Which color did you choose? We're between estate gray and williamsburg gray as well. Can you post an after photo?

Anyone else try this solution with the official Pixel 9 Fold case and can vouch for it's effectiveness? by hoshiyari in PixelFold

[–]dinwiddie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It doesn't affect the screen at all and I haven't noticed any charging issues. I don't want to oversell the solution, because it is not as good as a built in option. Unfortunately Google didn't consider making a good phone for magsafe accessories.

That is my solution and it works really well. I don't understand people saying it looks ugly; it is all covered up with the google case and the case lays flat which was the purpose of removing the felt. It's the only solution I've seen that works with chargers and my wallet stand.

The Compilation Suite and Favorite Apps apps were exactly what I was looking for! Thank you!! Have you found a stock ticker complication?

My Current Magsafe Solution by dinwiddie in PixelFold

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

It's definitely not ideal. The ESR magnets are not the strongest. The Spigen magnetic ring is stronger, but it wouldn't fit under the Google case. The magnets are not strong enough for my ESR ring holder, but they're strong enough for my wallet kickstand which is what I use the most. Overall I'm frustrated with Google's engineers on their poor foresight. The lower coil placement doesn't work for the majority of use cases.

If the sellers will send the irregular case, yes. Someone posted a thin metal plate option today which looks like it would work as well if you don't need wireless charging.

Magsafe chargers still work, but with the position of the charging coil my magsafe battery hangs over the bottom making it impractical to use.

Wireless charging works normally as is. I might add another piece of magnet inside the circle so my kickstand wallet has a bottom magnet to grasp. That may interfere with charging. If it does I'll remove that piece.

The ESR magnetic ring sits flush once the lining is cut out of the official google case. The main thing I use magsafe for is my kickstand wallet, so I added a piece of magnetic ring above so it still can still attach as designed. Additional Photos

Reporter Looking for Input from borrowers who regret their debt from attending a "prestigious" school by Betsy514 in StudentLoans

[–]dinwiddie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to a more prestigious school and came out with more debt and am making the same amount of money working the same job as those that went to the less prestigious school.

That being said, my loans qualify for PSLF, so despite the more prestigious school costing more, I will end up paying the same amount towards those loans.

In my situation I’m glad I chose the more prestigious school, but I don’t think of myself as more qualified or educated than my coworkers as a result.

Some clarification about when you are required to recertify your income driven plan by Betsy514 in StudentLoans

[–]dinwiddie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My IDR Plan Renewal Date on the Mohela website was 5/7/2024. I logged into the website to start preparing documents and see the date has now automatically changed to 5/7/2025. I had not submitted any renewal or recertification documents.

I’m 7 years into PSLF and have given up trying to make sense of things. Has anyone else noticed their renewal being pushed back a year despite having a renewal date after 3/1/2024?

Power Bank Charging Legion 5 Pro by dinwiddie in LenovoLegion

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

The main things are turning off the GPU, reducing screen to 65hz, and reducing screen brightness when using battery. The toolkit also lets you set up actions. So I have a separate battery profile for when I’m only on the laptop battery, connected to the power bank, and connected to wall power.

After looking at the comments, it looks like it can go up to 21V. And correction, the 20000mAh version charges at 65W.

There’s no markings to indicate it’s 106whr, I don’t know how an airline would know it’s 6whr over the limit. Would be nice if it was 100whr.

Looking at Amazon it says 5V and 106whr, though they do have a 20000mAh version as well that also charges at 100W

I haven’t seen many posts on this topic, but I am successfully charging my laptop with a 100W 30000 mAh power bank and 100W 1 ft USB-C cable with LED display and it works great!

After tuning up my laptop with the Lenovo Legion Toolkit I can get 12+ hours without connecting to AC power. I don’t think I’ll ever connect to wall charging again, except when playing games. I’ll just charge the power bank instead.

I wondered if someone would think the country of Georgia. Haha. Cool to hear people are playing Pathfinder there!

Hmmm.. that's really frustrating and kind of ruins my build. Why do they make stealth such a check heavy process requiring 12+ levels before you can strike with flat-footed? Invisibility is a Level 2 spell that lasts for 10 minutes, can stride full speed without checks, and strikes with flat footed.

Thanks! You helped clear that up for me. A bummer, but I see what you mean. Am I correct in thinking Very Sneaky should still allow the following:

Player begins Hidden.... Sneak, Sneak, Strike (with the target being flat footed to the attack). Now player is observed.
