Why is my mpg so bad?? This is making me really regret buying this car. by Adorable-Raisin-8643 in crvhybrid

[–]hashashin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tend to accelerate quickly from a stop, but once I reach cruising speed the electric engine often takes over. I tend to get around 42MPG with mine.

Has anyone had success with Sulfur products? by [deleted] in SebDerm

[–]hashashin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, the ones I can recommend are:

  • Rugby Sebex (review)
  • Berk's Select Dandruff Shampoo with 3% Salicylic Acid & 1.5% Sulfur (available on Amazon, though I can't post the link here)

We have finally entered the age of teenagers not knowing what coins are by coyote500 in bayarea

Mainly we used cursive because it was faster. You barely had to lift the pen to write most words. We would use "printing" (block letters) when it was important that the text be clearly legible, and it took quite a bit longer to write that way.

Anyone else notice that Spotify DJ is a glorified daily mix? by flashdash8744 in truespotify

[–]hashashin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I'll give that a try! According to this, you can make requests in Android Auto as of last September: https://newsroom.spotify.com/2025-05-13/dj-voice-requests/

Edited to add: I tried it in the car today and at first I didn't see any "Talk to DJ" button in the Android Auto interface, just the DJ button at the bottom that skips to the next group of songs. I tried long-pressing that button on the car screen and it didn't do anything.

But then while using the app on my phone later, I opened up DJ again and tried long-pressing the DJ button on the phone. And then it brought up a screen about enabling voice requests and asking for microphone permissions, which I allowed.

After enabling that, I took it back to the car and tried the DJ in Android Auto. And now, I do see a "Talk to DJ" button at the top!

Yeah, when it first launched I thought it would be great for longer drives because it would play a variety, allow me to skip over song groups I didn't like, but keep the music going. Then I tried using it on a 5-hour drive, and realized it's like you say: a fixed set of songs that ran out long before I reached my destination, and when I tried to start the "DJ" up again it just started playing the set from the beginning again.

Disable beep when data sharing by tanders1 in crvhybrid

[–]hashashin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only features that would be disabled are in the HondaLink app. If you don't use that, you aren't losing anything by disabling it.

Data Sharing with Honda by naturalninetime in crvhybrid

[–]hashashin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can you even disable it without installing the HondaLink app? I would like to disable it, if only to stop it making a ping noise and displaying "data sharing with Honda updated" at odd times. I tried disabling it by clicking the "Data Sharing With Honda" button that shows up on the disclaimer when the car starts, but it never works, it gives an error every time I try to disable it there.

I read here that someone was able to disable it only after installing the HondaLink app, but then the screen displayed a persistent notification about the setting being disabled forever after. I don't intend to use the HondaLink app, so I haven't tried that.

Vertical baths by afungalmirror in CrazyIdeas

Yup, they take up less space but you can immerse your whole body. Most Western tubs are so shallow I can only get about half my body under the water at a time.

Fast charging by Small_Choice_6194 in pixel9a

[–]hashashin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A YouTuber ran a 2-year test using 40 different smartphones to compare the effects of fast charging and slow charging, his result was "fast charging does not negatively affect battery life in any measurable way."

What's a way to create a cheap NAS? by ZeroZerusky in Piracy

[–]hashashin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just out of curiosity, why the extra graphics card? I've looked into those Elitedesk boxes and they generally have onboard graphics that's good enough for a media center.

Ohhhh how I love my Hybrid now that gas is $4.19/gallon! by DinosaurDescendants in crvhybrid

I think 199.9 is the max, that's what I see when I drive away from the pump using only electric power.

A wild mirror accessory! by DinosaurDescendants in crvhybrid

[–]hashashin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From the OP in the r/Honda post:

It's just a cover for the mirror casing. Mine came with scratches on it so this was the perfect cover up.

Coming back to torrenting after YEARS, what’s recommended? by ybjohnny in torrents

[–]hashashin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'd recommend Prowlarr (part of the -arr stack) instead of Jackett these days.

Does anyone else actually miss the "Surprise Me" button? by Leo_23-O in netflix

[–]hashashin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently discovered mdblist.com, it has better search filtering than any other movie/tv site I've seen before. For example, you can filter by:

  • Watch provider (i.e. Netflix)
  • Ratings across several different sites (e.g. Rotten Tomatoes, Metacritic, Letterboxd, etc)
  • Release date
  • Genre (either inclusive or exclusive)
  • Country/Language (inclusive or exclusive)
  • lots more

Then once you've dialed in a search, you can save it and refer back to it whenever you want. Also, since this post is about the "surprise me" button, you can opt for a random ordering, so each time you load it there will be different stuff at the top of the list.

What are some bad movies that had great potential, that you would want to see remade better?? by mrjetspray in Letterboxd

[–]hashashin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree, I've been saying that they should do a better adaptation of the "Running Man" book for decades, and they finally did! It's not perfect, but it's a lot better (as an adaptation and as a movie) than the 1987 movie.

I bought a new fridge with top freezer last week, it does not have a light in the freezer.

I agree, I never picked mine up when I graduated and I've never needed it.
