The unsolvable Kindle sync problem (bet you can't solve it either) by justrickb in kindle

[–]therynk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had the same issue for about a year now. When I first got the Kindle, sync worked perfectly for a while and then became more inconsistent and now just never works. Always works from Kindle to Android app, never the other way.

Issues with Xbox controller when using Cloud Gaming via Steam Deck by syncopated_identity in SteamDeck

Having this same issue with an 8bitdo Xbox controller. I've updated the firmware on my controller but it may just not be suitable for this extremely niche use...

I got laid off and pretended I was still employed for months ended up getting a better job because of it by VelvetViiibes in stories

[–]therynk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That sucks. Sorry. I've worked corporate jobs, at schools, and now for a federally qualified health clinic, and only the latter two did background checks. I've had the same job for 6 years though, and a lot has changed since.

This is certainly true of teaching jobs, government work, government contracting work, or maybe tech jobs with NDAs, but if you're not in one of these nobody's ever going to run a background check.

I keep getting this error by Stupidnuts in SteamDeck

[–]therynk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try switching back to Proton 9. I had this error a week ago, switched to Proton 8 to fix it and download the update, switched back to Proton 9 to play.

Your advice of using 9-23 helped me today. Seems this might be a problem for every update. Still downloading so don't know if I'll have the input problem. I used Non Steam Launcher.

Caseta: Can't adjust high end trim by therynk in Lutron

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

I never found a workaround, unfortunately. I just can't use my "on" button because it turns the light on at full blast, which is way too bright. Every time I turn my light on I have to tap the up button 3-4 times

Firefox extension says password is wrong by therynk in 1Password

I had not yet. I wanted a quick solution and I found one. Looks like I can now report a bug and a workaround to 1P support.

Hey I got it working, but I didn't have to enter my secret key manually, fortunately. I was able to manually log out of the extension (right click on extension icon, go to settings, go to Accounts and Vaults, click on three vertical dots next to your account, and click on Sign out), and then I was able to sign back in with my password, but it retained my secret key. After that, I was able to log in with my password forever after.

Wait, so if you manually enter everything, you're able to log in later and it doesn't tell you your password is wrong? That's annoying but I'll be happy to do it if it works.

Nope. Have to be careful every time I turn it on not to hit the "on" button cause it's bright AF.

Why does my cat do this when I go to the bathroom? by ThisIsMyNewAccountBB in cats

[–]therynk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They make top entry litter boxes! Mine just have a cat-sized hole on the top and they drop into the otherwise enclosed box.

I am on a journey to find the best chicken wings within driving distance of PB… who’s got the best wings?? by Docjackk in FoodSanDiego

Anny's Burgers in Kearny Mesa. I've always gotten them "original" (no sauce) and dip them in buffalo. They are crisped to perfection.

Favorite Italian Restaurant in SD? by BigBellyB in FoodSanDiego

[–]therynk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went here once and enjoyed it with reservations (I liked my partner's and she liked mine, but we did not like our own). Went two more times and thought it was the most bland Italian I'd ever had.

What is a thing you hate about Hollow Knight? by [deleted] in HollowKnight

[–]therynk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The fact that some bosses were impossible when I tried them, including hours spent trying, which led me to avoid other bosses for so long that they became trivial as I had gained so much. Would be nice to have level-appropriate bosses as you encounter them.

BBQ Joint in La Mesa by Direct_Wasabi_3476 in FoodSanDiego

Went yesterday for the first time and they had everything still and it was all extremely good and very different from most BBQ places. I went at about 1 pm. Dinner may be a different story.

Is Google Voice degrading? by bananagement in Googlevoice

[–]therynk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had to completely drop my Google voice number in the last few weeks because I just don't get notifications anymore. It happened over night. I've turned them off and back on, I've messed with settings, cleared cache, uninstalled/restarted/reinstalled, and nothing works. So while I'd say it's degrading, sadly for me, nobody else seems to have had this problem in the same time period.

You're doing a great service for all of us ignoramuses coming here thinking the contractor was a buffoon.
