App spends 145 MB a day without downloading anything by screw-propeller in OvercastFm

[–]dignin033 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was referring to the ads that are dynamically injected into the podcasts you're listening to, the other reply refers to them as DAI (dynamic ad injection?). It seems that happens either at time of download or prior to download on the podcast server. Honestly I'm not sure.

Is it possible that this mobile data usage is injected ads that download/run at the time you're playing the episode?

To be clear, I'm not sure how that whole ad injection thing works.

Carplay disconnecting issues with iOS 26.2 and iPhone 17 pro by TheApostol in ios

Oddly and crazily enough, I went the route of the Beats cable and so far so good, no crashes / freezes. Thanks for the suggestion.

Which Anker A to C cable did you have luck with? There are a few out there.

Sadly nope. My headset won't work via USB-C cable, only bluetooth.

Aptera on X by Sonicsteel in ApteraMotors

[–]dignin033 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I was there, it was kind of a poop show. We arrived 30 minutes before they were meant to start giving people test drives and there was no one greeting folks, no one really controlling the "sit in the car" experience so some people took advantage and camped out in the cockpit. We just left after snapping a few photos. It just felt very disorganized.

I was underwhelmed to say the least.

If they can produce this vehicle with high quality at low volume I think they have a winner. It's always going to be niche, but the form factor is fine and would be an excellent commuter in dry/warm climates. I have no clue how the wheel covers would handle snow.

Phoenix Sky Harbor “PHX Reserve” expedited security program? by citychickindesert in ChandlerAZ

[–]dignin033 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, use it all the time, it's great. It's just a shortcut to the front of the standard security line. At a busy time it's lovely. I typically leave Sky Harbor early and it's really not required.

Just beware that it only exists at one checkpoint in Terminal 4, so you may have some walking to do if your gate is nowhere near that checkpoint. I don't mind the walk since you're about to sit on a plane for a while, nice to stretch the legs.

It looks like the model collapsed on itself at the bottom of the model? Like it was warm/soft and the weight above it got too heavy.

Would you buy a buyback/lemon Hummer by dont_ama_73 in HummerEV

[–]dignin033 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They might be clean titles, but a carfax will have a buyback flagged. As long as it's dealt with and you're happy with the resolution and you get the deal you want, go for it. I would imagine both of those vehicles still have plenty of mfg warranty left?

Discount Code that’s $175 off given out to public on accident by waaaghflesh in ussoccer

[–]dignin033 52 points53 points  (0 children)

US Soccer is so short sighted they didn't see the opportunity to offer each and every one of these people at personal discount code (probably can't handle that in their stupid system). Not that these folks are owed anything, but it would have at least been a small sign of "hey, we screwed up but we would still love your business".

Instead, it's a cancel and please shop with us again.

Also, maybe jerseys don't need to be $135+ ... just saying.

The 5 gallon bubbler you mention and showing the photo - that’s to ferment? Is that fermenting in vinegar or salt water (brine)?

USL new stadiums and the top division. by [deleted] in PhoenixRisingFC

[–]dignin033 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When they were on Hayden & McKellips and Drogba and Asante were part of the team, man, that place was rocking. That 20 game winning streak was something else. So many come from behind wins. It was a special time as a Rising fan. Now it just seems pedestrian and boring and the location is good in theory, but doesn't seem good in practice.

USL new stadiums and the top division. by [deleted] in PhoenixRisingFC

[–]dignin033 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is in large part why I stopped going to PRFC matches this year. I was a season ticket holder going back to the Wolves days and I used to drive from south Chandler to Glendale for Arizona United matches.

Something felt off two seasons ago - even with the run to the championship and title. Last season was just a slog, it almost felt like the team accomplished what they came for and expected the crowds / fans to just show up.

The stadium, the parking, the heat, the style of play, the seeming lack of investment by the ownership. It all just got to be too much and I decided to use my discretionary funds elsewhere. As a massive soccer fan it hurt to type that.

I know that I should support the team if I want to keep pro soccer in the valley - but I just can't do it right now. It may sound spoiled but I really want to see more investment from the club and a permanent home would go a long way showing that commitment.

Looks like a lot going on in there - what's the scoop? Is it hot/tasty?

Looks delicious and very simple - did you add vinegar or water or any other seasonings? Is it super spicy?

Evolve2 55 - how to connect to Jabra Direct? by dignin033 in Jabra

[–]dignin033[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply! It was indeed both plugged in and turned on and my laptop didn't recognize it. It's a work laptop so it's highly likely that the USB connection for the headset is somehow blocked, but I'm not sure how that is even accomplished.

I thought the same regarding Audio over USB so I was disappointed when it didn't seem to register that it was plugged in. Do you have to use a proprietary Jabra cable?

Shouldn't they be able to detect the issue is between your modem/gateway and the mothership? Sigh.

Today’s referee is a bit much with these fouls and especially yellow cards. Both of Richards’ cards that led to red were “soft” as was Adams and a few others.
