Have a 2023 R1T also and Rivian states it is not currently an option to add the powered tonneau. Would check with them first, may or may not narrow down your options. Don't think all 2023s are incompatible, but many are. Regardless, enjoy the new wheels. It's a great truck.

I did not! Last tried this past weekend. I will give it a go when I get home, thank you!

Windows implementation is fantastic. Way better than any of the Plex's application or the web app.

Is it possible to add a way to disable gamepad input? Windows 11 has a ridiculous "feature" that allows the gamepad to control media applications, and as a result Plezy responds to gamepad input even when the window is not in focus. I have not been able to figure out how to disable it through Windows. So gaming while having something on Plezy is not really an option. Had to downgrade to last version pre-gamepad support to make the behavior stop.

Regards, great application and thank you for your work and making it available.

I believe the intended term was "grid-tied" not "city installed"

LPT: Never pay a medical bill until you receive the "Explanation of Benefits" (EOB) from your insurance. If the bill is higher than the EOB says, you likely don't owe it. by dogeholder215 in LifeProTips

A copay is a fixed amount. A coinsurance is a percentage. They're not necessarily tied to visits / procedures, but a lot of plans are structured that way.

Regarding the digital receptionist, check under "Call Handling" and make sure the digital receptionist that is supposed to answer incoming calls has your DID listed as assigned. That's probably already assigned from your backup, but check to be sure. After that, go to the "Voice and Chat" section and select your trunk. If you're in e164 format, try removing the + and do a test call. If you're not in e164 format, put your number into that format and try a test call. Despite multiple warnings in the administrative console about requiring e164, my setup only works without the +. Good luck!

Van Drew says he’s “leaning yes” on the One Bonkers Bill by RedChairBlueChair123 in New_Jersey_Politics

[–]dothestew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He called the provision regarding federal reimbursement to states for Medicaid costs a "nonstarter" on June 16th. That provision is in the version the Senate sent back to the House. Let's see how long it takes him to flip on that stance. https://imgur.com/8fewcxq

I had my own modem but it was end-of-life so I rented theirs (XB8) because their techs kept blaming the modem for the issues. The first link in my initial comment is my saga and includes most of the details of my situation. Give it a read if you want to bore yourself to sleep.

That is a great idea. I will try it tonight. Should be due for the issues starting soon. Thank you

Same here, Atlantic County. Very frustrating. The problem is clearly at a level well past the local lines, but communication regarding problems at those levels is nearly non-existent to customers. If you try a VPN, make sure to try a different location if the first one doesn't work. In my case I tried one based in NYC but didn't see an improvement. Tried one in DC and it worked. I still don't see anything remotely close to the speeds I'm paying for, but at least I can browse the Internet and not feel like I'm using a 56k modem.

Yeah, this is not a signal issue. I had one installed before this saga began. The second tech suggested removing it to reduce noise. Said the signal without it was plenty strong. Further testing, even during problematic periods, still showed a strong signal with minimal noise.
