DSfile works on iPhone but not iPad
I have a iPhone 16 pro running iOS 27 and an iPad Air running iPadOS 27. On my DS218+, I have the firewall set to allow all ports on my trusted VLAN. Both my phone and tablet are connected to the trusted VLAN. I can connect to DSfile just fine with my phone, but I can't get the iPad to connect. I'm using the same user/pw and connection settings, and all I get on the tablet is "unable to connect to server."
I've ensured local network access is toggled on in the iPad settings for DS file and pretty sure there aren't other security options I may have missed.
Has anyone run into this? Any suggestions are appreciated!
Delaminating windshield question
I'm taking my '23 4BW in for a delaminating windshield. I understand it's been an issue with the CT4s. Does anyone know if they've corrected the underlying issue with the replacements? I'd hate to get my windshield replaced with another one that's going to do the same thing.
Missing DirectX runtime?
Edit: To help anyone in the future. It wasn't DirectX, even though that's what the error says. I uninstalled/reinstalled the game, and when I went to run it, it asked to install Unreal Engine 4 runtime prerequisites.
I've played TOW 7 times now on the same PC. I'm on my 8th playthrough and just applied the June 24th, 2026 patch to the Spacer's Choice edition. Now, I'm getting this when trying to launch the game from Steam.
I've updated my GPU drivers and (re)installed DirectX.
Any ideas why?
Missing Kesimpta dose by 1 day
Is it OK to miss a Kesimpta dose by 1 day? My next dose is scheduled for Monday, 8/10. I'm traveling and my specialty pharmacy can't deliver it until Tuesday, 8/11. I could have it delivered earlier to me while on vacation, but I'm worried about having to keep it cold on a 3-day return trip home.
Driving a Manual Transmission Exercises Your Brain, Japanese Study Finds
roadandtrack.comIs the r4w slower to connect to GPS than the r3?
I upgraded recently from an r3 to an r4w. I’m using the same mirror mount in the same position that I ran the r3 in for a few years. My r3 would pick up GPS within a minute of pulling out of the garage. The r4 sometimes takes 10 minutes, and sometimes it doesn’t pick it up at all.
My profile rating doesn't match my ratings
I don't understand my marketplace rating. My marketplace profile says I have 4.5 stars from 15 ratings. My 10 ratings as a seller are all 5 star. When I view the ratings as a buyer, I don't have any.
What gives?
I have decorative rock that helps with drainage on the side of a section of my driveway. My mailman drove up my driveway to deliver a package today and went off the side into the rock on his way down. Bear in mind my driveway is plenty wide not to go off if you're paying attention. I have Ring cameras, so I have footage of the event, and him just driving off like nothing happened. And today is a super sunny, clear day, so no weather excuse.
Yes, I fixed it, but really? Is there any benefit to calling my local postmaster? It seems like carelessness on my carrier's part, not to mention damaging customers' lawns.
Found this at NEAR-fest today in NH. I thought it was a pretty cool find.
I've heard from a few guys that went from a 4BW 6M to a C7 7M. Now I'm hoping to hear from people that went from a C7 to a 4BW. Specifically, I'm considering a C7 Stingray Z51 2LT.
For the record, I've loved my BW for the 3-years I've owned it. There's nothing "wrong" with it; it's a fantastic car (although I have no need for back seats). But something is drawing me to a C7. Maybe it's the NA V8, no compromise sports car. Maybe I'm just getting to that age, though I will NEVER wear jorts and New Balance.
I test drove one and loved the seating position, the amenities (or lack thereof), and the car in general. Don't get me wrong, my caddy is very comfortable. But I loved the driver focused interior with very minimal technology. The particular one I drove wasn't cosmetically cared for and smelled like smoke, so it was an easy pass, but I really liked the car in general. I'll be using the car as a seasonal, sunny day car with about 2 autocross events/month over the summer.
My impression is that, while the BW can go from docile to rowdy, the Z51 doesn't have a docile mode. That's entirely fine as this isn't my daily. I not only want a different driving experience, I'm expecting it.
But this is a hard decision because I love my BW but am drawn to the driving experience of the vette, which is why I'm looking to hear from guys that have owned or driven both.
