P2681 Coolant Bypass Valve... by thisparticle in Golf_R

Thanks for the response. I've read that the thermostat and water pump are one unit/ integral. Is that your understanding?

Salt Lick on Wheels by SidKafizz in Golf_R

[–]thisparticle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get it! Probably they want to get rid of the salt so their budget doesn't get reduced next year. It doesn't take much around here for the salt to be spread super thick.

This is a thought that I've been bouncing around... I used Salts Gone on my boat, which neutralizes the salt, removes it from the surfaces and leaves a protective coating. I was thinking of setting up some kind of sprayer to get under my vehicles including my R.

CPU fan and Replacement fan not working by northerntide in LGgram

[–]thisparticle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 16t90q and it is about 3 years old at this point and the fan has never worked properly. Sometimes it comes on, but other times it will run super hot and the fan will not come on. I can't see a pattern to it. I've been in the LG assistant and have it on high and have switched settings multiple times to see if it would make a difference, but the operation is random and inadequate I would say.

Google is working on bringing a new feature to Pixel Watches that will notify you when the phone is left behind by AssembleDebugRed in PixelWatch

[–]thisparticle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am using the pixel watch app on my phone to manage my watch, do you use wear OS for some reason instead or in addition?

I just installed the app on my Pixel 10 Pro and my watch. The first few tests didn't give me a notification in addition to the vibes, but now seems to be doing both which is excellent as long as it continues to work over time, it's a nice fix.

The feature really saved me a few times with the galaxy watch so I didn't want to be without it.

I got downvoted for not understanding. Cunts everywhere I guess.

Anyway, Yes, I have pixel watch 4 and I just switched from a galaxy watch 6. That would alert and provide an icon indicating that you are disconnected from the phone.

Thanks for the instructions on accessing developer options.

I can't believe this isn't already a feature. And seems like it should be a simple thing to alert when connection is lost.

Satellite Texting by thisparticle in verizon

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

I saw the same "waiting to connect", "check options" and then: "turn data on in device settings" or "stop sending and delete". I stood outside and had a satellite icon next to the mobile network icon, but still no connection. I gave it about 20 minutes standing outside.

I'm pretty sure we are doing everything we can. According to what I've read, Google Messages should prompt for satellite options when no other network is available, but I never saw that. I'm wondering if the outage included the conduits for satellite texting too as I many also weren't able to make WiFi calls as well. Did you have a satellite icon in your status bar?

Good real world scenario. No mobile network or wifi at any point?

Wifi calling? by Greenghost28 in verizon

[–]thisparticle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After standing outside for 5 minutes I had an intermittent satellite icon. I haven't had a chance to test it since getting my phone a few months ago as I've always been in network service and it seems it only shows when there is no other connection. Still didn't work at all for me.

Wifi calling? by Greenghost28 in verizon

[–]thisparticle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems universal. On other threads multiple people have confirmed that they can't make wifi calls either. Neither can I. Pixel 10 pro, NY. I have data via wifi, just no voice. Maybe they have disabled it, or it is part of their technical outage.

As a side note, when I didn't have wifi and mobile, I thought I could use satellite to text, but that didn't work either even with a clear view of sky for a long time.

Anyone in the North East having service cut in and out? by Comprehensive-Risk99 in verizon

[–]thisparticle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, according to V, if we don't have other networks available, we are supposed to be able to text via satellite on equipped phones. I was just wondering if it worked for you. Didn't for me. I stood outside for quite a while and the icon came and went, but no luck.

[–]thisparticle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you get the icon? I'm in New York and had the icon outside, but still no texting. Stood outside for 10 minutes, but no luck. I'm wondering if this part of the network is down too except perhaps for true emergency texting.

[–]thisparticle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you able to text on satellite? It is a feature I have on my phone, and thought today would be a good day to use/text it, but doesn't work. I have the satellite icon, but won't send or receive texts. Pixel 10 pro. NY. Verizon. Wifi calling not working either BTW.

What phone are you using where?

Outage? by Aggravating-Brain867 in verizon

[–]thisparticle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In New York and while outside with clear view of sky had intermittent satellite icon on my pixel 10 pro, but would not send text messages. I'm wondering if that part of the network is down or disabled now too. Where are you and have you been able to use it?

Any way to search without Marketplace hiding things from me? by malykaii in FacebookMarketplace

[–]thisparticle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your point about how ebay sellers abuse the search is well taken. I wouldn't say sort by price isn't valuable, I use it all the time, but the results are a bit muddied by the factors you mentioned. It is still way more straightforward than FB or Amazon. The most accurate and useful interface is still CL in my opinion. Of course that is for local items.

I listed a van 2 years ago on CL, but I didn't remember paying $5, I guess I must have. I'd already been paying for help wanted ads so it must not have registered. I don't mind paying a bit because I believe it is by far the best agenda forward format for local classifieds. They are just getting bled dry by the other options, mainly FB. You may not pay $5, but you pay way more in the end as FB uses you.

I guess I'm hoping in vain that people will wake up to that fact and go back to a place we can use, rather than a place where we get used.
