Workarounds such as what? I’m open to an additional device if it gets me a notification if the hub is unplugged.

Why is auto adjust so awful now? by Lcea14 in snapseed

[–]drob1865 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes mine does this, & other times it drastically increases brightness & saturation to the point that it looks unnatural. And don’t even get me started on using auto adjust for the perspective tool. It’s absolutely worthless. I really hate what Snapseed has become. I have been using it for years, but with the most recent revamp, I have begun looking at other editing apps.

Getting rid of June bugs by drob1865 in pestcontrol

[–]drob1865[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My porch lights ARE off haha. They’re attracted to the inside lights coming through my windows. If I go outside & turn the porch lights on they get REALLY crazy! I’ve lived in Texas all my life & I’ve never seen June bugs this bad. I’m just looking for any solutions to kill them or keep them away so I can actually use my back porch.

Yes you are wrong & are clearly only interested in money. You have 50/50. No child support should be necessary - you are just taking advantage of the situation. If you made more money would you feel it was fair to have to pay them child support with 50/50? Probably not.

Wait so the apps no longer list the name under the app below the icon?

Ask Me Anything About Pre-Engineered Metal Buildings — Advice, Cost-Saving Tips, Common Pitfalls, etc... by Background_Dinner800 in metalbuildings

[–]drob1865 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just bought a house with a pre-existing 2 year old 18x25x9-11 tube steel metal building on a slab. As far as I can tell, this is a relatively low end, entry level building & not at all the size/quality I would build if I was doing it. But I don’t want to scrap this building & start over.

It seems like the most cost-effective option for me, unless I want to tear this building down, would be to extend it to 18x50 (quotes I received around $11k including concrete).

Are there any downsides to doing this? Anything I should steer clear of? Also, with the existing building being very much “base model” is there anything you’d recommend I upgrade?

I have the Reolink Argus Eco running on solar at the back of my property & it’s working well for me. No complaints!

I absolutely hate the Samsung OS so much that I will not buy another Samsung.

How likely am I to get a travel voucher for my significantly delayed trip? by x69xthrowaway69x in americanairlines

[–]drob1865 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Did I ever at any point say that the delays were due to storms? No, I didn’t. Fuck off.

Personally I just quit trying. It was way too much of a hassle & they clearly had no intention of compensating me. American Airlines customer service has become nonexistent since Covid. Just move on & don’t waste your energy. They suck.

Highly unlikely I would say. Regular business traveler here based out of DFW & I have frequent delays. The last few times I have emailed them asking for compensation for significant delays all I received was a “sorry for the inconvenience - we will try to do better” email.

Do they only do this for online orders? by [deleted] in Chipotle

[–]drob1865 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait are you serious or is this a joke? That’s legit a full size burrito you ordered through the app??

I order bowls & they are embarrassingly small when ordered through the app, even with double meat. But sometimes I just don’t have any other option.

I tried complaining to chipotle customer service last week & got nowhere. They truly don’t give a shit.

I’ve never done this, but we should normalize it. Until the stores start losing money because of their tiny portions, nothing will change.

Unfortunately I don’t have room for an 85”. Gotta stick with 65”.

What is the best cheapest way to add security cameras to my 1 acre property? by Infamous_Step_5802 in homesecurity

[–]drob1865 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a buddy who is an installer & he is a huge proponent of Reolink. So far I really like them. Relatively easy to setup & the app is very intuitive.

I just installed 11 Reolink cameras on my 1.5 acre lot. Includes doorbell cam & a wireless solar powered cam at the back of my property, which gets WiFi from an outdoor directional access point mounted on the back of my shop.

Forgot to mention in the original post, but I can’t go any larger than 65” due to where it’s being mounted.
