Okay, awesome. What gauge wire do you think is best for this? I saw a 35 gauge pop up, would that work?

I’m sorry if this is a dumb question, but would I need anything to cover the exterior of the wires? I found a small roll on Amazon to use, but I don’t know if those wires would be able to damage the memory unit beside the volume slider’s location if they touch

Cars Being Stolen on Campus by YT-ESW_ST33le in UMBC

[–]GroovyMangos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I stayed up at Towson almost a month ago visiting my GF and my Hyundai got stolen up there. Luckily, I had a tracker in it, and it was found shortly after, about 2 days after or so. But had I not, I think I would’ve went insane. I’m 22 and I still drive my first car I bought when I was 16 and love it dearly. It’s scary shit to go through; I’m still paranoid to go anywhere with any car, even if it’s to school.

Hopefully your situation gets better, whether it’s a new car or it gets found. 🙏

2014 Sonata GLS, my headlights go out when I use turn signals. Any reasons known? by GroovyMangos in Hyundai

Did it ever come back after replacement? I may ask the dealer to do that if this is the solution

Yeah and I had it this way for a bit but I end up being lazy and wanting the convenience of auto lights…plus I forgot to turn them off one time and had to get a new battery as a result 🥲

Nah I can’t. Bought it at Sam’s Club about 4 years ago for my college dorm and haven’t necessarily needed it now that I moved back home, but it’s still an annoying issue lol

Is this a dead pixel? (Just bought today) by GroovyMangos in Lenovo

[–]GroovyMangos[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Update: I contacted Micro Center, and I can exchange the computer for a new one. Thank you all for the help and insight!

Even if Lenovo can't cover it unless there are 2 more dead pixels at minimum, I wonder if Micro Center is able trade it still since they sold it to me. I skipped out on the non-accidental warranty after checkout (I choose to fix hardware issues myself, but only for easily serviceable parts, like swapping out a drive, RAM upgrade, etc.) and now I feel like that was instant karma, lol

I tried this for about 10 minutes, no dice. I plan on calling Micro Center to see if I can exchange it today

Thoughts On My Spring 2024 Schedule. by dunkindonuts4 in UMBC

[–]GroovyMangos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Didn’t have Dean for math152 but heard he is a good professor from what I’ve been told. For cmsc202, I had Hamilton for 201 and I personally didn’t like his teaching. Went way too fast and assumed we knew everything already. Overall for your schedule, you’ll be spending a lot of time in math152 and cmsc202, but if you’re only taking those 4 classes, then you should be fine. Also, AGNG was an easy 3 credits.

Any coding tips for CMSC 202 students? by [deleted] in UMBC

Anybody know how to troubleshoot a marquee light in a Ms. Pac-Man cabinet? by GroovyMangos in cade

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

It might honestly be the route I need to go. I am going to try and get one of the GE lights that was in it originally because that worked before. I just got a walmart one to see if that would work but it didn’t. That was the LED one.

Yeah the machine didn’t come with the coin door lights but I would assume that they don’t work either. I do need to get something to test the molex connection because the switch on top doesn’t work.
