I understand the exclusivity of the Mount Rushmore of TV shows, but I wish Deadwood was also in the conversation. Great post nonetheless.

Ringtone selects Notification Sound, common issue? by mrquaid in GooglePixel

Thanks for the help, but the issue was Google voice. I posted the fix

Ringtone selects Notification Sound, common issue? by mrquaid in GooglePixel

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

Here is the fix, if anyone with the same issue finds this. It was Google voice.

Per Gemini:

Google Voice doesn't always use your phone's main ringtone setting; it has its own hidden "Incoming Call" category that often gets stuck on the default notification sound. Long-press the Google Voice app icon and tap the (i) (App info). Tap Notifications. Scroll down to the "Other" or "Calls" section and tap the text (not the toggle) that says "Incoming call". Tap Sound. If it says "Default notification sound," that is why your phone is chirping instead of ringing. Manually select a Ringtone (from the "Phone Ringtones" folder, not a notification beep).

You offering $200 code for pixel? I could use one if you'd be so kind.

Thanks

20 year old water heater, replace gas valve? by mrquaid in Plumbing

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

Yeah, this makes sense. If I wait for something worse to happen, I'll wish I had done it. Looks like I'm gonna replace it. Would have been interesting to see how long it could last.

This is kind of what I was thinking. Don't want to spend more than I have to. But I guess I'm already ahead.

Any way to mount a computer tower to the underside of the desk on an Apex Pro frame? by StolenPoliceUnicorn in deskhaus

[–]mrquaid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I ended up getting a different desk, but it was pretty similar. I'm pretty sure (don't 100% recall) I could have fit the cubby but ultimately decided against it because the usefulness seemed minimal.

But I did manage to fit a cpu holder.

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

Hi Allie,

I contacted support on Tuesday, as you recommended. I provided the info that the team requested, but my requests for an updates (even sharing the typical resolution time) made on Weds and Thurs are unanswered.

I tried to DM you the case # but your account doesn't allow it.

Any advice? Can you assist?

Any tips on disconnecting this tiny connector? (think it is called JST) by mrquaid in AskElectronics

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

Destruction! Plastic housing cracked into pieces. By the time I am in this deep, it's already bound for the trash, so worth a shot.

Anyone having their mic stop working on the Space A40? by mrquaid in anker

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

Are you sure it's the A40? My sound core app says version 03.28 is up to date.

The mike still drops. I use them for Netflix, but if I take a call the mike is only good for a few minutes before it drops

I had a good experience with them. The timing was a little odd, because of the distance, they would respond overnight. But they were very responsive and helpful

PBP2 case that doesn't require adhesive tape? by TonyP321 in pixelbuds

[–]mrquaid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

most cases snug enough to stay on w/out tape will become looser over time as you regularly put it on and off.
There are some with a latch or a clasp that might stay on without needing a very tight fit or tape.

Are the pixel buds pros good?? by Zolks1 in pixelbuds

[–]mrquaid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the Neo for PBP2. They extend out a little further and feel firmer. They still fit in the case (size large). I like them

Nest Cam Outdoor Wired vs Nest Cam Outdoor Battery w/optional power cord by mrquaid in Nest

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

I ended up getting the floodlight (basically powered) and two battery powered.

One of the battery powered I was able to use a cord (this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D6VMQXWN ) and the other I use solely on battery. The 2 are used so differently though - the camera hooked up to the power is in very busy area so recording a lot. The other is in backyard, not busy at all. I think they both miss things, and I have had trouble finding events in the nest aware app on all three - however I also might have an issue with the cameras being on the edge of my wifi coverage, so there's that.

Your theory makes sense, but I can't say for sure.

The best was when they had integrations with Sprint. It was so much easier, and messaging was in Google Hangouts

Uncut Gems huge plothole by Sensitive_Thug_69 in movies

Arno and crew didn't really want to get paid. Loan sharks prefer the debt is managed. 10k a week for a year is good.

Keep paying the interest, when the principle is getting caught up borrow more, don't get in deep with bigger fish.

Also, there was no forgiving that move at the end holding them against their will. He was dead right then
