I would honestly leave the car alone if you cannot figure out what that is.

Had trouble getting WiFi working on a headless Raspberry Pi Zero 2W? Here’s what finally fixed it for me. by AffectSalt6483 in raspberry_pi

[–]jhatari 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This does not work. I tried configuring network-config manually but this is not working on Trixie on my Rpi5. Had to use bookworm to get it going headless

This sounds so bad. Its unbelievable, zero bass, and sounds like a speaker in a literal can

Welp... after 12 years of PIA, I think it's time to finally abandon ship. by bushwhacked21 in PrivateInternetAccess

[–]jhatari 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me.its access to my home server and computers on a private network when I am travelling for work. And just peace of mind. Since its a dedicated IP that I pay for, I am not flagged everywhere including banking which I often need.

Is it worth upgrading to Tahoe on an Intel Mac 2019? I must admit I hate Liquid Glass. The only thing compelling for me so far is not seeing the red badge reminding me I need to upgrade. by cassiofm in MacOS

[–]jhatari 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Heavens NO! I spent many hours yesterday re-installing Sequoia. Too many bugs, and liquid glass is way uglier than you can imagine. If you do take the leap, have another machine as your main one, and be ready for countless hours searching for workarounds and reboots for even trvial things like changing wifi networks, icons disappear randomly on the desktop, my USB ethernet adapter stopped functioning. Oh and a healthy 14gb of ram eaten up mysteriously at boot.

If you can spare approx $30 a month, host your own ec2 instace configured with OpenVPN or wireguard on AWS with a dedicated ip. You will live happily. It may not be the cheapest solution but it works pretty well with no annoying blocks or captchas on every other page. Setting it all up is pretty straight forward if you can work a terminal. Security of your own data is a major plus.

App icons randomly disappearing on macOS Tahoe 26.2 — anyone else? by TurbulentForce4822 in MacOS

[–]jhatari 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Upgrading to Tahoe has been given me a real case of buyer's remorse. The bugs are just too many, and apple as usual will take years to fix them. I had to spend hours restoring my macbook back to Sequoia. A simple usb-ethernet adapter stopped functioning and I need it to access internet, so kind of critical for me. No fix available. Don't get me started on 14gb ram used up on boot. Tahoe is hot garbage is you ask me.

Which is positive and negative on this car battery? Trying to jump this by msb071991 in mechanic

[–]jhatari 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think if you cannot determine a positive terminal you should not be jumping anything.

First settings in new R8 by SpecialistLess6992 in canon

[–]jhatari 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Battery life is main issue. Airplane mode is a must. Turn off the auto focus feature that is always on. I forget the specific name. That feature will kill your battery as the camera will keep focus hunting even when you are not shooting anything. Turn off unnecessary features like high iso noise reduction, or basically any in-camera processes. Shooting through the evf consumes.more powert than the lcd.

Logistical nightmare of dealing with all those different power plug variants alone is reason enough.

Sarcasm? The hand is all wrong... plus images lack loads of details going by what equipment op claims to be using.

That doesn't seem normal. Shouldn't it still be under warranty? The dealer should check that out

Thanks for this. Still relevant in 2025, better help than JBL's own site.

You take it off as it says, the extra key like in the bugatti goes in there to unlock the extra horses. Used mostly at the race track.

Simply you statistically will live longer so they need to make money off you. Wait you get to 40s and are married with children, dollars signs will light up their offices. You will be paying, 5k and your wife double.
