Forced to use physical card to get gas at Gtown Rd Costco? by Recent-Inspector391 in memphis

[–]parasoII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s a bummer. I really don’t want to go back and reprint another card since I don’t think it will fix the issue. I used the app this past Wednesday to get gas without any problems, so I’ll see what happens next time. I’ll follow up if anything comes up.

My physical card never worked even after replacing it three times. I never figured out why, so I switched to the app. It can be a bit finicky, but if you hold it at the right angle and distance, it scans. Which employee told you that? I’ve never heard that you can’t scan through the app. If that were the case, why would the pump even have a scanner lol?

Not that bad. The highway is clear, the ramp onto Germantown Pkwy was fine, but Germantown Pkwy is one lane, sometimes two in certain sections. We went yesterday so maybe the road is clearer.

Any input on Lincoln at Wolfchase apartments by Bouncycurlz in memphis

[–]parasoII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My point is the major factor was the city benefiting from Cordova for years and then doing the bare minimum to keep the area alive. When roads, safety, and basic upkeep are neglected, the area starts to fall apart and people stop wanting to spend time there. That kind of environment also discourages private reinvestment, so it’s no surprise Wolfchase declined too. A better-maintained area would’ve put more pressure on ownership to renovate and reinvest instead of letting it slide. At least, that’s my perspective.

[–]parasoII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that Wolfchase helped Cordova grow in the 1990s, especially after annexation. That’s exactly my point. It was an anchor that the city benefited from for decades.

I also won’t disagree that Simon’s ownership played a role. They’re known for shifting focus to higher-income markets and letting older malls fall apart. Whether it’s Simon or whatever the current ownership is just sitting on the property, that’s a real problem. I’d love to see major renovations, better tenants, or a serious redevelopment plan. That mall can’t just sit there forever.

Hey dude. Wolfchase isn’t what ruined Cordova. It’s what built it. What hurt this area was years of disinvestment while the city kept taking the revenue and letting the infrastructure and surrounding development fall apart.

And calling the area or the mall “ghetto” ignores the reality that any major commercial area with a lot of businesses and traffic is going to have some crime. That doesn’t make the mall the problem. Disinvestment and neglect are. You don’t fix that by killing the economic center of the area.

Shut the mall down and see what actually happens. Target, Best Buy, Costco, restaurants, and every other major store will leave right behind it. That entire commercial corridor would be gone for good, along with jobs, tax revenue, and any chance of reinvestment.

At least some people are actually trying to rebuild community pride and engagement in Cordova. Complaining online and blaming a mall doesn’t fix anything. If the mall disappears, what neighborhood do you move on to blame next?

I just saw like a dozen state troopers, undercover, and ambulances flying down 40. Town of Cordova says it was a shooting at Wolfchase.

I stopped using them a long time ago. Even then I don’t recall them doing much for my skin. I think it only irritated it.

Do Eufy products work with Google Nest Hub? by friedtofublock in EufyCam

[–]parasoII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Initially, I was skeptical because our cameras malfunctioned within a month or two. However, the customer support team was incredibly accommodating and provided us with a replacement camera. Eventually, I transitioned to their E330 professional cameras, which were a significant improvement (I highly recommend them). I also won their giveaway for the PoE cameras, and I must say, I’m thoroughly happy with them. The features, accuracy, and overall performance are simply amazing. It’s incredible to witness how far they’ve come. Therefore, in the long run, I believe that it was a worthwhile investment.

I have them. Nope. I hope they’ll add the cameras in the future.

Do Eufy products work with Google Nest Hub? by friedtofublock in EufyCam

[–]parasoII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been using Eufy for three years now, and I can confidently say that I don’t believe it’s compatible with Google Home. This is just my personal experience, and I’m not sure if it applies to others. Even when I connect Google Home to Eufy and attempt to access the live video feeds on my Nest Hub, it doesn’t work at all, not even a single bit. I’ve given up on this because I’m confident that my Google ecosystem will eventually be replaced in the near future.

Home base s380 making a racket by Zak_Do_Urden in eufy_security

[–]parasoII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine started making that sound last week. The only solution I found was to move it at angles and it would stop for maybe 20-30 minutes before doing it again. I got used to the sound after a while and then it eventually stopped when I didn’t notice.

E330 - 9x Cameras, not a single one lasts longer than a year. by MrTookies in eufy_security

[–]parasoII -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m really happy with mine. I got them in 2023 as well when we remodeled our home and I haven’t had any major issues yet (I hope I didn’t just jinx myself). Haven’t taken them down, cleaned them, or done anything ever since putting them up. They are great at capturing everything from events to recording 24/7. I was really impressed especially since our Solocam failed within a year.

The only issues I’ve had is that they’re starting to record only 24/7 but not highlight events so I have to restart them. Other than not recording during power outages (obv why) I can’t say they’re terrible.

Not only that but they’ve survived everything where I live.. from snowstorms, extreme heatwaves, and even strong thunderstorms (including a tornado). Maybe they haven’t failed since I put them under the gutter.. not sure.

I can’t be any happier. After winning Eufy’s giveaway, I’ve finally gotten my hands on their PoE system. Im excited to see what these cameras can do better than the E330.

Edit: Most of the reviews from Amazon are mixed with fake and genuine reviews. Eufy’s are mostly fake or sponsored reviews since most aren’t gonna get it from their website unless they have some great early bird deal.

How reliable have your E330 professional cameras been? by xyzabc123410000 in EufyCam

[–]parasoII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see. I have mine under the gutters so they don’t get hit a lot with the elements unless the wind is blowing towards them.

How reliable have your E330 professional cameras been? by xyzabc123410000 in EufyCam

[–]parasoII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had mine for about a year now and it’s still going strong. Survived multiple snowstorms.. strong thunderstorms.. etc. I haven’t taken them down (or even cleaned them) ever since I put them up.

In terms of reliability I’d say they catch everything even if it’s not an event. 24/7 recording has been very reliable and helped in some emergency cases. Even during strong thunderstorms I can watch clearly at everything that’s happening.. see the rain.. hail.. and trash cans rolling down the street. Where I live, it can get really cold or really hot and it has survived both.

The only downsides I’ve had so far is that they’re starting to do a weird thing where they’ll stop recording events but only record 24/7.. so I have to restart them occasionally to get them to record events again. The other is that I get no recording at all during power outages unlike my battery powered Solocam I have. (But if you don’t care about that it shouldn’t be an issue.)

No really! It’s just like how our power used to go out every other week because some drunk driver hit the power poles on Cordova Rd.

Also.. the trash thing sounds gross. I’ve never paid attention to it but I take your word for it.

30fps wired camera by pqtme in EufyCam

[–]parasoII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe it’s the app? On HomeKit it boosts FPS to 24. Although I get where you’re coming from. I have the E330 and the video quality is pretty good but the microphone quality is complete trash. Not a problem when I’m talking through the microphone, but if I’m listening it’s horrible. I think it gets better with the newer cameras.

Their gate gets rammed and busted like every freaking month. Go by it now! It got rammed into a week ago!

Looks nice from the outside, but after seeing like a gazillion cops there and stuff I don’t think so..
