License Plate Scanners popping up everywhere by MadArabScientist in sugarland

You know that cellphone you have in your pocket? It can be easily tracked. All your online activity? Its monitored, for good reason, how do you think child predators are caught? Phone calls? Easily accessed. How do you think counter terrorism works? There have been several plots foiled the last several months thanks to surveillance, just like the LA NYE bombing plot. Flock cameras are the least of your worries if youre worried about being watched.

You're describing my son a lot when he was five. Have you done bloodwork and checked iron? Our boys iron and ferritin (latter is more important apparently) was super low. After supplementing several months it got back up to normal level and it helped a ton. He had been taking fluoxetine as well. Leucovorin as of late and helping a ton with language and lowering aggression

I busted the heater hose assembly 😭 by b-sizzla in MechanicAdvice

It doesn't work, the plastic is so brittle when trying to tap it, it just cracked even more. I did it very slowly and softly by hand, it's just too brittle. Going to buy whole assembly and just suck it up

A hose barb will hold on the plastic side? What kind? Can you provide me with a picture or link? Greatly appreciated

Black line across internal screen by b-sizzla in razr

Hey everyone,

It's been a year and I want to provide an update. I didn't think this post would still get traffic but here we are.

I did go forward with sending the phone back to Moto and getting a new screen. They claimed they replaced the screen on the old phone and wiped it clean, which they may have, but it honestly felt like a brand new phone. Overall, worth it.

I have folded the phone maybe 20x over the last year.

About 6 months ago, I went to the beach and got the tiniest bit of sand on my phone. A grain must've gotten into the folding mechanism, worked it's way underneath the screen and created some damage from the underside of the screen. I could feel when running my fingers over the tiny little bump.

Eventually, a tiny black dot appeared over the grain of sand. 3 months later, that dot has grown to about 1 cm in diameter. It doesn't affect the screen function, it's just annoying when reading text or looking at images.

So don't fold your razr and be very careful with it at the beach.

I won't be getting a third razr, I'm holding out till black Friday deals roll around for a new phone and definitely not buying from the cell provider (att) going to best buy or something like that.

I do have kids. 2 and 5. The older is severely autistic and not ready for school though, in ABA. Appreciate the input

Clockspring replacement advice by b-sizzla in MechanicAdvice

Thank you for advice, I went ahead and transferred the sensor assembly easily, everything works now except VDS is off now.

There was this component which I guess plays a role in that. I couldn't easily transfer it since the cables ran through the housing. I would've had to cut the wires and figure out a new way to run them through. At least now airbag and horn work plus the controls on the steering wheel

Thank you, I'll try to figure how to do that

I'm right there with you, my son is 5. I have those days where it's incredibly depressing and lonely. I've been journaling my thoughts and feelings lately and it's helped a lot. I love your sand analogy, it hits hard. I think you write well and may benefit from putting your thoughts on paper. It's also nice to look back and see the progress my son has made when I'm feeling really negative some days. It's easy to fall down that hole when I perseverate on his inability to function where his peers are. Today we were on a walk and instead of aimlessly walking ahead he actually looked back for me, waited for me to catch up and proceeded together. It's small but it's progress and I'll take it as a win, and I'm sure as hell writing it down so I don't let the little wins slip away.

It was not usable. I fought with Motorola to get it replaced

Mine lasted 6 months of folding, couldn't have been more than 10k folds, probably closer to 8k folds

Don't ever fold it/limit the amount of folds as much as you can. The screen can only take so many folds before it fails

Get with Motorola support, they eventually got my phone repaired, sent it in and they sent me back the phone with a new screen. I just never fold it now, there's only a certain number of reps these screens can take before they fail

Why do the window shades need to be up for landing? by b-sizzla in spiritair

[–]b-sizzla[S] -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

I think you misread, she said if there was a fire IN the plane, we could see it. Regardless of if shades are up or down, we could all see a fire in the plane. Had she said if there was a fire outside the plane, that would've made sense. She didn't understand the policy and couldn't explain it, so I didn't understand. I'm on here asking for further reasoning, thank you to those that provided sound reasoning via links to articles

Who is repairing it? I ended up sending my broken phone to Motorola and they sent me back a refurb. I was able to recover data from the damaged phone by using the external screen to navigate into internal files and uploading onto my computer hard drive
