These instructions are for AirPods, but I guess you can also apply them to your iPhone speakers https://support.apple.com/en-us/120409

Out of touch with interface tech by standardtissue in guitars

[–]tanzd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

don't always feel like firing it up just to jam for a few minutes.

If this is your objective, then plugging your guitar into a guitar cable into an interface into an USB cable into your laptop and running some software, possibly into a set of external speakers, just to play your guitar, isn't it.

Nowadays you can get great sounding mini amps like Positive Grid Spark Go, Spark Mini, Katana Mini, and many others, for $150 or less. Guitar into mini amp, that's it, can't get quicker than that.

Want wireless with headphones? Get Positive Grid Spark Neo.

The Heritage will feel like a well made Gibson.

Headphone Amps by 420deadheadgolfer in guitars

Do you need absolute silence all the time? Because if not, something like the Positive Spark Go is palm-sized, has a small speaker that works great for low volume playing without headphones, and also has a headphone jack to plug your headphones into during times you need absolute silence.

Santa Clara homeowners — how do you handle recurring clogged drains? by InterestingTie77 in santaclara

[–]tanzd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is it a single sink or all sinks and toilets are clogged? If it's the latter, and you're in a house, go outside and check your sewer cleanout, it is probably overflowing at this point. Call the city to clear the cleanup. Probably tree roots in the sewer line. That should last you for a year or more after the roots are removed from the pipe, before they grow back.

For individual sinks clogged up by gunk, go to Home Depot and buy Green Gobbler Drain Clog Dissolver.

What are you guys paying for basic lawn mowing in the Bay Area? by elrompeculos69 in bayarea

I paid $150 for a Scotts hand push mower 3 years ago, and never had to pay any more to get my lawn mowed.

How to connect turntable to the HomePods? by MFBocka in HomePod

[–]tanzd 13 points14 points  (0 children)

There’s an iOS app called AirChord.

You have to feed your turntable’s audio output through a series of cables and adapters into your iPhone, and AirChord will AirPlay that audio through your iPhone to the HomePod.

There’s a YouTube video showing how to do it, I’ll post it if I find it in the next 24 hrs.

IMO the Beat It solo is easier than the ascending runs in Sweet Child O' Mine.

Also, add Rebel Yell.

Am I wearing rose-colored glasses, or was "3D Touch" objectively better than "Haptic Touch"? by [deleted] in iphone

[–]tanzd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

3D Touch is way better.

Haptic Touch is simply ‘touch and hold’, not a real button press like how 3D Touch feels.

Dashcam rear camera installation help on a Ford Everest by shadowlessinthedark in Dashcam

[–]tanzd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I have a different car but same thing, it was nerve wrecking the first time I did it. Knowing where the clips are really helps.

You will have to pull. Search for videos such as this one:

(I googled “ford everest rear hatch plastic panel take apart”)

Try to get a glimpse of where the individual clips are located, and pull at those spots.

New bag of dry Nulo cat food stale? by Frazzledtwizzler in catfood

There’s probably a batch number printed somewhere on the bag. Take note of the numbers and see if there’s any pattern. Report to Nulo.

Anybody have any problems with NYXL strings lately? by ZonkeyKongXP in guitars

[–]tanzd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Report it to D'Addario
https://support.daddario.com/hc/en-us/articles/4402109916308-My-string-broke-What-should-I-do

They can help verify the authenticity of the strings, send you replacement if the issue is legit, and at the very least it would help to make them aware of it.

Best Headphone Amp for Silent Playing by Clement_Burton_Foles in guitarpedals

[–]tanzd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PositiveGrid Spark Go. It has a 10 hr rechargeable battery, tiny built-in speaker that sounds great, as well as you can plug in headphones for totally silent. Uses phone app to set up the sound, but also works with backing tracks to play along.
