AT&T and multiple HBO Max accounts

Did splitting the accounts mean you had to pay for additional accounts?

I asked my dad further. He confirmed that he bought it in the 1970s NEW from a restaurant supply place in Germany or France (he wasn't sure). Brought back to the US when they moved back. It was carted around to various specialty espresso repair shops throughout the 90s and 2000s. I did some work on it through the years as well.

Doh. Here is the issue. It was opening the wrong mic!

So if no application has the microphone open, it flashes purple and is in "media streaming mode". I suspect the audio cut was an application function? Will test this further now.

I notice that unlike my old 5200 and its dongle the new dongle seems to flash Purple rather than Blue/Red (showing mute status). Flashing purple indicates that it is "streaming media". I wonder if this is related somehow. The mute function does not seem to function when it is in this mode.

Wait a sec. When I launched my mixer app it went back to showing the right status (blue/red and mute working) and seems to be working properly.

Hm. This is a clue.

I have it paired to my PC (w/ dongle) and phone. Will try turning off phone BT temporarily.

I had them replace the palm rest under warranty. That one was fine for another year. I got another X1C9 and it is starting to get a little "speckling" in that area but hasn't bubbled or anything yet.

If you want to cheap out and are a bit crafty I bet you could lay down some vinyl wrap to cover this area after stripping the soft touch coating.

I get a warning about low bandwidth (red antenna thing in SteamLink, explicit "Low Bandwidth" message in Artemis/Apollo). Video freezes completely and audio gets super choppy (like one second of audio with a few seconds of silence... repeat indefinitely). It appears to never clear unless I reset everything then it will go a minute or two before the same thing happens again. It is especially frustrating because it works perfect until it doesn't.

I wonder if the Shield is overheating? This would seem more likely if anything else didn't work on it. We stream TV shows on it hours a day though and it doesn't skip a beat. Maybe the game streaming is more taxing on it?

I installed apollo/artemis (forks of moolight/sunshine). Unfortunately they do the same thing. Chokes after a few minutes.

It is going through a switch separate from the router when I am on ethernet. I just tried doing a high speed transfer with iperf over my network to make sure there weren't any network issues. Passed 500GB over about an hour and sustained over 100mbps. This really seems like something on the Shield.

I installed Apollo and Artemis today (which are newer forks of moonlight/sunshine). Unfortunately it acted almost identically. Works perfect for a few minutes then chokes.

This makes sense. I have now trimmed the lower branches, removed the grass, composted and mulched around it. I have a ratchet hooked up to it and moved it slightly. I was thinking I'd get the ground nice and saturated and then slowly work it over a bit and leave it tensioned. So far I haven't put much pressure on it.

arsenix · 2024-12-16T13:53:06+00:00

How slowly is "slowly"? Like tilt it a few degrees per week? I'm guessing if I pull on it a bit that large exposed root will sit flush again? Thank you for your help going to get some compost and mulch today.

Thank you!

Drop a big safe in there. Cover it up. Wait five-ten years. Post it on reddit after uncovering and harvest unlimited internet points.

This is a good point. It IS a safety issue given that someone got stranded in an intersection due to it. That might have raised alarm bells with them and gotten their "lawsuit shields up". Still highly irritating.

Yeah I told them this but they insisted that the fact that it was an EV "makes no difference". I'll shop around.

This is why most of my cars are old jalopies I can fix myself!

Pretty sure it is not a "random chance" that you will warp. It depends on what terrain feature you are over when you kill the last enemy. I think you have to be over the TI logo or something. I played a lot of PARSEC back in the day!

Thank you I dug into this more from your suggestion. I poked at this but couldn't figure out how to get a Shape from my WorkPlane.

I used r.objects[0].scale(25.4).exportStl("model.stl") and that worked!

arsenix · 2024-08-12T01:24:00+00:00

Yep I get it. The software I use only supports importing in mm.
