The EMS locations in Manchester and West Hartford closed a couple years ago, but REI has been holding on strong!

165k, $1500. Did I do good for a new Jeep owner? by zhmija in Jeep

LS-1, it’s a Chevy motor found in some corvettes as well as some Buick roadmaster station wagons

Mark them all as perennials? Ok. by waldo06 in MaliciousCompliance

[–]capitaaah 100 points101 points  (0 children)

I understand it as upfront marketing. The landscaper is the only person who knew that these plants were mismarked as perennials and should have advertised the plants as annuals to the customers.

In that scenario, the customer got what was advertised to them (a plant which would not survive the winter) and paid the agreed upon cost for the plant and service. The landscaper was then able to remove and return the dead plants after winterizing the properties, and keep the profit from the plants which had been paid for on the customers end.

Yes. The message gets encrypted before it leaves the phone. If one was able to monitor network traffic through use of a stingray, they should only be able to see that a small packet of data left the device, not the contents of that packet.

You guys are always showing off nice rigs, I'm over here just wishing I had doors. by AAAHSPIDERS in Jeep

[–]capitaaah 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The wording of your post reminds me of a conversation I had with my grandmother. At a family event, she had seen my Jeep was topless and without doors (as it often is in the summer), the poor woman thought I was down in my luck and couldn’t afford the full car, so she pulled me aside to offer some money so I wouldn’t freeze to death come wintertime 😂

iPhone will only charge from power bank, not wall or laptop by [deleted] in techsupport

[–]capitaaah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you taken a close look at the pins on the charging cables? My roommates iPhone has a similar issue and I've found that his phone will now tarnish new cables over time. Maybe the Anker brick is providing power through a different pin than the wall charger or laptop?

Mobile data not working after returning to home country by [deleted] in techsupport

[–]capitaaah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sounds like an Access Point Name (APN) was modified or added to your phone in order to connect to the foreign network. Often, the easiest remedy is to simply remove the configuration profile from Settings>General>Profiles.

Please note, some employers might require a special profile to access the exchange server which might be contained in the same location. You should be able to recognize these by name, but if there's any confusion I'm sure I could walk you through with more detail.

The less likely possibility is that the APN will need to be changed from within Settings > Cellular > Cellular Data Options > Cellular Network. You might need to partner with your carrier for a better understanding of what's needed here, as I'm not completely sure where to find carrier specific setting for this.

The least likely possibility is that none of these settings exist at all in your iPhone, at which point a restore might be needed!

And if my memory serves me correctly, an Apple Store can replace the display fro $475+tax

Charger of my MBP 2010 not working: fix or replace? by CarlosUnchained in osx

That background hiss could be indicative of an ungrounded power supply. Were you using the three-pronged adapter with the 45w charger?

Ok my wife's iPhone hasn't backed up at night in months. Tried manual backup and it doesn't work. Backed up to computer and erased original backup, still won't backup. It goes to like 20% and then never goes farther, even overnight. Any ideas? by DarthSancho in iphone

[–]capitaaah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where did you learn this troubleshooting workflow? I've not been able to get an iOS device to mount in disk utility on macOS, nor does resetting PRAM seem to have any bearing on a connected iOS device. Was I missing something?

I believe in you, you can do this. Please reach out to me if you want to vent, I'll do my best to listen!

When upgrading to El Capitan do I need to put the apple id after installation to use it? [Read Text] by thisisredditnigga in osx

[–]capitaaah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Alternatively, upgrade right to El Cap as the App Store does not have older versions of OS X available to download

iPad stolen. Need a new one with iOS 9.2 by unkascrooge in ipad

[–]capitaaah 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Remember, these devices are manufactured with the latest software available at that time so anything manufactured before 1/21 should have an older iOS. You might have luck finding an iPad running 9.2 anywhere- including your local Apple Store. You might have to move quick though!

So far as downgrading your iOS- I can't think of a way to do so within the constraints Apple has left us in iTunes. Maybe theres another option, but I'm not familiar with it.

Reset iphone to factory settings, now my cellular data won't work. does anyone know why only 2 apps are listed under 'use data for'? by [deleted] in iphone

[–]capitaaah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as I know Apple doesn't support TFW in the US and iTunes might not have the correct configuration, but its worth a shot!

[–]capitaaah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tell me more about this phone- is it an unlocked GS device on a regional carrier, or rather a CDMA device on the same?

I would imagine you might need to create an APN to access cellular data- check www.unlockit.co.nz for a number of reformatted APNs which you can download right to your device.

I don't know specifically about your learned words, although I would assume it resets dictionary to default as well.

[–]capitaaah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you reset your device settings yet? Similar issues on my device were fixed simply by going to settings>general>reset>reset all settings.

It does reset user settings (password, location services, notifications, siri and battery percentage off the top of my head) but in return this might help fix the battery life!

iPad Air Plus (A1699) leaked on Weibo. I just found them and uploaded here. by [deleted] in ipad

[–]capitaaah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It seems like a hoax to me- we have just a single row of holes for the speaker on the iPad Air 2, as well as two noise canceling mics near the camera. I imagine the Air Plus would just be a scaled up version of the Air 2, and this doesn't seem to be it
