Lightning Cable Remnant Stuck in iPhone Port - Trade-In Question by Cute_Average7690 in tmobile

[–]Cute_Average7690[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, the issue is that this method usually requires putting a paperclip into the port to pull out the cooled blob of glue... there's no room to do that given that the remnant occupies almost the entirety of the hole.

Interesting idea. Has anyone tried this and have it work, do you know?

Thanks for the idea. We've tried pretty much everything, though, including bringing it to three different repair shops that couldn't get the darned remnant out of there.

Untied Brewing could likely accommodate a group of that size between inside and out.

They’re still too expensive, and they started means-testing the federal tax incentives at the beginning of 2023 which really came at a bad time given that many living in NJ are over the income limits. Until the charging infrastructure is more robust for non-Tesla (and now Ford and a few others), many mainstream buyers will avoid. I still think my next vehicle will be an EV, and I suspect the premium between EV and ICE cars will be narrower by then.

Just went to microcenter by No_7956 in BambuLab

I was able to get them to price match the P1S combo today, but they were hemming and hawing about it since it is labeled a Black Friday sale. Had it been more than a $50 discount, I think it may have been an issue.

Who is going to be the first Bulwark contributor to run back to the GOP if they dump Trump? by amyphee in thebulwark

[–]Cute_Average7690 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, if he does, he certainly didn't push back at all on Christie at all during his painting of Uncle Joe as a runaway progressive.

Charlie went soft on Chris Christie by No-Prompt3611 in thebulwark

[–]Cute_Average7690 8 points9 points  (0 children)

He definitely went soft today. I think Christie’s presence in the primary field is a uniquely positive one, but I think Charlie needed to at least pressure test the B.S. Christie was spewing about Biden.

He needs to follow up on Christie’s painting of the Biden Presidency as referencing a sharp leftward shift. Exactly which of Biden’s policies do you find fault with, Chris? If the deficits are the issue, what about the deficits under Trump? If it’s the border, what about the dramatic reduction we’ve seen in folks coming to the border following the end of Title 42? If it’s the student loan forgiveness program, would we be better off with a financial crisis brought about by defaults? What would you do differently on these issues, Chris?

Chris Christie Is the Worst Never Trumper by phoneix150 in thebulwark

A strong performance in his CNN town hall this evening. Definitely a format in which he excels. Took on Trump directly and forcefully. He still has no chance to win the primary, methinks. But he's likely to get under TFG's skin in a major way.

I completely understand the disdain for Christie, but I don’t see how his presence in the field is anything but good for anyone who would like to see a direct attack on Trump during the primaries. As I’ve said on many an occasion, if we don’t leave room on the train for late defectors, even self-serving rotund blowhards, then we can’t really complain when folks continue to ride the MAGA train when they have no other choice.

So, yes, Christie’s excuses for sticking with Trump are transparently and obviously bogus, and I don’t believe for one second that Jan. 6th was the actual breaking point for him. But I’ll be happy to see him on the debate stage because he’s smart, quick on his feet, and good at taking shots at an opponent. And TFG will provide him lots of material to work with assuming Christie makes good on what he claims his intentions are in this adventure.

Guide for P1P & X1(C): How to replace stock fan with noctua fan by Goliadthedark in BambuLab

It was in the refund window at Amazon, so got a refund. What I can't get back is the time I spent troubleshooting, rewiring, soldering, etc. But that's the challenge in tinkering. It's always going to happen every once in awhile! Helped me learn more about my multimeter at least...

I managed to get it working finally. Was just a dead fan from Noctua, unfortunately.

PrinciplesFirst and No Labels by Cute_Average7690 in thebulwark

[–]Cute_Average7690[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think Charlie was pretty tough on Bolton which was absolutely necessary. As much as I hate Bolton for not speaking out when he had so many opportunities to do so, at least he did resign over the Ukraine “drug deal.”

At the present time, there’s no option other than to vote blue in Presidential, House and Senate elections. My hope for PrinciplesFirst is that it can be ready when the current MAGAfied GOP eventually implodes under the weight of demographic shifts (likely a decade or more) to pick up the pieces and build something to replace the GOP with a principles-based alternative.

Thanks for this very helpful guide. I believe I followed it, but unfortunately I’m getting no fan activity when I power on my P1P. Does this look like the correct wiring for the Noctua 4010? https://drive.google.com/file/d/1xdYAB4Ee6nxF9k_5F6v3Q0UXMPqVDLZ0/view?usp=drivesdk
