So, in my Google calendar, out-of-the-box each email looks to be assigned 4 calendars: my name, Birthdays, Family, Tasks. These are stock and can't be renamed or removed.

I have my friends and family's birthdays, and you wanna guess which calendar its in? I'll give you a hint, its not "Birthdays", its in my name. Ok, fine, I'll just move them.... nope. I can copy it to Family, that's it. Birthday calendar, at this point I might as well just delete it since it doesn't have any birthdays in it.

Sure... I could remake all of them manually, but there has to be an easier way, right?

Does such an app exist, that can provide visuals on screen (like PowerAmp does natively, or like Winamp plugins) that can be used with any source?

Basically I listen to music streaming from Youtube, and while the phone is charging on my desk I would like to have visuals overlaid the YT app just for something to look at. Is this possible and w/o root?

I need to route wire (small gauge) through the firewall and was wondering if anyone has any tips. I haven't done this in a long time and the last car was something very basic, like a CRV.

This Lexus is based on the same platform as the current Corolla and likely others as well share a similar platform / firewall layout.

Usually there is just a big rubber grommet near the PS pump, but I don't see anything. The car has electric PS anyway. There is a giant connector nearby, but it looks to plug into the firewall and likely there is no room for an additional wire in there

I've never used this brand of soap before, so I don't want to waste or go overboard. I have a small hatchback, so I don't imagine I need to use a lot.

Thanks

Apologies in advance if this is posted somewhere, search sucks and I didn't see anything.

I'm looking for some best-of products for a limited budget. I have a 2021 Lexus UX in black and want to get to a point where I only need to wash it every 2 weeks, with perhaps a quick clean & spray wax in the middle. My work and 2yo take up much of my time, also I park on the street, so no driveway cover or garage unfortunately to keep it cleaner

Also, only looking for external products. Interior I have stuff for already.

Off the top of my head, the stuff I have currently is:

Griots ceramic 3-in-1 spray wax - brand new, never used.

Black Magic tire shine with a big circular piece of cardboard to prevent overspray.

Adams wheel cleaner. Works great but I only apply it to a already wet wheel and don't let it sit to long or dry.

Pressure washer with soap sprayer.

Generic car soap - This is where I feel I need better product. Since its a black car I need to work extra hard to get out the impurities from the paint.

Clay bar- Honestly a little nervous to use this, I had it for my old car and never opened it yet.

Wen 948 Polisher with a lot of pads & polishing attachments.

I used to have a garage full of Ardex products when I detailed for a dealer about 20 years ago (briefly!), but that stuff is long gone, with the exception of the wheel cleaner. I think it was called Buster and it still works amazingly.

Thanks

Its for a Lexus UX but I figured I would get more eyes on this in the Prius subreddit:

2021 UX250h with 55,000ish miles on it. I know that pads can last well over this on Toyota hybrid cars and this Lexus was very well maintained before we purchased it back in November.

I just think its a little early for pads or rotors, but maybe I'm wrong to assume this. If I need to replace either that's no problem, but I hate to have to spend money on something that only happens at very low (2mph) speed, mostly when coming to a stop or backing out of a parking spot.

Could it be possible that the rotors need to be turned and surfaced? I know that's not recommended anymore.

Also, other that the noise the brakes work fine and don't experience any other issues at all.

Is there any chance that we will get folders or a tree structure to organize chats? I never paid any attention to it until lately and I've been going through all my chats and deleting or renaming them. Actually I did so much that I need to cooldown, it would be great to see how much token usage I used just deleting chats! The fact that is uses them at all when DELETING is absurd, but it is what it is.

Right now I just organized by top level (all caps) then subject, then series:

WORK subject #1

I was washing my car and realized there was a gap at the bottom of the windshield, as it attaches to the car. There is no water leaking into the car currently and no windnoise..yet.

I figure I have 2 options, go with insurance and hope they don't raise my rates AND give me an OEM glass. Or, use some silicone or adhesive to fix it myself.

Will upload the pic later as its on another computer, it will better show what I am facing here.

I need to find a sitecode for our security system. I want to order new proximity cards and they will need the site code. The vendor that installed this is no longer in business, thus no support there. I do have some level of admin access to the control software.

If the code isn't shown in the app itself, and its not written down anywhere on the hardware controller, can I extract it somehow from a backup?

Thanks.
