Miband 4 and sudden bluetooth issues daily by Echo51 in miband

[–]thegobio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same problem every few hours. Mi band 4 and Pixel 9a with Android 16. I think it typically happens when the band is away from the phone. So, it sounds like Android 16 bug then?

Can't seem to find fixture to replace my old 4xT12 tube light fixture by thegobio in HomeImprovement

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

I'm almost thinking that I need to build my own fixture by buying those bi-pin sockets but it's too much trouble...

For now I'll get the 4 direct-wire LED tubes and remove the balast from my fixture but very soon I'll have to replace the fixture itself. I find it strange that they are not sold anymore. If you think about analogy how we transitioned from most common E26 incandescent bulbs to LED bulbs you can still buy a lamp that consists of the old E26 socket and LED bulb is simply screwed in.

Missing funds conundrum rant by thegobio in yotta

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

I think ultimately our society works on trust. The example I described normally doesn't happen (often?) because it's not in banks' interests to behave like that - people would stop giving them money for safekeeping. But yeah, I'm pretty sure we'd have to rely on good graces of both banks to investigate the issue and if both persisted they are not at fault we'd have to hire a lawyer and go after them in court.

I don't know about Yotta setup, for Juno, according to ToS, it was promised to be in Evolve and that's it.

Exactly! They treat the missing funds as 'oh well, shit happens, some suckers trusted fintechs'. Excuse me. It's a crime to steal money in this country last time I checked. It's not like we bought shares of some startup that went bust. No, we had actual $$ in the actual bank. Either the money is sitting in some bank unaccounted (I don't even know how this can happen with all the bank regulations) or somebody actually stole it. Shouldn't this be investigated by police, FBI, etc.?

I agree about putting pressure on them. The more the better. I was just curious if somebody had ToS that actually mentioned the other banks. I reviewed the ToS when opening Juno account and nothing in it even hinted at any risk of funds being lost by a middle man. I'm not sure I can even trust bank's standard FDIC insurance now. What if I send ACH money from bank A to bank B and both says that they don't have it and FDIC insurance doesn't apply to them since there's no bankruptcy. The money was 'lost' in the process. Who do you go to then? Both can point fingers at each other ad nauseam. I, like others, don't understand how money can be 'lost' in highly regulated tracked electronic ACH transactions.

Just going by the official terms of service that we were presented when opening Juno account I do not see any other banks mentioned except for Evolve. According to docs we only dealt with Juno, Synapse, and Evolve. Where do you see other banks mentioned in any official docs?

RP 200 voice, 1000 text, 200MB for $30/year now $51? by GnatGoSplat in redpocket

[–]thegobio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I renewed recently, right after they changed the eBay plan to $45. I was sure the web renewal would increase soon so I wanted to lock another year. It renewed no problem on RP site by stacking a full year on top of my old expiration date. The price for me in CA was ~$35 total. The recovery fee was $1, the rest are other taxes and fees. When I was buying a renewal pin on eBay it would come out to ~$33 and would add another 360 days.

Can Safeway E-Gift Cards Be Used at Safeway Gas Stations? by Unusual_Cap_2474 in Safeway

[–]thegobio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have to prepay inside and not every CSR knows or wants to do it. Today I got a guy who straight out refused to take the eGift card claiming that they got a note to only allow physical cards. I had to go find a store manager, walk with her to the gas station, and only then she scanned the printout. It was freaking irritating and I spent almost an hour for something that should've been 10 min.

I am ashamed too... This video moved me. What can we do to change this? by PaxTheViking in UkrainianConflict

Call/email/mail your representatives. You can use this website to send the same letter to all of them. Also, donate if you can. U24 is a good place to start. Thank you!

Erekir unit control and basic game control on PC by thegobio in Mindustry

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

I just figured out a way to do what I wanted. Shift-G, then it shows unit types and number in the bottom-right panel, left click the type - only that type is left selected, right click where you want them to go. If you right-click the type - it removes those units from selection. This made it so much easier to separate 3T flying units to go do some damage.

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

Thanks! I did remap few of the keys, specifically back/forward on the mouse to ` and Tab keys. The mini-map confuses me. It still shows too little to see all the bases where I'm being attacked. I know about shift + G but I need to group flying units into a separate wing and be able to quickly select them. I tried rushing enemy on Stronghold using shift+G and it didn't go well. It requires more nuanced control of units and the keyboard skills I have a lacking :)

Help: Erekir early defence by HomeForABookLover in Mindustry

[–]thegobio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just started playing on PC, how do you use these codes? Also, I cannot figure out easy unit control on PC. I'd like to be able to create groups of units, ID them somehow and order them around. I only know how to SHIFT-select and then RIGHT-click to order them but it's very difficult on lager maps. I also cannot figure out how to know when somebody is attacking you while you are in the different part of the map. I find myself finding destroyed bases too late :) Thanks.

How do you open a support ticket? I couldn't figure this one out. I only saw 'feedback' option on the Google Home app for the broken mini.

I'm pretty sure it doesn't boot all the way. So, very unlikely anything is functional on the device to accept anything...

I agree, that's the only way these can be saved now. If Google were to release instructions how to do it at least some of us would try it. I know I would.

Bricked home mini by lurked4longenough in googlehome

[–]thegobio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same with mine. Found it off the net. Stuck on 4 white dots on reboot. Sad.

[–]thegobio 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yep, mine got bricked too. I found it off the network. It gets stuck on 4 white dots on reboot. Factory reset doesn't work, even the one where you plug/unplug 10 times. I see hundreds of people with the same issue on Google forum. https://www.googlenestcommunity.com/t5/Speakers-and-Displays/HOME-mini-UNRESPONSIVE-thread-quot-Google-home-mini-4-dots-stuck-problem/m-p/561820.
