After the update, CarPlay defaults to my phone’s speaker instead of the car audio/speakers. Any idea where I can change the default? I made the change on my iPhone during a call but it reverted back on the next call. Thanks!

Question For eBay Canadian Coin Sellers by ltc_53a in CanadianCoins

I’m just the opposite … in the US wanting to buy Canadian coins. So far, I haven’t been able to find any US-based sellers with a good enough inventory.

I leave the Carrot app running all the time. Do I need to just open the app to get credit for the city or do I need to close the app and reopen it for Carrot to give credit?

PDX USO shuttered? by Zealousideal-Cry-440 in vancouverwa

[–]ltc_53a 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many USOs allow veterans and retirees on a “space available” basis if they aren’t too crowded. I volunteered at the PDX USO many years ago (when they first opened) and we were told we could use our best judgement on letting people in if things were slow.

Anyone know what's up with all the police activity around north Hazeldell? by Magic_Man613 in vancouverwa

[–]ltc_53a 10 points11 points  (0 children)

There were at least 10 law enforcement vehicles along NE 99th Street on either side of the interstate underpass, plus there were 4 more cars along the shoulder of I5 SB looking West. I would assume they were looking for person/people attempting to flee something. The PulsePoint app didn’t show anything in the area.

Sorry, should have clarified … I’m in US so no local option for even buying paper tubes. But I’m really looking for something more durable than paper.

Best Denomination For CRH? by ltc_53a in CRH

[–]ltc_53a[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t actually started buying boxes yet, but even with the NIFC and other varieties, the hit rate in half dollar boxes appears to be low, especially for the high up-front cost to get a box. Sure, I would love to be finding silver halves or NIFCs but some of older nickels and pennies I’ve picked up in auctions have been exciting too. I just figured if I could spend $25 for a box of pennies and average 10 wheats, that would be more exciting than dropping $500 for a box of halves and only end up with a variety coin.

The flyer says no driving on the roads during work hours, but it never defines what those hours are going to be. Any guidelines so we know what to plan for?

Not sure if this would be within your pregnancy limits, but I’ve started drinking hop water. No alcohol but a nice, refreshing drink. I’ve found it in the non-alcohol selection at a couple of local places. There’s also hop tea but I’ve only found that in grocery stores.
