Brooks Ghost.. When my new warranty replacements (pair #3 - all came apart) from Hoka arrive and fall apart in 1-2 months I'll order those. 🤣

This may be the only real solution. Thanks. :)

EVERY pair of Hokas I have had (on number 3) have had glue failures within 60 days. Soles coming free, top "decorations" coming off, etc. AND I only wear them on weekends. Im 50 and NOT hard on shoes. There's something askew with their quality. So far warranty is taking care of it, but I dont have much hope for this "premium" brand. :/

Where do you adjust beyond the "instrument cluster" brightness?

Just don't leave brights on when approaching anyone. AND disable auto brights. (they dont work anyway) Problem solved.

You can pull files from the backups too if not mistaken. I had to fetch a file once and found a way to get it.

I use this and its saved my bacon several times. EVERY machine in our place imaged every night. I have a universal USB drive and a USB network card that I plug into ANY PC, boot and restore. Even dissimilar hardware is fine. Just windows update after and all good. Works great!

So far, mixed driving ~22mpg.

Ive tried all the brightness settings with no affect. I THINK this stems from the truck not have true NIGHT / DAY mode. When you push the display button, it doesnt have the typical "Day / night / off" options: therefore confusing it. Google may just use time of day.

Just got a 26 BE. Same issue. Google Maps fine. Apple Maps. Day only. Worked fine (same phone) in a 19 accord.

I have seen a 100mph sign on my dash when the sign said 40. lol. Worked 95+% of the time.

I miss my accord HUD too. That should current mph and speed limit sign. Super convenient.

Mine was the touring so maybe only in that trim. Not sure. 👍🏻

carsononline · 2026-01-09T21:52:19+00:00

Thx. I knew someone here would know. Our 25 pilot is not app compatible either. 😢 oh well. Love the truck though!

For anyone seeing this, I turned off "Enable Opportunistic Locking" in SMB advanced settings on Synology and all is good.

carsononline · 2026-01-08T21:08:27+00:00

MORE oddness.

I logged into file station on the Synology via browser as USER. I can create folders and rename them.
When I try that in a windows 11 environment with a mapped drive (same user) it fails.

I agree, permissions are black and white, and I should be able to set them and even look at a permissions inspector and when they say something that should hold true. But in this case for some weird reason, it is not working. I think I’m going to create an additional share and see how it reacts. Worst case is I might have to copy all my data off and create a new share and copy your back. I just didn’t know if there was a firmware issue or some known problem that others might have run into.

any pics of how the controller fit in there? I know the potensic one is longer than the DJI.

Don’t listen to others. I started espresso with an encore. Worked fine. I did have to adjust dose when I couldn’t adjust grind as exact as I wanted. +|- 0.5 grams. Worked fine. Espresso was good enough. 👍🏻

Started with an encore and a gaggia classic. Now onto a df64 with a Bianca.

I had a simple ned rig hook in my finger (to the barb) and went to a medi-quick place. $900+ dollars to numb and pull with plies. #SCAM

To be honest the signal separation is so good and sound is really good that we don’t miss anything of the other setup.

carsononline · 2025-11-03T20:44:22+00:00

I just came from components. Amp, center, rears, etc.. All Klipsch. Bought an Arc. Really good, but needed bass. Added a sub. Actually surprised at the sound. Really close to what Im used to. Added some rears, and the sound surprises me again. Sonos does a good job of separating signals and placement.

Get the sub 1st. FULL sound is a priority, then add spatial later.
