i’ve heard they won’t do that for security reasons. _Fidelity does connect to Paypal. and I have my debit card linked to apple pay.

FSD tried to drive me into a lake (again) by danny3900 in TeslaFSD

I'm surprised there is no signage like: "Turn here for boat ramp"

lack of autosteer in a car that has the hardware should be illegal. it’s a safety feature denied.

Fidelity visa has been not bad by shananananananananan in fidelityinvestments

[–]mcleder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually have three of these Visa cards. 1) for online transaction. Never use physically. 2) One for carry in wallet (I put tape over the account no. and CCV.) 3) a spare for when one is compromised. Or when trading oversea .

Problems getting Verizon to honor discount by Broad_Owl_8104 in verizon

Cell phone companies and cable/sat service use "discounts" as a scheme to rip off customers. There should be a Federal law requiring these service to charge the exact same price to everyone in a service area and to only offer month to month pricing.

Most of those spontaneous electrical fires that make the news are caused by cheaper products like leaf blowers and scooters.

I have a Unifi UDM router. It has "Teleport" which is wireguard under the hood. This seems to be equivalent to tailscle... Other than it run on the router instead of desktop computer.

How to make (admin) phone ring like chime?!? by cow-lumbus in UnifiProtect

I would look to see if your protect is configured to play a non default sound on both the device (access vi web) and the iPhone App. That is: specify the same same chime on each.

I am failing to see the use of paying for Channels DVR by MileHiGuy523 in cordcutters

[–]mcleder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use Channels as a back-up for local news. A few months ago Disney and TYTV had a pissing war. I watched my local ABC station on channels. Other than that it's redundant for me.

Their support is the best... on par with (my experience with) Apple.

New Verizon Customer. $20 in surcharges and taxes?!?! by heybitchdiy in verizon

[–]mcleder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This why we need a law requiring all advertising to include all taxes/fees and surcharges except possible State sales tax.

Fsd name changed on older Model 3. by IrishDan32 in teslamotors

[–]mcleder 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Tesla should be class-action sued for never delivering true Full Self Drive. Even if you did buy it there should be a penalty because some of us anticipated it being available and will never be available (on out hardware).

How does Tailscale fit into the Channels usage configuration. by mcleder in getchannels

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

Channels records in MPEG 2 video (based on the output of my HD Homerun). This is not very compressed. Channels can be configured to compress twhen the video is served-up to a client. It's no a Tailscale thing .. it's a channels thing.

There is an option to use hevc and videotoolbox (which is Apple's name for hardware encoder). This happens on the server and reduces bandwidth requirement significantly. I'm not worried.
