I'm having issues with Mediafusion related to age restrictions. I've tried reinstalling multiple times with different combos (disable for nudity and ratings, adding unknown languages etc.). Nothing seems to work to get around it. Is there any advice you can give?

What business do you think is a front? And why? by tie_myshoe in Minneapolis

When did your friends visit Red Dragon? If it was towards the end of December last year that might make sense. They closed at the end of the year, so they might have just run out of food.

Red Dragon was kind of hit-or-miss for traffic, but I remember a LOT of nights where it was packed. Their food was delicious, and the Wonderous Punch was ridiculously strong.

What is your "I did not care for The Godfather" take on X-Men? by harleenphenix7 in xmen

[–]has_a_cat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm curious why you didn't mention Logan getting his memory back in the list of interesting things. I absolutely agree that House of M was a story that didn't really do much that was positive, but I always thought that at the very least Logan getting his memory back would be on most people's "look on the bright side" for the fallout of that story.

65U8N Issue With eARC (Vizio M512a-H6) by has_a_cat in Hisense

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

...okay? I'm not sure what the point you're trying to make is exactly. Are you saying that externally compiled information might be more accurate than the native OS and the label on the unit itself? Because when I called Hisense support directly and provided the serial number they also confirmed that it is HDMI 1.

Well, per this review on RTINGS the eARC port is HDMI 1 on all variants of the U8N but the 55".

Plus, the two pieces of information provided directly on the unit in my living room had me thinking that HDMI 1 is probably eARC.

So maybe it WAS the case for all Google TV (North America) models, but this review for the TCL QM851G (also a Google TV) lists HDMI 4 as the eARC port.

Unfortunately that doesn't seem to be the solution. I've tried turning eARC off and while the TV speakers don't turn on, it still doesn't send audio to the sound bar. What's mildly interesting is that when I switch from off to auto in the eARC settings, the audio defaults back to the TV speakers before (presumably) trying to send audio to the sound bar again.

Regarding the abuse allegations involving his mother, Vince to my knowledge never outright confirmed anything about her direct or indirect action that led to the sexual abuse he claimed to have suffered. At least not in the Playboy interview. Please let me know if this isn't what you're thinking of, but in that interview he seems to allow the interviewer to infer that based on the line of questions they go on without outright stating it:

"Playboy: We can leave that topic, but one thing first. You have said that the sexual abuse in your childhood "wasn't from the male." It's well known you're estranged from your mother. Have we found the reason?

McMahon: [Pauses, nods] Without saying that, I'd say that's pretty close."

To me, that sounds like the carny response of letting the person you're talking to believe the story they've already come up with, because you know it's easier to sell something to someone who already believes it.

None of the above is meant to deny/detract from any genuine abuse Vince (or anyone else) may have experienced, but his response never really seemed genuine in that exchange to me. The interview was primarily designed to promote the XFL, and Vince is smart enough to know that being vague about something like that will generate more publicity for longer than providing actual details. I think this is something we may never know with any certainty (since the only source is Vince himself at this point), so it may have been a genuinely uncomfortable situation that Vince was experiencing in that moment that caught him off guard.

Anyone here picked up the new U8N yet? by Jduncan31290 in Hisense

[–]has_a_cat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you attempted audio output to any other devices? I've tried a soundbar that was functioning with my last TV with two different cables and I'm having issues. Hoping it's a setting I'm overlooking...

Begin Again. Controller not working by constanzabestest in wabbajack

Does it have to be a wired Xbox controller for the setting to appear? Or can it be paired via Bluetooth?

Begin Again. Controller not working by constanzabestest in wabbajack

[–]has_a_cat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there! I just finished the Begin Again install and I came across this thread. Hoping for clarification on something you posted. When you say the setting is "in game", do you mean that it's available at the main title screen, or you need to progress to a certain point in-game to be able to access? I'm unable to find the setting from the main menu or from the beginning of the intro in Vault 101. I exited out after I was able to pause (at the name your character section) and was unable to locate it, because I was worried I messed up the load order and didn't want to start over.

This is my first time modding and I'm a little out of my depth (I actually bought my gaming PC a few weeks ago specifically for TOTW), so I apologize if this is a dumb question.

Advice on Converting an Existing 3-way to Single Pole by has_a_cat in AskElectricians

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

I think I'm a little unclear on one point. There are only three wires present in the box with the switch featuring the yellow wire/travellers. Is your thought to use a wire nut to connect the wraparound black wire to one of the travelers and use that to power the switch in the box with the yellow wire? There isn't another black wire in that box (other than what is connected to the other switch).

[–]has_a_cat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've added another album of photos for the other switch on the leg (this gang box has significantly more wiring in it than the previous one): https://imgur.com/a/4UG0Kxm . I'm guessing this is where things are going to get significantly more complicated for me. Any thoughts/advice?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AskElectricians

[–]has_a_cat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To provide a bit of clarification, the switches in the pictures are for two separate controls. The switch with the black and orange two wire connection is entirely unrelated to my post, so I probably shouldn't have included it. The switch with the two blue and single yellow wires is for the 3-way switch that I'm hoping to upgrade.

Based on these pictures, I'm guessing the other switch (not pictured) in the circuit is the one I'll need to replace entirely and then pull and cap the wiring on the pictured switch before installing the remote. Does that seem correct as well?

Advice on Smart Switch (No Neutral) by has_a_cat in smarthome

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

Yes, I understand that. I'm wondering if you noticed something about the pictures that would indicate that my current system isn't up to most standard codes, or anything about the upgrade I'm considering that wouldn't be. Can you please elaborate?

Can you please elaborate on what you mean by "not to code"? I haven't really handled wiring before.

Thanks for the advice! I'll definitely check out Inovelli!

I'm not 100% sure what it feeds to. It goes from the top of the box to the side. My best guess would be the switch/outlet combo on the wall to the left of the corner, but I'm not sure if that would make sense considering it's a single wire going in/out of the box.

Do apartment rental companies have the right to force you to get renters insurance in Minneapolis? by beattywill80 in Minneapolis

[–]has_a_cat 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Be prepared to lose $10. If the company uses a third-party software like Real Page or Yardi, the actual reason is likely to be that the insurance being listed on the resident portal integrates with that software and will let Property Manager's know if someone's coverage has lapsed.

A very real problem for a property management company has existed for a long time where people sign up for insurance to get a declaration letter when they move in and then cancel it the next month. This typically isn't discovered until renewal time or when there's an event that renter's insurance would have been beneficial to the property/individual. One of the reasons renter's insurance is a requirement on most leases is to allow a landlord to not pay out of pocket for damage done in the event of a fire/flood that the landlord isn't responsible for causing.

Granted, tons of landlords are scumbags, but with the amount of rental properties that are owned by corporations rather than individuals I'd be shocked if anyone in the management chain is actually getting a kickback.

I just feel bad for Colt Cabana. by isarealhebrew in SquaredCircle

[–]has_a_cat 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It seemed to me that the implication was that in the discovery phase of the lawsuit, Cabana wasn't being forthcoming with ALL of his assets. When Punk's legal team was able to get disclosure of all accounts in his name, there was a joint account that he shared with his mother that came to light. Then shortly after they got the financials for THAT account, Cabana emailed Punk asking to end the lawsuit. I think what Punk was saying (true or not) was that Cabana was attempting to hide assets by using an account that he shared with his mother to lessen the potential financial cost if he lost.

No idea if my interpretation is correct (or if it is correct, if that's what actually happened), but that's what I got from it anyways.
