I looked up AudioQuest Chocolate HDMI cables on Amazon and oh boy are they expensive. They might be worth it but I can¡¯t justify it. BTW there were no AudioQuest Chocolate cable but there were Cinnamon, Vodka, Forest, Pearl, Thunderbird, Blueberry, and Carbon HDMI cables. 2-3 foot cables were anywhere from $29.95 to $199.95 depending on the flavor you bought. I realize you get what you pay for but in the 5-10 years that HDMI cables have been the standard I have bought $10 cables and have only had to replace 1 so I will stay with what I have. Thanks.

I assume it¡¯s okay but I haven¡¯t done so. Apple is moving to make its OS similar to its iOS and I positively hate what they have done with the iOS. For example, they add my reminders to my calendar which annoys me greatly and there is no way to turn that off. As long as apple continues to up date iOS 14 I will not update to iOS 15.

Harry, Don¡¯t believe a word of it. There¡¯s actually a little guy with a pressure gauge who lives in the rim of your tire (well, actually four of them since you have four tires). They monitor the tire pressure every 10 seconds ¡ª it¡¯s a thankless job ¡ª and report any anomalies to the slightly bigger guy who lives behind your dashboard, who activates a warning message if he thinks it¡¯s warranted. The reason the tires are so expensive to replace is that they have to pay a rather exorbitant severance fee to each little guy that gets displaced when the new tire is installed. To make matters worse they have a DEI policy that forces them to hire some guagers that aren¡¯t always the most competent. But that¡¯s another story, and I¡¯m pretty sure President Trusk is going to take care of it soon. On Feb 6, 2025, at 1:45?PM, Harry Jacobson-Beyer via groups.io <hejb44@...> wrote: |

A sensor just went out on my Prius and needed to be replaced. The sensors have batteries. The battery in one of the four sensors was dead, and the batteries can¡¯t be replaced, so the whole sensor had to go. I found this Web page informative. <> It cost me $93 for the sensor and programming at Big-O Tires. I replaced a tire at the same time. They certainly don¡¯t communicate with the car using Bluetooth because Bluetooth uses frequencies around 2.4 GHz and the sensors are down around 400 MHz. L^2 |
Re: How does my car know¡
Here is the Car Talk article about the pressure sensors, along with advice about where to get them replaced. (Hint: it's not the dealer.)

Re: How does my car know¡
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýHere you go Harry!John Tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS) that use valve stems to read tire pressure work by?incorporating wireless sensors within the valve stem itself?(or very close to it, attached to the base).?These sensors measure the tire pressure and transmit this information wirelessly to a receiver in your vehicle, which then alerts you through a dashboard light if the pressure is low.?

Does it send it wirelessly? Or is the sensor connected by wires and permanently installed in the rim? On Feb 6, 2025, at 11:53?AM, John Robinson via groups.io <profilecovenant@...> wrote: |
Re: How does my car know¡
Harry, there is a valve stem with a sensor that reads the pressure & sends it to your car computer.

Re: Managing email folders
At least the advantage of old moldering email over paper mail is that it doesn't take up any real space and it is so nicely dated that ditching everything over x years old is simple and needs no shredder.

Great philosophy Harry! No joy¡no save. I found some today that not only didn¡¯t bring joy, they didn¡¯t bring anything! Inactive / dead links that I was saving. What a waste.
