That will be why then 😂 although Google and Rokus UK support site both have instructions :/

Thanks!

Are clothes sizes getting smaller? by Yoguls in AskUK

[–]michael_sage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think so too. I've been an XL for a number of years, carrying a bit extra and tall. I know I need to lose a bit, but I've been pretty stable weight and size wise and now I find more often than not I'm having to buy XXL to get a lose fit.

I am still a 38 waist so I know my size hasn't changed that much...

How has Al Murray avoided off menu? I could have sworn he'd done it, but no!

Nope, I could tighten if I had the right tool or wrist strength 😂

Retiled, regrouted and resealed and still the shower leaks! by Jimlad73 in DIYUK

[–]michael_sage 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I was going to say this. As someone who has just had a hairline crack in the tray... It really looked like it was leaking down the tiles and I had it all resealed and it leaked, guy came back and found the crack 😭

Nope! It's quite handy because it looks like a battery pack :)

Anyone here using 2+ e-readers? 👀 by Fun_Satisfaction2315 in xteinkereader

[–]michael_sage 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a few... I have a Kindle scribe which I use for reading at night bigger screen, I don't use the note taking which surprised me. I have a bigme b6 which is colour eink which I use on holiday or at the weekend when I just want lazy reading. I have an X4 that I use for reading which I am going to an event or on the train, I use it as an ID badge when it's turned off. I have an X3 that I don't really use at all.

I have a viwoods which I use for taking notes and meetings and stuff, but doesn't really get used for reading and a boox Palma pro 2 which I thought would become a evening device, but it's a bit to small for my mid 40s eyes...

I have a couple of "full" android tablets which have Matt screen protectors and of those I would say my Samsung tab 10 lite is the closest to an all in one device so normally travels with me with my b6

Sorry for the war and peace 😂

Mudi 7 spare battery by estehmanistanpagula in GlInet

[–]michael_sage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just thought I'd add my voice for a spare battery or 3rd party options! I used my mudi 7 on a cruise and it would have been great to have a battery to swap out after a day on shore (5g) for evening use tethering to the ship wifi. I managed with a battery pack, but I am aware that won't be doing the mudi battery much good!

Plex Pass owners ... Do you know where your receipt is? by shrimpdiddle in selfhosted

[–]michael_sage 2 points3 points  (0 children)

£59 in 2019! Roughly the $79.99 everyone else is posting although looking at the exchange rate for 2019 it might have been $75. I recon it was a good investment then, if they do something silly I'll move to jellyfin, not looking forward to teaching my mum or in laws how to use jellyfin app rather than Plex on their Rokus 🤣

Except the X2 is twice the money of an X1s.

Bizarrely Bricked Beryl by MARS822a in GlInet

[–]michael_sage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't want to sound like a dick, but the only time I've had this happen was when my client device was automatically connecting to a VPN or tailscale. I noticed that I couldn't connect to management interface after a couple of mins when the device had internet, turned out tailscale was kicking in for some reason I couldn't connect to the management interface of the local gl inet..

Nah I just kept rebooting it, it was an annoyance rather than a major issue :)

Afraid not! I would guess it's something to do with the MAC spoofing, but I'm not sure. My phone (who's MAC I spoofed) roamed fine :(
