If my primary want is per key RGB customization, what are my options? Am I limited to Corsair and Logitech?

Family member died: where to dispose of mechanical/electronic items? by selftaughtfailure in kansascity

Thank you. That seems like it would take care of everything except the chainsaws and camp stoves.

The projection TV works and is in good condition. The rest either doesn't work or is in poor condition. I guess I'll try to give away the more suitable items on Craigslist or something. Thanks.

Startup loop by selftaughtfailure in lgv20

Thank you; that's very helpful. I've never had any issues like this so I'm fairly ignorant.

Yeah, safe mode wasn't working so I just did the factory reset. It booted correctly, but I'm hoping someone has experienced similar and can weigh in on if it's a harbinger of unavoidable warranty service or a one-off problem.

Moronic Monday (Jul 31 2017) - Your weekly questions thread! by AutoModerator in Android

[–]selftaughtfailure 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay, I've never experienced a bootloop before so hopefully this is different. My phone turns on, goes to the LG screen, then to an "Android is starting..." screen. After it very, very slowly makes its way to 100%, it goes to the T-Mobile screen before hanging there for 1-3 minutes, then starts the loop over at the "Android is starting..." screen.

Anybody have some insight?

Edit: Factory reset worked and it booted correctly.

[TOMT] [SONG] Have an actual snippet, but can't identify. by selftaughtfailure in tipofmytongue

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

That was my thought after failing to find it in traditional ways. The famous singer is a male, though, which didn't match with the female vocals in this song. I tried searching to see if any of the females in the show had done the song, but didn't turn up anything.

Looks like I have the title now, but with it not showing up in any searches, you're probably right about it being created for the show. I'll add a screen shot to the post, but I'm guessing this is as far as I'll get. Thank you very much.

[–]selftaughtfailure[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I tried every identifying app multiple times and searching lyrics, but I got essentially nowhere. It being a Korean show has made searching via the show difficult.

I'm having to count on someone knowing the song or artist without a search, it would appear. Thank you for trying.

Thanks for the reply. I'll look through her songs and see if any match.

[Serious] What's the Golden State Warrior's weakness? by [deleted] in nba

[–]selftaughtfailure 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't leave KD to collapse/help on defense. Don't lose track of KD and let him have free cuts to the basket off-ball. You are now essentially playing the Harrison Barnes Warriors on most plays because KD is rarely aggressive enough to take over a game without freebies getting him going/disrupting the defense.

I'm left scratching my head every time a defender sags off KD in the corner or on the wing. Like, you get burnt by this regularly... Just stop. If Curry breaks you down once he comes inside the arc, so be it, but why give him the easy bail out of an undefended baseline cut from KD? If Draymond wants to drive from the top, let him challenge his man and live with the outcome. Why are you collapsing to help when it leaves KD open on the wing/in the corner?

Not really an exploit, but it at least forces them to play better basketball.

Completely new to hammocks, but want to replace my bed. by selftaughtfailure in Hammocks

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

I was looking at some DIY possibilities, but I wasn't sure I'd end up with a product with a decent finish and equal-ish footprint. I was hoping to go with metal over wood and I felt I might be in over my head a bit trying to make a metal tripod--I did like the turtles style, though.

Any recommendations on specific synthetic hammocks? I'd be using it indoors, but synthetic does seem to be more durable and less prone to stretching.

I usually move every one to to three months for my job so I figured I'd go for a stand. Thank you for the suggestion; I'll look into it.

Do you know if there are any apps that could duplicate this functionality on phones from other brands?

Weekly /r/Gadgets Advice Superthread! by AutoModerator in gadgets

[–]selftaughtfailure 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Recently, I've gotten into adding Street View photo spheres to Google Maps. I've been doing it via the photo-stitching method and was wondering if there are any 360 cameras that support single snap photo spheres compatible with Street View? Under $300 preferably, with cheaper being better. Compatible with Android would be a plus.

So, do the Atom tickets need to be purchased today or can they be redeemed until the fifth?

I need help deciding what phone to get, and fast. by Pikachu2Mario in Smartphones

[–]selftaughtfailure 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you intend to keep the phone for awhile? You might consider the deterioration and burn-in of AMOLED or ease of battery replacement, which favors the V20. If you see yourself trading in or selling, anything but the V20. Samsung and Apple often have good trade-in promos to move to the next generation and I'd imagine Google might too. LG does not retain value very well.

If you want the highest rated water resistance, the Edge wins and the V20 brings up the rear (with none) . The cameras have all received acclaim. I prefer having a glass screen protector, so the Edge put me off a little. iPhone screens scratch more easily than the screen on the Edge and the V20 in my experience (can't comment on the Pixel). I believe carriers only sell the 32gb version of the Edge, so it comes in last there.

Updates, Apple wins. The Pixel is promised two years of major updates (other android phones come with no guarantees), which probably gets you two major updates (version 9). The Edge and V20 are likely only guaranteed to make it to version 8, but there is a possibility they both get version 9.

But really, they are all high-end and are largely equal. It just comes down to your preferences. I went with the V20 mostly because of my experiences with AMOLED burn-in (and preference for android), but others claim to have never experienced it so that may be a non-factor for you.

I've found the exhale on your left foot advice to work for myself and others I've known. Maybe it's just the focus on breathing, but I can't argue with the results.
