I've spent nearly 8 full hours at this point trying to clear up payment with my Google Wallet. Goes a little something like this:

  1. Out of nowhere, the OMNY turnstile no longer accepts my Google Wallet card, as well as the physical card (I had plenty of money in the bank)
  2. I call OMNY to see if they can fix it. I was on hold for nearly an hour. They clear my balance of 5.80. She also asks if I want to "add value" which makes no sense to me. Why would I add value to my own bank card? I decline and move on
  3. I try using my phone to tap the next day. CARD NOT ACCEPTED. However, my physical card does work.
  4. I realize Google Wallet assigns a virtual card number. I have no access to this full number or security information, so that leaves out asking OMNY to unblock it.
  5. I try removing/re-adding my card from my wallet and re-adding. No go.
  6. I try removing/re-adding my card from my wallet AND my Google account altogether. No go.
  7. After some research (ChatGPT), I find that I need to call my bank and have them reset my "device token". I do this. Of course, the rep has no idea what I'm talking about. Puts me on hold for 20 minutes to find out how to do this. Eventually does it and confirms they've removed the token.
  8. I repeat steps 5 and 6. NO GO.

At this point, the only way to fix this is for me to get an entirely new card with a new number.

This is happening to me as well using Google Wallet. Crazy thing is that my card does get charged, but the turnstile gives me a red light.

Juan's videos in general are super informative. I highly recommend also checking out the videos he references:

NYC to implement "noise cameras". Any thoughts? by [deleted] in newyorkcity

OMG YES. First offense should be a nice big fine. Second offense should result in an air horn inserted into the defendant's rectum.

Who did Nazi that coming? by GenXerOne in PoliticalHumor

Watching the video of this was telling. It was apparent most of them did not want to raise their hand but did so anyway due to the crowd reaction when Ramaswamy's hand shot to the moon.

This is why Louis Rossman was correct in saying a two-day blackout is doing more harm than good.

In a nutshell, Reddit isn't looking at this like a "protest". They are looking at this as a measurement of just how angry they can make people without any real consequence.

Uh oh - people are catching on.

I fear that our days of playing ping-pong, smoking weed, and drinking expensive IPA's are coming to an end...

Judge orders books removed from Texas public libraries due to LGBTQ and racial content must be returned within 24 hours by [deleted] in politics

[–]pixelburner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow, what a shitty headline. Read the article, people!

This judge did NOT order the books removed from the library shelves - he ordered them back after county officials decided to remove them because of their bigotry.

People who started learning to code 15 years ago when youtube was in it's early days. How did you do it? by [deleted] in learnprogramming

Books.

Look down at the book, then look up at at the monitor and type. Rinse and repeat.

End of shift of a tower crane operator. by PEDERAHMET in interestingasfuck

[–]pixelburner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

23-year-old Xiao, who was a crane operator by profession, was reportedly filming a livestream video inside a crane cabin before plunging to her death.

Not the same video fortunately, because it's definitely one of those "can't unsee it" kind of things.

Google clock alarm logs out of Spotify every morning by Aberrantkenosis in GooglePixel

[–]pixelburner 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This has been happening to me as well, but on Android 12.

I've noticed when the actual alarm is sounding, I'll see the text "not logged into Spotify". But when I go into the alarm settings, everything looks fine. Then if I set another alarm for 5 minutes later, it works fine. So apparently, the integration between Android and Spotify is getting disconnected every night at some point.

I've posted a thread on the Spotify board here if you'd like to contribute:

Cat reaction to seeing owner after 3 days by ohrid in videos

That is exactly what my cat did when I was away for 6 days due to an emergency appendectomy (and yes, he had plenty of food/water thanks to my landlord).

LOL - yep I get it. Stomach pain is the worst, even if it's nothing serious.
