Seen in one of the Carolinas today.

I have replaced the $30 drain pump twice already, and the same issue has popped up again. Is their some type of maintenance or cleaning I should be doing that might prevent the pump failing yet again?

The filter trap at the bottom looks the normal amount of yucky, mostly dog hair.

My wife is going to want to buy a new machine when I tell her that it broke again, and I don't think I can argue my case a third time! Worse, she'll want a new dryer too so that they match.

It's an WM2101HW, if that helps. The serial number starts with a zero, which supposedly indicates that it was built in a year ending in a 0, so it is either 16 or 26 years old, which I suppose is a good run.

I just set up the family calendar feature, but since I have my kids' google accounts on my phone, I see multiple copies of each event in my calendar! Is there a workaround? Any way to sync an account but NOT the calendar?

Running Nixos with Gnome, and I have Piper with libratbag for my Logitech many button mouse.

I'd like to toggle a pair of keyboard keys up and down together via a mouse button. Hit the mouse button: both keyboard keys are pressed and stay pressed. Hit it again: both keyboard keys come unpressed.

Piper doesn't seen to support it, and I was looking at the Gnome accessibility settings without success.

Happy for suggestions!

At a small restaurant in Tennessee, USA.

I don't like that they asked an LLM to graphic design the entire menu, but why in the name of robot jesus did they look at the result and say "great. Love it. Print 100 copies."

The food pictures made me physically ill. They're really upsetting! I told the Waitress, who agreed that the pics were awful, and the manager/owner(?) who didn't seem to care.

There are LLM inconsistencies all over, too, like icons changing from page to page.

I'm not sure if this is a Lemmy problem (I'm a Sh.itjust.works local) or a Voyager one.

As long as I have used Voyager, maybe a year, I have seen two problems that cause some posts refuse to leave my Home feed.

1. Sometimes posts that I saw and voted on months or weeks ago come back to my Home feed and I need to try to make Voyager recognize them as "read". I click on the post, and go to the comments, and remove my habitual upvote and put it back.

2. Sometimes a post from the last day or two refuses to leave the Home feed no matter what I do. I vote several times, follow the link/view the full image several times, and check the comments a few times.

Why are these posts sticky!

This song has run in my head for twenty years, and I only know it as the menu music for Need for Speed: Underground 2!

I recently heard a man my age's ringtone go off with this song, and I asked "Underground 2?" and he said he been waiting over a decade for someone to recognize it!

Hi,

When I hand my phone to one of my family members, she needs the text size turned up, the brightness at full, and dark mode turned off. Is there an app or shortcut I can use to toggle multiple settings at once?

Hey. Starting relatively recently, when I wake from sleep, some windows (mostly the file explorer Gnome Files) are blurry as in the screenshot. Moving the window or passing the cursor over the blurry area often helps, but sometimes I need to close the window and re-open it.

Here are the sections of my various .nix files that look relevant. I'm worried I have a bad video card!

    nvidia.modesetting.enable = true;
    nvidia.powerManagement.enable = false;
    nvidia.open = false;
    nvidia.nvidiaSettings = true;

Below is what looks like the relevant part of my restore from suspend from dmesg. Let me know if I can provide anything else helpful!

I use a password manager personally, but my work uses a different application. Both common names in this space.

Android lets me set one password filler, but I don't see how to go about having two active, if that's even possible.

Ideally, I'd like to keep the application/web credentials for work in the work password manager, and everything else in my personal one, and get recommendations/autofill from only the one with a matching app ID or URL saved.

Any tips?

I have both installed, but opening the work password manager every time I need it is annoying.

My nightstand lights are connected to a surge protector plugged into a Zigbee smart plug plugged into a dumb wall outlet controlled by a single dumb wall switch.

I have the smart plug set to default=On, so the wall switch works fine, and I can also turn the lights off from my phone or via an automation. All good so far.

What I WANT is to be able to turn the lights ON without getting out of bed, and irrespective of the position of the switch.

I tried putting a second smart plug in the switch-controlled outlet and making an automation to toggle the surge protector's smart plug when the switch's empty smart plug powers off/on via the wall switch, but it looks like it's not simple to detect a Zigbee device "disappearing". I found some integrations that detect zigbee devices disappearing, but those seemed more for running health checks to detect and repair moved devices than for live detection.

Any suggestions?

Edit:

Looks like a relay behind the switch will be my best bet. Thank you all!

Hi,

I bought a Lenovo M910q (i5-6500T, 16Gib RAM, Intel Mesa graphics) to play with Proxmox, but I'm dying on the first level!

After installing Proxmox from Ventoy using either the default settings or the ones from someone's guide , I get kernel panics on the first boot. As a test, I've just installed Debian on it from Ventoy with the default settings, and it seems to work fine.

I ran the Processor, Memory, and SSD checks from the Intel BIOS without any flags.

Any guesses what I've done wrong here?

Howdy.

I set up all of my old game consoles for fun, and feel like there must be a better way. I have an NES on the antenna connector (RG6?), about eight consoles on composite (Y/R/W), and four or five on HDMI. I still have my old school Composite switch, but I need more inputs, and it would be nice to be able to use the TV remote instead of getting my old bones up. My TV has two or three HDMI ports but I need a few more.

Do I just need an RF adapter, a bigger Composite switch, and some kind of HDMI switch, or is there another option I'm not thinking of?

Thanks!

I'm hoping to find a turtleneck with a turtle on it, or something with a similar vibe. It's not surprisingly difficult to find listings on Etsy or elsewhere that gave both the words "turtle" and "turtleneck".

I'm going to play a turtle person in an upcoming TRRPG game, and I wanted a fun shirt to commemorate it. I'll buy a plain green and figure out an iron-on patch if I must, but this feels like something that should already exist!

Would appreciate another set of eyes.

Generally, do the general-purpose mutual funds from the big brokers like Fidelity, Vanguard, Schwab include international companies, or is it mostly US companies?

I'm interested in investing in other countries, but I don't know if it's strictly necessary to choose a fund that says "European" or "International" on the tin as I'd like a mix. Is there an advantage or tax issue with investing in a European broker? Any recommendations there?

Thanks, folks.

Howdy folks,

Pixel 6 Pro was working fine when i went to bed on Monday with no update notifications or anything interesting. Tuesday morning, it was off and wouldn't turn on. I've tried a few things and I'm all out of ideas.

Held down power for 30s to get it to hard reset. It showed a black background and the grayscale G and progress bar for over an hour.

Held down power and volume down to get to the fastboot menu. I can get to Rescue Mode and Recovery Mode. Stupidly, they both show a broken android character and "no command", and you need to hold power and click volume up to get to the actual menus. Why in the world did they add this step, when you've already done the work to get to the fastboot menu? Anyway. Neither menu has options for clearing cache, mounting as a USB MTP device, or enabling ADB debug mode.

After who knows how many times booting into fastboot and playing around, following various XDG, Stackoverflow, and listicle suggestions, now it boots up to black background with the colorful word "Google" and stays there forever. Is that progress? I can't tell.

lsusb doesn't list the phone while it's off, while in fastboot, in recovery, or in rescue. I used the "mount /system" option but that didn't do anything useful. I installed Android Studio, but it doesn't detect the device either. The Google Pixel Repair page doesn't see the dang thing.

The "recovery logs" option doesn't indicate anything that I can see as a reason to fail booting - it looks like only logs of the recovery mode itself.

I finally resorted to the "wipe to factory default" option with a heavy heart.

It booted to a white background and colorful "Google", but never went anywhere beyond.

I let the battery die, and plugged her back in. Now I need to hold the power button for 30s, and see the white screen with colorful Google, and then the broken android character with "no command"! I appear to be in rescue mode.

lsusb on my computer detected it as "18d1:d001 Google Inc. Nexus 4 (fastboot)" , which is fascinating. A "Pixel" device showed up in my file browser for about a minute, but trying to mount it gave an "Unable to open MTP device" error. I installed mtpfs to see if I could mount the device, and the Rescue Mode menu announced that an "ADB update timeout" had occurred. I hadn't triggered one from either end. Hmm. lsusb no longer shows the device. Then the device disappeared from the file manager and from lsusb. sigh

I triggered a reboot from the Rescue Mode menu, and I'm back on the white background with the colorful Google, and no movement. Interestingly, I can see the ghosts of the top status bar. It almost looks like burn-in, but I keep everything on dark mode and the ghost is darker than the background, so I dunno.

So.

Any ideas? I'm thinking I gave it a fair effort, and it's time for a new phone.

TIA,

Clay

Was going to leave a bug report for pictures in a spoiler not working. Example: https://mander.xyz/comment/24233134

I see the spoiler tag, but expanding it shows an unclickable link markdown instead of the link or picture.

Anyway, I updated to be sure it wasn't fixed in your rapid updates (thank you!), and found that my accounts had been forgotten.

Probably not a bug but a feature fix?

The Profile > Saved page still has Search and Sort buttons at the top, but they don't apply to the Saved posts and comments, instead they exit the Saved page and go back to the normal feed.

I think the search and sort buttons should apply to the Saved items when I am on the Saved page, or the buttons should be hidden.

Previously, when I collapsed the Favorites and Moderator menus, they stayed collapsed across app open and closing. Now, favorites seems to open again every time I open the app.

Doesn't really bother me but it feels unintentional.
