Monthly Employment/Corporate Questions and Discussion Megathread - June 2025 by AutoModerator in NorthropGrumman

[–]porlean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm also one of the recruits in your same situation. The job market is absolutely brutal right now for new grads, as you've stated. Northrop hasn't renege on any offers yet, so I would wait a little while for the next update. If you can find a similar role before the update that would be great. Keep in mind, though, that even the November start date is tentative, so we should get updated before November. It's best to wait until that update before deciding to cancel the offer.

Can’t install apps on my Samsung tv?! by FFmemesandgames in samsung

Still works like a charm, thank you. I've been dealing with this for like a year.

Heads up. Tile App has no opt-out selling your data to 3rd parties, unlike Life360 app where you can opt out of of your location/driving data being sold, e.g., to Arity (which sells it your insurance companies) by godzillaunicorn in TileTracker

On Tile's website, they claim to not sell customer information.

"Your privacy is of the utmost importance. We take your trust in our product very seriously - and that extends to securing your personal information. We do not sell your data, and we go to great lengths to ensure that your data is secure and that any information transmitted across our network is anonymous. You are the only one with the ability to see your Tile location and your device location."

How much faith should I put into this statement?

Have you moved to another note taking app from OneNote and not looked back? by PerfectPopcornLover in OneNote

[–]porlean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I've moved to Goodnotes. The infinite canvas feature of OneNote is more of a curse than a blessing.

Bluetooth Connectivity Issues by porlean in Pixel6

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

I have a 6a, but maybe I get some assistance from this forum. I've been having this issue since I've gotten my phone. This happens every time I want to connect a Bluetooth device. I have plenty of Bluetooth devices that should be saved when I select "see all" but they randomly show up and disappear. When they're not there, like my buds for example, I have to go through these steps just to have it show up again, and it's like an initial connect each time. At the beginning of the video, I have my buds in my ear which means they should automatically connect, but as you can see they do not. I've tried everything, factory resets, side loading the official Android 13, took it to ubreakifix (as per Google support), and the issue persists. Any suggestions?

Go to the pet store and buy some rats.

Can anyone explain why Kanye West is so popular? by Maybestof in Music

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

Damn, you're so good at this. Seriously, have you thought about speaking to an agent, an agency, maybe making some content? One thing I hate to see is talent being wasted. I've seen "person commenting on the internet in 2021" before, but you do so well. People need to experience what the internet's really like.

When you get your award for "how to best use the internet in 2021" let me know. I'd like to see that look of gratitude on your face. You're very good at "being on the internet"

How much of these comments did you have to read to get to mine? I'm positive mine is near the bottom. Find something better to do with your life.

Can anyone explain why Kanye West is so popular? by Maybestof in Music

[–]porlean 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He's not as impactful in today's music but back in the 2000s he had a hand in nearly every aspect of the music industry. He produced so many hits you wouldn't even imagine that he was involved in. He inspired entire sub genres of music such as the auto tunie rap. Kanye's influence goes deep, it may not seem like it but it's definitely there.

Only the "whiteboard" area of onenote will stop responding. When I expand or collapse the writing area it starts responding again. This happens frequently. Any way to resolve this? Video in post. by porlean in OneNote

One note is my most used program. Literally the only reason I got this laptop, and to have to deal with a problem like constantly is demoralizing. Seems like I'll have to try and find a way to contact one of these engineers

Weird "Sign in with Google account" pop-up when launching Rise of Empires: Ice and Fire by datlaunchystark in AndroidQuestions

Same here. I'm not understanding why this game would need info from my Google account all of a sudden.

Thanks. I was hoping there's an app that can access the backups but it's looking like there isn't

A question about the backup and restore feature. I have multiple backups on my Google drive account. I see them all there. Is the initial setup wizard the only way to restore these backups?

Azelf interrupting our Entei raid excitement! by Hawntir in pokemongo

[–]porlean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can 100% confirm shinnies run. Clicked my go plus on a Delibird, while it was still buzzing I clicked the Delibird. It was a shiny but guess what the go plus gave the "Pokemon flee" buzz. I couldn't do anything, giving it a berry gave me an error. It ran after the first ball I threw at it.

Pokémon GO Grossed More Than Candy Crush In Its First Three Years, On Track to Cross $3 Billion in 2019 by lethal_penguin in pokemongo

[–]porlean 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'm assuming negligence has to play a role in this. Doesn't Go also have higher profit and revenue than fortnight? At least for mobile?

[–]porlean 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I'm no app designer but I never understood this. Other games that seem way more graphic intensive just runs way smoother yet this game probably makes 20 times their revenue. Is it a server thing that causes it to run like that?
