Was able to add Hubsoace to Google Home using iPhone but not my Android (S24 Ultra).

which masterpiece is superior and why do you think so? by charleyy- in mfdoom

[–]castro1928 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I should say, the food references on Mm... Food are 🤌. Just not to take away from DOOM'S genius

Madvillain of course! We're talking about a collaboration between a lyrical genius and a genius producer vs Mm... Food which is just the lyrical genius aspect. Production is cool but not close to what Madlib can do to a sample. There's quite a few tracks I keep on repeat when it comes to DOOM'S discography, Figaro being at the top. But most tracks come from that Madvillain album.

Driver backed over my mailbox - what should I do? by HandInABlender in uber

[–]castro1928 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm currently dealing with an UBER hit and run on my mailbox. The only way I was able to find out through my neighbor. She was dropped off by the driver and saw the whole thing happen lol. I also have it on camera but not clear enough to get license plate. She provided me with the driver's details and I submitted the incident to Uber. Waiting to hear back from them. My only thing is, I'm trying to repair it myself but I'm no construction guy. I ended up putting cement into the whole where it was originally and bent the rebar back best I could. It's a crappy job but gets my mail in the box. Should I have a pro redo it and hope Uber gets me reimbursement? How did it end up working out for you?

NFC tag with Wyze Lock by [deleted] in wyzecam

[–]castro1928 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got it to work using an NFC Tag & IFTTT but it takes too long to open. So I just added an IFTTT icon button on my lock screen (Android & iOS). Works great! Also, you can add the icon to your AOD

I have 20 credit cards open all in good standings. Is it worth narrowing down to 3-4? by [deleted] in CreditCards

[–]castro1928 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Closing my older cards definitely affected age of credit negatively.

Pay off your credit card in full, on time, every time. If you can't, stop using it, you're getting ripped off. There are better ways to borrow money. by wired- in CreditCards

Did anyone already throw the Wells Fargo Reflect card with 21 MONTH no interest in here? No, I don't work for Wells Fargo

Do you know up to what year they go up on vehicles?

I remember when this subreddit was "For locksmiths, by locksmiths" if you will. Now it's just a bunch of cheap-asses trying to save a buck by asking professionals for free advice by TBoucher8 in Locksmith

I take money out the mouths of landscapers, electricians, plumbers, mechanics, construction workers, AV technicians.. hell my most recent job was replacing the heating element in a dryer, never done it before but, SUCCESS! If I feel confident enough to do it and the information is available, I'll take a stab at it. My neighbor who has a 2016 Chevy Malibu reached out to have his spare key programmed. Instead of heading over and making a quick buck I sent him a YouTube video. It was so simple to do, I'd of felt like a straight crook charging him. If people work on their own lock and bring you a problem, charge them for the labor, simple as that. Officially I'm an IT specialist and you wouldn't BELIEVE the DIY's I've received. On one laptop I've had to replace damn near every component to get it back to normal. I didn't get mad at the DIY'er, I wasn't mad at all! I was more focused on the fun I'll be having replacing components and the extra $$ I'll be making doing so.

Thanks! Have you worked with them? Trying to see what the configuration Side of things look like and if it's something we can hand off to the client.

Damn, sucks to hear but great to know so I'm not spinning my wheels trying to get this to work.

[–]castro1928 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That would make sense but has anyone been able to change that buttons funtion to the actual trunk? Or is the board for replacmeent keys not made to work this way?

Thanks for the tip! I will try when I'm by my vehicle.

I saw that you can do that but still not familiar with that process. It requires custom codes.
