I rarely use chicken broth and have never gotten it in a can. I got two cans and both have this brown discoloration at the top on the seams, and a couple of tiny specs floating in the can. Is this ok to use in my chicken piccata? Alternatively Ill have to use beef broth.
Neither can is expired, but I did get it from dollar general.
Basically the title. I like Capital One and Fidelity, but Capital One doesn't share pending transactions and Fidelity works awful.
What do yall use and recommend?
SOLVED See my comment.
Hi all, using paperclip with claude and deepseek.
Once I start a task, Im never able to send a message ever again. I can answer the questions in the chat, but even if I manually stop the task, I cant ask it a question. I can type and it looks ready to go, but clicking the "send" button does nothing.
For example here it was reporting an adapter failed error so I stopped it and was trying to ask it something:
Or here, I recognized one of the agents it had onboarded (deepseek v3) seemed to be going crazy and spending a lot of tokens trying to calculate the token usage of all the agents, so I tried asking it about it but couldnt hit send. I cleared my text and hit to stop button to try again, still can't hit send.
Am I misunderstanding the workflow? Feels like I really should be able to use that chat window. When I ask claude or gemini separately it says it's normal because it's working on something and you can't message it while it's working on something, which I think is it misunderstanding it.
This is a pretty fresh install.

Ive had a Soundcore Life Q30 for about 5 years now as my main headphones with my PC. I love them because they are light, fit around my glasses well, sound great even when theyre powered off just using a 3.5mm cable, etc. I don't really use the ANC because it's not great but it's come in handy when running a booth at a loud event once and on the airplane.
I started a new job and figured I'd just get the same thing, so I did, and it feels very different. Very harsh audio (both bluetooth and powered off / wired) with very deep bass a bit painfully strong (more bass you can feel than hear), middle lows non-existent, and a bit of a tinny sound overall despite still having that cranked low-bass which makes no sense to me.
Worse than that is even when ANC or the whole thing is off, the pads feel very different and it just gives me a migraine to have on (and yes I made sure to open the app and set it to "normal" just to make sure I wasn't accidentally using ANC).
Did they significantly change it without changing the model number? I'm wondering if I maybe replaced the pads at some point and don't remember with how different it feels.
Something about the audio profile is just super fatiguing even just listening to conversatinal voice.
All the fire departments have these, usually saying just "FIRE" with the town department over it. Makes me laugh every morning 😁

Suddenly, all my game bar shortcuts are working without me pressing Alt. For example, when I press Win+R to open run, it starts a screen recording instead. Win+B toggles HDR. Going into settings I still have Alt as part of the keyboard shortcuts. Alt is not being pressed on anything, for example, pressing tab works as expected on UIs and websites, and Alt+tab lets me switch windows.
I've tried:
Anyone else had this?

Hi all, I work for a company that is does 2-way radio for local municipalities. We do meshtastic stuff on the side, but now an EMA department wishes to host a meshtastic repeater on their tower, and want to be able to connect to the public mesh from inside the department. We've already decided to go with some RAK wireless repeaters on the tower (one will be Meshtastic, one will be Meshc*re), which we've built a number of times already in other locations.
However, inside the department, we need something reliable and easy to use. This might also be used to talk between EMA departments, but the primary goal is to support both the major mesh networks so they can see status and distress requests from out in town during disasters.
Issue is, I've only ever built out portable nodes that I'd connect to my phone or heltek v3s in tik-tak cases that don't scream "professional grade."
What's a good option to serve as base stations to connect to a pc that aren't just little usb dongles hanging off to the side of the station? I'd also be interested in a full dedicated piece of hardware, like a desktop version of the T-Deck (with a normal sized keyboard, not like the cardputer). What do you suggest?

Description of Original Problem
I recently upgraded to an RX 9070 from an RTX 3060 ti. Tried it the quick and dirty way and wasnt getting good performance, so I reinstalled Windows which worked better.
But, I was getting an issue where the whole system would hang or monitors wouldnt wake up from idle. Upon checking AMD Fidelity, it had some conflicting info. It said there were no updates available, but in the same tab said that the current revision was like 8 releases behind the latest. I couldnt force it to update. I ran DDU and reinstalled, and that fixed it and gave me great performance.
Now, a couple weeks later, my system is hanging again, and I frequently get popups from AMD saying it detected a driver timeout or a driver issue. I just reinstalled it again.
Some online forums say windows update breaks it, but from my understanding, windows update will only push official amd drivers, and waits for it to be certified (tested to make sure it doesnt break anything), so at worst it will be a revision behind, but it shouldnt just suddenly break them. For the heck of it, I tried the suggested fix to disable updates in group policy for my gpu, but that seems to block amd fidelity from updating it too.

Completely reworked the firmware, which remains compatible with the AIOC and AIOB as well and is free for everyone!
Just got my Amazfit Blip 6. I'm on a budget (new dad) so Amazed by the battery life and snappy performance for the price! I tried one of those $10 cheap temu smart watches, which were honestly impressive for the price, but had some software shortfalls that made them unusable (it had a crown that was easy to bump, that when you rotated would change your watch face... who wants that).
The Amazfit is much closer to what I had with my Galaxy Watch Active before the screen separated when I was swimming - may it rest in peace(es), this feels like a flagship device. Yes, it's cheaper plastic on this particular amazfit model, but that makes it super light.
And dang. 10+ days of battery... that is so nice compared to having to charge it every night.
That said, there are a couple of features I really wish the watch had.
There is a voice memo app, but I was dissapointed that it was just pure voice recording, with no speech-to-text at all. I was hoping for it to make notes that were based on what I said using whisper or a similar free, light, speech to text model, or at the very least transcribe them on my phone. I don't really want to listen back to my voice later on.
As an alternative, I figured I'd tell zepp flow to "make a note, I need a 6mm adapter" or "Make a note, I need to get eggs after work." The first attempt made a calender entry for 6mm, and the second attempt was going to make a reminder for me after work. The latter of which is at least helpful, but again, I'd really like to be able to use my voice to make written notes.
Not sure if this is a good or bad feature, but my experience was this: I said "send a text to [my wife's name] saying, Love you" and it asked if the contact it found was the correct one, including reading out the full phone number which was tedious. Halfway through I moved my wrist down a bit and it put the watch to sleep, dismissing the agent. I said the same message again, it asked me including the full phone number again, I said "yes" and it asked me again. I said "yes it is." and this time it finally said "Okay, a message will be sent saying "Love you." But then, I checked, and it never sent a text.
I'd like to be able to filter out paid watch faces when searching. I get that this is likely more beneficial to me then to the face makers and Amazfit, but figured I'd toss it in as an ask.
None of these are dealbreakers for me, but some form of speech-to-text voice memo is a big wishlist item.
I have weird ears I guess. Every earbud Ive tried, usually one kind of works in my right ear, but none work in my left ear.
In my right ear, usually medium sized tips will go in and stay in unless I shake my head. The left side only the smaller ones will go in at all without falling out immediately. Then even the small ones pop out if I smile or open my mouth all the way.
I have some of the ones that wrap over the ears but those also pop out when I do anything, which doesnt fall off anymore but I cant hear it.
I found out about over-ear earbuds and got some of the moondrop pills and I was so excited. They sound good and fit well, but then I was really upset to find out that after about 2 minutes it starts to ache really bad, especially on the left ear. There's a piece of cartilage where I circled in this photo that sticks out like a mountain and is very tough, and the moondrop pills rest 80% of their weight right there. It starts to hurt fairly bad almost immediately. I tried just pushing through but it gets really distracting and continues hurting for like an hour after removing.
Im probably unreasonably upset about this, but Ive been trying for like 10 years. I love music and watching stuff in bed and headphones just arent appropriate at work or comfortable in bed.
Ironically the only pair that's ever been comfortable is the skullcandy ink'd plus which sound preytu crappy and I hate the around the neck band.
I've got the official TK11 with its included USB programming cable. Had to install the UIniversal CP210x driver because the driver the usb cable requires isn't supported on current Windows (now that 10 is EOL and no longer getting security updates).
That worked once and I was able to read the radio from chirp and from the TK11 software. However just a few minutes later and I cant read, write, update firmware, or do anything. The TK11 app fails with a .net error, and chirp fails with "bad serial data."
Anyone gotten this working?
We've got a 2 hisense u shaped air conditoners and we're having this weird issue where the compressor wont turn on. I can set it to cool, max cool, and set the temperature to 61, and with the room a 80 degrees it stays on fan and just will not kick on the compressor. No noises or anything until it finally starts.
The one on the living room only does it once and a while, usually unplugging it for a minute fixes it. The one in our bedroom just stsrted doing it all the time. I can sometimes get it to kick on by turning it to fan and back to cool again like 10 times.
Bad compressor capacitor or something? It feels more like firmware bugginess based on when it happens but not sure.
Couple things maybe related: so far it's usually like 40 or so degrees outside when we're turning it on (we live in an apartment where the downstairs neighbors blast the heat, and right outside our window is the smoking area so an open window isn't an option). Maybe it's detecting it's cool outside?
Ive also run the self-diagnostics in the app and it says the software and hardware tests fine (though it's so quick Im kind of guessing it just does an animation and nothing else lol).
Anyone had this? Im fixing to try and return it to costco but it was a gift and it's a pain to set up the support bracket.
Hi all! I applied to a job at a municipality late March with an application. I noted references were available on request. Deadline for first consideration was April 17th, so I am hoping for a reply soon (I know with municipalities it can take months) Im young for the amount of experience I have, so that might be one challenge. Now, Ive collected some additional really good references since I sent that in - Communication directors, Department Chiefs I've worked with, a DPW director, etc. All municipalities or related.

In the modern job application climate, is this a good idea, or will it come across as "desperate?" I am excited for the position as it's exactly the kind of work I want to do, but Im not desperate. Not sure if the fsct it is a municipality changes anything.
I was considering reaching out with a quick follow-up email... something like:
I wanted to pass on my list of references and some additional relevent experience Ive gained since I sent in my application on xyz date. Reference list is attached.
Additionally Ive completed some training on Netbox DCIM / IPAM network management, in case that's something the town uses or is interested in using.
I look forward to connecting and determining if this position would be a good fit.

This position would be an assistant ditector of a technology department for the town, and I think would be a really good fit. I hit all of their requirements and have some extra experience I think would be useful. Im young for the amount of experience I have, so that might be one challenge.

I have some products I sell on woocommerce and eBay. Keeping track of both can be challenging, especially for my part time fulfillment employee. Is there a free tool that would show eBay orders in the "orders" list on woocommerce? I dont care about sycing listings really.
