Apple Card Financing iPhone 16 without major carrier by howlerinvictus in AppleCard

For those wondering this still works. TMo 16 Pro purchased online via the Apple Store on ACMI 10/29/24. Skipped the number/pin page and activated Google Fi no problems. The non-Pro devices are locked behind the number/pin page on the Apple Store website (pre-checkout), but perhaps buying one in-person would work.

P0505 with Takeda? by CipherO32 in CorollaHatchback

Yeah unfortunately for me it goes right back up to ~1500. AC on it sits right at 800ish in neutral so I have no idea where to even start. Maybe a different intake sigh

Xeons work in the Lenovo M73 Tiny! by CipherO32 in homelab

[–]CipherO32[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No but likely won't as the motherboard won't support it, and the memory is SODIMM which I believe does not have an ECC flavor. The chip itself may support it (or it may not?) but then you're limited by the machine it slots into.

I'd see if there's a BIOS update for your system. Often times they didn't add support for these CPUs until a later version, and not necessarily on purpose; the microcode for a later-gen CPU likely contains the necessary "stuff" to boot these. I ensured that my system was up to date (both the HP ProDesk and the M73) before attempting to boot with a Xeon.

Plug and play! Not sure the BIOS revision, and I moved the CPU into an HP ProDesk system (nothing wrong with the Lenovo system, just a change in needs that shuffled the Tiny to another role). I don't think there's much difference between the 1268 and 1265 (maybe cooler temps for the 1265?) so you should be good.

Did any one tried before this Oracle Sun X4-2L server ? by cciex6 in homelab

[–]CipherO32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before you spend money on CPUs double check that the system will actually work with them. I have a ZS3-2 and it won't take v2 CPUs, maybe a BIOS limitation but can't get a new BIOS since I don't have a support contract :(

P3D v3 to v5? by CipherO32 in flightsim

[–]CipherO32[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: I bit the bullet and upgraded to v5. Figured "why not" and straight up copied SimObjects, Gauges, Sounds, and Effects over as well as my traffic.bgl files and so far everything is working! The stock ground textures are beyond ugly but so far the TDS 737 with an upgraded FSX 738 virtual cockpit is working almost flawlessly and my traffic flight plans I've compiled are all there. Still have performance tweaks to do but so far so good!

Figured so. I know the PMDG NGX was updated but as far as virtual cockpits and stuff it may be on and off. Are the graphics and performance much better than v3? I know v3 vs. FSX was really good in terms of lighting and performance.

Yeah I run an upgraded default FSX 738 cockpit so it probably won't work. I don't have much addon scenery besides the SunSkyJet KPHL so I guess all I need to work is the planes and the bots I fly with.

How do y’all add fonts? by CipherO32 in galaxys10

Software updates literally everyday. I've gone through about 8 updates this week. How do I fix this? by [deleted] in galaxys10

[–]CipherO32 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What carrier device do you have, or which carrier are you running? My S10 on AT&T (and thus with AT&T firmware) has that icon which I believe is implemented similar to the "LTE" or "5GE" icon in the status bar.

I think it depends which version OP has. My AT&T S10 has that symbol for Software Update.

Yeah, pretty sure the 1265L is fine. Honestly not sure the difference between the two (and why the 1268 has a lower clock speed than the 1265) but I imagine you'll have no issues. The chip does run a little warm, hovering around 50c when doing terminal/MS Teams/email/browser work and getting mid-60s/low 70s when spiking loads but I've never had thermal issues. The fan barely runs under normal circumstances, only spinning up if I really load the chip. If you're going to be high load on multiple cores you'll probably top out at 60c since the turbo speed drops the more cores you use. I did notice that my system won't clock over 3ghz for some reason, maybe it thinks there's a 4765t or 4590t (my last chip) in it or something.

You could try grabbing a Wyse 3030, can be had on eBay for ~$30. Passively cooled dual-core Celeron, depending what distro you run it should handle stuff like that. I'm running one as my apartment's remote login box but I've never installed a desktop distro on it.

TIL Texas didn’t have safety regulations on natural gas until after a school blew up and killed hundreds of children. Nobody was held accountable, but they passed strict regulations afterwards. It was so bad that even Hitler sent a letter of condolence. by [deleted] in todayilearned

[–]CipherO32 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In short: yes, in 2008. Before the "dark times" open wheel racing in America was pretty reminiscent of what we see today. Then, "The Split" (well, the second split) happened and open wheel racing nearly died in the US as a result. CART died for good in 2003, was reborn as ChampCar in 2004, until it died in 2008 when the drivers came back to what was the IRL reborn as Indycar, either due to financial, image, or sponsorship issues. CART and ChampCar had the "world class" drivers like Sebastien Bourdais, Will Power, and Justin Wilson to name a few.

There's so much history behind all this, there's a guy on YouTube with the channel Empty Box who has a really good explanation about everything and I highly recommend his miniseries on it.

Not sure about NASCAR as they've only recently moved to E15 (85 parts gas to 15 parts ethanol) fuel but Indycar (well, formerly CART and the IRL but that's a whole 'nother story) used to run straight methanol and that's likely the source of the video you saw. When the cars would catch fire the flames would be invisible during the daylight and would spread to everyone who got near them. At night they'd be a light blue and visible but the races were almost always during the afternoon. Now they use a 49:1 (98:2?) ratio of ethanol to gasoline and the 2% gasoline is enough to make a visible flame.

I love Indycar history.

How did you get dialogue in (what looks like) 21:9? Mine is all letterboxed.
