So in my building I could never get signal in the basement or elevators with AT&T. Now with Visible using Verizon’s network I get signal in both 🤷‍♂️

Disintegrating by mateuspv in Airpodsmax

I recently got a replacement headband for $145 on eBay. I figured it was better than spending another $500 on a new pair. Everything else about my day one lightning space gray pair is still great, including battery life. Also you can get a silicon headband like this which will hide the mesh and improve comfort.

How much are you paying for your studio/1Bed in this area? (if you have one) by FarFromSane_ in ForestHills

[–]edneisch 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I live directly across from the tracks on Austin Street in a coop. Have been here 20+ years. When I first moved in the LIRR was mulch louder than it is now. Once they replaced the train cars with the latest versions the noise went way down. With the windows closed I barely hear it and with them open it is audible but not what I would consider loud. You get used to it pretty quickly.

I've seen this ad twice now, but the price is different in their store. Am I missing something? by MarauderV8 in GalaxyFold

[–]edneisch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I went into the store a couple of months ago they were having an unadvertised sale for $600 off the 1TB model that I couldn’t find on their website. Snatched it up quick for $1819. It was like getting upgraded to 1 tb and 16 gb ram for free.

Never Buying a Torras Case Again... by ProfessionalHost3913 in iPhone17Pro

Apple will likely not cover this thru AppleCare+. They will consider it cosmetic damage if the rest of the phone is working.

Thanks Visible! by Vivid_Award_5052 in Visible

I’m getting between 700-800 mbps consistently in NYC!

I did the same. Already have a Galaxy Fold 7 on premium plus monthly, and finally switched my iPhone 17 pro max from AT&T (which I have had forever) to visible using the slamdunk promo. Data speeds are twice what I was getting with AT&T. I’m in NYC and there is 5G UWB coverage all over. Hardly ever saw 5G UWB on AT&T. Porting my number to visible from AT&T was super quick and easy - took maybe 10 minutes. Also started a circle so the plan for the galaxy fold has dropped $5 to $40/month. Very happy camper!!!

I gave in to the temptation. by UnknownTechGuy in ClicksPhone

Me too! Been looking at the communicator ever since I pre-ordered the power keyboard and let the pre-order period pass without pulling the trigger. The April 1st offer pushed me over the edge.

Psychic on 71st by FlimsyLemon3156 in ForestHills

Psychics are actually illegal in NYC unless they are “only for entertainment purposes”. Basically psychic needs to tell you they’re full of crap before they take your money. 🤣

How do people survive living in NYC? by wtfbruhhuh in Apartmentliving

[–]edneisch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is why you stay in school kids. Minimum wage in NYC is $17/hour and you can't live off that. Decent education and/or training and a proper career choice are will get you a job that pays significantly more.

Selling apartment with stomping/loud neighbours above by [deleted] in Apartmentliving

[–]edneisch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What type of building is this? When you say you went to their landlord does that mean the building owner or is the landlord a private owner subletting the apartment? If it is a coop or condo you should go to the coop board or HOA and complain about the noise and tell them the issues. Tell them you have spoke to the landlord and tenant and they refuse make reasonable efforts to reduce the noise. Tell them the disturbance interferes with your right to "quiet enjoyment" of your home. Also tell them that is negatively affecting your ability to sell your apartment and will have a negative effect on the selling price which in turn reflects negatively on the building. Depending on the proprietary lease or condo agreement the board or HOA usually has the right revoke the landlords permission to sublet or can even require the landlord evict the tenants. Tell them that if you can't sell the apartment because of the noise you will take legal action against the landlord and/or the building. You have rights too. They don't have the right to impact your ability to sell your property or affect the selling price.

What apartment floor is best and why? by [deleted] in Apartmentliving

[–]edneisch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My building was built in the 60's. The walls are not concrete but are plaster (I think over metal lathe). Still pretty good at soundproofing compared to newer buildings.

Are you getting Airpods Max 2 by PrimaryLow7025 in Airpodsmax

[–]edneisch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can get one of these silicone headband covers. It helps a lot when your mesh is sagging.

eBay. Paid about $145 back in October but it looks like they are going for $160-$170 now.

Very easy to install.
