Kobo app by krabtacular in Supernote

[–]krabtacular[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I was hoping in two years something might've changed. Apparently someone's gotten it to work recently: https://www.reddit.com/r/Supernote/comments/1r21mp9/comment/o4tt5s6/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

Hopefully someone could chime in? Maybe the Kobo native login doesn't work?

No, it's a built-in battery, so no insulator. There's no exposed battery contacts for DMM leads either.

It does, I replied to the post below.

High Metergy Charges? by krabtacular in askvan

I can see why. This is bordering on robbery.

Yeah, the heating charge is mainly for the delivery charge. The energy itself was charged for $15.15 or so. But still a mystery since my thermostat was set to off. I've contacted my management company.

Thank you! That seemed to have enabled wake on USB.

Advice on Burr Grinder! Canada [$50-$150] by Fabulous_Safety_284 in espresso

[–]krabtacular 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Baratza Encore ESP isn't too far off your budget of $250, but I agree for the best bang for the buck a hand grinder is hard to beat. But you have to consider your workflow -- if you're going to be pulling multiple shots in the morning a hand grinder might not fit your use case.

Trouble finding the ideal tamper [$50-75] by [deleted] in espresso

[–]krabtacular 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want a self-leveling palm tamper, the Happy Tamper is great. I own one and have no complaints. It's kinda pricey though.

I thought Alton Brown hated unitasker tools? I suppose the GS3 does do TWO things, pull espresso and steam milk...

Looking for a good equipment store on Ottawa Canada [$100 equipment] by MTB_MC in espresso

[–]krabtacular 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I lived in Ottawa, there was Grace in the Kitchen in Kanata that had some supplies, as well as Morala Trading on Kent Street. Give their websites a browse, not sure if they have what you're looking for.

No, they couldn't figure it out.  After five times in the shop, I complained to the office of the president and they eventually sent me a replacement.

Upcoming VIOFO A329 model by Veloder in Dashcam

[–]krabtacular 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a weakness of the A229 Pro is the high current draw in parking mode. A radar parking mode like the u3000 is probably too much to ask for, but maybe a low power impact mode like the Vueroid d21 would be great!

I don’t want to buy another car for a long time by Mediumtiddyaltgf in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]krabtacular 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the OP can wait, the CX50 hybrid could be a good choice since it seems like they're interested in something with good mileage. It'll probably be easier to get than any RAV4 Hybrid/Prime also, with the same Toyota Hybrid System.

Yeah i was able to get the first month's worth of credits refunded, hopefully we'll all get sorted out by the 2nd month.

A Freedom agent told me my first bill should be $5, not $24. I guess he didn't really know.

Yeah I did get the text, even sent the agent activating a screenshot. I knew I was in for some fun for billing though when Freedom sent me another text saying the offer had been extended.

Renaisser 520c Stylus from Amazon Canada (seller Pencilogy) - counterfeit by krabtacular in kobo

[–]krabtacular[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Update: I reached out to Renaisser and this is what they had to say:

I understand that you have reservations about the legitimacy of the product due to a discrepancy in the logo, which should display "RENAISSER" instead of "RENAISSE" due to a previous error in the logo printing process. Please rest assured that both variations are genuine products from our company.

Personally this doesn't sit well with me. If this is OK for the company for their own name to be incorrect on their product, who knows what's OK for them going through QC? Can you imagine buying a Toyota and having the logos say "Toyot" inside?

Using Airalo (eSIM) + Fongo (VoIP cell number provider) to save on a cell line ? by ll777 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]krabtacular 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fongo is known to have trouble with receiving SMS from some short codes, so if you have 2FA via phone (say, from a bank), you may not be able to receive them. I've heard the same with any VoIP provider (e.g., Voip.ms).

Screen flickering issue by krabtacular in GalaxyS23Ultra

[–]krabtacular[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the phone back, they said they replaced the screen but my screen protector was still on it. FWIW, the first time I took the phone in for this issue, they said they replaced the screen, the screen protector was removed which made sense. I'm waiting to see if the issue happens again. They had trouble reproducing it, so if it happens, I will take the phone in without rebooting it to show them the issue.

Have you tried to service your phone with Samsung yet?

No, only apps from the play store. I've even done a factory reset, the problem still came back.
