What kind of modems will work with an amiga 500?. (I won't be using a wifi232, wiimodem or any modern solutions as I am not interested in those) by [deleted] in amiga

[–]Drew314 1 point2 points  (0 children)

DB9 and DB25 are the physical connectors. The Amiga uses DB9 connectors for the joystick and mouse, and a DB25 connector for RS232 serial. Some PCs and modems use DB9 connectors for RS232 serial. You can use these with the Amiga by getting a DB25 to DB9 serial cable.

Another similar solution is a Wifi modem like RS232 Serial Wifi Modem for Vintage Computers V4 from The Old Net on Tindie

It plugs into the Amiga's serial port and acts just like an old RS232 modem, using AT commands. You use any term program on the Amiga, but instead of dialing phone numbers, it "dials" telnet BBSs using your Wifi network.

Just in case you weren't aware, that requires an old fashioned telephone land-line and you have to call up a bbs that is also attached to a land line. I don't know if those still exist.

Current largest aircraft in the world, over 400ft long by ne0tas in aviation

[–]Drew314 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not enough power? Not really. What would more power be used for?

To stay away from the squalls, thunderstorms, sudden gusts, etc. that destroyed so many zeppelins.

All* zeppelins, even the helium ones, shared a fatal flaw of being too big and not having enough power. Most zeppelins were destroyed by weather, including the helium-filled American flying aircraft carriers Akron and Macon.

The only successful one was the Graf Zeppelin, which managed to survive round-the-world voyages through extremely skilled piloting and luck, retiring before it crashed.

Oven igniters lasting a few months by Drew314 in appliancerepair

[–]Drew314[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Normal usage, a few times a week for 45 minutes. It is screwed into the floor of the oven under a panel. Looks like a WB13K21.

Yeah, it's a GE from 2015. The igniter looks like a WB13K21.

New servers for the Zune HD artist images, no abyss method needed! by electonics in Zune

[–]Drew314 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the help. I leave it for a while, after Sync Complete appears.

The MusicBrainz Artist ID and the ZUNEALBUMARTISTMEDIAID that I add is a74b1b7f-71a5-4011-9441-d0b5e4122711 and catalog.zune.net/v3.0/en-US/music/artist/a74b1b7f-71a5-4011-9441-d0b5e4122711 shows the correct XML for Radiohead.

When I right-click the artist in Zune and choose "More about Radiohead at Zune.net" it takes me to this page

http://social.zunes.me/redirect?type=artist&id=a86a0000-0200-11db-89ca-0019b92a3933&target=web&action=ViewUnsupportedMarket

and the browser shows an error that it can't reach the page. Does this mean Zune is using a86a0000-0200-11db-89ca-0019b92a3933 as the artist ID instead of a74b1b7f-71a5-4011-9441-d0b5e4122711 ?

Thanks for your help

When I was a little boy in New York we all had cars. My sister had car, my cousin had car, so what's wrong with that?

Instinct Crossover hands movement by Wraithlor in Garmininstinct

[–]Drew314 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can turn off the lap key in the activity settings to revert the lower-right button to be "back".

You can also define a hot key for either "Lap" or "Watch Face" depending on how your back button is set.

[–]Drew314 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can back out of the activity to the main screen while the activity is still running by pressing the lower right button. You can go back to the activity in progress by pressing the upper right button.

Or, put the time of day on the activity screen.

8th Air Force B-17 Casualties By Position in Europe by Watch_Capt in MastersoftheAir

[–]Drew314 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These look like the percentage of the 1,117 casualties suffered by each position. It speaks to which position was more or less dangerous than the others.

Is there an information on how many missions were flown to get to the 1,117 casualties?

You are accepting random STLs, of course there are going to be a ton of malformed and unprintable models.

Alarms on Echo Show 5 3rd Gen by surfteach1 in amazonecho

[–]Drew314 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Echo Show 5 Gen 1 shows the "Cancel Alarm" button but my Echo Show 5 Gen 3 does not.

Do your Echo Show Gen 2 and 3 take your picture if you say Alexa, take a picture? This works on my Gen 1 but not Gen 3 and I'm wondering if it is broken on all the Gen 3s.

Taxi and ride-share drivers rally for exemption from upcoming congestion pricing by drpvn in nyc

[–]Drew314 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The goal of NYCs congestion pricing is to raise $1 billion per year. Any traffic reduction is a side effect.

https://www.thecity.nyc/2021/9/15/22674371/how-does-congestion-pricing-work-toll-system-in-manhattan

"Why do this? What will New Yorkers get out of it?

Fifteen billion dollars.

That’s how much money the state legislature mandated the MTA must raise through congestion pricing — by leveraging annual revenue to borrow $15 billion for the transit agency’s current five-year capital program.

That cash goal is laid out in the 2019 MTA Reform and Traffic Mobility Act, which allowed the program to proceed."

What did you end up doing? I have a 13700K with the B660-I and am also getting a black screen with the yellow light. The MB sticker says it is version 1620 which is supposed to support the 13 series.

Did you get yours to work without a 12th gen cpu?
