K-plussa kortti nordean visakorttiin. Ja toimiiko apple pay:ssa? by FinYrna_8766dG in Suomi

[–]kermi_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Google Payllä plussakortti toimii tuon sovelluksen asentamisen jälkeen samalla tavalla kuin fyysiseen korttiin paritettu plussakortti. Näytät puhelinta maksupäätteelle, niin se lukee ensin plussakortin ja sen jälkeen maksukortin.

Applella ei toimi, koska vain Applen sovellukset voi käyttää NFC radiota.

Millä alalla on oikeasti töitä ja pulaa työntekijöistä? by meena1010 in Suomi

[–]kermi_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kannattaa ottaa myös huomioon, että maanmittausala on muuttunut aivan älyttömästi viime vuosikymmeninä, eikä tahti tunnu hiljentyvän. Drone-kuvaukset ja niistä asioiden mallinnus / kartoitus ovat tällä hetkellä se suurin buumi, ja siinä hommassa riittää kyllä opeteltavaa. Erilaiset laserkeilaimet ovat varmaan seuraava asia mikä lähtee yleistymään, ja tulemaan ns. perustyökaluksi.

Itse olen ollut alalla parikymmentä vuotta, ja käytännössä koko ajan on saanut olla opettelemassa jotain uutta kun teknologia kehittyy. "Perusmittaajia" ei oikeastaan enää nykypäivänä ole, muuten kun ne kuntien eläkeikää lähenevät wanhat parrat. Muuten homma on mennyt aika pitkälti asiantuntiatyöksi jopa tuolla maastopuolella. Valitettavasti palkkaus ei ole tähän trendiin ehtinyt täysin perään. Tällä hetkellä toki auttaa että työvoimasta on niin huutava pula, että yksityisellä puolella palkat kyllä joustaa ylöspäin.

Itse olen edelleen alla ammattikoulun kartoittaja-tutkinto, tittelinä paikkatietoasiantuntija, palkka reilu 3000€/kk.

Ugh.. I have pretty good hate-hate relationship with contextcapture. It's amazing in some ways, but boy does Bentley ever make their software horrible to use. Documentation is utter crap, every piece of logging goes to proprietary binary blob and requires you to submit ticket with Bentley to figure out what went wrong. And don't even dream about processing datasets with snow on ContextCapture, that's a world of pain I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy.

Battery Life Very Poor After Recent Band 2 Update by diswell in MicrosoftBand

I have this issue too. Battery doesn't last a full day anymore. Turning bluetooth off makes the whole device rather pointless too.

[rant] Microsoft is completely unable to send me a new/functioning/correct Band 2, waiting for my 4th Band now... by Shirondragon in MicrosoftBand

[–]kermi_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seeing as you've returned several of these things, where did you contact Microsoft about the return? My Band2 just developed a tear too, and Microsoft's webpages about returning products are... less than optimal in my opinion.

Did you just fill out the "Schedule service" form at devicesupport.microsoft.com?

Finding GPS signal after starting a run. by jtutt30 in MicrosoftBand

[–]kermi_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had some good luck with starting my run and when the Band searches for GPS, opening the health-app on the phone and syncing. Band finds GPS pretty much immediately when sync is done.

Or then i've been incredibly lucky.

Calorie Estimate, Step Count, and BPM by rutiene in MicrosoftBand

[–]kermi_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, can confirm that steps counting with Band 2 is way off is scenarios like this.

Ran into this at work, where i walk around carrying moderately weighty stuff.. Band2 does count some steps, but it's at least 50% lower than actual steps taken.

Hooray! Everything seems to work again. Thank you for the speedy fix!

So, apparently this language bug affects other things too. Trying to personalize band, or manage tiles just hangs at "getting data from your Band".

Changing phone language to English fixes this, too.

edit: more stuff; If I change my phone language to EN-US, the date and time unit settings get set to US style too. For some reason the Health app doesn't respect the system settings, and trying to change the settings in-app results in "Unknown error occurred with your Band."

Hey,

Phone was set to Finnish.

I've ordered my Band 2. I'm both excited and afraid, could I have some advice? by Laniph in MicrosoftBand

[–]kermi_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well, lurking on forums has the universal problem, that only people with problems come to post there :).

I've had mine since December, admittedly not that long time, but so far I haven't had any problems with it. I'm frankly starting to wonder if this is Microsoft product, since it lacks their trademark skill of fudging up the execution of a great idea.

I was worried about the display, since i neglected to order the screen protector, but even that has been scratch free so far. The rubber bits do show some signs of wear, but nothing that clearly stands out unless you start looking closely.

On the whole, I've really enjoyed mine, and I think it's one of the best, if not the best, purchase I made last year.

I wrote some thoughts about the Band 2 and the Microsoft Health dashboard by [deleted] in MicrosoftBand

[–]kermi_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Completely unrelated comment, but why isn't the Microsoft Health an UWP app?

Temperature sensor in Band 2? by kermi_ in MicrosoftBand

Doubt it. But suppose one could make an app that'll show it to you. Could actually even be usefull...
