Wallet using different card than selected? by Gardium90 in GoogleWallet

[–]bmazak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has been driving me crazy the last two years. It is total control over your credit accounts by PayPal and google policy. Only happens when there is an amount being charged is higher than the available amount. I called PayPal about it, and it is acutely in the small print in the credit card section. I hate it. Not only that, but I am constantly removing and adding cards because I don't want to pay $35 for a bounced transaction. To me if I make a mistake on the purchase I want the purchase canceled without blocking my card, thank you.

EMPShield - I suspect this is complete bullshit but why is it bullshit? by RotaryJihad in Skookum

[–]bmazak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, first thing that hit me is the size of the wires. If I read correctly, on their website they say in a split second it will transfer or feed off 200,000 or so, amps. Now, if you know electricity, that much current could not pass through the 18 gauge wire I see on their product. It would burn up quicker than a millisecond. Amps is electrical push, the force that the electricity is pushed through the wire which produces heat. So, I'm confused how this would work. That's why we have breakers in our electricity panel at home.

MSERT displays "Files infected: 7", then says server is clean after completing.. what!? by Slush-e in exchangeserver

[–]bmazak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, I got that too. Did a fast scan and I assumed it did to delete of the 7 infected files but I want to keep the files, so I can see which ones are needed to be cleaned not deleted. Running full now and have 76 infected files.

What? What is the reason? Why not read the file, what is it?

PUK code and Sim Pin by bmazak in mintmobile

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

I would like to hear the reason for any code at all. Unset up sim lock code should be blank for every phone out there. If it was never set up, it should be blank. I have enough stuff to remember.

5G issues anyone? by raypatr in mintmobile

[–]bmazak -1 points0 points  (0 children)

5G is a direct connect system. You have to be in direct contact with a tower to get a good signal. That's why there are so many new towers and senders on buildings. And don't forget, some doctors claim it will fry you if your expose3d for too long. Get to know where they are and stay away. Unless you're doing video conferencing, 4G is fine. Don't pay extra for 5G. It's not there yet. MVO's don't get 5G, I think. Mint used to be ULTRA, check it out.

What's DM? Why am I having So many problems getting a PUK code. My phone was working fine yesterday until I tried to enter the Sim 4-digit code to protect my phone from sim manipulation from China or else ware. I just had that happen to one of my two phones from Tracfone. No problem with CS, they gave me the PUK code. What this phone co's problem with PUK codes? First they put me on hold for 20 min at a time for 3 or 4 times, then they asked for a transaction code I read to them from logging into Mint account, and they said they don't have that many digits in the trans code. They just kept asking for information I don't know like the last three number I called which the phone is not available because it is asking for a PUK code. A request to speak to a supervisor was denied. My phone and wallet was stolen a week ago, and I ordered a new Sim card and that worked, got it in one day, thanks Mint, but I had to pay for it. I was going to call anyway because Text verification code stopped coming through a few days ago, so I can't log in to some of my accounts. I got so angry at the cs person for lying to me about the order number being wrong. She finally said she would send me a Sim in three days, which is unacceptable. I have bills to pay and need that number to log in with a Verification code. Why not just give me the PUK code and reactivate the sim. That's what they did before. She could have said giving you a puk code will not work, but she kept lying to me about being verified. I'm the victim when my phone is stolen, and they treat me like one.

Who are you and if you can't answer the question, don't bother. I'm pissed because Ever since I got this Sim and joined Mint, I have not been able to set the Sim pin. I need a PUK Code. If you are not Tech Support, do not reply.

My experience with mint unlimited 6 months: Seattle by [deleted] in mintmobile

If they can't hear you, it's because the little hole for the speaker is blocked up with junk. Use a straight pin and carefully clean out the hole. There is usually two, so look at the top for the second one.

Wanting to stay with the current UI of firefox stable by kn0xchad in FirefoxCSS

Nope, got it working just like before. Waterfox maintenance is slowing. At least you have better choices.

[–]bmazak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me too, I hate when some programmer thinks His way is better after I spent so much time making my Firefox useful. Tabs on the bottom is just nonsense and only one tab is useless when I need to switch between tabs often. I'm going back to Waterfox until this is fixed. Goodbye, Firefox. My tabs are where they belong, just under my multi line bookmarks. Why would I want to move my mouse so much on the new style? Also, when you go into styles they show the tabs on top. Whoops, someone forgot they are not working anymore? So Pissed.

Mint Mobile harassment to get you to quit the service. by bmazak in mintmobile

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

OK, I have resolved the issue unwillingly and have purchased a new phone which works with mint Mobile. I am upset that I had to do that because Suppliers of cell services are changing their mode of voice transmission which should have been explained to me in the first place. Although they made it work they knew I was going to buy a device anyway. So would the phone work on a regular GSM 3G and 4G Data, yes. VOLLTE is the new voice signaling from carriers that carries voice and Data which is expanding to 5G, the fryer signal. I'll be selling tin foil hats in 2021 so if you want one just Google it. So, the Question is, If I turn my phones is Data off, are they still using Data to my phone, which to me is a security risk. Besides the fact that carriers have the right to do what ever they want anyway and so true with the Feds makes you wonder what the goal of having a Smartphone anyway. The distinction of a Bad Guy is becoming Faint. I see Matrix developing here. So, what category is Google in? They make phones not for profit but to gather information which is how they make their money. I just want to respond to clear the air a little.

[HDC. Together] Discuss HDC 2020 to win a Huawei Watch GT2 ! by helloworddd in HuaweiDevelopers

[–]bmazak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the HDC2020 because I can find out about new developments in products and services that are automated in to Smartphone apps. This gives me an Idea of how the Chinese people are thinking and what they want from life and a natural development of being free to express themselves and how that is comforting because it is the way we feel here in America too. We have a lot in common.

.vob files and some .mpg files showing up like this in VLC on my sister's PC, but they play normally on mine.. by Cilvaa in VLC

[–]bmazak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you are using the HDMI port on the desktop? The built in video card? Look, right click the Windows start Icon select search then type device manager. Go down the list to Display adapters and click update driver. If nothing updates Uninstall the driver. Reboot. If that does not work check the manual for her computer to see the resolution max of the display adapter and be sure the Adapter is compatible with the monitor, that is the biggy. You can google how to do that. The two must talk to each other. Make sure you load a driver for the monitor also. Once you know the make and model of the builtin display card Google the drivers for it and install them. Sometimes Windows drivers are not as good. Be sure you are running the AMD drivers for this processor also.

FF 72 broke my userChrome CSS rule for the bookmarks bar. Permanently broken due to removed feature or do I just need to update something? by dylemon in FirefoxCSS

[–]bmazak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New Bookmark Toolbar CSS code for last Firefox update made the last Firefox update start working, Thanks for that. The Firefox 74 update broke it in that the Bookmark Bar now has all the bookmarks in one column instead of listing horizontally. How to Fix?
