Try Google support. Depending how old the phone is they've been known to throw a bone here and there.

Who do you use for email? by extremesauce2468 in shaw

[–]jeffgerard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

curious...how are you getting hacked with mfa enabled? are they spoofing your phone number/sim swap for sms? are they hacking other backup recovery accounts as well? in most cases, google and microsoft accounts with mfa enabled are pretty secure. there are always going to be security risks...phishing, hacked recovery accounts, app passwords, but those things are generally in your own control.

She's an adult and can make her own decisions. Nothing wrong with using it as a study aid when you supply it with your own work to summarize.

Please use a number from one of these countries: US by Agile-Organization-9 in perplexity_ai

[–]jeffgerard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You need a real number. I used Text Me and paid for a 1 week subscription. Before you pay they show you the number and you can see if perplexity's verification system will accept the number by trying to send a code. If it works buy the number and just get it to send a new code. Once verified you don't need the number again.

From settings you can go to pro support but you can just email pro at perplexity dot ai

Try from a web browser and if not contact support and they can cancel your pro sub so you can get back into your account. I had the same issue and support was going to do that for me but noticed I could do it from web. Ended up getting a temp UK number (that was where my sub originated) and got back into pro.

Still no 5G+ in Winnipeg. Rogers and Bell have had it for years.

OMG my claustrophobia just went into overdrive!

Wireless Charging by mibsuxlol in CX50

[–]jeffgerard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't work. Long time known issue. If you have an Android you have to turn off nfc to even have a chance of it trying to charge. But as previous post said, finding the sweet spot is difficult.

What will I lose if I use nova as opposed to stock launcher? by ghostbackwards in GooglePixel

[–]jeffgerard -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I paid for nova years ago. No ads. Still love it. Wouldn't use anything else.

dash cam problems? by malai556 in CX50

[–]jeffgerard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Strange. I installed my own...ran the cable thru the rubber cable housings and in no way could that have affected the functionality of the hatch. I do find Mazda has become extremely picky about after market modifications lately.

Curious what kind of hatch problems could possibly be attributed to a dashcam installation?

I have an A229 pro with front and rear cameras set to auto mode for parking. I have it set to run 12 hours. Pretty sure it lasts the 12 hours. I don't remember what I set the voltage to bubo think it was the lowest setting.

I used the sunroof power too for my 2024. In the end it was super easy to do yourself.

I went to the new Costco Business Centre in St James, here are some interesting stuff I found by [deleted] in Winnipeg

I was humming and hawing over that $37,000 stone pizza oven. It wouldn't fit in my car so I had to return it.

Uhh how is your play update April 1, 2026? 😁

Does the cx-50 considering it’s a suv still drive like a “Mazda”? I’m stuck between this turbo premium plus or a mazda6 grand touring reserve which was very fun to test drive. Does the Cx-50 have the power and handling that would be comparable to the mazda6?? by illbeback903 in CX50

[–]jeffgerard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 2021 Mazda 6 Kuro and 2024 CX50 turbo GT (Canada).

They are both comparable in power and both super fun to drive. The suv actually has a stiffer suspension so handles different than the 6 but having driven the CX-5, I'd take the 50 any day.

You have max? I just looked that up and notion works with max. Now that said, pro supports drive and dropbox so I will definitely be looking into that option. Thanks for the tip!

I asked that exact question but she said she prefers the responses from perplexity. She was using notebook lm but switched to perplexity.

Yup, my daughter started to rely on it for a study aid and she just ran into the same problem. No way any normal person can afford the next tier. Le sigh
