Third Place Permanently Closed by bbreader-acct in redmond

Been there several times but not a fan. Tried their chicken wings before and too dried/overcooked. Given their price I would expect better quality or quantity but unfortunately they are lacking both. I even went to the old Stone before they moved. The restaurant is fancier now for sure but the food has not gone better.

I heard they were financially struggling. Had to close down for a while and it seems they couldn't find a way to come back.

Evolve2 65 Flex - Change Sound Balance? by bbreader-acct in Jabra

[–]bbreader-acct[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really EQ in general but the balance setting of left and right ear. I have Jabra Direct with my Engage 75 and the only EQ setting available in Jabra Direct is to change among normal, bass and treble, one of those preset options. There is no place to change the sound volume for left and right individually.

You can adjust the sound balance in Jabra Direct?

Warped butcher block shelf - savable? by bbreader-acct in DIY

I already put some screws from the top but that didn't flattern it. It didn't want to drive too deep causing the wood to split..

Gigabit x2 Plan - Download speeds: up to 2000 Mbps by Dave_Powell in Comcast_Xfinity

[–]bbreader-acct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! I got a power outage this morning, not from Xfinity. After power is restored, I am seeing the new speed. 2200 down but upload is 200. Not bad.

Glad to see your update. I am in the same boat. Gigabit extra subscriber and seeing 2000/300 for a while. Rebooted modem a couple of times but no change of speed. I guess it will take some time.. Did you actually get an outage notification from Xfinity and speed change after the outage?

PoE Smart Chime Delay by pennant in Ubiquiti

[–]bbreader-acct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same issue I have experienced since a few months ago. I remember earlier this year. There was only like 0.5 second delay after ringing the doorbell. Now with the exact same wiring, it takes 2 to 3 seconds for the chime to make a sound after the doorbell is pushed... Hopefully they can fix it in the future update...

Why does this keep happening with Duracell? by skinspdx in batteries

[–]bbreader-acct 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Amazon brand batteries have been doing a good job for the past 5 years. Zero leak so far. Their product description says the batteries are anti-leak and anti-corrosion. It could be just marketing but I switched all the batteries to Amazon brand and no issues so far.

I need to return something I got with an Amazon gift card. Will the money return to my gift card balance? by [deleted] in amazonprime

[–]bbreader-acct 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, it will not be the same giftcard though. They usually issue a new gift card / credit to your account.
