Lol

Well, your post says otherwise.

You have the intent to do actions that could impact the housing/land market.

BUT you noted that people can’t live on agricultural land where you are at just now. so that makes a big difference, and had you of made that clear your post might have been a little bit more well received.

So I think that is an interesting idea but you are still going against the grain there.

There are many people here that are very against the exact thing you are trying to do, so the reddit quip you made is kinda backwards lol.

Please no.

This is already a big problem we have with the world today, people trying to make money from land and housing. We need less people doing shit like this. Causing housing market issues just to make money.

Also, it might backfire on you. More “clutter” is more work/cost for a prospective buyer. You would need to be restrictive to buyers that specifically want your style, which could put you in a position of discrimination.

You could say, “but I’m only one person, it’s not going to make a difference” not thinking about the millions of other people out there doing the same thing. Don’t do this, just sell it and move on if you’re going to sell it.

Yup, you can turn it off.

It’s not overly difficult to get to the setting either.

That’s fair, just pointing out in my case that I don’t/didn’t need to login to anything and have full functionality of my TV.

The only logins I would need to do would be for streaming service apps, IF I was actually using the TV OS to watch stuff. Otherwise everything works fine.

I have an Amazon fire TV.

It is not connected to anything, and everything works fine. I just hooked up my shield to it and use that, but basic tv functions (settings and whatnot) work just fine without being logged in.

Thank you for the explanation.

I did notice that they said HDMI/DP but didn’t really put two and two together to understand that it was for each port. Makes more sense now.

Also didn’t know what the starship/Matisse was either.

Thank you, that helped.

You aren’t wrong in the bigger picture, but the fact that I can change to the highest resolution and I get essentially 0 buffer time and it just automatically starts playing at the higher resolution tells me that the bandwidth is there between my device and whatever server I end up connected to that is hosting the data. Otherwise I would likely have a slight delay of a few seconds for it to buffer as it pulls down the data.

And even if you select high resolution preferred in settings, they will absolutely serve that shit at a low resolution forcing you to manually select the resolution every damn time.

Yes YouTube my connection is absolutely fast enough to watch at the max resolution you can serve, don’t pretend it’s my connection to cover for your intentional bumping down in resolution.

True but when the camera pans around you can see what appears to be construction vehicle and also no cones or signs.

There should be cones/signs on both ends of construction.

It does look like they have a flagger from the shadow. Still, if there’s no cones or signs that not good enough. Also to my previous point, they shouldn’t be doing whole ass sections of road like that. It should be split and driveways should be coned off to prevent this from happening.

Yeah, this is a facepalm on the construction company. I don’t think I have ever seen a road like that done all at once in both sides. Especially in a residential area.

On top of that cones/signs do not seem to be anywhere in sight.

That is really shady. Unless you live in a rent controlled apartment I’d be curious if they even have legal recourse if you used another provider unless there was damage to the apartment.

You could probably force the complex to let you use whatever provider you wanted as long as the infrastructure (conduits in the ground etc) is there and it probably is. But I would likely be a very annoying fight.

More than likely they are getting a kickback from the ISP to inform users that they are the only option.

We have a (kind of) similar situation here. Our complex has these devices installed by the local electric company that turns our water heater on and off on some randomized schedule that is claimed to be based off of our usage and the local time. We were never told about this device and it’s not in our contract. On top of that, the property management group gets a kickback for every one that is installed in a unit.

We don’t have the most stable schedules (random schedules, night shift, day shift, etc) so of course the device couldn’t figure it’s shit out and was just shutting our water heater off at different times. I had to call the power company to have them disable it.

There has been a history of corporate things like this happening where providers do shady shit, kinda like gangs having their own territory and “agreements” not to sell dope in each other’s area to keep their profits stable and not mess with each other or whatever other reasoning it may be.

My point is, there is more than likely some shady business practices going on between the ISPs and the property management.

Why does your apartment management have a say in it?

If there are other providers in the area then you likely already have lines running to your place and shouldn’t need their sign off on it.

Similar SF story, down at Fisherman’s Wharf, during COVID, two people on the sidewalk just getting it on lol.

Same, I’ve always just rounded up. Even when it comes to things like .50¢ I still just round it up to the next dollar.

And OPs “Pstpstpst” requires too much enunciation. Pspsps is where it’s at.

I figured it out.

I was already headed the right direction by using something like this…

<button text=“Hold Enter” ontap=“enterhold” ondoubletap=“enterrelease” />

But for whatever reason it seems to ignore a double tap to release it, maybe I’m just too slow on tapping lol. I changed it to onhold=“enterrelease” and it works like intended.

Coulda just flew to Oregon for that one lol. You can catch them up on haystack rock.

I bet it was still an awesome experience you had none the less.

Panay monitor lizard.

My buddy was trapping monitor lizards for us to eat and we caught one of those. He recognized it and told me that they were endangered.

We did NOT eat it. It went back into the forest, unharmed.
