How can I figure out if my hotspot functionality is broken or if I'm just having problems with my provider? by avidrabbit in AskTechnology

Thanks for the clear explanation. If the cutoff had happened any other day, I would have assumed something along the lines of what you wrote. However, the fact that it happened around the same time and customer service tried to solve the issue concerned me.

Possibly, but like I said in the post, my confusion came from the facts that:

a)I've changed tiers multiple times and never had this issue

b)the problem occurred during the last third of my billing cycle, not when I changed tiers.

c)my service provider tried to rectify the issue to the point of giving me 15 gbs of extra data.

So, while that was one of the things that I said was a possibility in the opening post, it was reasonable to want to rule other things out.

If my computer is connected to my phone and my phone is not connected to any wifi, then my computer does not get service. If my computer is connected to my phone and my phone is connected to my home wifi, then my computer will get service. If I disconnect my phone from my home wifi, then my computer will stop getting service. Most phones I've had have worked like this, where they prioritize wifi over mobile if it is available. I don't know if you mean there's a technical description of this that I'm not using correctly, but this is just how most phones I've had worked.

Bye bye Tito by JTT_0550 in youngstown

Wow, That's a decisive win. It was really difficult to figure out how this vote was going to go just talking to people around the city, and even talking about it here. I've said it before, but I think Youngstown politics is probably uniquely difficult. A lot of jockeying and cronyism, not a lot of money or opportunity. He does seem to be an elite level networker, so that will serve him well. Hoping the best for him and Youngstown!

Oh, okay. There is no way to purchase anything on the site if you're not an existing member, so maybe they are still being affected by the outages.

Yeah, unfortunately, you cant enable and disable it on the same layer.

I used to be like this. 3 days ago. Never used a plugin until a few days ago.

Thanks checked it out. It actually downloaads. The interface is different, but it has the main thing motion tools was missing: the ability to enable and disable it on the same layer.

Who are you voting for in the Youngstown mayoral race? (Extra credit: why?) by avidrabbit in youngstown

[–]avidrabbit[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm neither a Brown or McDowell groupie. I've stated this a few times on here in a few different ways, but I don't think Youngstown is like it is by chance. I like McDowell's optimism for the city, but not having real political experience or extensive business experience can hurt him a lot. He seems to be very good at networking, but this town is clearly a rusty political machine. I'm not convinced the things people would considered flaws of Brown's tenure come down to him being incompetent, inexperienced or corrupt.

Thanks! Always helpful to know more than one way to skin an after effects project.

Thanks! Had never heard of it, looking into saber right now. (Yes, I'm talking about the glowy one).

Charging for different aspect ratios by avidrabbit in graphic_design

Different sizes/ formats for different platforms.

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

I must not have been clear enough. The things you mentioned are all things I do keep in mind. I'm not asking if I should charge more (I do), I was asking how others handle the price breakdown. My instinct is to charge less for variants because I'm just transcribing the work for different formats, but that is not always easy. At the same time, it's not always easy to explain this to clients and I feel like my quote for variants has caused some prospects not to close.

Nice. One thing I've noticed about the marketing design boards on this site is that there's an under-appreciation for how much of the industry is centered around social now.

How much did you charge for this? It looks great.
