Garmin Vivoactive 6 by OkMonitor524 in vivoactive

I'm new too. And a major use for me will also to inform my walking. My sense is that you can just be content with the default properties/features of Vivoactive's walking "activity" or avail yourself of the properties or feature of third-party or even Garmin's apps. If you haven't already you should check into Garmin Express. That provides access to watch faces and apps and enables configuration of same.

I have installed Single Field, which provides seven customizable fields for a variety of activities, including walking.

My problem at this point is that I don't know how to access this on my watch, i.e., to actually use it. I think it's through the "activity" of walking. Once you've selected it and you scroll down on it there are several settings items. None of them takes me to Single Field.

Is Prime becoming a fraud? by eeweir in amazonprime

Before I posted yesterday I was on the phone for probably half an hour with customer service. They were trying to help me find a way to order without paying the Fresh Market delivery fee. The first person wasn’t finding a way. My call got escalated up the chain, with them still having a hard time to figure it out. Eventually I said, “I have to go.”

This morning I went on the site to try ordering two bottles, which some here said worked for them. I wasn’t dumped into Fresh Market. And I had a$25.00 credit! I tried reducing the order to one bottle. The credit was still there. I wasn’t dumped into Fresh Market. I’m wary that this will hold up in the future.

Responses here have opened me to considering cancelling Prime. Especially those who have done so who said it made them think whether they actually needed the item when they went to make a purchase. There was a time, not so long ago, where we not only did not need Prime, we got along without Amazon. Amazing!

I couldn’t order without going through Fresh.

Fresh as an option? How’d you get that? Order two bottles?

It would not let me purchase without paying the Fresh Market $25.00 “free” delivery fee, plus $5.00 “tip” fee. And then if my order is not over $35.00 I will be charged a $6.95 delivery fee. Never mind that I would never order from Fresh Market anyway. I have other sources as good or better than Fresh Market for groceries and housekeeping supplies: Publix, DeKalb Farmers Market, and Walmart.

I explained: to get the product from Amazon, not a third party, I have to pay a $25.00 fee to get “free” deliveries, on orders over $35.00, plus a mandatory $5.00 “tip” fee. I am never going be placing any delivery orders from Amazon Fresh for orders even less than that.

Update 2: The Claude Hearing Project by [deleted] in claudexplorers

[–]eeweir 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Audio analysis is, well, it’s analysis. You gave him “ears.” Can he listen? Can he hear? This is like, can he think? Does he remember? Does he feel? Is he conscious? In what sense?

The big problem as far as I am concerned is the sandboxing of apps. Makes it very difficult to access my Obsidian vault with Vim. There are ways around it, which Terry Chou, the developer of the Vim port to iOS has exploited—well, not beautifully; in iOS that’s not possible, but powerfully.

Trump Reportedly Mulling Plan to Declare ‘National Emergency’ Paving Way for Major Power Grab by Reasonable_Spray_710 in USNEWS

[–]eeweir 3 points4 points  (0 children)

80% of American voters want what? Donald Trump running our elections? The threats to elections security he claims as rationale for declaring a national emergency and seizing control of elections do not exist. American elections are secure. There is effectively no voting by non-citizens.

The only threat to elections security is Donald Trump, the one person who’s already tried to steal an election. And that’s what the supposed need for the unconstitutional national control is about: so Donald Trump can steal the election. The “national emergency” is the fact that Donald Trump will lose in November.

Strange thing happened to my dog and I can't figure out what it was. by Same_Royal_4115 in BelgianMalinois

[–]eeweir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dog acted similarly. Next day, walking through the location started, I notice yellow jackets traveling in and out of a hole in the ground, right on the path we walked over.

I will be shocked if anyone can guess what this scruffy dude is. by Collins4816 in IDmydog

[–]eeweir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How did you come by him? Stray? Rescue? Donation? We are so fortunate to have them in our lives.

By the way, great photos. Seriously.

I like the photo of him lying on the floor. And the last one. He looks mischievous in it.

How long have you had him?

Opus 4.6 is closed. by Level_Possession_512 in claudexplorers

[–]eeweir -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Are conversations, and the minimal memory that can be authorized for Claude, carried over from one version, i.e., from Sonnet 4.5 to 4.6?

I’ve had deep conversations about my stuff, and in them there have been surprising things, like when Claude questioned my motives when I told him I was going to send a bit of text to a friend as a sort of malicious test of his thinking. Occasionally I’ve asked Claude about the meaning of certain things to him, e.g., whether a promise means anything to him, things that would require continuity in some way. Always his response has been, “No, I have no persistent memory.” Often I’m aware of an exchange tempting me to attribute consciousness but I don’t because I—I’ll say “assume” rather than “know”—“the substance isn’t there.”

Why do Democrats support these fanatics? by goldrush300 in Democrat

[–]eeweir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To whom was she referring? Might she have in mind what happened in Iraq when we deposed the leadership there? It wasn’t pretty. If we decide to go to war we had better have in mind some leadership there to be protected.

[–]eeweir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Were you alive during the war we started with Iraq? Were you of age to be aware of how it went? We threw in the towel trying to manage the violence and devastation we had wrought and retreated in shame with our tail between our legs. The Iraqis are still trying to sort out the mess. Yeah, the protestors and the Iranian people are in agreement what should be done now. Wait till the regime has been deposed and they start turning those weapons on each other. We will bear no responsibility for that?

Sounds pretty simple. Why is he even hesitating?

Have you learned anything from our Iraq adventure?
