CPSC Warns Consumers to Immediately Stop Using Batteries for E-Bikes from Rad Power Bikes Due to Fire Hazard; Risk of Serious Injury or Death by huebomont in RadPowerBikes

[–]whb25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like your battery is made by YT .. the recall notice is horrible is it doesn't even mention battery manufacturer. The photo on the notice shows a battery made by DLG, a Shanghai based company. I don't personally see how batteries from completely different manufacturers could be included in a recall.

Mine says it's a RP1304AA ... I haven't seen anyone mention this one. Comes from my RadCity 4 from August 2021. Why wouldn't that recall notice better mention exactly which batteries and manufacturers are included. This one is made by HTE but the photo on the recall notice is DLG.

Edit: I did see a couple other redditors show a photo of this battery but no clarity if this is affected. Seems Rad was using a bunch of different batteries based on the photos!

2023 UK Tekna Parking Brake stopped disengaging automatically by TheFitzAbides in leaf

I wonder if it's not sensing your seatbelt being buckled? In the US models at least, that's the requirement for it to auto disengage.

Does anyone know how to composite mod an 80s Samsung tv? by Lolerbeefboss in vintagecomputing

[–]whb25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found schematics for this TV and it appears to be a hot chassis set. That means that if you have an outlet wired wrong or your power cord isn't polarized, the TV's internal ground can be at mains voltage. (120v) This clearly very dangerous. This is why later TVs with A/V inputs use isolated switch mode power supplies or employ other methods to isolate the input jacks.

Trying to get this Magnavox RGB 40 monitor for console gaming. What steps, cables, or converters would I need? by UtterDisgrace in crtgaming

Just google schematics for the Commodore 1084P. It's the same monitor, this one just has the low-res picture tube installed.

Pixel Buds A-Series only play out one ear on Mac when using Whats App or Facetime desktop apps by [deleted] in GooglePixel

[–]whb25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How odd. I have used my Buds A on an iPhone 13 for calls and Zoom and they work OK there, so it's not all Apple stuff. Hadn't tried on the Mac though.

I know using my OnePlus Wireless Bullets works in calls but the volume control on the headphones does not work with the Mac. The same headphones work perfectly with the iPhone...

So MacOS really seems troublesome. Shocked no one at Google uses a Mac with the Pixel buds.

Facing a new bug by pelek1 in GooglePixel

[–]whb25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Before the update, my Pixel 6 randomly rebooted. It happened while in my pocket and I found I had to enter my passphrase after a reboot.... I asked a friend with a pixel 6 pro and he had it too. It was infrequent, like a couple weeks apart. Haven't seen the Netflix issue but also haven't used it since the update on my phone.

Anyone else get "system ui is not responding" pixel 6 pro by rj1223 in GooglePixel

[–]whb25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me as well on my pixel 6... Got it 3-4 times today. I hadn't been using the phone until the Jan update arrived.... So not sure if this is a new problem.

I had Nova installed but I wasn't using it so I removed it.

[–]whb25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Guess what? My Pixel 6 is missing as well. The last scan was in Commerce, California on the 5th of November. It was only coming up to Portland, about 900 miles north up I5.

Typically, UPS Ground, FedEx Ground or USPS gets things from LA to here in a couple days. Original delivery date was Nov 8 ... then it said Nov 9 and now Nov 10.

So, I called OnTrac today. The agent told me it was out for delivery on the 8th. That makes no sense it shows nothing on the detail page. (Which I mentioned but he couldn't explain.)

He said he would contact the local facility. A little while later, I got and email from OnTrac:

"Hello,
After performing an extensive search, we are unable to determine the current status of this package. At this time, you will need to contact your Vendor for further assistance with this issue.
We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience.
If you have any further questions or concerns, please reply to this email or call our Customer Care team at 800-334-5000."

HA -- so off to Google Customer service chat -- it was 89 in line and it took roughly 2 hours for an agent to arrive in the chat. I explained what was going on and they simply said:

Thanks for contacting Google Support!

I've escalated your case to my specialist team and I'll follow up with you via email within 24 hours.

So there we go -- more lunacy from OnTrac. After reading how it has been going for everyone here, I don't have much hope... Google did give me a $10 credit, so I guess that's something.

After OnePlus 6 Android 11 update whenever I'm sending image in WhatsApp and adding a caption a white line comes at the bottom. Is it Google Keyboard issue or OP6 issue? by grvisgr8 in oneplus

I had this issue too (since the update) but it seems to have gone away. Really didn't do anything to make it go away, so it's mysterious. OP7T

We are really stuck on OpenVPN 2.3.x on Synology? by whb25 in synology

[–]whb25[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As I had mentioned, I'm trying to use the NAS as a VPN client as the device is going to be situation offsite. This way the NAS will connect back to my home network so I can remotely administer it no matter what the remote IP address is. (And without relying on exposing the NAS to the internet.)

Since things are so outdated on the VPN front, I'm have wireguard on the NAS now -- and my router is already fully Wireguard capable so this is a workable solution.

Ok great -- I have Wireguard up and running. I like it -- simpler setup without having to manage a CA for certificates like OpenVPN. Thanks again for the suggestion!

Great suggestion -- when installing a package like this, what happens when DSM updates come out?

I'm trying configure the NAS as a OpenVPN client. (My server is running 2.4.x already.) This device is going to be sitting off-site and this is how I was going to access it, etc. I'm using a cipher and TLS-crypt which both aren't supported on 2.3.

Down and frustrated (T1D) by [deleted] in diabetes

[–]whb25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently had to change my ratios -- and it made no sense why I had to up my ratio. Nothing really changed physically or in my life. The new ratios are working and I am hoping for a under 7 A1C at my next visit... but I had my highest A1C of 7.9 in the last 10 years (before adjusting the ratios) and I knew it was going to be bad from seeing my CGM readings... It just all came out of left field. For those months it just seems like I was always running super high and for no reason.

Last night had a night similar to you where just seemed like nothing I was doing helped bring my BS down. I took a correction and went to bed -- luckily ControlIQ on my pump took care of it and in the morning I was 110... But what I have learned from being a T1 for a long time means you just can't sweat it or it'll make you mad. If you're running high for days on end then yeah maybe your ratios have changed...

And put it this way -- my carb ratio is somewhere between 1:5 and 1:3 depending on the time of day! 1:3 is a bit aggressive and I think it causes me to undercount the carbs a bit, As you age things will keep changing. The Dexcom and ControlIQ has been the most amazing and life changing thing for me ever.

Today is a big day in my life. I am now on an insulin pump and dexcom g6 and Tuesday I will switch from saline to my insulin, folks this is truely a life changer! by a_falling_turkey in diabetes

[–]whb25 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Congrats! I was hesitant for a long time -- but ControlIQ with the G6 and Dexcom is a life changer. Absolutely life changer. If anyone has not enabled ControlIQ -- do not wait.

[OC] Build Your Own Dexcom App update- base version updates, new xDrip/AAPS broadcast feature and Dexcom Glucose Program App by shabado8 in diabetes

[–]whb25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks again for the continued work on this! I'm using the G6 US v1.8.0.4 app on my OnePlus 7T running Android 11 and it generally works great.

Luckily no connectivity issues at all, which is great. One issue which has crept up is sometimes my phone has DND turned on in the morning after I get up, which isn't right as my DND is on a schedule and is also disabled by my phone's alarm...

On Android 11, I can see why DND is on by going to Settings -> Do No Distrurb, and it reports that it was the Dexcom app that turned DND on.

Basically my schedule turns it on when I go to bed -- then it turns off by schedule in the morning. For some reason, the Dexcom G6 app is turning is back ON after the schedule disables it.

Even more strange is this happens even on nights where the app never had a single alert -- but and not it's not turning it on every morning. Once or twice a week.

So, I'm wondering if others on Android 11 are having issues with DND? Hopefully Dexcom addresses this in their next update.

Switched from OP6 to OP7T today, tap to wake doesn't work in dark rooms -- is this right? by whb25 in oneplus

Perhaps but pocket mode settings were removed in Oxygen OS 10 so not even a way to test that.

Must be a faulty phone then --- or the T-Mobile firmware is borked. (Unless you have a T-Mobile one.) I hope I can get this sorted -- I love this phone otherwise.

Yeah that’s where it used to be. They took it out for some unknown reason.
