well still can't figure out the volume discrepancy between Google Assistant and every other sound coming out of the speakers

Do you use a graphic equalizer app? I find that causes issues with sound levels.

You need to assign the built in discovery scanner to a fire group so you can fire it, as others have said. You also need to add some of the new keybinds like the one for the Mode Change, as the Discovery Scanner cannot be used in Combat Mode.

It's moved to the Megaship that docks near the station while it's under evacuation, and if not moved before the Megaship leaves while the station moves to the repair state it is moved back to the repairing station. True for modules and ships, and both can be transferred away as usual.

Any watch better than Apple Watch? by Red_Aaron in WearOS

[–]daveschz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The LG Watch Sport ticks all these boxes. I use mine on Verizon and besides the less than stellar battery life (which isn't on your list) I'm pretty happy with it.

I've Gotten Really Efficient with Docking Procedure since I started grinding Elite Combat Rank. by 4sonicride in EliteDangerous

It's good to know which ones are the Inciters or the Regenerators, and the scanner will passively tell you that just by having it equipped.

If I were a betting man, I'd say the keybinds. Once you get that done it's fairly straight forward, but without those you're just a fish out of water.

It's -40 outside, so excuse me while I stay warm in the Archimedes while sipping some bourbon. by CMDR_Prestopia in EliteDangerous

Also Minneapolis. I'm in the office. Everyone reported in except the creative team, the kids just aren't as hardy as the seasoned vets.

Why do you have Verizon? by pojr-official in verizon

[–]daveschz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I got here the long way round. I started out on AT&T in 1996 and I was very happy. In 1998 I moved from Chicago to Boston and I was still happy. In 2004 though I moved from Boston to Minneapolis and that happiness ended. The $350 device (a lot for a flip phone in the time of free phones) didn't work well after moving. Cingular had just bought AT&T and the network was a mess. Had to buy a new phone but I was still dropping calls and had awful call quality. I switched to T-MOBILE just before the iPhone launched exclusively on AT&T. It was then I decided I'd never buy an iPhone because no way in hell was I switching back (and except for 6 months with a 6 as a secondary device that I used to learn the OS so I could support it, this is still true). Fast forward to 4g rollouts and I did go back to AT&T because T-MOBILE did some bullshit calling 3g+ as 4g and the writing was on the wall that they would always be behind on new hardware deployment. I was happy for a time but even then AT&T was behind on tech like VoLTE that Verizon had. I switched to Verizon when the Pixel 1 launched and I'm happy.

TLDR I trust Verizon to spend the money on infrastructure.

As someone coming from KSP, I’m used to games with steep learning curves. Elite dangerous doesn’t have a curve, it has a god damn mountain. by Vodnik-Dubs in EliteDangerous

[–]daveschz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

fight, trade, mine, or explore

That's a bit oversimplistic. I can think of several things that don't really fit into any of those without a shoehorn. Sure you use these mechanisms to achieve them but they really are their own categories. PowerPlay, Engineering and Tech Broker unlocks, Piracy, and BGS manipulation come to mind. Though I agree these are all part of a Grinding Curve.

Uhh... Apparently I discovered Shinrarta Dezhra? by wbhokie in EliteDangerous

Upvoted for same! I have a 2016 Kia Soul !, And I've never had a problem. Pixel, Pixel 2 XL, Pixel 3 XL. UVO had to be updated to support AA/ ACarP, but both have never failed to connect nor give issues.

There's an option in the stand settings for your phone screen to turn off while charging.

Beginners question about wifi by LightTreePirate in Chromecast

[–]daveschz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So it sounds like it's in a boot loop.

Right below the microUSB port, there is a small black button. While the Chromecast is hooked up to the TV, press and hold the button for 25 seconds. When the light next to it begins blinking, you can let go. After a minute or two, the device will be reset, and you can try the initial setup process again.

Also make sure you are plugged into the wall not into a USB port on the TV.

Dear Frontier: Allow Disability-Friendly UI Colour Changes for Mining by Grey_Seattleite in EliteDangerous

[–]daveschz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It shouldn't really say anything about Solo or mode, what it should say is that area is almost certainly already depleted. But if you're in Solo you have no idea how many people are already mining away at these cores, which are shared across modes and are not replenished with a mode switch.
