Wyze Wi-Fi Mesh Router (not the Pro model), firmware v1.0.1.166

The 2.4ghz signal suddenly stopped working altogether on my Wyze Mesh Router. I've tried resetting it, updating the SSID and password, and it simply refuses to broadcast over anything but 5ghz. I also tried the feature that disables 5ghz temporally, that did not work to bring back the 2.4ghz signal either.

I first noticed the problem because all my Wyze and other smart devices (cameras, switches, light bulbs, etc) spontaneously disconnected yesterday. The few that support 5ghz are still connected and working.

I'm using a WiFi analyzer app to verify that indeed only the 5ghz signal is broadcasting. I can see other 2.4 signals nearby, but only the 5ghz signal from my Wyze router.

Help? Ideas?

An apartment complex a friend of mine lives in just changed ownership to Olympic Management, and they had a tow notice sticker applied to their car. The only problem listed is "no back-in parking", and their car is backed in.

In any normal situation... sure. Whatever. Enforce your silly rules. They'll turn their car around and stop backing in. But in this particular situation this is absolutely awful timing because the vehicle is totaled, they physically cannot turn it around, and they are waiting for the bank they have their car loan through to tow it so they can sell it for parts (or whatever it is the banks do in these situations). They're towing within the next week. BUT the tow notice from Olympic is for TOMORROW.

They called Olympic Management and they were super unreasonable and would not give them an extension, or work with them in any way. They told them to pay to tow it themselves. Paying out of pocket for towing will of course be expensive, they're already having financial troubles as it is, and if it's towed by Olympic's towing company I'm sure it'll be even more expensive to get it out of their lot so the bank can take it.

This sucks. Their car is in the wrong orientation. That's the only problem. And Olympic is trying to make it a huge expensive headache.

Any ideas? Anyone have a contact that they can reach out to at Olympic that will be reasonable and work with them to give a short extension?

Also, related, ANOTHER friend had a similar thing happen at another apartment complex. Olympic took over and wants to inspect their apartment and "take photos" of the inside. They also sent an email scolding them for their patio not following rules, but refuse to explain what rules are being broken. So I guess my question here is: is it within the rights of the landlord to come in with very short notice and take pictures of the apartment?

It feels like both of these are examples of that wonderful situation where a new landlord comes in, "cleans house" and all but forces everyone to leave by making it super unreasonable and difficult to live there and being overly litigious, then finds new renters they can significantly jack up the price for. Help?

I have an "i25 Rii mini" remote/air-mouse/keyboard with usb dongle. It works mostly great in my 2019 Shield TV Pro. But when I'm entering text into an input field, the on-screen keyboard both (1) does not function with my remote's directional buttons and "ok" button nor air-mouse "click" input, and (2) does not go away when I'm using the physical keyboard on the back of the remote.

How can I solve one or both of these problems?

My partner is recovering from surgery and has been cooped up inside all week. I'd like to take her on a drive, and get her at least out of the house for a bit today. What are some of the nicest views one can get roadside in the area? She shouldn't be doing much walking right now, so no trails or walks from a parking lot. And not TOO far from home, let's say maximum 30 minute drive from the Tumwater area by the airport.

Thx :)

Best place to purchase a pre-owned Android tablet, locally? Specifically Samsung, and from the last few years.

This is for game development, and I need Samsung specifically for testing because they do weird annoying things with Android that can be problematic for developers.

Edit: ended up checking Best Buy (bleh) and they had an A9+ for half-price.

Is there a way to view apps and watchfaces by relase date? Or last updated date? Either within the Pebble app or on the website, or an RSS feed maybe...?

Is there a way to do the following:

1. Have a primary plugin displayed on the device, updating periodically.
2. Have a secondary plugin update its image in the background periodically, never showing on-screen.
3. ...unless you swipe the touch bar left/right, then show the secondary plugin's cached image*. Swipe again to return to primary.
4. Revert to the primary plugin after 5 minutes, if it was not swiped back from secondary.

*I do not want it to have to load a new image from the server like it does when you Tap the touch bar.

TLDR; I'm building a little DIY Steam Machine and I need help getting it to play nice with the eGPU.

The idea of this build is to make it entirely (or as close as possible) out of pieces and parts from previous builds, components that I've been donated over the years, or have traded other components for. The only item I've purchased new is the eGPU dock, everything else has been re-purposed - hooray reduce, renew, recycle! :)

Parts list:

• Mac Mini 2018 (Intel)
• CPU: Intel Core i5-8500B
• Integrated GPU: Intel UHD 630 GT2
• RAM: 8GB DDR4 2667 MHz
• Storage: 500GB NVMe
• Ext Storage: (2x) 256GB SSD
• eGPU Dock: GODLIY https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0G48SQ8DR
• Discrete GPU: Radeon RX 5700 XT MECH OC BV
• PSU: EVGA 550 G3 550w

SO! I've got it set up to where I'm happy with it, EXCEPT for the GPU. Bazzite is great, it boots straight into Steam Big Picture Mode, it runs low-medium quality 2D games. Cool! Now I want to get it set up with the GPU, and MAN it's giving me issues...

I feel like I've tried everything, all of the tutorials and guides a web search can give me, and I can't get a picture from the GPU no matter what I do. I'm not afraid of the terminal, but not advanced enough with Linux to understand how to debug much further than what the guides specify.

Anyone have a similar setup? Any advice??

Thanks so much <3
