Question on using AA with YouTube Music

I mostly listen to downloaded musice on YT Music and AA. Sometimes when I go into a store, come back out, restart the car and it will continue where I left off. Most times it does not. Is there something I can do so AA remembers and continues where I left off?

Also, there is so much I don't know about AA. Is there a Wiki or something where I can read rather than bothering you folks?

How long should it take to load a video?

I love SmartTube. My only issue is it seems to take too long to load videos. I would like to know if I have set something wrong or if that is just the way it works.

Mine averages about 5 seconds to load a video. Is this normal?

Black Screen

Something new has cropped up with my nearly bulletproof A1 I am hoping someone here can help with.

In the last week or so I have had a couple of occasions the lcd screen went black as if it were asleep, but I could not tap on it to bring it to life like usual. I finally turned the A1 off and rebooted it. The screen was back to normal. I remember a firmware update recently. Could it have something to do with it?

Could ONN / Google end up blocking Stremio in the future?

I have been running Stremio now for about a month and love it. I have been running Roku. Because it is not available for Roku I bought a simple ONN streaming box for testing. The test has run so well I was going to buy the ONN 4K Pro. One thing came to mind though, is it possible that either ONN or Google could block me from installing Stremio in the future? If so, is there workaround?

Is there a better quality remote for these boxes?

I am a long time Roku user who wanted to try Stremio, but it was not available on Roku.. I bought the ONN 4K+ as a trial. I like the Google interface much better that the Roku. The only thing stopping me from outfitting all the TVs with these boxes is the remote. It feels cheap. Most specifically the circular ring around the OK button in the center. Realizing I bought the cheapy model as a trial would I get a better quality remote with the 4K Pro?

How about the comparable Google models? I realize they are more expensive, but at the remotes any better?

Can I change the resolutions shown?

Totally new to Stremio and addons. I am using Torbox with Comet and Torrentio and have enjoyed it. The only issue I have is that I have to sift through 4K and 2K streams to get to 1080P streams. My TV is only HD, so 1080P is the best it can do.

Can I somehow filter the 4K and 2K results out?

Where to start. What is it called?

I am contemplating remodeling my kitchen, den, and screened in porch. My home was built in the 1980s. The kitchen and den are adjacent rooms with 8 foot ceilings. I have no interior design skill at all. I just feel I would like the ceilings changed and the layouts changed.

What skillset am I looking for? Interior designer? Contractor? Architect?

New to Stremio Add-ons. How do I know if something is wrong?

I setup an ONN box with Stremio. I added on Torbox+Torrentio and Torbox+Comet. I have been using it on and off for a couple months for programs I could not find elsewhere. Most of the time programs loaded and played as they should. When selecting a stream I noted both Torrentio and Comet filters above the streams. Now Comet is just not there anymore.

What was hoping to find out -

- Is something currently wrong with Comet? Did something change that I need to update?

- I had been watching a series with many available streams for the last couple weeks. Last night no streams showed up at all. Is this a function of Torbox? Comet? Torrentio? My streaming box?

- Some programs attempt to load for a while, then an error message with 'Failed to Load' and then attempts to load the next episode in the series. Why would it show a stream available, but failed to load? Only one TV Series seems to do it.

- I know these are beginner questions. I don't expect anyone here to train me. Is there a place that helps break down these sorts of problems?

Pellets - Looking for classic charcoal flavor

I once read you could use any brand pellet in the NWFG. I was looking for a pellet that would give the flavor you get from using Kingsford charcoal. Kingsford sold a pellet just for that and I bought it. Unfortunately the pellets did not burn completely. I tried them several times, but they only burned ~5%. As a trial i went back to the Ninja pellets and they burned fully.

Does anyone sell a charcoal flavor pellet that works in the NWFG?

Long standing group texts splitting in two?

I recently had a multi-year long group text split off and duplicate the group text with the same people. We could never solve the issue. I thought the issue was a glitch or someone else's problem.

Now today, another long standing group text duplicated itself. Now on my phone, there is the original and the duplicate (which it named itself). As I check with the group participants no one else shows a duplicate. Just me. All the messages are now going to the new duplicate group text.

It appears the issue may be with me and / or Google Messages. Has anyone experienced this before?

Another dumb question as I learn Fusion. The MOVE command

I finally got this simple drawing about done, but I needed to center it about the origin for a subsequent use. I selected the MOVE command, selected both parts and moved them to the origin. For some reason it did not move the construction plane or the line between 2 points (image 2). Can someone tell me what I did wrong?

Can a construction plane be made with a parameter driven angle?

I need extrude a hole through the block where the contruction plane is. Based upon what I have read I can make a construction plane, adjust it to the angle needed, extrude / cut the hole perpendicular to the plane. I would like to make the construction plane angle adjustable through parameters, but Fusion will not accept a parameter.

Is there another way to do it?

A simpleton question on parametric modeling

I am trying for the third time to learn Fusion 360. I decided to start with a simple model that I use a lot in my shop. It is only 3 pieces. I made it following youtube videos. I made 3 separate part files and 1 assembly file you see here.

I want to make this parametric. I could go to each of the design files and establish parameters, but that seems clumsy. I would like to be able to adjust the parameters on the entire assembly.

I know this question is ultra simple to you guys. Could you either give me a tip or point me to a video or something?

A question about organizing products in a pop-up store

I am new to Printify. I created and populated a pop-up store with something like 50 items. I went under Customize Store>Organize, manually organized the products and saved it. The looked at it on my stored website and it all looked as it should.

Now the problem. Each time I add a new product the site organization is scrambled requiring me to manually reorganize everything. Is there trick to this?

Sikaflex for paver joints?

I have had this retaining wall since 2018. The main issue I have is with the paver joints between the stair paver blocks. I fill them with polymeric sand following the instructions, yet the joints fall apart in a year or 2. I am looking for something that will last and keep the water out. I don't want any water undermining the steps.

A couple years ago I went through the exercise of grinding and filling driveway cracks with Sikaflex self leveling polyurethane adhesive. That has held up like a champ. I was considering doing the same for the paver joints and top coat the sikaflex with a matching sand.

Is this a really bad idea?

Can someone describe Amazon Team Store?

I am working on a project for my old high school pals. A series of t-shirts customized to the individual. So, about 35-40 designs. I wanted a place I can upload the designs that provide a site to view what they are ordering and place an order there. Leaving me out of the transaction totally. I wanted to do something on Amazon such that if one of the guys had Amazon Prime they could get free shipping.

After poking around a while I found the Amazon Team Store. It allowed me to upload the designs. It seemed perfect for my needs. I ordered a sample and it was printed with DTF instead of DTG like I wanted . My fault for not checking. I called Amazon Customer Service, but they could not help.

Is there an avenue like that on Amazon?

Do the PTFE tubes somehow make the filament brittle while sitting over time?

I thought I had seen something here or in a youtube video talking about filament sitting in the PTFE tubes causing filament brittleness and breaks. I didn't give it much thought at the time, but today I was faced with exactly that problem. I haven't printed anything in over a month. I went to print something and immediately had a problem. I cleared out broken and brittle filament from the PTFE tube and everything ran fine afterward.

I know I should be drying my filament. I realize that. I am perplexed that the filament in the PTFE tubes become brittle over time, but the filament stored out in the open on my AMS Lite seems fine.

Can anyone explain?

A Question about Pop-Up Stores and Local Sales Tax. What is the latest news?

I am getting conflicting information from Printify. Or I am just misunderstanding it. It sounds like they used to collect and remit local sales taxes, but no longer do. That is a problem for me.

I made a pop-up store and created a shirt design for my club. I am selling them for no profit and will only available for a limited time. I ordered 2 samples and was charged local sales tax which is what I expected. As a trial, a friend ordered on from the new site and was not charged sales tax. The whole idea of using Printify over other options was they would handle the transaction start to finish.

It seems this policy changed some time ago. Can someone explain how it works now?

A question on Gigabyte Control center and GPU cooling fans

Something strange to me. I notice my GPU cooling fans become really loud when i run Battlefield 6. As soon as I close BF6 the get quiet. The fans get really loud the moment I load BF6. So immediate I don't think it is related to GPU temps.

When the game is loaded, but not actually playing the fans were running at 100%. According to the fan curve in the image that should not happen until 70 degrees C. I could not find out how to see what the Gigabyte Control Center thought the temperature was, so I used the Task Manager performance tab. The GPU temperature was 55 degrees C where the fans should be around 40%.

Can someone explain?

Created my first pop-up store, but don't like the look. How can I change?

While setting up the store I was offered 3 or 4 different pre-defined site designs. I chose one and regret it. I see how I can change buttons, logos etc, but I cannot find how to select one of those other predefined sites I was offered during setup.

Can someone point me in the right direction?
