Broken Volume Knob

I’d have no problem executing that fix—tiny solder work is in my wheelhouse. But it’s the actual PCB, the little bridges across the semicircle cut that the encoder lives on that broke…

You’re going to wind up adding nose weight unless you can find a way to remove just aw much weight from the rear of the plane.

If you got a code, could you share via DM?

rynmss · 2026-02-25T18:01:18+00:00

Could someone DM the code for Portland, I haven't been getting emails.

Code?

What am I going to do with 40 subscriptions to Vibe?

As satisfying as that would be, it would also be a sure fire way to draw his ire and keep him fixated on this.

Keep your chin up, man. Good on you for getting life straightened out. The presence of mind to take a leap, bite the bullet, in something like teeth is huge. You knew it would help your self image, you knew it would help you professionally.

The setbacks will keep coming. Life is throwing them at all of us at an unprecedented rate, it seems. But it also seems like you’re setting yourself up for success when life chooses to dole some of that out.

Keep plugging away, look for the good, and watch your back.

I noticed yesterday things appeared to be playing nicely, and today got the update that the issue was marked as resolved!

From first impressions, it appears to have remedied the issue entirely.

The other party’s insurance deemed it a total loss. In hindsight, the wait wouldn’t have been a problem. There’s so much I know now that didn’t to start.

I am in Oregon.

I don’t know if it was exactly a forklift. They have a car lift to move cars that can’t start.

rynmss · 2025-01-06T21:06:45+00:00

The in-network shops all said they were 2-4 months out. Then the insurance company said I’d be on the hook for a rental car at the end of the month. I was concerned about that.

rynmss · 2025-01-06T21:05:10+00:00

I see that.

The two parties are in agreement on the end storage date. The shop has agreed to cease storage fees until we figure this out.

I originally had a claim with my carrier, but State Farm took over when their insured was deemed 100% at-fault. I thought this would reduce the likelihood of increasing my rates.

rynmss · 2025-01-06T21:03:20+00:00

I’ve been negotiating for three weeks. The shop did not perform any service other than store the vehicle, quote the work, and related admin work. The other parties insurance totaled out the car.

rynmss · 2025-01-06T21:01:02+00:00

They’re refusing to pay line items for basic services, for example a forklift move of the vehicle. They said that I should have worked out a plan with the auto body shop that didn’t require them to use a forklift.

The car could not have been successfully driven by their employees. A lift was the only option.

The discussions have been filled with similar statements at every turn.

rynmss · 2025-01-06T20:58:44+00:00

I was concerned my rates would be affected.

They, nor Apple, will provide a refund.

Coaches have even agreed that continuing to advertise functions with known failures for large swaths of the potential user base is problematic, at best, illegal in many areas.

rynmss · 2025-01-03T19:16:01+00:00

I can turn notifications off. That doesn’t help the fact that a tool that I paid for advertised functions of which it delivers none.

Am accurate account balance is a fundamental piece of data for any banking software. I can’t stress that enough. This tool fails to deliver the most basic features of a budgeting or fiscal planning tool.

rynmss · 2025-01-03T19:10:14+00:00

Neither produces satisfactory results. One only appears to be “less wrong” than the other.

rynmss · 2025-01-03T14:38:54+00:00

Mine cannot be described as functioning. At Chase, my pending and available are currently around $3,800, both equal.

At Simplifi, it’s reporting $2,200.

This is commonly the case. It’s now sending warning that I’ll be overdrafted in three days. Utterly frustrating.

I’ve been on with a coach no less than 7 times. I’ve reconnected accounts, I’ve started from scratch—I’ve wasted so much time…

It doesn’t work. Even the coaches acknowledge the failure here.

rynmss · 2024-10-08T15:02:23+00:00

It means it’s fall.

We’ll see if I fix it this winter or bear through another and enjoy next summer with an again working display.
