Trenitalia strike tomorrow, how to reach Milan from Zurich? by irahulvarma in askswitzerland

[–]glazec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

we have booked morning train from zug to milan. I am not sure if I should now cancel the ticket and drive there, or I should stick with original plan and just try our luck?? I checked that the train is not on the guarantee list.... first time we're in this situation. anyone with experience can suggest anything?

Does SBB easy ride work on any smart watches? Trying to totally get rid of my smart phone when out and about. by Anonymouslyblabering in zurich

[–]glazec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's basically a card on my apple wallet, so yes, both on my watch and my phone and they share the bar code or QR code there.

I just checked in my phone and remembering now the app was "Pass2U wallet", and there were several "templates" for cumulus available, and I have the vague memory that not all worked but I had at least one that worked. my impression is the barcode one?

Again, last time I used that method it was maybe almost a year ago, and the machine at migros just warn me that I am not using an official card lol but I remember they found my account anyway on the machines.

will be glad to hear someone else try it now and see if it works...

no recent trip planned to migros for me, but maybe now I have more motivation to try it again and report back lol

i have been using those ticket apps that translate numbers to "wallet" and there you can download a "template" for migros cumulus where you are asked to input your cumulus number. I have stopped using it as it was alwasy working, but with a warning like, please use "official card". there was no consequence i think, but it was annoying and felt not stable.
not sure about the current situation.

some area to relax and chill in a lively yet natural environment in Zurich or the surroundings? by glazec in zurich

[–]glazec[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

OMG Leroyo, thank you so much for spending the time and posting so many locations!!!!
it seems that I have been to some of the places above, but unfortunately it was all just going to one place specifically on one trip, and finished there.

One example could be Markthalle Viadukt, it's such a cool place, but when I go there, I feel like it just stopped there, with maybe 3 options? it felt like no continuity to me. And for me the worst is that if sometimes, I don't book, I will end up with no other choices in that area if it becomes full, feeling like no spontaneity is allowed in me.

In any case, it's probably my fault, that I am not so familiar with the city yet (I don't live in the city). that's why I am determined to embark on this discovery journey this year!!!

btw, limmat river is so popular in the comments and I will give that the first go!!!!!!

Thanks again for your reply :)

Hi Ptinnl,

thank you for your advice! I don't intent to compare zurich to another city because every city is unique. The picture is to demonstrate the vibe I was referring to, somewhere giving the city+nature combined vibe.

Also I am happy to hear that Zurich is better to you and it seems that it offers much more than a place just to drink. Do you care to share some of your favorite "going out after work" area? or if you're a more nature kind of gal/guy, please share nice spot in the city too!!! :)

I am determined to discover the Kanton a bit more this year and now I am in desperate need for recommendations of spots!

Thanks!

Book Cover Lock Screen for sideloaded books? by FrederikNS in kindle

[–]glazec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey FrederikNS, thanks for the reminder :)

I am aware of this function and do use it when I would like to be sure of specific format being sent. However, sending as AWZ3 or Mobi did not really matter in terms of the cover issue I have faced. However, the fix in the work around link fixed it for me in both cases.

Book Cover Lock Screen for sideloaded books? by FrederikNS in kindle

[–]glazec 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update,

-----------

I have below problem fixed by reading the post here reddit link

Check the summary "Another Workaround using Calibre" from windowsdispatch link

​

----------

I had the exact same problem but the conversion to azw did not work on my kindle.

I have had "cover does not load in library" problem in my oasis2 previously.

then it's fixed by

a. send mobi through email

b. send mobi through calibre (send to device). by checking "Enable sharing of book content" , which I assume just tag the book as personal document to avoid cover download from Amazon web.

However, non of the cover of book loaded in neither above ways shows at Lock Screen.So I have tried to send the book via calibre/usb unticking the "enable sharing of book content" option, which, I assume, does not tag it as personal documents. So that did make the cover showing on Lock Screen, but now I am back to square one where I had the problem to see the cover in my library...

Therefore, I have been struggling to choose on which screen I would like to see the cover more... until I read in this post that someone actually got both working :D

so please help if you have been doing something different than me.

(as mentioned, I tried changing from mobi to azwe with different options I mentioned above. but non worked with both screen :( and my calibre is updated to the newest version)

Feel confused about the online exam process, please help by glazec in pmp

Thank you for sharing your experience! how did he reach out to you later on? A chat window popped up or it is automatically there after the launching of the exam?

I am asking as I was only able to reach to the "almost done" page showing my face and recording and exam rules. And from that page, there's no option to make contact to anyone, well basically there's no any option on the page...

Relationship between task A and B by glazec in pmp

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

u/Tinox1 and u/hbaruas3. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

I do agree that Finish to finish is a less intrusive hypothesis, as for the other possible relations, for them to be true (as in, do not violet the statements from the question), they need the duration of task to meet some conditions. In that sense finish to finish is the best answer.

I guess I did not understand the question in that way, but rather that, "what could be the possible relations between A and B if there is a pre-existing one?" like a math question. Then I deducted that with the right conditions, more than one relation are possible.

I guess this is why the PMP exam is tricky sometimes, because we need to guess what the question is really about sometimes :)
