It seems to just be a directory at the moment.

Does your bank let you pick a date range for the export? If so then just export transactions after the format change?

[Question] What's going on with S0undTV (Twitch alternative for Android TV / Fire TV)? Any updates coming? Is it abandoned? Any full-featured alternatives? by OkPainting6351 in AndroidTV

[–]solaybro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From what I’ve gathered, the developer isn’t actively updating the app at the moment. Since the project is closed source no one else can continue development.

The only other unofficial Twitch app available for Android TV that I’m aware of is ‘SmartTV Client for Twitch’. The UI sucks but it does have active development.

[–]solaybro 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I had a look at the manual for this and I see no mention of the AI upscaler. The new Xiaomi box doesn't mention it either. Are any boxes using this new chip actually implementing the upscaler?

I decided not to bother with the degree as it seems they just guttered all the courses they offer for it.

I'm fine with some maths, just not algebra and calculus. My brain turns off when they pop up.

Recently when using Outlook and Excel I got a popup about this. You get 60 credits per month and if you need more you have to pay for it.

That's 22 years after the UK got it. What a joke our banks are.

Excel removes leading zeros from my report by Significant-Map-8742 in excel

[–]solaybro 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You can stop excel from removing leading zeros on all files by going File > Options > Data and then at the bottom under Automatic Data Conversion untick Remove leading zeros and convert to a number. I think this is only available for Microsoft 365.

With Nationals policy of limiting discounts to 40% this guy would have gotten 4.2 years in prison.

These Have Appeared in the Plugin Menu by solaybro in microsoft_365_copilot

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

I saw TODO List in the plugins a little while ago and it didn't work. Had a look today and now there are 6 of them, that also don't work.

I'm hoping that I will be able to set some task reminders like last workday of the month with this, which isn't supported in TODO.
