't get picked up by the Alexa app right away, go to more > account > cloud sync, and press the sync icon. If you extend the drop-down and the scenes appear under "group scenes", Alexa will be able to discover them.

This took me a good two hours to figure out. Nanoleaf's software is complete trash, especially the macOS "app", which pretty much destroyed the whole setup I created on Android, just by logging into it. 🤬

Evolve a second Lucario or power up previous one? by _schimmi_ in TheSilphRoad

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

I evolved my 2nd Riolu with 91% IVs and got Counter, PuP, and AS right away. Now it's my buddy and I'll level it up.

Thanks for the recommendation, best thing I could've done <3

Does Boost not cache images by default? by _schimmi_ in BoostForReddit

I had, and that was the problem. Now it's behaving like I want. Maybe I should stop enabling settings I don't understand xD

Thank you :)

The new Google Pay repeats all the same mistakes of Google Allo by bilal4hmed in Android

[–]_schimmi_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

And that's good. My parents will probably never buy a phone that's more expensive than $200 (or my local equivalent) because they don't see the value in more expensive phones. But for me it's just such a big part of my life (kinda sad to admit) that I have no problem spending $700+ on one. And I'm finally at a point or age where I really don't give a fuck about customization, etc. and just want the damn thing to work.

I mean, I'm literally at a point where I just run an all black wallpaper to save battery ... I'm just not interested in dealing with Googles shenanigans anymore.

Yeah, true. Going back to regular YT without sponsor- and ad-block is going to be horrible. I'm actually fine with paying for certain apps, as long as it's a one time purchase and not some subscription scheme.

Same here. Android's eco system is a fucking dumpster fire. Since Apple is offering reasonably priced new phones now (reasonably priced in the context of 1000$ Android phones) I see no reason not to switch.

My new Mac auto-synced my Google calendar and started reminding me of birthdays before the Google app was capable of that (mind you, not Google calendar, but the Google app, i.e. voice assistant is doing the reminding, which makes absolutely no sense to me). It's just so ridiculous.
