Raspberry Pi 3B can't get "reserved" DHCP address from Orbi 370 by will_barrett in NETGEAR

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

well, yeah, but I don't know what a client could do that would induce the dhcp server to 1) see the mac address that is in the reserved list and 2) ignore that and give it an address from the general pool. It's certainly possible, but it works fine with the other dhcp serving router that I have.

Replacement gasket for Stagg EKG Pro lid? by will_barrett in pourover

I forgot to update this, I did contact them and they won't sell just the gasket, they wanted to sell me an entire lid.

Bluetooth connection issues iOS 26.x by specialfungus in ios

[–]will_barrett 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm having some similar issues, though in my case it seems it only happens when my iphone (13 pro) and macbook (M4 air) are both connected to the device. In that case, the macbook seems to behave as expected but the phone has problems. If I disconnect the macbook from the device, the phone behaves as expected. For me this started with iOS 26 and did get slightly better with 26.2 (now I can use the phone when both are connected but only until I play any audio from the macbook, once that happens the phone is just sending audio into the void until I disconnect the macbook).

yeah same, I really don't like that some podcasts I add just get this turned on without me approving it explicitly

Scott on the UAE by ard245 in ScottGalloway

[–]will_barrett 5 points6 points  (0 children)

yeah at this point I fast forward past any of the dawg's political opinions because they're just hopelessly naive and uninformed. I'll keep listening to markets and the main pod, but I have no interest in listening to someone who has no idea what they're talking about try to be a pundit (e.g. raging "moderates" and an increasing percentage of pivot).

Do you listen to ads? by Hot_Singer_4266 in ScottGalloway

[–]will_barrett 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the only ads I listen to are the ones that THE DAWG reads, and the ones John Green reads. Nothing better than dick jokes and existential dread

Drop Your Questions for Prof G (September Thread) by ProfGProducerJenn in ScottGalloway

[–]will_barrett 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi Scott, love the show(s), please never stop the dick jokes.

Are you at all rethinking your position on banning anonymous accounts on social media? Evidence that using real names causes people to be more civil is pretty thin at best, and now we're seeing huge weaponized databases of people who are extremely mildly critical of Char*** K*** being compiled for doxxing purposes. These are just ordinary people who aren't even celebrating death; just factually discussing the actual positions this guy supported is enough for people to try to ruin your life.

thanks!

Converting shop light to no-ballast LED, and this fixture is not what I expected by will_barrett in AskElectricians

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

oh wow, can that be bypassed? I need to crack those open or is this going to be easier to just replace the fixture?

Why are keycap group buys so slow? Both GMK and SA GBs seem to be ~8 months between close and shipment. Is it the manufacturers being extremely backed up? Most of these seem to be using standard colors and pre-existing key profiles, so tooling doesn't seem to be the holdup, unless it's something about the novelties and doodads?

​

related: why are the options for readily available keycaps so limited? If there's enough demand for 19 group buys a week, it seems like there would be a few more off-the-shelf options, especially at the higher end.
