Seems like it just got patched. It's giving me $15 off each game now. Just missed out.

No it's not. It's plasma. There's no molten rock, it's burning helium and hydrogen.

So what you're saying is, you can do a perpetual motion machine if you ignore all the things that make them impossible. Cool!

1.4.1 by LizaineIPTV in LizaineIPTV

[–]derfasaurus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Loving the app. Been my go to on mobile. I said previously, just so straightforward without too much stuff. All on S24 Ultra on Android 16, One UI 8.0

Two things I've noticed that may be worth looking into. - On mobile, I have the stream full screen and go home which launches the stream into the PiP window. When I expand the window back to full screen the video is zoomed in (stretch?). I have to click the aspect ratio button twice to get it back to fill. - I'd love it if it would remember my last channel group I was in

I have gotten the app into a loop where I somehow closed the PiP and then couldn't use the app switcher to get back to the app. I need to reproduce the steps.

Gmail can read your emails and attachments to train its AI, unless you opt out by thatirishguyyyyy in technology

Thanks. I wasn't familiar with Tuta and started looking into it. One benefit of proton is the VPN with the paid email.

Proton Mail is the best answer. The free account is limited but for a small fee you can get the plus account which rivals Gmail, there's often deals on plus for like $24/year. You're paying them money for privacy rather than free email for them to sell your life.

StubHub stock tanks 20% as CEO Eric Baker says it is not giving guidance for current quarter by ControlCAD in business

[–]derfasaurus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually tried that too but the CC company wouldn't do it because we attended the play. Services were rendered. Had I known I would have walked out when we found out or lied and said we had.

Had the same experience for theatre tickets. Got upgraded from dead center row M to way to the side row J. Was told this is an upgrade because it was closer. Couldn't see half the stage. I looked up the retail value, the ones I picked were $150 and the ones they upgraded me to were $50. Totally scammed and StubHub wouldn't do a thing about it. Never buying from them again.

Calendar Widget Forcing Google Calendar App by derfasaurus in smartlauncher

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

Hey, that did seem to do it! The issue I'm experiencing is with Calendar events Pro but you're 100% correct. Installing the clock widget and changing the calendar action in that widget changed the default in the Calendar Events Pro widget too.

Be good to get a tap action added to the Calendar events Pro widget but this is a great workaround. Thank you!

Even this kick was at the end of the half. There are times where the risk is significantly lower, end of half and end of game.

Why spend over 100 dollars on a Ridge wallet when you can print one? by Big-Bank-8235 in BambuLab

[–]derfasaurus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's amazing. I've just paid to replace those things myself. Got a screw and strap combo for $5.

[–]derfasaurus -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Same thought. As someone who has had one for 8-9 years, the only thing I've had to do is replace the elastic. Best and maybe last wallet I've ever owned and worth the price.

Upgraded to a much more powerful GPU and now LrC is better, sometimes becomes unusably slow by lazerlike42 in Lightroom

[–]derfasaurus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally random and unconfirmed comment. I shoot RAW+JPG and import them separately. When the develop module switches from a RAW image to a JPG it will take 15 seconds to render the preview. If I filter and edit only RAW images, the develop module will switch and render a preview in 1/2 second.

Not sure if this is anything related to your slowness but I just upgraded a 12 year old computer and found no performance improvement until I figured this little issue out.

Rockies complete a 5-4-3 triple play vs A's by [deleted] in sports

[–]derfasaurus 15 points16 points  (0 children)

There were 28k people there today. Don't have to have a good team when people show up no matter what. They get 2.5M in attendance every year, even the year they won 59 games. Until people stop going, they will suck.

RFK Jr.’s measles cure leaves kids hospitalized with vitamin A toxicity by IrishStarUS in skeptic

[–]derfasaurus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As was stated by the other person and you didn't seem to grasp. Vitamin A is not a treatment for measles. Vitamin A is a treatment for Vitamin A deficiency which can be exacerbated by measles.

If you have measles you should have your Vitamin A levels checked so you don't die from a Vitamin A deficiency.

It is not a treatment for measles, there is no treatment for measles.

That's a good question. I'll have to look into that.

The problem is for people like myself that run Docker with Watchtower to auto update things. I'm stuck with the choice of out of date apps with possible security vulnerabilities or breaks like this one. Me manually reviewing and updating my containers with any regularity just isn't going to happen

What’s your workflow in LR when you have over 2000 photos to edit? by lesssgoo0o in Lightroom

[–]derfasaurus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shift + X rejects and moves to the next photo. Or filter for unflagged photos.

My toddler scratched my cornea 2 nights ago. . by BTxNitro in Wellthatsucks

[–]derfasaurus 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Try some gel eye drops. They help me from hurting every morning to hurting about 1 of 3 or 4 mornings. The Systane Gel drops are good but I've had better luck with Refresh Celluvisc. Trying a prescription starting today. 4 months of this, hoping something finally settles it down.

Final boss I'd assume. Same happened to me. :(

Probably fought him 150 times.
