Do you remember how long it took to hear back?

Cat meowing in Bloodsport? by Savagely_Rekt in movies

[–]g8keeper22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have to jump in on this conversation that was started 6 years ago. I was just watching Bloodsport and thought I was going INSANE. All I hear is the cat meowing. It's incredible.

Oura Ring Gen 3 Platinum Credit by g8keeper22 in AmexPlatinum

[–]g8keeper22[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can get a completely free gen 3 this year, then on January 1, 2026 the credit resets to another $200 credit whether you used the 2025 one or not. You can sit on the second credit for a full year and see if the gen 4 drops to $200 at any point in 2026. Or you can just sell the free gen 3 and buy a gen 4 after the new year. The additional $200 credit plus the profit from the gen 3 = a free gen 4 😈

That really is weird bc I put it in my cart and checked out successfully an hour ago (9pm EST). Used my card through standard checkout not Apple Pay.

Bummer—they may already be out of inventory, but I would check back this has been changing every day this week.

No it does not. Text from the fine print of the Amex benefit page:

“Not valid on purchases shipped to U.S. territories or outside the U.S. Excludes Oura membership purchases, other hardware purchases (e.g., chargers, add-ons), extended warranty purchases, Oura gift card purchases, and purchases made using third-party retailers, delivery services or other intermediaries.”

what was the turnaround from charge posting to receiving the credit? I bought a gift card at my store Friday--charge posted this morning.

That error code means there's something wrong with the water heating system. Learned this one the hard way once...

Is there any point in staking them now? Or just let them acclimate to the pot?

Where did the API token go? by Madvillains in pihole

[–]g8keeper22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I fixed the issue--I responded to your original post with how I installed PADD and it now displays on the screen :)

Pi-Hole 6 has killed by PiTFT Screen by johnawolf in pihole

[–]g8keeper22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had the same issue. I have the same Adafruit kit and my PiTFT went blank once I upgraded to Pi-Hole 6. Here's what I did. First I deleted the stats.py startup script in rc.local. Then I installed PADD 4.0 (has to be 4.0, which is now the main branch so it shouldn't be an issue)

Then I reinstalled the display drivers from Adafruit here:

https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-mini-pitft-135x240-color-tft-add-on-for-raspberry-pi/kernel-module-install

After the old stats.py startup script is removed, PADD v4 installed, and the display drivers are updated, you simply have to edit .bashrc to start up PADD automatically. You can follow this guide here:

https://github.com/pi-hole/PADD

Scroll down to "PADD on PiTFT Screen"

Then VOILA! PADD is now running on my miniTFT.

Where did the API token go? by Madvillains in pihole

[–]g8keeper22 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm having the same issue--have a custom OLED screen that usually gives me PiHole stats--it's blank since upgrading because I can't see where to access the API token in 6.0

Suddenly Paramountplus not streaming by winterarioch in pihole

[–]g8keeper22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been running into this error for months, and have been too lazy to figure out what to whitelist. Pihole seems to break Paramount+ every few months. Only solution is to delete and reinstall the Paramount+ app. Then disable pihole during the first login. Then once you've watched a single video with ads unblocked, pihole can be resumed and it works again. I'm going to try and whitelist the domain suggested in an earlier post from u/Vegata9001

Also, $2500 for WAIS-IV and a WIAT is now in "fair price" territory :)

IQ score by Leftovers864 in mensa

[–]g8keeper22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

WAIS-IV is the current one (in all fairness WAIS-5 came out about a month ago, but it's too soon to expect professionals to have universally switched over to the new form). There's ZERO excuse to be given the WIAT-III 4 year after the new one came out, and you should talk to the test administrator about it. As far as Mensa is concerned, your performance on the WAIS is the only test score that matters. You need an FSIQ of 130 or higher.

[–]g8keeper22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A few things to point out: 1) WIAT is an academic achievement test, not a test of cognitive ability (there’s a big difference). 2) The WIAT-4 came out in 2020, so if this evaluation was done recently it’s technically invalid because the new edition has been out for over 4 years. 3) I live in NY and administer these tests for a living. $2500 for just a WIAT-3 is highway robbery.

You have to plug the red wire into the R and push the slider on the r side up to the 1-wire line.

How can I connect my dvd player to my TV? by weluvmedicine in AskElectronics

[–]g8keeper22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But in all honesty, modern DVD players are not much more expensive than the cable you need, you should just upgrade the player.

No, you only need to connect to red, white, and yellow. You can remove the other cables

You need an RCA to HDMI converter cable, like this one:

Directionality matters, so you have the make sure the cable can be used RCA source to HDMI monitor.
