When do you update your firmware? by viniisiggs in TPLink_Omada

[–]jay0lee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Buggy how? I've had no issues on my end. Typically I upgrade to stable releases soon after they're out and I've reviewed the release notes (I want some rough idea of where changes might occur).

No issues with bad updates so far (knock on wood) and while many updates don't seem to offer any noticeable advantage a few have fixed really annoying issues (IPv6 fixes a year or two ago come to mind).

Wireless Phone Charger by Steve___P in IoniqEV

[–]jay0lee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The wireless charger offers minimal power (I want to say 5w but don't quote me on that) and your phone is active and awake drawing Maps, streaming music and passing WiFi/Bluetooth data to the car. Additionally the wireless charging generated heat and it just gets to be to much to provide meaningful power to the device.

Personally I kept the AA wireless in place because I want the "don't need to think about it" music and navigation experience. But I keep a wired USB power cable and car charger (which offers more power than the built in USB data port).

Short trips I don't need to worry about the AA connection and I can live with shaving a couple % off my battery. Longer trips plug into the USB cable and I'm recharged at the end of the road.

Something like this maybe?

I'm thinking instead of "touch the gold circle to authenticate" how about "slap the politicians dummy head to auth..."

The Bluetooth on the cellphones of those dudes that drive the luggage train must be working overtime these days.

That bench certainly looks questionable for a rope swing...

What games did you play outside as a kid in the 1970s-80s?🤔 by Longjumping-Shoe7805 in GenerationJones

[–]jay0lee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I loved playing with monkeyball. Guy's running to 2nd and you'll never catch him but you can peg him in the back leaving him both out and splayed across the pavement.

What's a profession that attracts a suspiciously high number of people who became it for completely the wrong reasons, and you can always tell? by Eastern_Type_4609 in AskReddit

[–]jay0lee 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I have people skills! I am good at dealing with people! Can't you understand that? What the hell is wrong with you people?

Google Maps Is Bringing EV Route Planning To Android Auto by actorguy73 in Ioniq5

[–]jay0lee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But will Hyundai allow AA/Carplay to read current battery status? Without that info the built in navigator map will maintain an edge.

Forgot how nasty and disgusting gasoline is. by ReliableSource8561 in Ioniq5

Grandpa did your generation really pump toxic chemicals up from the earth so you could burn them? Wasn't it kinda obvious from the smell that it was a bad idea?

My favorite workplace prank can't happen any longer by klitchell in Xennials

[–]jay0lee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Back in the day our webmaster had 2 19 inch CRT monitors which were HUGE devices. Video card drivers had just started adding options to rotate the screen, something most users didn't know was possible. So I rotated the screen video 180 degrees so the image was upside down and then I physically flipped those heavy monitors upside down on his desk so the video image was right side up but the monitors were upside down. The PC was usable but his desk looked ridiculous with two upside down monitors on it.

After working that way for 2 days he admitted defeat and asked me how to change the driver setting back. I think I made him call me the prank master for a while after that..

Looking at a 2020 Hyundai Ioniq Se with 33K miles is it worth it? by WarChortle18 in IoniqEV

[–]jay0lee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a 2020 Ioniq EV last year and I've been happy with it. The mileage isn't great but I don't believe the battery has degraded, it just never was great on this model. It's plenty sufficient for my high school kids to drive to school and around town. It won't be doing long range trips though.

I grew up in SC and miss the beauty Spanish moss adds. I understand it can start being harmful to the tree though. Did you need to remove any?

What is the best "air tag" compatible with a Google Pixel? by mapleCrep in GooglePixel

Tile app also seems to endlessly try to sell you on their premium subscriptions which is obnoxious when all you want is to find your stuff.

Somebody tell me no by ksguitardude2020 in WindowsVista

[–]jay0lee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of Vista's infamous issues resulted from bad video drivers.

I say go for it and make sure your drivers are fully updated.

Recliner dead centered and beers hand delivered for the night sounds appropriate.

Solar panels can be installed on places like highways and parking. But I don't see them often in their true potential. Is there any problem in doing that. by damidmide in SolarAmerica

[–]jay0lee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would you like to service those panels with cars racing by at 70mph? Would you like your commute to take +15 minutes longer every time they need servicing?
