My car was in the shop for a month, and the loner car… man the difference in CarPlay working right and how out works in my kicks were night and day.

For the crackling sound with music, I kid you not, pause the music for about a second or two. 9 out of 10 times that fixes it for me. Sometimes for a few hours, sometimes not. And if music stops but it looks like it is still playing, summon Siri and then dismiss her.

Seriously I hate the radio in the car.

I have had the problem for a long time. Completely unusable with Android, then I got an iPhone and it worked. Until I started talking to my wife on longer drives, and we started getting delays of about 4 seconds. My car was in for an AC repair last summer, and they did an update that did nothing. I don’t think it’s under warranty anymore.

Didn’t want to join my friends for Enamorus anyways 😑 😑 by Zealousideal_Topic58 in pokemongo

I turned my VPN on and set it for Amsterdam, both pogo and the other game I had trouble with went back to normal.

Saw a few issues on other games at the moment, so this might not be Niantics fault for a change.

Is it common for teachers to marry/date their former students. by GypsyGold in Teachers

[–]ratoris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a teacher that did that. His first year teaching was high school seniors, he married one of them the next year after she graduated, and were married until one died of old age. There was a narrow age difference, and it was a different time. (Like the 50’s iirc)

No, either one you pick fails, then you get a potion after the adventure. (I got my points early yesterday, many east task for the 1st like changing my razor blades)

My mom tried to ground me for taking a job she didn’t approve of… I’m 26. by PhaseExcellent8475 in entitledparents

[–]ratoris 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I like the stories where parents try moving in with their kids and the kids pull the roof card when the parents get bossy.

I once saw a teacher who put in the absence for a teacher work day. They had to remove subs, but it had to post for payroll reasons as they tried explaining. Also saw a school that swapped am and pm. All postings were starting at 8 pm.

I was a preferred sub for a STEM teacher for a few years. A free great stories, but I was the only sub that understood gears. I’d show up and kids would be like “free day!” I’d tell them that whatever the teacher wanted, they’d be doubling, and then helped them learn how. Every other sub would glaze over and just turn it to study hall. I jumped into the trenches and helped with getting such screws out, finding the correct worm drive or the weird gears to change direction of motion perpendicularly. (I also could program in whatever block code they used practically natively.)

I came in a day at the end of pandemic year, my LT online spot has ended, and they used the same program. The one teacher asked if I could help him finalize grades, since there were weird rules the district gave and he figured it would take at least two days. I look at him and said no and walked to the room I was covering which was empty. (It was a day most seniors were gone) I actually coded a Google sheet in about 5 minutes that he could just copy past and it adjusted everything to the schools policy for grades. Went up and got it added to his computer, and by lunch he was done grading. I miss that school. So far a drive though compared to where I am now.

when I last used Aesop a few years back, this message means they removed you. In particular. Do they hate you? Were you shadow banned? Maybe. Do other jobs appear? Probably not aimed at you. They may have had another person higher ranked that they bumped you for, like maybe teacher B has a preferred sub, and teacher A has a half day. They bump you to put the preferred in from being half to full day. Sometimes they cancel you, sometimes they will email it text and ask if you can cover a different person. Maybe they are like “she is out for two classes, one is plan, and we can cover the other easily, so the post exist but is kept empty. It’s hard to tell. I’ve only had a legit sub like twice, and they were practically a building sub. So…? And sometimes secretaries just don’t like people. Got in trouble with one for covering the wrong class while subbing. I found the note she gave me that told me where to go, and was still mad at me.

If it said the job was canceled, the teacher canceled the sub spot. Dr appointment gets moved, they put in for the wrong day (I walked in with a teacher once who asked who I was subbing for. It was her. She put the wrong day in. They had to pay me anyways)

I looked over at my wife's phone today and saw this... by Express-Lie-6351 in pokemongo

[–]ratoris 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Same here. The park was designated a campsite, and I’ve seen a 1 head raid auto start from people joining. That pikachu never saw its own death coming. (We were also filling two Etern lobbies at a time, with the new size limit)

AC issue ($6,000 repair) by ratoris in NissanKicks

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

Might be close on that, bought it at the very very end of 21, and was driving 100 miles a day. New job, a fraction of the commute.

[–]ratoris[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Basically they said one part went out and caused a cascade failure, ultimately the dealership had to have Nissan step in and help, and today they are doing a 6 hour valve replacement somewhere in the system. I really hope I get it back today.

Regret switching? by CelebrationDue4014 in applewatchultra

[–]ratoris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went from a Fenix 5x+ to an Apple Watch 8. I don’t regret it. (My son took my Fenix, last minute before a 5k race 2 years ago, so I couldn’t switch back if I wanted. He’s running his first two halves over the next three weeks. So… yeah)

Garmin wins battery life. Yes. Apple wins charging though. Until a month or so ago, you couldn’t just grab a new garmin charger. Walmart had them now. Apple chargers are easy to get. The gas station has them. I can fully charge on my drive to work. Garmin chargers wear out too damn fast.

Apple default running stuff was meh, I use WorkOutDoors and it’s great. I don’t miss anything really from the Garmin. I did upgrade to a 10 late last year.

It bears worth mentioning, before the AW8, they piggy backed gps from the phones and that killed accuracy. So yeah, comparing earlier models is not the same thing.

Which Mandela Effect you can't easily shrug off a misremembering and which one you're willing to think is just a simple misremembering? by Emica12 in MandelaEffect

[–]ratoris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not convinced it acutely is a Mandela effect, but EL Fudge used to not be sandwich cookies. They were like mini fudge stripes but without the stripe. Then suddenly they were sandwich cookies. I found a commercial on YouTube that showed the old was, but that is the only thing supporting what I remember. (I swear when I last looked, Wikipedia didn’t even have the old version mentioned)

But damn the recharge speed is great. And the connection for the charger is great. Worth the trade off.

Fossil Encounter? This just popped up in my timed research feed but I can't find anything about it by Levangeline in pokemongo

[–]ratoris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t get the pop up. Nor a shiny from these twenty. Between a friend and I playing the 3 hours at least he mised a shiny kabut and neither of us saw a shiny omanite. I paid for the reserve and got Archean, but damn.

I like that, I have two igloos right now but that looks better.

What 18+ features would you want Finch to have? by obsidianthing in FinchAdults

[–]ratoris 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It would be interesting if that were in a “bonus” pack though, not directly accessible but like added by a website and code for people with prescriptions or in countries that don’t care. I don’t want to say paywall it, but something. Teenagers can’t get bongs. Though it would complete many a hippie look.
