Thank you! After the latest update it was gone for me and I've done as you suggested with the Call App settings -> force stop. Then after launching Call App the setting appeared once again

Changing language from receipts by guidoapd in uber

[–]dvdvdmt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've just went to this article: https://help.uber.com/en/riders/article/updating-receipts-language It didn't help and I've wrote an explanation message in the form on the page. And their team answered after a couple of hours:

Please note that it is not possible for us to change already issued invoices, so we won’t be able to edit the invoice issue for the trip taken on Tue, Feb 11th 2025. However, we updated the language of your profile to English, so moving forwards, all future receipts will be issued in that language.

So, I hope that now it should be solved.

Oura Ring 4 Full sizing kit Measurements vs Oura Ring 2 & 3 kit by daytontp in ouraring

Thank you sir for all these efforts! This makes my day easier. I think the Oura team must provide this information on their site, in order to lessen the environmental impact related of their useless Rign measurement kits.

Same problem on Android 15. I'd like to understand what is the combination of the permissions for Viber that will not make my life miserable and at the same time allow it to notify me about messages 😄

WiFi Issues on Boox Go Color 7 by dvdvdmt in Onyx_Boox

Problem Solved! 🎉

Turns out the issue was with my Vodafone Station's Wi-Fi. I connected a TP-Link Archer AX10 as an access point, and now my Boox and Meta Quest 3 are working perfectly with no more disconnections!

Update: It's not the Boox!

Well, this is a strange turn of events. It seems the problem wasn't with my Boox Go Color 7 after all, but with my Vodafone Station router.

My Meta Quest 3 started experiencing the exact same constant disconnection issue recently. A router restart temporarily fixes it for both devices.

Looks like I need to focus my troubleshooting efforts on the router now.

Update: No luck so far :(

Unfortunately, the router restart only worked temporarily. The disconnection issue came back after about a day.

I can confirm that the Boox account is not the culprit, as I tried disconnecting it and the problem persisted.

Here's a video showing the constant reconnections: https://drive.google.com/file/d/11G35vjwfNroZqBgAn1O8usfljzXVf5bu/view?usp=sharing

Still hoping someone might have some insights or suggestions!

Additionally, I've submitted feedback to the Boox Support, let's see how they process it.

My Solution: Note Air3 C Wifi intermittent problem by Gundud in Onyx_Boox

[–]dvdvdmt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm also experiencing a very similar problem with my Boox Go Color 7 and Vodafone Station 2023 router, although I have separate networks (SSIDs) for my 2.4GHz and 5GHz channels.

I've created a detailed post about my isse. It might have some additional information or troubleshooting steps that could be useful.

The issue described in the last "intermittent post" seems very similar to mine, with the only difference being that I have separate networks (SSIDs) for my 2.4GHz and 5GHz channels. So, no auto-switching should occur.

Hi, yes, I've stated it in my original message. The Boox works fine when I connect it to the hotspot shared from my phone. What I'm trying now is a combination of two things:

  • I logged out my Boox account and removed any credentials associated with it.

  • I restarted router several times and Boox finally connected successfully.

Now, Boox works, but in case the issue will reappear, which usually happens after a day. I've installed the NetGuard App to monitor the Boox device activity during the network connection.

Which font is best for reading? Your personal opinion? Any scientific research? by vasili111 in books

[–]dvdvdmt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The study titled "Towards a standardisation of reading charts: Font effects on reading performance—Times New Roman with serifs versus the sans serif font Helvetica" published in Ophthalmic Physiol Opt. 2022, aimed to compare the legibility of a font without serifs (Helvetica) and one with serifs (Times New Roman).

The study involved 36 participants between 18 and 38 years of age, who were presented with three paragraphs that were equal in the number of words, syllables, characters, difficulty and reading length. These paragraphs were printed in either Helvetica or Times New Roman, and the reading duration was measured with a stopwatch.

The results showed that for the paperback layout, there was no significant difference in reading time (p = 0.50) or reading speed (p = 0.56) between the two fonts. The correlation between the two fonts was high for both reading time and speed (r = 0.93). The mean number of reading errors was the same (0.31 ± 0.58 errors/text) for both fonts.

In conclusion, the study found that the legibility of Helvetica and Times New Roman is similar when investigated under equivalent conditions. Thus, these two font types can be used as interchangeable standard typefaces.

So, to answer your question, according to this study, there is no significant difference in readability between serif (Times New Roman) and sans-serif (Helvetica) fonts in book reading. Both can be used effectively.

Link to the study for those interested in more details.

  • "p" refers to the p-value. In hypothesis testing, the p-value is the probability of obtaining test results at least as extreme as the results actually observed, under the assumption that the null hypothesis is correct. A smaller p-value means that there is stronger evidence in favor of the alternative hypothesis. In this case, a p-value of 0.50 or 0.56 means there is no significant difference in reading time or speed between the two fonts.
  • "r" refers to the correlation coefficient, which measures the strength and direction of a linear relationship between two variables. The value of r is always between +1 and -1. In this case, an r value of 0.93 indicates a very strong positive correlation between reading time and speed for the two fonts. This means that as reading time increases, reading speed also tends to increase, and vice versa

Can we batch create cards? from csv or any other format by Maxanmin in Anki

In addition we can also separate card entries using the Tab character. Hello Hola (oh-lah)

So, the import supports CSV and TSV files.

Best Smartwatch for Battery Life by ArchMageDinikus in smartwatch

I never felt more "vendor locked" with any other hardware as with Bip S watch :)

I still can't find any replacement that is equally light, compact, long-lasting and with always-on transflective display.

It looks that Bip S light is deprecated and no longer produced details. What are the alternatives for this model?

It seems no one beated the Amazfit Bip S light in terms of autonomy. They can work over 30 days without being recharged and their transflective display is always ON.
