This is a vent and sharing my experience, never thought I'd post something like this.
Does Amazon have a call center in India??

I usually use the Amazon chat support to connect with a live agent, but this time I've decided to speak/call a live agent about purchasing an Asurion protection plan and a problem with an order. First agent connected sounded from the US and was helpful compared to the others, but I had to be transferred to another team for "further assistance," which then connected me to an Indian lady with a heavy Indian accent. Explained the same thing slowly and in full detail, and she ended up getting frustrated mumbled having to go and hung up. After that I went through the Amazon website to request a phone call which took a while going through endless bots and got connected to another agent that had a heavy Indian accent which I immediately asked for a supervisor. He sort of didn't want to but ended up connecting to a "supervisor" which was just a tad bit more respectful but ended up not being able to help me. Requested another call from amazon one last time and got connected to another Indian lady but the background was way more quieter that I could even talk to her unlike the other agent's with the heavy accent plus the loud background that sounded like wind and other people actively talking. She basically told me they connected me with random agent's from all over the world, not sure if they automatically route the calls to India when it's near the evening since I called around 5pm. She had me check my email to a link leading to taking a picture of my delivery address which I thought was a little odd but the email did have the verified checkmark but I didn't really trust it after wasting 2 hours on the phone with no help at all. Decided to wait tomorrow to request another call and talk to a agent in the US or Canada. I received an email saying I didn't receive an item to some return/refund which I did NOT request or ask anything along the lines of that, so not sure if that'll affect my amazon account or anything. That made me more infuriated after the unhelpful and unprofessionalism. Usually never post anything like this but seriously WTF!

I have an extra RCN1 controller that I want to sell. Do I have to unbind it or can the controller connect to any compatible aircraft? In the DJI app the closest option I can find is remove device from account but isn’t that removing the aircraft and controller?

Hi all, just wondering if pilots that fly SkyWest airlines with Alaska liveries carry the trading/plane cards or only the 737’s?
Couldn’t get a clear answer on google and hope this is the right place to ask.
Thanks!

2026 SE Wind Chill Pearl

Waited 2 months and it was SO worth it to get the white colorway.

The red bow was just for the picture for those wondering.

I've been using Waymo ever since it was only invite-only; I'm not a trusted tester and have had freeway access. I remember seeing posts about being able to be dropped off near SFO at the parking lot or something along those lines. I have a flight out of SFO soon, and was wondering how I'm able to get access. Do I have to be a tester to grant access? The closest I can get is "SFO Cell Phone Lot".

Thanks in advance!

I recently lost my DJI mini 4k and wanted to sell what's left. I have 3 batteries with low cycles and the controller. Do I need to "unpair" the controller, or can anyone use it to connect to another Mini 4 K? What are some tips for my situation?

Thanks in advance!

I've been flying ever since the original Mavic mini and have gotten a mini SE and a mini 4 K in recent years. Never crashed and always very careful, except this time it FINALLY happened to me, the winds took it away, and I searched for hours. 100% my fault, but it even hurts more because I barely have any hours on it, forgot to add contact info to the memory card, and didn't buy refresh care.

My main problem is that I have 4 batteries and have fewer than 40 cycles (some at about 20). I'm not in need of another drone, but I'm not sure if I should sell those batteries. Even if I did try to sell them, I'm not sure if I can provide the cycle count without the battery being IN the drone, and it'll be difficult for the buyer to just take my word. Is there any way for someone who finds it to contact me from the serial number or any information from the drone? My plan as of now is probably to wait for another few months and see if I can somehow get it; if not, then sell the batteries and buy an Air series in the future. I only fly for fun, so I don't need another drone quickly. Any recommendations for my situation would help a lot!

Thanks in advance!

Does Apple's system discharge the battery knowing I have it plugged in most of the time?

I used to use Aldente for quite a while until I decided not to and let Apple figure it out and manage it. Once I uninstalled Aldente, it kept at 100% for about 2 weeks, and these past couple of days it got down to 80%. Will it discharge it more? Did Apple just let the battery itself drain as if I didn't plug it in, or did it force it to discharge?

I have 2 13-inch koi that started swimming very slowly, or just not moving at all, and not eating. 1 is a standard fin that stopped eating but is swimming very slowly and away from the rest. A couple of days later, the butterfly koi started doing the same and is with the standard fin one together. I've checked the water, filter, basically everything I could, and everything is normal. I also added 5 3-inch koi into the pond recently, and they have been swimming, eating, and are healthy. I'm not sure if they might've affected the 2 big ones, but they were all together like normal for about 4 days until the 2 big ones isolated and stopped.

This has never happened before. Could mating season or adding the new fish be the cause? I've even added an extra pump for more aeration, and they seem a little better (gills and mouth moved more), but still look weak or have no intention of trying to eat.

Thanks in advance!

I have a 2020 MacBook Pro M1. I've been wanting to get a monitor for a long time, so I've decided to get 1 monitor and use my Mac as a clamshell/ 2nd display. I only have 2 usbc ports, and was thinking of getting a dongle, plugging an HDMI cable from the dongle to the monitor.

Some questions I have before buying:

1. I've been looking at this Dell monitor, 24in 240Hz 1080p. Will this screen be better than my MacBook screen? (I want something better or at least the same as my mac screen)
2. I've been looking at these 2 anker dongles. Anker dongle 1 Anker dongle 2. The only difference I saw that mattered to me is that one of the HDMI supports 4k 30hz, whereas the other is 4K 60 Hz.
3. If I leave my MacBook closed with the monitor plugged in, does the system know and show everything on the monitor? After using my Mac, does the Apple logo on the top left, then sleep, mean the same if I were to close the lid without a monitor?

I'm on a budget, and this is the best solution and items I could find that fit my needs. It's my first time, and any help would be much appreciated!

I have a pond with 2 koi and a few small common goldfish. I've had these kois for almost 4 years now, and they've grown a lot (got them when they were about 4 inches and now just over 12 inches.

I have rocks in the plant area in one section of the pond. Early, I noticed a rock stuck in one of the koi's mouths (unable to close, stuck open) and let it get it out, which was unsuccessful. I used a net to scoop it out and I THINK as I was trying to scoop him out, the net forced and pushed the rock in, but I gently checked with my finger and didn't feel anything. I'm pretty sure he just swallowed that rock, but he's not on his side or anything but just opening and closing his mouth nonstop ( I usually see this happen only after feeding, so I'm guessing he swallowed that rock). After an hour, still swimming and mouth opening and closing, not eating as the others eat. Is there anything I could do in my situation? Has anyone encountered a similar situation? It's probably deep in his stomach now....

Thanks in advance!! - really don't want the worst to happen since I've watched it grow over the years.

I've just placed an order for the Corolla Cross SE hybrid in the US.

My wait time is estimated at 1-2 months, but I literally can't wait! What are some features of the car, and what things to do once it comes?

A couple of questions I have while I wait.

1. Is the self-driving reliable, and do you feel safe using it?

2. How long did you have to wait for the car?

3. How much gas was in the tank when the car came?

4. Any issues or things to look out for, like defects, etc?

5. Any recommended accessories/ products for the car?

I haven't bought a car in years and am just very excited!

Thanks for all the help in advance!
