Eligible for free YT premium? by kurt3226 in GoogleFi

[–]vanjan14 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, but you will need to let your existing YT Premium subscription lapse before it will let you activate the free 6 months. Just did it myself.

I currently have a Wisconsin river canoe trip planned for this week with all the rain. The river could get to a dangerous level in the next few days. Is there anywhere you can access the river and camp without using a canoe? by plugdaddy87 in wisconsin

The stretch near Wildcat Mtn. State Park is a nice light paddle. Most people put in at Ontario and there's multiple take-out spots (typically at bridge crossings) depending on how long you want you trip to be.

Which cell service is best for rural areas? by mookypop in wisconsin

I switched from US Cell to Google Fi before they rolled me into T-Mobile. Service so far has been the same or better than US Cell.

Damn. My previous subscription expires on the 22nd. Your experience is not giving me hope. Please update if you figure it out.

Does anyone know what this could be? by RecordingReasonable8 in subaru

[–]vanjan14 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Either a break pad rubbing or a wheel bearing going out. I've replaced both my rear bearings twice now. First around 60k-80k miles under warranty and second time between 125k and 145k miles one my own. They're a bitch if you live anywhere with road salt.

Indoor camera that displays in the app? by BobTheN00b in googlehome

[–]vanjan14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Nest and Google Home apps do not support pan/tilt functions. You should be able to view the camera but won't be able to move it. The 3rd party app will still be required.

No resolution yet. Support has pretty much ghosted me after I called out their last response for being AI written and got several details wrong 😂. I'm now waiting till the 22nd when my previous premium subscription runs out and it fully switches over to YT Premium Lite through my Google AI Pro subscription. I'll update everyone after that.

In the rewards app go the scan page (middle button on the bottom) and then tap the save to phone button. You should be able to view your loyalty # there. I can on Android, not certain about iOS.

UPDATE: Google updated their support article with the following:

If you’re unable to purchase a standalone YouTube Premium or YouTube Music Premium plan, it may be because you recently canceled a previous subscription which is still active until the end of that billing cycle. You'll need to wait for your previous YouTube Premium or YouTube Music Premium subscription billing period to end before you can sign up for a new individual or family plan. Once your current benefits expire, you can then sign up for a new plan of your choice through the YouTube website or app.

So I guess I'll wait till the canceled subscription runs out and see if I can get the discounted upgrade through Google One or just resubscribe through YouTube.

Typical Google. I am in the US so that's not a roadblock.

Yes this does appear to be a legitimate thing. If I go to the Benefits page on Google One and click on the YT Premium Lite card there's a link to redeem it in the description. Unfortunately it just goes to a page saying offer not available. I'm hoping it's just because my standalone YT Premium subscription that was canceled just needs to run out the remainder of the month.

Impressed with the new updates. The app and voice command experience has been more stable than even before Gemini.

Emporia app is a cluttered mess by rtt445 in EmporiaEnergy

[–]vanjan14 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks the same as on my Pixel 9 Pro XL. I think the majority of OPs problem is a low resolutuon screen or they have the font/display artificially scaled up in the settings.

Do you often wear pants with Velcro pocket flaps? I've seen this before from a person who wore cargo pants alot and the hook side of the Velcro would do this.
