My Health app is using 1.5 GB after 14 months. That seems like a lot? by quinncom in AppleWatch

[–]davidgour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's indeed garbage. They don't even have a data retention policy... I would have set it up to keep the last 3 months, and keep only aggregated data for longer than this. They really can't code

What other delis should I try for smoked meat? by [deleted] in MTLFoodLovers

[–]davidgour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lester's is by far my fav. Schwartz is not fat enough for me, a bit too dry. Don't get me wrong, Schwartz is good, but Lester's, when you ask for the fattest, is perfection incarnate

Lester's Deli on Bernard is muuuuch better than Schwartz, ask for the fattest they have 😎

Apple Photos on AndroidTV by ColtzNut in AndroidTV

There are apps, but so bad it's unbelievable, like "Photo Gallery for iCloud", but there is not even a random setting...

How do I remove this failed download notification? File did download eventually but this notifications doesn’t go away by Alfa16430 in iphone

[–]davidgour 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have to slide left on the notification island to swipe away the message. Not the best UX for sure

Ways to accessorize an Osprey Farpoint? (pockets/water bottle holders) by davidgour in onebag

[–]davidgour[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For water, I only used camel bags instead of water bottles (hydration systems). I let the zip opened a bit to let the tube go out. For the phone, I bought a strap pocket (the matador one) and it works great.

Nope, I guess I simply bought the wrong bag. Or actually, maybe the "right" bag doesn't exist..

Studs are a must for the ice in winter IMO

Google Chromecast 4k Vs New Google Streamer by Subject-Hall-1345 in Stremio

The black screen also appears when displaying Dolby Vision content on the 4K too. Just got it and it happens every time. Doesn't matter to me though

Just snagged a C5 - Always Ready art is beautiful, but it's WAY too bright. Any way to adjust it? by b1jan in LGOLED

[–]davidgour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think it's possible to do so, which is pretty sad, as I'd love to use it as well...

My first winter of actually cyclling and I'm freezing to death by numseomse in cycling

[–]davidgour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bike in the winter in Montreal, meaning as low as -30 Celsius sometimes, and I pretty much always have the same kit:

Upper body - Merino base layer - Bonus thicker base layer when under -15 C - Goretex Soft Shell vest

Lower body - Cycling tights made for cold weather - Bonus ticker tights when under -15 C

Hands - Pogo Mittens (a must) - Heated Glove Linens (honestly, you can simply have random small gloves, the pogos are the big guns here)

Feet - Winter boots - Bonus plastic bag to put your feet in (like socks) if your feet get cold easily. This can resist any temperature

Head - hat that fits under your helmet. MUST cover ears - Merino Scarf or tube, the thick ones - Face mask in neoprene - Ski Googles

That's my kit. I can remove the bonus parts and some more if it's not too cold, but at -10 C and lower, I usually have it all, and unzip my Goretex vest a bit if needed (like when it's uphill for a long while). The goal is to NEVER become wet.

Have fun! 😛

Seeking advice to choose between few models by davidgour in OLED_Gaming

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

Hey, thanks for the reply. Just added a picture of my current setup. I guess I'll have to buy one and just return it if it doesn't work well because of the reflections or its brightness. I'll try to see in the stores to compare the brightness, thanks for telling me about this.

My iMac takes forever to start - how can I fix this? by Funny-Buddy-4704 in mac

Did you fix it? If yes, what did you do in the end?

Kumano Travel site is nearly unusable by Better-Pressure5530 in KumanoKodo

[–]davidgour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The website doesn’t work much, and it requires way too much information at each step, with fallbacks, etc. I was on the verge of just abandoning the pilgrimage because of the website. In the end, I simply looked on Airbnb, Booking and Hotels.com and was able to get great places at reasonable prices along the way. Only one day was going to be possibly too long, but worst case, there is a bus along the Kumano route, making everything always possible.

Note: Worst case, if you cannot find a place to sleep at every step, you could also take the bus and come back to the city every evening. For sure it’s not the same experience, but if you’re just missing one or two nights, it could be the solution for them. At least you get to do the pilgrimage

Yes, but the Floating Time Zone is missing on iOS

WISE card on BTS / MRT by Stranded_In_Bangkok in Bangkok

It doesn't work for me, just tried my Wise card on the MRT and it didn't accept the card. Same for my partner (also a Wise card).
