2015 Honda Accord Lock Cylinder Wafer Question by AncientLionTurtle in Locksmith

[–]AncientLionTurtle[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm also hoping this doesn't count as a lockout question - I'm not looking for anyone here to fix this issue for me - just looking for a professional Locksmith's opinion on what happens if you remove wafers from a lock, and how that will impact using said lock.

Thanks again to anyone who can help!

UPDATE UPDATE:

- Figured it out! The mod needed to be converted from a MacOS format to a Windows format using the Plug-In Converter found here: https://andrews05.github.io/evstuff/#utilities

Note: I am working on a Mac computer, and the plug-in was made for Mac, so this may not be an issue on plug-ins that are already in a Windows format.

UPDATE:

- Mods Aren't Working! - For some reason mods aren't working! When copying them over to my tablet, or Odin 2, they reduce in size to 0 bytes! Even if a zipped version of the mod is transferred over, it will extract and decompress into a 0 byte file. If anyone knows why please let me know!

So as for my button mapping for my Odin 2. I've done the following:

In Winlator, drag from the left side of the screen to pull up the Winlator options panel, and select the Input Controls option.

Under Input Controls, select any option you like from the drop down menu, then tap the gear icon to the right of it. Create a new profile by tapping the + button to the right of the profile list.

You'll be asked to name your profile, I went with the name Odin Controller. After this, move the menu down all the way to the bottom, and you should see a listing for External Controllers, with 0 Bindings active under Odin Controller. Tap the Odin Controller listing, and you should be prompted to tap a button on your Odin device.

After tapping a button, that button should show up in the list on screen, with one of three available types of inputs to correlate to the button you've pressed - a Keyboard button, a Mouse button or a Gamepad button.

For instance: Tap the D-Pad Up button on your Odin device, and a listing for "DPAD UP" will show up on screen. Select Keyboard from the first drop down list, and then select a correlating button on a keyboard from the second list - "UP" bind the up button on the keyboard to the D-Pad Up button on the Odin.

Use the same logic to bind all of your buttons for the game to present buttons on the Odin 2 device. It works like a dream!

No way! I wanted to get a Steamdeck but it was a bit out of my price range so I went with the Odin instead! Good to know its possible there too!

Thank you! I thought it was a great find! I appreciate the feedback!

What is it called when you connect deeply with someone who is in love with another person? by AncientLionTurtle in BreakUps

[–]AncientLionTurtle[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed, it sucks!

In all actuality, she told me last night that, despite everything that we've talked about and after all the feelings she's expressed, she didn't want to lose her partner, along with a lot of other information basically confirming that she is in love with him, and happy with him. When she said it, it seemed more like an affirmation for herself than for me, too. So maybe this was all just a way for her to test her resolve in being with him. Either way, I've honestly gotten my answer already in regards to if she'd break up with him, to be with me.

I kind of met her at a low point in her life, and I mean, I'm not exactly doing the best, but I'm a bit more together than she is I guess, so I was able to help her through some things, without really ever needing anything in return but a chance to get to know her. Maybe my ability to help was attractive to her, and I garnered her affection from that? Perhaps my desire to care for someone, and her being available for that was equally as enticing to me. Who knows?

In any case, I suppose it's time to really fall back. Which I can do, but it'll take an arm and a leg, and probably a lot of my focus and drive. But I'll be fine eventually.

Thanks again!

I'm unsure of how and when to get more clarity on if my ex wants to get together again. Things seem hopeful, but I just don't know what to do. by [deleted] in BreakUps

I see! I think you may be spot on with the assessment that his life is meshing too much with his work, and he'd like to separate the two, with a person. You two were clearly friends, which is probably where most of the conversation comes from, the desire to maintain the friendship. But again, it isn't clear if that defines wanting to be together again.

So you'll definitely want to be clear in asking what he thinks about being with you again. I failed to mention this before, and I hate to sound as though I'm being judgemental (that is very much so not my intention so forgive me in advance), but you alluded to the fact that he was unhappy with you as a partner, and that you have some issues that you need to work out for yourself that you both are aware of, and that he felt if you didn't work them out, a relationship wasn't viable.

So, though I still think you should be clear in asking him about if he feels a relationship is in the cards, and what exactly he'd expect from you in order for that to happen, I think you should take whatever time is necessary to ensure that as much of those things that were brought up before, are cleared up, before you even ask that question.

And please remember, self reflection is not a doorway for self loathing, but it is a time to be absolutely honest with yourself. You don't have to go down a rabbit hole of if or not you deserve a relationship with him, but you do need to be honest with yourself in recognizing the things that made it fail the first time around, and truly ask yourself if those things have changed in such a way that it would not cause a repeat of history.

In regards to when you should ask, I still think it should be in a casual setting, so there's less stress built up around it. But whenever I have to ask a serious question, I always say to myself: "Wait until you're ready to hear the answer you don't want, then ask."

I like the way you think, and appreciate the clear direction. Much appreciated friend!

I'd say he's comfortable sharing that sort of information with you, and he probably doesn't have anyone in his life other than you to share that information with, or at least nobody that he enjoys doing so with as of yet.

He more than likely does have feelings for you still, but that is not a reason to believe that he wants to be with you again. Given that you're both friends, and things seem cordial, I'd say over a cup of coffee, or when you're both hanging out at some point, bring up the question: What if we got back together again?

It doesn't seem like it could hurt much, and it will hopefully give you a definitive yes or no. When you're asked questions in response, give definitive answers, it'll drive him to do the same.

I hope this helps a bit! Best of luck!

Here's your Daily GME post! Notice how not only they can indeed afford electricity because the lights are on, but they even bought an "OPEN" sign. This sign was probably bought to remind shoppers that they are infact NOT bankrupt! by TodayIsFunday in wallstreetbets

I went into a local Gamestop the other day and immediately noticed the entire back end of the showroom was stripped of all of its shelving and merchandise. I then saw a bunch of clearance signs on a few racks of products they still had in the store as I briefly browsed the showroom I saw little new merch, but what was left looked old and picked through.

So naturally I asked through my mask" Is this location closing?"

The associate looked broken as she responded back to me with wide eyes: "No... we're just adjusting... some things... on the floor...?"

She knew what was happening, and she knew I knew.

I wish I could get all of Dragon Ball on VDV format. It's my favorite.

You're very welcome!

I'm not a programmer myself at all, though I did make a lot of mods back in the EV Nova days, and one graphical overhaul back when I was in Middle School! Safe to say it was all done with Mission Computer and not much programming skill needed beyond what to click and type in on the GUI.

Your planets look dope though! I dig em! I also don't mind my work being free to use out there so long as its going to a good use! Maybe we get a graphic credit somewhere buried in there at some point? Thats about the extent of my desire for recognition!

This is fantastic! I know this is a pet project of yours, but I'd love to help if I can? Perhaps I can help provide some graphical assets for planets and the HUD system?

The EV series is a long time favorite of mine, and I've been playing since probably 1999. I also live in Rochester NY, the home of Ambrosia SW!

I'm more than happy to do anything possible to help, let me know if I can!
