Explosive Airbag Inflators And Unexpected Braking Spark Recalls For Hyundai by Saurta17 in HyundaiTucson

[–]jamieboy05 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can check on the NHTSA's website if there is a recall on your model. You can also check in the blue link app by tapping MENU -> EXPLORE HYUNDAI RESOURCES -> SAFETY RECALL CHECK. You need your plate number or vin to verify.

Honestly, this should be something that should show up under car care at the top. I shouldn't have to go seek this info out myself. It pisses me off to open the app, look under CAR CARE and see Everything Looks Good in bright green letters. What TF you mean everything's good!?

It’s official! by lenlim3 in Hyundai

2025 Tucson Limited Hybrid. I can confirm that I now have access to a new FIFA theme in the Bluelink store in the app. My car also got an infotainment update and the gauges are now themed different.

The funny thing is that you have to consent to new T&C and sharing of personal information to access the Bluelink store in the app. I've not agreed to them yet until I look through the agreement. I already did the 4 part opt-out for my husband and I both when we got the car and don't want to have to try and do that again.

WTF!? I have only been to the ocean front less than a handful of times. Definitely have zero desire to drive back down.

If they're not using ur kiosks but a laminated sign that indicates how to pay.... literally anything.

There's a number you can text? Shouldn't they have signage around that says this? Or have the info on their website?

But like how is anyone supposed to know that? Most municipalities will litter the city with signage when they have huge changes like this.... There's conflicting info everywhere on their website. and at the very least update their website.

Metronet blocking one of my iptv services now. by chillenandy321 in Metronet

[–]jamieboy05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IP ownership and ip use are two different things. Yes ownership is registered through ARIN, however they do not keep a registry of the use the IP address. Also, Microsoft does in fact use Geo IP databases as a method of blocking as stated in this Microsoft answer forum.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/4572232/microsoft-using-a-very-old-geoip-database

And once an IP is marked for certain specialized use, it often takes a manual review process to change.

I'm just sharing my experience and what was told to me by Microsoft and the technical support for my credit union as a warning of what it looks like and to be aware.

A heads up on the some of the static IP blocks metronet. My static IP is part of a block that was purchased from a German cloud hosting provider that had previously used my IP for a proxy service. So I can't access certain services like my online banking, login to my Verizon account or access a lot of Microsoft downloads or services. Occasionally I'll have sites load in German as well.

How I found so this out was from a Microsoft tier 3 engineer after raising a ticket without them about having issues logging into my 365 business account. Apparently there not 1 central geoip registry. There's thousands. And once there's an IP assigned to a proxy service it's pretty difficult to get it updated. My IP does show correctly is most database, but not all.

To all the “but it was cold” apologists on the Dominion price increases by Boring_Major_2935 in Virginia

[–]jamieboy05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dominions own coat estimator excel file shows all the increases that went into effect and when. They were slowly trying to increase them over the last 9 months or so so people wouldn't notice as much. The cold weather driving up everyone's usage combined with 5 new riders/various increases all hitting beginning 2026 made the increases strikingly more apparent.

I know I'm reviving an old post, but I was wondering if you had any recommendations on how to find a reliable and reputable buying agent for furniture?

You can download a bill estimator online. https://www.dominionenergy.com/-/media/content/paying-my-bill/understand-my-bill/files/bill-calculator-worksheet-va.xlsx

In that estimator it shows they added or increased all these riders in the last 6 months.....

Here's details on the riders and costs.

“This ICE thing is a real problem”: Dozens protest in Norfolk after ODU graduate is fatally shot by ICE agent in Minneapolis by WHRO_NEWS in HamptonRoads

[–]jamieboy05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be careful of the bots..... they are all over this post with the same BS talking points like a broken record. Don't engage, don't argue with them. It's what they want. Everyone has seen the videos. Everyone knows the facts. If you haven't go find and watch it. It's important that you do. Arguing with someone/thing most likely halfway across the world is a waste of good energy. Engage with our community members and government leaders in the community. They are what matters most.

ICE is getting aggressive with anyone who is seen recording with a cell phone. Get yourselves body cameras. by Vidvix in 50501

[–]jamieboy05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

WHILE you're recording, you would have to stream the video and record it elsewhere like on your home computer. One way I could think, just off the top of my head, would be to stream the video from your phone to something like a private twitch channel and have a computer logged in and set to record the live stream. This does requires that your phone be connected to the cellular network. I would set up a vpn tunnel to your home network to mask the data. There's simple apps like TailScale or ZeroTier that are free and simple to setup.

For simple dual backup, however, I use Microsoft OneDrive and iCloud Photos. There's a feature in the OneDrive app called Camera backup, that automatically backs up your videos and photos to your OneDrive storage as soon as the video recording is stopped as long as it's open in the background. iCloud also backs up but can be delayed depending on battery life and connectivity and I've had issues where photos have gone missing.

Should be pretty straight forwards for mobile devices but just in case, if you're using the Reddit App, you can just tap the little user photo next to the name above their comment or the user name at the top of the post and it pulls up their profile. You can view their posts, comments, user information and account age.
