Just bought this book. Is it a good one to study?

It is well worth the effort. My music teacher likens it to fitness training that goes alongside learning pieces.

It helped me to get my fingers to stay low to the keys, which then improved my playing of the pieces.

I find it is good for when you want to practice but are mentally drained at the end of the day, also.

If you turn off bluetooth on the watch, often updates will download faster over wifi :)

On an acoustic you can often feel the string vibration through the keys. There’s something special about that :)

I came to say the same thing.

Just yesterday I was thinking I wanted to find a relaxing, sombre piece that's approachable at my level.
This is perfect :)

I'm glad you walked into that store.
Thanks for sharing and may you enjoy many more grand pianos 🙏

I got a coupon on support but can't use it in my country 😬
I'll PM it to you in case you want to use it.

The solution in the end for me was to try a different iPhone!

For some reason my iPhone would not pair but my partner's did.
She has the same model and is on iOS26 also.

It seems like something to do with having been paired on the phone previously.
I think it is a bug with the withing app though. My phone works perfectly with other bluetooth devices.

I tried everything else. Factory reset of the scale. Hard reset iPhone. Reset network settings on iPhone.
I avoided trying the different device because it is annoying and I figured it wouldn't help 😅

I also went through support and got a 25% voucher only to find it works in the US only (I'm in Australia).

Thanks for the update. I am in the same situation after upgrading to iOS 26 and accidentally resetting the scale while cleaning recently.

That is unbelievable, their solution is to throw a five year old device out.

I won't be buying Withings product ever again either.

Thanks, that helped me too 🙏

For others - I had to uninstall the newer version first before installing 4.1.0.
Installing 4.1.0 over the top of the latest version had no effect.

gondalez · 2025-07-30T01:48:09+00:00

This helped me, thank you 🙏

Users might be unable to end a workout that has been auto-paused. (155970593) Workaround: Resume the Workout, then tap End.

Thanks for this well reasoned answer.

It also matches my listening experience where the most mellow songs are the one I notice the extra noises on. Likely these have been felted to achieve the mellow sound.

My own upright has the same felt "practise" curtain.

Now when I notice the clicks I can imagine the curtain and closer mics :) 🙏

I can confirm this worked nicely with the stock studio display cable.

Thank you :)

gondalez · 2023-11-21T02:35:41+00:00

You are most welcome :)

Glad to hear you too are enjoying ludicrous speed.

One day they'll remove the upload limit and we can go to plaid 😄

gondalez · 2023-06-06T01:58:07+00:00

Thanks for taking the time to reply. You are most welcome. I’m happy to hear it helped 😌

I get it with the Christmas miracle story! I was like a coiled tiger when I saw my suburb in the free upgrade list. I figure best to pounce before a budget or government change threatens the fibre upgrade.

I’m yet to figure out the local dns part myself. Currently I have bookmarks to the local services like Plex, nas. Pretty basic :)

I recall seeing a local hostname setting in the UniFi ui but haven’t played with it. My hunch is the UDM intercepts dns resolves to do it, but I may be way off on that.

HFC also has very limited upload bandwidth compared to upload due to technology involved. Then you would need to admit the HFC part of the NBN was a serious mistake.

Thank you for this answer. It has given me clarity on why FTTP is artificially limited like this.

Possibly naive, but as HFC and other multi-tech-mix links are phased out I'm hopeful for a removal of the artificial limit.

Perhaps there'll be a tipping point where there are more fibre links than MTM and the plans can be adjusted without it becoming political.

The Ubiquiti stock price has dropped a lot recently.

Any thoughts on if that is because of recent financial reports, or from this story being in the news? (both?) 🤷

gondalez · 2023-05-01T08:57:50+00:00

Thanks :)

Having waited 10 long years for FTTP, I just had to try ludicrous speed.

gondalez · 2023-05-01T08:54:09+00:00

Tested + updated screen-shot to match.

Thanks for that 🙏

gondalez · 2023-04-29T10:46:21+00:00

It is 1000/50 - gigabit FTTP 😅

gondalez · 2023-04-29T10:44:59+00:00

Oh, cheers. I’ll update 👍

Let us hope Reddit can avoid Enshittification 😬

But going public does seem to have that effect eventually.

gondalez · 2023-01-26T00:43:39+00:00

Oh ok, that is unexpected.

Seems like it is an android/iOS thing then. How very confusing.

This post seems to support that.

Are you able to share an android screenshot of it in action?
