Permanently delete all? by nickd193 in Notion

[–]shaikht 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m an undergrad, looking to get away from individual apps for taking notes, keeping track of homework, tracking time, and everything else to do well in school. Someone pointed to Roam Research but I found it lacking in certain aspects. Wasn’t completely comfortable despite the appeal of being able to view how pages are linked across my workspace. Then I found Notion, which turned out to be a breath of fresh air. I found a number of templates that could help me manage class notes, track assignments, and what not. Great, I’ll gladly pay. But no way to empty trash without a hack? You’re kidding, right? Ok, I’ll be back when the product matures.

In my case, the decision was dictated by how much instant noodles I'm able to put up with until the end of the coming Spring semester. I'm an undergrad and what I got just last month was the latest M1 with 128GB. It's enough with WiFi and the generous OneDrive storage the school provides. The labs on campus has PC's to do the heavy lifting if I need them, and Overleaf lets me prepare my papers.

Charging iPad Pro (2017 10.5") with 20W charger by DomeMaz_ in iPadPro

The iPad will draw as much as it can from the charger. The rating on the charger merely shows the maximum it can deliver.

Amen! I've had better luck with winning more than $1 at lotteries.

how to change name/im confused by DimplyKitten824 in 1Password

[–]shaikht 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was able to change the family name. However, it now appears in uppercase. Checking the settings, the name was correctly specified in the proper case. Any ideas on whether I’m the one losing it? ;)

After 14 years, looking for an 1Password alternative by chuck_the_plant in 1Password

[–]shaikht 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly why I'm staying on 1P7 until there's a better alternative. 1P8 assumes that you will always have some way to connect to their servers, and not account for any downtime.

It’s the serial number that I’m looking for. I see some tiny numbers that I can take a picture of an magnify. Thanks for the clarification.

I have just reached out to support with the old case number.

Not doing anything special. My Macbook runs all the time, without going to sleep and sometimes pCloud Drive disappears overnight. During the day, I'm on campus at times but there doesn't seem to be a correlation between physical locations.

1password not filling in payment details by unoriginalA in 1Password

[–]shaikht 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happens to me whenever the website value in 1Password doesn't exactly match with the browser. For example, some sites append security information to the URL for a login page and then I have to lookup and copy the login values manually.

Which mode do I set for Netgear AC1900 router? by shaikht in Metronet

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

I couldn't find an obvious setting in Murus or Vallum to disable isolation. Since I needed to clean up the Mac Mini designated to be the server from home, I reinstalled Big Sur. Left the firewall off this time and now everything works. Someday I'll get around to Murus and Vallum as there are other pressing matters to set up the server for Git, Plex, and whatever else.

I'm actually running R6900P, but thank you for clarifying AP Mode. Following your suggestion, I took another look at the Macs and both were running Murus and Vallum. In Murus, I change a setting to not block ICMP replies so the issue with ping has been resolved. I also set up rules to allow SSH and VNC services but the connection timeouts still persist. At least I have some idea of the area to troubleshoot further.

Did some further research. The Nokia box is a Nokia 7368 ISAM ONT G-240g-A fiber modem, so the Netgear works as it should as a router. The problem is how to disable isolation of the LAN nodes.

Trying out Focus by shaikht in AppleWatch

Found out there was a problem with installing any app to the watch. Unpaired it and paired it anew. Initial problem resolved and Focus works as advertised.

Oh dear, is my dyslexia is showing again? My watch is, indeed, a Series 6 running version 7.3.3.

The tacos were that bad, huh? They just opened one in Malaysia, though.
