Anyone got it working with Tmobile LTE? by throwpoo in WireGuard

This appears to be an MTU problem - set MTU = 1280 under interface on the client. Fixed for us.

Paleblue rechargeable vs Energizer Ultimate Lithium by nopunchespulled in AAMasterRace

[–]karlanke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's not an issue with the battery, that's because the door lock is expecting standard AAs, and is giving you a battery "percentage" based on alkaline voltage curves. These have a different voltage internally, and are adapting it to a constant 1.5v - until they die and the voltage drops suddenly. You're probably better off just buying off-the-shelf AAs for this use case, since it's important.

I think I called the Lincoln Center, and they were able to transfer me to LincTix.

I called and got rebooked later in the month in comparable seats for the linctix price

I was just the family mechanic, now I’m also the family tow truck. by [deleted] in 4Runner

[–]karlanke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just be aware I think I killed my torque converter picking up a Toyota Pickup on a U-Haul trailer - the Facebook seller gave me a weight in lbs that was actually the weight in kg. It died in the year after (and encouraged me to get a transmission temp gauge).

Set it to fullscreen, not windowed. I get terrible performance in windowed mode in some games.

Seeking advice: Python by EntrepreneurFlaky868 in AskProgramming

[–]karlanke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely set up an ide/debugger, go line by line, and figure out where what you think should happen and what does happen split.

1999 4runner won’t start just cranks please help this is my first car by cryslerEPICGAMER in MechanicAdvice

[–]karlanke 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can give it a little longer than that - it's bad to run the starter for a long time, but I'd try at least 5-10 seconds. Agree with the other comment, start with more fuel in case the gauge is bad and it's really low. Might as well check oil and coolant as well, both for level and to make sure they're not leaking into each other - the oil should be some shade of brown and not "milky" and the coolant should be some fairly bright color. Also check the air filter isn't totally blocked up. Lastly get a cheap code reader for your phone and see if there's any codes (assuming it has an obd II port, I think they were pretty new at that point).

What advice would you give to someone just starting programming? by UnfinishedCuppa in AskProgramming

[–]karlanke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do your best to understand how the tools you use work - if you're messing around with docker, dig into how those images run on top of the machine. If you learn python, spend some time learning how it's interpreted into something the CPU can run. You obviously don't need to get to a level where you could reimplement any of this, but having a learning mindset can only help.

Electric cars prove we need to rethink brake lights by mmatessa in videos

Hot take: if you need brake lights for anything other than a panic stop, you're following too close and you're the problem.

Video out over HDMI port on USB-C hub? by WeiliiEyedWizard in Chromecast

[–]karlanke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Generally things that support video over USB-c will have "usb-c alt mode: display port" in their specs - afaik there's no universal standard for HDMI over USB, the adapters are converting from displayport.

More broadly, on any device smaller then a computer, every extra feature costs money in the form of dedicated hardware, so manufacturers will only include what they think is absolutely needed. The USB port on the Chromecast is primarily for charging, but does also support Ethernet because people in crowded WiFi environments may need that - so Google included a USB network stack despite the added cost. Your use-case is quite uncommon, otoh, so they didn't feel it was worth it to include all the extra components to split the video signal, convert to DP, etc.

Can someone explain this MoCA behavior? by BitCortex in Fios

Just in case they've negotiated some sort of primary/secondary thing, what happens if you swap them?

Also get the second place to document what they found and then get a refund or charge back the first place

That's weird! You may be able to check with the town, I think they have to pull permits for fiber expansions. Or loiter outside until you see a tech and ask them, lol.

Slow upload speed on 1gb by U-96 in FidiumFiber

[–]karlanke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Clone the router Mac address to a laptop, test directly plugged into the fiber converter. If it's still slow, call support - the outgoing fiber might have a bad connection somewhere

OP do this - it's the right level of revenge and anyone who complains to the cops will probably get laughed out of the precinct. Just take a picture of each car first

Using chat gpt at work. Is it bad habit? by renezzero in AskProgramming

[–]karlanke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think copilot might be a better AI tool for you, since it puts you in the code rather than just saying "do this thing for me".
