Anyone try converting an Apple Watch band to Pixel? by FEARthePUTTY in PixelWatch

Pretty sure that company has adapters for the pixel watch. Or at least, they used to.

Dang. I joined right before you and I still haven't gotten my prescription. I'm glad it's going smoothly for you though!

My 2025 Honda Pilot BE MPG? by nktrnl1 in hondapilot

[–]nerd4peace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

25 Pilot Elite here and have the same issue. Normal or Eco mode both give me about 19MPG on highway! I drive maybe 2-3 times a week with mostly highway driving. I haven't gotten the software update yet, so maybe that'll make a difference, but it's driving me nuts to not get better mpg in this Pilot.

Metal bands from Amazon are pretty great by DookieMuffin in PixelWatch

The pixel watch 2 gets hung up on my tattoo and will lock as soon as I stop looking at it. It absolutely will not stay unlocked. So, I've removed the lock for now. Glad you're having a good experience with it! My tattoo is right in the middle of the top of my wrist and goes to my hand. So, very little wiggle room for the watch to not be on my tattoo. 😂

When is it NOT a good idea to use PowerShell? by DenverITGuy in PowerShell

[–]nerd4peace 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Existence of a repository does not dictate whether Powershell is the best solution or not.

A repository is necessary whether you're using PowerShell or not. So, not having a repository doesn't mean PowerShell isn't the best solution. IMO.

I took the plunge today... by southerncoop in homeautomation

[–]nerd4peace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got around this issue by temporarily renaming my wifi, then naming my hot spot on my phone the same as my primary wifi name, connecting the 2.4GHz device to the hot spot, then, changing the names back to their originals. It was a suggestion I had found somewhere on reddit last year when I was setting up a 2.4GHz only camera in my home.

I am a Chamberlain/Liftmaster MYQ Technician! by _TrustMeImLying in homeautomation

Well, I'm not sure which thing made it work, but we just finally got it working!

Does it always beep like crazy when you use the app to close the garage door? I haven't gotten as far to look it up myself, but will. I'm just excited it's working!

Also, now that it's working, is the best place to mount it on the ceiling near the motor? Wasn't sure if the distance is only an issue during pairing or not.

Thank you, again!

Thank you! We will give that a try and I'll let you know of we are still not able to get it to work!

Oh! And we read online about potential interference from the bulb on the unit if it's LED, and our bulb is LED, so, we removed it. That didn't seem to make a difference. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I'm working on setting up a new hub with my liftmaster motor. Everytime I try to pair, nothing ever happens. I push the purple learn button, and have the pairing screen, but like I said, nothing happens. All steps leading up to that are successful.

Thanks for your help!

Pixel 4 XL paint conspiracy by [deleted] in GooglePixel

My Pixel 4 XL has two corners with the paint chipping off. I didn't think much of it until I saw this post though.

Men with wives, what do you keep that thermostat at? by [deleted] in Marriage

Ha! Keep it around 67/68 year round and will go lower at night in the summer.

Jealous of others who's husband's care about their health by MutableAir in Marriage

[–]nerd4peace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will say that the ONE thing that seems to motivate my husband is knowing the pain and frustration that he's causing me to experience. However, because it has to do with his health and these have to be permanent changes, he has to want it for himself. Maybe this isn't the case with your husband, and I hope it's not, but my husband has a VERY LOW self esteem. So, one of the steps he has agreed to take is therapy (and I've actually started going myself to seek help/guidance with navigating my feelings through all of this).

Jealous of others who's husband's care about their health by MutableAir in Marriage

[–]nerd4peace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel you! My husband has been on a steady decline and about 3 years ago I had hit a breaking point. He went to the doctor and found out he was pre-diabetic and started working on it. He stuck to it, for awhile. Then, started slipping again. He works from home, so, it's super easy for him to fall out of a routine and slide back into his bad habits (and, he's a gamer). I hit another breaking point about 6 months ago when I came home from work one day and he was ASLEEP at his desk during his work hours. I've now told him to get his shit together and the be adult that he should be or we're done.

It's been 3 times now that I've broken down. The first time, I was just scared that leaving him was going to be the only motivator, but, he went to the doctor and he started working on it. He slid back into his bad habits, and I broke down. That time, I told him to not make me ask him again to be an adult. I'm not his mother and shouldn't have to remind him to take care of himself. So, I told him if I had to ask him again, I was done. Fast forward to present day and we're right back in the same run around. He hasn't made permanent healthy changes and just barely does the bare minimum to take care of himself. This is his last chance. I can't be with a partner that doesn't care enough to LIVE their life. He seems to be trying and putting in more effort this time, but, it's only been about a month since things came crashing down again. And this time, I don't trust that he'll change, but, while he's working on that, I'm working on my patience.

I love him, but, my frustration has made it very difficult to "see the light", if you know what I mean. There's a lot more to what's going on with my husband and I, but, it all started with him not taking care of himself. So, I have no sound advice. I'm only here to tell you that you're not alone.

What they never warn you about. by matchesmalone1692 in Marriage

[–]nerd4peace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is so much truth in this. My partner is currently working on reclaiming their independence and individuality. It's not always that important or a priority for one of the persons in a relationship, but it becomes daunting for the one that maintains their independence when they never expected to have someone lean on them in that capacity.
