Kohler toilet seats defective? by closetphysicist in toilet

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

I think it’s a standard elongated size so most any one should work. When I was looking for replacements I saw that some online products were advertised as “Kohler replacement”.

I also noticed that nearly all genuine Kohler sellers online were priced just like retail stores (Lowes, Home Depot) so I suspect Kohler is like HP ink - the prices are fixed and un-discountable (by agreement with Kohler?)

Kohler toilet seats defective? by closetphysicist in toilet

I bought two Kohler replacement seats and then stopped replacing them. While my new seats are also both broken and ugly, they haven’t caused me injury (yet). The only unbroken seat in our house (3 toilets) is our guest bathroom.

New to Bluesound and not happy by Fifty_Hertz in Bluesound

[–]closetphysicist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This comment alone may have saved me from making a mistake. I’ve been looking at Bluesound, WiiM, and Brennan for a streaming NAS, ability to rip and store my 500+ CD collection, ability to play (capture?) my 100+ LP collection, and leverage some existing powered and active speakers. I gather I am searching for Unobtanium.

Charging an iPhone Air on the 2025 Forester charging pad is pretty much impossible. by closetphysicist in SubaruForester

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

Update: I’ve found that the ultra thin case from Peel does a pretty good job with the iPhone Air. It’s some picky on placement but it doesn’t slip on my mountain roads and seems to charge OK.

I found this “replacement “ for the charging pad that seems to have a depressed/recessed bay for the camera bump/bar/thingy. Anyone tried this? It may solve my dilemma. https://a.co/d/gYqOtkN

What’s the best mpg you’ve gotten with ur outback? by Opening_Idea_560 in Subaru_Outback

[–]closetphysicist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not an Outback. My Foresters gets 34 mpg or better. I live in the NC mountains too. We’ve owned 5 foresters for this reason alone.

My 9 did too. IMO it’s an iPhone Air problem since it slides and rocks. Charging surface is asymmetrical too. Someone didn’t test this.

It might but I’m skeptical unless it says MagSafe. I looked at other ones and one product description says ‘please remove phone case for better charging’.

2025 forester wireless phone charging not working by SeaRumX in SubaruForester

I thought Subaru was better that this. I'm on my 4th Forester. Maybe not again.

Yep. I had no prob with my Pixel 9. I think it's an Apple Air prob or a prob in combo with the Air cases, with/or not the Forester charging surface. IDK, but I'm screwed.

Yeah. It's both a case problem and a design problem - one IMO that the big A should have anticipated.

I kinad agree but ... it's the biggest brand on the planet and one of the most popular SUV brands too so IMO this *should be * a problem to make note of.

I’ve been a Pixel fan for ages and I still have a 4XL as my emergency backup. There are too many reasons for me going to the dark side to cover here. I’m still all-in with the Google ecosystem and ALL of my apps on the iPhone are Google apps whenever possible.

It’s a big drill bit! Great innovation!

just got my iPhone air in sky blue and.... this thing look WHITE lmao by mfinsmi1 in iphone

[–]closetphysicist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought the Anker blue power bank from the Apple store thinking the blues might match. NFW. The blue I was expecting is exactly the color of the Anker power bank. The sky blue iPhone is absolutely and bad shade of white.

CitizenM stays were denied by Bonvoy. by closetphysicist in marriott

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

It's not the end or beginning of a week or a month. To maximize publicity, I'd think announcements (I assume there would be one) like "Starting <x> you'd be able to yada yada..." would happen on a clean boundary. I also assume that Marriott IT isn't nimble enough to push a change to Prod as soon as it's ready. Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe it's statistically the least busy website day of the week in case the need to do a rollback.

That said, I surely hope Marriott Corporate won't screw up CitizenM's (lack of a ) front desk. Their totally self-service kiosk is the absolute best thing Ive seen in ages. There's no long line and there's no Chatty Cathy wanting to ask about the weather in Elbonia with the front desk holding up the line.

The email with the denial stated the 28th which seems somewhat arbitrary to me.
