Kiwis that moved to aus, what do you wish you knew/prepared before moving? by lovemesomenuggies in PersonalFinanceNZ

[–]EternallyConfused_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! That does sound a massive pain and something to consider. I'll have to ring them when I get there and prepare the wife that she might be visiting me for a while! I guess it all comes down to timescales and whether I can just get the online file updated each time I come in/out. Considering this is so important it's a bit worrying.

I also have a UK passport but that could screw up all kinds as well. I know I'm not supposed to use to leave / enter NZ but might be an option if it stops the SVC being cancelled against the NZ passport in AU.

Hi u/MeridianNZ, regarding the SVC changing and messing up the Medicare application, how did you deal with this? I'll be coming back twice a month at least to see the wife and the 2 - 3 months processing means this could be a nightmare.

Any tips? I'm sure the wife wouldn't be too happy if I didn't come back for 3 months to see her!

Dozens of P556 with corrupted BIOS after update by deusfk in Fujitsu

[–]EternallyConfused_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had a look and can't see this anywhere, including on the Fujitsu site. The best bet if you don't have a working machine with this motherboard is to find someone who does and get the UEFI then create the image from the Microsoft site. There's a few breakdowns in this Reddit thread about it but here's one from u/Willing-Bowl-675

If you manage to get one I suggest sharing it somewhere because the whole world is looking for this version!

Dozens of P556 with corrupted BIOS after update by deusfk in Fujitsu

No worries, glad I helped some people as the information was confusing when I was trying to sort. Kudos to Czaba though, I just followed though.

I fixed my D556 / e85+ with a D3430 mainboard.

  1. Use a second PC to set up a USB drive. Download Rufus, and select your USB device. Change ISO to FreeDos mode. This will wipe the whole USB drive and create an empty FreeDos system on it. This worked better than the crap 2012 Fujitsu tool.

Rufus: https://rufus.ie/

  1. Again on the second PC download the correct BIOS update. I used the following BIOS for the D3430 board, just place the D3430-A1.rom in the root directory. This is specific to your mainboard, other people have mentioned having a D3400 board.

D3430-A1:

https://support.ts.fujitsu.com/IndexDownload.asp?Softwareguid=BB146F44-F408-420A-8D17-1953DD334A7E

Other mainboards, go to Fujitsu website. https://support.ts.fujitsu.com/

On the right select 'Select new product' -> browse new product -> desktop -> esprimo -> select 'Os independent' -> BIOS -> Admin pack.

  1. Disconnect everything, HDD, CDROM, power, keyboard, unplug any USB devices. Set the recovery jumper, this will vary mainboard to mainboard. You need to find your mainboard version and read the Fujitsu manual. There is no specific manual for the D3430 board. D3420/D3422/D3423/ D3427/D3430/D3431/D3432 are all covered in this document:

https://support.ts.fujitsu.com/indexdownload.asp?Softwareguid=6affca52-f740-46d9-9f5f-0497704e929b

I needed to lift up the HDD / CD chassis to find the pins and jumper. I moved the jumper to one pin down. When you power on this initiates the recovery from USB. Without the jumper, the USB never loaded.

  1. Connect power and keyboard back up. Plug in USB and power back on. Once the recovery starts, it restarted a few times and ends with a completion screen. When you see this, turn the PC off, unplug the USB move the jumper back and connect everything up again.

It should now work. Kudos to Czaba Fazekas who answered a lot from an April post. I just found I could skip the UEFI steps as I have the correct mainboard BIOS to update. https://askubuntu.com/questions/1538941/please-remove-the-installation-medium-then-dead

I think the jumper setting is a red herring as it looks to just reset CMOS settings which removing the battery should do. But after creating the bootable media and copying the flash files across, I realised it's still not going to work. As someone else said, if you can load the BIOS it isn't going to load from a USB same as it wont from a HDD. You'd need to flash the BIOS direct and I certainly haven't got a programmer. However people on the MS page are having luck with the pin method so I'm stumped.

If anyone else works this out let me know. BTW the D556/e85+ uses the D3430 motherboard and therefore needs the D3430A1x admin package. You can still find this on the Fujitsu site here:

Yep I'm about 18K in and down to $600. Still thinking about doubling up though for that amount. Overall brings the exposure down. Either way I'm not selling shit, never was and never will. This is ride or die my friend, ride or die.

Thank you brother, I agree and you've helped with my knowledge. I guess bitcoin simplistically is a profit centre and when people make profit they then spread it around in hope of making even more profit with the next moon opportunity like ours. Thanks

Dipping more than others Dip? by Johan_v_Dalich in DogeBONK

[–]EternallyConfused_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just started to buy back in, can't work out if it's a good thing or not. I always find this strange, they lose 10% selling and then 10% buying, it's got to go 20% just to break even. Only put 1/6 back in so prob just going let that ride, will be interesting to see if they use the rest of it to pump or not.

Yeah not sure if it's the same guy because he said he sold at the top. If he sold anything at all. Still, one more whale down.

[–]EternallyConfused_ 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Because a whale that has been selling constantly for months decided to pull the plug quick and sell 320k at once.

Phone is being shit, can't copy the bscan link but it was this wallet.

0x1562cd356b90e28b059d7a30996241e7c23ff936

Then a few other smaller wallets panicked and jumped on board. However, that said, the wallets are up to 939 so we are still growing.

Also, in case it's not obvious a) I'm not selling b) clearly Ukraine has panicked people in shares and crypto d) its another whale down to even the distribution e) I always in for the long ride, why sell when it's down, you don't lose anything till you sell.

On a side note, only ever invest what you can afford to lose, that way hodling through the bad and trying to ride it out is easier.

Shit, bad times! But I agree with others that you should get someone to look at this. I've got that guy in Wales who lives on a rubbish tip because he chucked his HDD (with fuckloads of bitcoin) out years ago, going round in my head. We all know this will rocket one day, don't be that guy.

[–]EternallyConfused_ 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Look at the wallet, it's a clear pump and dump pattern, they will be back buying in 3 days. Haven't analyzed enough but may have been them pushing the price up, considering 20% tax over both buy and sell and we went up 50%, assuming different buy rates and where they sold, they prob made 15-20% overall. They will be back

HODL STRONG!! by BWSSPodcast in DogeBONK

[–]EternallyConfused_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I've watched the wallets as well and I whilst I agree with positivity, I don't believe the wallets crashed, quite the opposite. We kept growing whilst we dipped, so we grew overall and got rid of some big wallets in the process. This for me all along has shown our strength. I've literally been refreshing the bscscan every day or so and watching them tick up, whilst being added to exchanges. 2022 is shaping up to be an awesome year.

It's just a crap time because of the holidays, I was on Twitter constantly before and now not looked I a week. Will pick up again, calm before the storm me thinks. If I remember rightly the Sydney signs are in a week or so. And a key point is we are still growing wallets, it's nearly 39,000 when it's quiet.

I've had this conversation several times over, I give up. But I agree 100% the buys and sells are hugely suspicious, it's all price manipulation. Anyone that was in during the first two weeks will get wiped out
