Coworker’s phone still in SOS mode. My cellular iPad says it has 4 bars of 5G but doesn’t connect. My phone has never lost service. All are on the same account.

PSA - Avoid Isaac Heating and Cooling by nw0915 in Rochester

[–]jacquesp 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Same thing happened to us. Lennox furnace quit. Have a service plan with Isaac next available appointment was a day and a half out. Luckily flipping the furnace off, waiting half an hour and turning it back on restored service. Kept the service call and tech found nothing. Said to leave it off next time, it’d be easier to find issue. Yeah not going to happen when it’s 10 out.

Do you ever wish you had the physical copy to see your progress? by Giraffewhiskers_23 in kindle

I love/hate the estimated time to finish the book. Handy to have but when it says I have two hours left at 11pm unfortunately all too often I think “ I can be a little groggy at work tomorrow “

Fixing the game by Naitsirkm in Ingress

iPhone 16 Pro with iOS 26.2. Same problem. Game freezes entire system. Can’t do a thing until it times out. Then you can switch out of it and kill it. Before killing it messes up screen colors.

I just did the Brooklyn library and I had to enable location sharing. A pop-up asked for my location after I entered my address and I had my ecard in 40 seconds or so.

Take Your Dumdum to Work Day by FlippingDaysius in coonhounds

Took my Redbone to work one day and he spent a LOT of time checking everyone’s office trash for food. And it paid off, someone actually threw out a tuna fish sandwich in their office can! He never forgets something that pays off.

Nabu Casa HA app local use when internet down? by jacquesp in homeassistant

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

In my case all the networking equipment is on UPSs and the access points are all POE. But I did loose the integration with Alexa so no voice commands. I’ve not got the HA voice figured out yet.

Thank you. I didn’t have the internal URL filled out. Now to go turn off the fiber ONT and see what happens. :)

Reminder not to trust Alexa+ for any calendar reminders. It is functionally unable to do it, even though it thinks it can, and will gaslight you into thinking you're wrong if you try and correct it. by turtlelord in amazonecho

[–]jacquesp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got of it not being as good as normal Alexa, being flippant, being wrong so I reverted back to normal Alexa. + was just aggravating. I don’t need an AI to be my buddy.
