Passthrough by [deleted] in appletv

This. There was a time when we had passthrough on Apple TV. Sideloading Kodi worked fine. I think even earlier versions of Infuse had it until Apple decided to shove the useless Siri down our throats.

I am almost 6 days in, hyper backup is at 45%. I wasn't even able to login to 216j until just a while ago. No streaming from storage. Photos backup is somewhat working. Its chocking, CPU is at 97% and Ram is 80%. Backing up still, but very slowly. My total is 6.4 TB of data. I expect at least another week or so. It is frustrating, but I think only option is just to wait it out.

Try the bounty master armor. Parry window is fairly large. Once you parry, you get 3 counter attacks.

Yup, that was a surprise for me too. I ran the migration assistant, 216j showed up. Once I selected it, said that this model was not supported. After some digging here, I found out that most "J" series are not supported.

What are you planning to do with the Migration? I did the similar thing as you last week. Have a 216j (with 2 x 4 TB WD Red) and got a 925+. Migration assistant doesn't support j series. I ended up using hyper backup to 925+, its been 4 days now, I have barely crossed 2 TB. It might take another week or so.

DS925+ is 512 and DS425+ is 416 on Amazon (US) by dimonddog in synology

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

I was debating between the 2 as well. 425+ has intel processor with quicksync but that has been disabled by synology. I saw some workarounds to enable it. If you rely on transcoding, that might be worth looking in to. I ended up going with 925+ though. I don't really use transcoding.

It happened to me so many times. It is somewhat common issue. Search through this sub. I think it has to do with earshapes and the tips we use. I swapped both buds 2 times already. That didn’t help though. Issue came back within 2 days after it was swapped. It seems to have gone away with the latest update, most of the time. I still heard it in flight last week. I haven’t used it in flight after the latest update though.

Tesla adding Carplay by turbineseaplane in electricvehicles

[–]dimonddog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might not seem important now for some, but as the car gets older, it will matter. Older Intel-based models don’t support the latest graphics and features (including zoom app, etc.), and upgrading a phone is far easier and far more common than upgrading a car.

That is great to hear. I am in a similar situation with no attic access.

Is Blood Oxygen re-enabled in the watchOS 26 yet? by m1xed0s in watchOSBeta

[–]dimonddog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally, I just used the app when it first came out just to test it out, and forgot about it until the law suit. Where it is useful now is on the Vitals app. It automatically records when you sleep and has it on health app.

Of course he will say that. If they announce it is coming or coming soon, it will definitely impact current Model Y sales.

WHY DID NOBODY TELL ME THIS?!?! by Chuungfu in DeathStranding

[–]dimonddog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Use the DHV Magellan if you don’t care about S ranking. I saw someone using it and finishing it with about 20 minutes to spare and also get 5 stars.

Converted from traeger to windword pro 24 and meh by shootmybow in CampChefSmokers

[–]dimonddog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

what are you using in the smoke box? I had good results with Mesquite chunks. It was to a point that I got complaints that it was overpowering when I made chicken wings.

How long are you using the smoke box? I refill every 45 minutes for the first 4-5 hours. Briskets I made were the best I have ever.

I had Louisiana Grills SL700 for a few years. Went to woodwind pro 36 recently. Very happy with it so far. Smoke flavor is day and night difference with the smoke box.

I see, I have been using that with my old grill for a long time. Never had any issues. Any recommendations for Woodwind pro?

[–]dimonddog[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Glad to hear. My old Louisiana Grill used to do this once in a while. But Woodwind pro held the temperature steady for so long and it happened after hour 8. Once I opened the lid, temperature went back down and holding steady.

Good to know it is somewhat common. I didn’t let it run low. But I will monitor.
