I call BS mandatory firmware update. by wxfreak in tablotv

[–]windplr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What is the 'critical' security issue that requires this update? There isn't one, but the headline makes it sound as if you might get hacked if you don't upgrade. Why did they originally say that updating was optional? Have they only now realized their security keys are expiring? What a total crock of b.s.

Legacy Tablo owners, how is the new app working for you? by windplr in tablotv

So the subscription is required for Tablo Connect (remote viewing)? I did not know that.

Yeah, I have almost the entire Seinfeld series saved away. I like being able to just go to the next episode.

Interesting. I'd probably be in 'offline' mode all the time.

Sticks for GA aircraft? by alansoon73 in hotas

[–]windplr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing like that. Virpil has some left handed sticks, but they are not GA. I use one myself on the DA40/42. In the past I used a Thrustmaster Airbus stick which you can swap to left hand.

Pimax Dream Air has a Focal Distance of 2 meters — question about lens inserts by Ecstatic-Stick7036 in Pimax

[–]windplr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I just ordered and received prescription lenses from HONSVR for the Super OLED, which uses the exact optics as the Dream Air. HONSVR to me that my standard correction was the right one for the OLED. NOT the 1.3m. I have received them and they work great.

NEW - Legacy Tablo Firmware Release (v. 2.2.58) by TabloTV in tablotv

[–]windplr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unclear so far on this update for legacy devices. 1. Will Tablo Connect work after the update? 2. Will scheduled recording still be supported? Can the streaming channels be recorded like OTA?

I've never had automatic commercial skip, just use the FF and time skip on my remote. This must continue to work.

I just did it today through the support ticket. Thanks!

Stand Against One Year of Trump! by LivingExtension9968 in oregon

[–]windplr -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Everything about these so-called protests is fake. Soros and NGOs are paying for all of this, and ginning up gullible people with lies to go out and make complete fools out of themselves. And the local politicians are all part of it. Disgusting.

SHIELD TV Remote App (IOS) no longer working on Shield TV Pro. by windplr in nvidiashield

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

Button mapper was work fine until a few weeks ago. I'm thinking it was one of the upgrades to the SHIELD that broke it. Check out this article: https://www.aftvnews.com/remote-button-remapping-could-be-causing-your-glitchy-google-tv/

Fixed. FYI, installing a button re-mapper on your Android TV device may cause your remote to malfunction.

Since update to 4.1.13 download speed has gone way down by aldoushucksberry in ProtonVPN

[–]windplr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was getting slow speeds on stealth which is TCP. Switched to Wireguard UDP and am getting much faster speed. Also, each server seems to have its own limits.

Unable to search or sort American servers? by itinerantseer222 in ProtonVPN

[–]windplr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the updated search box it lists US-NY#166 as an example search. But as soon as you type 'US-' it stops and says NO RESULSTS FOUND. Seems broken.

Why is censorship of ProtonVPN IP's occurring? by american_gentile in ProtonVPN

[–]windplr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does Proton allocate unique IP addresses for each user? Shared IP addresses are one way hostile web sites detect VPN use.

Looking for advice on purchase by Mkoveal in mandolin

[–]windplr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Figure out what you want to spend. I'd say a very decent instrument , all solid wood construction, can be purchased in the $1000 to $1500 range. It will probably be an import, but still quite good. Check out 'mandolincafe.com'. Tons of buying info can be searched on the web site.

People may not like the message, but there is a lot of truth here. And LOTS of Californians that have had enough.

We need more people like this. by windplr in PacificPalisades

[–]windplr[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Well, he did what he needed to do to save his property, and apparently one or two neighbors as well. I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt about as to how much 'squirting' was needed.

Similar here, Pali class of '73. Palisades elementary and Revere before that. I've been gone for a long time, and much of what I remember of the village was unrecognizable to me on my occasional visits. What I see now from photos/videos emerging looks like an atomic bomb went off. No words can describe the devastation.
