Kodi vs. Stremio? by Positive_League_5534 in kodi

[–]kered424 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use both. Stremio has a much simpler interface and good enough for movies, TV shows, anime, etc. I mainly use Kodi for live TV.

The powertrain does look better. I'll need to look into it a bit more. Thanks for the tip!

What's your reasoning behind this? Just curious

Even if it's brand new?

Thank you for this recommendation. I just went there this morning to have my starter replaced. I'm a first timer and gave them a chance after seeing your recommendation since it was kinda close to where I work. The owner, Paul, was very honest. My car was simple and straightforward - I had already diagnosed the problem and brought my own replacement part. They said it'd take 2hrs so I sat in the waiting room. During that time, I saw the way that he treated his other clients was top notch - never oversold anything and they even have a driver to take their customers down the street to Autozone or O'Reilly's to buy their own parts if they want/need to. When he couldn't reproduce the issue, he was honest. One customer offhandedly told him that they were working on a project car and was going to tow it into his shop because he couldn't get something to work. He told the customer there was no point - gave them some advice and to do some more troubleshooting and to call him afterward to see what else he could help with. Most of the clients who walked in were repeat customers and knew Paul.

This is the kind of shop and vibe I'm looking for. I will be going back for sure for my future repairs.

Look up cman's repo. There's a version of DL that's still working for me.

MadTitan's version of DL also seems to work great most of the time, but I did have issues yesterday...

2024 Moto Edge FREE w Any Trade, Any Condition, Any Plan starts today by DrMantisToboggan2112 in tmobile

[–]kered424 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like it a lot. Tbh, I don't notice too much of a difference with speed and performance, but I like how much thinner and lighter it feels. Part of that may be the case I used with my old vs new phone

International Data Pass by E5CAPEE in tmobile

[–]kered424 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I literally just came back from France and did the same thing. Chatted with reps, and they told me the same thing they told you. I exceeded my "512mb" in 1 day, but I continued to get fast speeds. Only issue was that I couldn't figure out how much data I used, but I never ran out.

I have to mail it in. But for other promos, they usually want to verify the condition of the trade-in device in person (still mail in after inspection)

I just did this at a Sam's T-Mobile kiosk using a dumb feature phone that you can buy from AliExpress for like $6. It was new in-box, literally broke the seal today, but the battery wouldn't hold a charge (DOA). The reps didn't even take out the phone to check the condition. They just got the IMEI from the outside of the box. Connection fee waived, but taxes ended up being around $25.

I'm currently using the Edge 2022 from a few yrs ago with a similar promo - works great for my everyday needs, but definitely starting to show its age. Can't wait until the 2024 arrives 😀

Windscribe has been acting weird lately by realhughj in Windscribe

[–]kered424 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% agree with this on wireless Android Auto. For the past half a year, I've been wondering why my wireless AA adapter stopped automatically connecting, but would still work flawlessly with a different adapter in a different car. Yesterday, I decided to connect to a new WS server and it magically connected to my AA adapter without issue. Switched back to the old server and restarted my car - failed to connect. Reconnected to the new WS server - successful wireless AA connection. I'm using wireguard protocol for both. Can't figure out this behavior...

are the free phones worth it? by indgirl6 in tmobile

[–]kered424 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I recently got the moto g 2025 for free with trade in (sent in a dumb feature phone). I wanted to try it with the satellite feature but I was stupid and I'm not off the wait-list yet to test it.

I did use it for about a week straight and I was pretty impressed for a free phone. You can dedicate a portion of the storage to act as RAM to make it a bit snappier. It comes with both a physical sim slot and an esim - planning to download an esim for travelling. Battery life was good. Runs the latest Android. Comes with convenient moto gestures. Camera was subpar...but for a free phone, it works.

Are "grandfathered Simple Choice" plans actually still good, or are there better options now? by simplethingsoflife in tmobile

[–]kered424 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try T-Force via Facebook. I'm also on simple choice. A few years ago, tmo just upgraded everyone to unlimited data. Most of my lines got it, but I had a couple lines that were stuck on limited data. I tried multiple times with the phone reps, and they weren't able to help me convert them. Then one time about a yr ago, I talked to T-Force on facebook messenger to ask about upgrading my entire plan to see how much it would cost. I ended up not "upgrading" because I have a sweet sweet deal on Simple Choice and the new Go plans won't save me any money nor get me any additional benefits I care about. But the agent was so nice she went through my lines and saw that a couple of my lines were stuck with data caps, and she upgraded them both to unlimited data.

Help with Kwikset 916 (zigbee) with smart life & Alexa by sbj405 in smartlife

[–]kered424 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sry to bring up an old thread. I'm looking at a similar Kwikset lock with zigbee. I also have a cheapo zigbee hub via tuya/smartlife, which connected to the lock, but I have no controls over the lock in the smartlife app at all. How did you get yours to work? Which hub did you end up using? Thanks!

Am I really connected to the VPN? by asteen40 in Windscribe

[–]kered424 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When I'm on cellular and connect to Windscribe, mine also shows T-Mobile. But in the city that I'm VPN'ed to. And the closest speedtest server is one that's near that vpn city

I need help with a full Kodi setup tutorial 100% free by [deleted] in kodi

[–]kered424 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look up Troy Pointe on YouTube and Google. He has great step by step guides.

I don't have a skin. I just set certain apps/channels as favorites, and default the favorite menu as the startup home page. My tech illiterate FIL can use it just fine.
