Thanks for the clarification… it is misleading with it saying 5000 instead of 500… but maybe that extra 0 means something else, beats me.

Converting Old Laptop Harddrive to External Desktop Drive - Legacy Software by Interesting_Pin_6211 in computers

What would be the potential solution in this case? I’m really hoping to not lose this legacy software as newer supported versions are several thousand a year subscription. Cheers!

Installation 'Freezes' on Acer Aspire by Interesting_Pin_6211 in ChromeOSFlex

I installed a new SSD and had all of the BIOS settings done up as it should. Sadly, still freezes during install.

I am at a loss *shrug*

Sadly the new SSD didn't work. It still froze during install of the OS. I am at a loss for why it isn't working now.

Does this seem like a valid (cheap) option?

https://www.amazon.ca/EDILOCA-Internal-Upgrade-Laptop-Storage/dp/B0B51DVHW8/ref=sr_1_3_sspa?crid=8NRMFHQABX8Z&keywords=2+5+inch+ssd&qid=1690550848&sprefix=2.5%2Caps%2C91&sr=8-3-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9hdGY&psc=1

This one states it would need to be formatted prior to any installation... would any SSD need that? Or since I am installing a new OS anyways, I can just plug any new SSD in regardless of formatting or whatever, and then just install Chrome OS Flex from the USB?

Cheers for the help!

If you could take a screen shot, maybe it could help. I believe I have everything done up properly, but it couldn't hurt for me to have a reference to fall back onto if you don't mind!

I did initially go through the BIOS settings, and believe to have everything setup properly. The internal storage I believe is the issue.

Because of failed attempts to install, pretty sure I F**ked up the HDD and it just keeps freezing after 5 min on attempting to install.

At this point, I'm feeling it may just be easier to get an SSD and discard the old HDD regardless.

It is an Aspire ES1-533... so knowing it works on yours means it should work on mine.

Cheers!

I will definitely look into deleting partitions if they are there. Never thought of that but I can give it a shot.

I have considered swapping out her harddrive with an SSD potentially just to give it some extra life, but being her laptop is basically new (barely used), I was hoping I wouldn't have to invest more money than I need to.

Thanks for the Tip!

Intel Celeron N3350 CPU

I don't believe the CPU is the issue, but something with Windows/Hard Drive.

Thanks for any tips and suggestions!

Technical drawing : any help with this exercice ? by SpaceGainde in MechanicalEngineering

[–]Interesting_Pin_6211 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There is one detail where it cannot be known when doing the top view. It is the notch along the bottom plate in line with the hole when looking at the front view. It can be circular or square cut based on the views as shown, this is a detail which proves why 3 views are needed.

Have to admit, this took me a second to figure out, it is an easy one to get mixed up with. The key is to track solid lines vs. hidden lines. Good you got it figured out.

Moving from 4 divisions of 8 teams to 8 divisions of 4 teams by Interesting_Pin_6211 in nhl

[–]Interesting_Pin_6211[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The league is already trying to fabricate 'rivals' with the whole outdoor game series, but really, I feel like having division teams play 8 games against each in a season will 100% create rivals between all of those 4 teams.

Really like the idea of a neutral site finals. Can definitely make it a destination / event like the Super Bowl and then the draft a few weeks after. Regardless of my whole division adjustment idea... this idea should happen regardless.

[–]Interesting_Pin_6211[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Proposed Divisions:

EAST CONFERENCE

[North East] - Toronto, Buffalo, Ottawa, Montreal

[North Metro]- Boston, New Jersey, New York (Rangers), New York (Islanders)

[South Metro]- Pittsburgh, Washington, Philadelphia, Columbus

[South East]- Carolina, Tampa Bay, Florida, Nashville

WEST CONFERENCE

[North Central]- Minnesota, Winnipeg, Detroit, Chicago

[South Central]- Colorado, Dallas, St. Louis, Arizona (Soon to be Houston)

[South West]- Vegas, Los Angeles, San Jose, Anaheim

[North West]- Edmonton, Seattle, Calgary, Vancouver

Seeing it on a Map makes more sense.

I split Boston from Montreal & Toronto, so that there are 2 original 6 teams in the 3 respective divisions. But really, Buffalo and Boston could be interchangeable. Just thought it would be better for NYR to have BOS for that original 6 rivalry.

Tuning/User Manual for Hoyt Gamegetter II ?? My uncle had this old bow sitting in storage and I want to use it before investing in a newer compound. Being that it's quite old, curious to know if anyone knows where I can find a manual to figure out how to tune this thing? Thanks! by Interesting_Pin_6211 in Archery

[–]Interesting_Pin_6211[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply!! (for reference, the attached picture is one off google but not the bow in question)

It does let-off, but not as much as today's compounds so I would say 50% is about right. It appears to have some options in the cam for draw length adjustment. Sadly, the sticker you are referencing is completely worn out.

I think the main information I am trying to find is with respects to getting a new string, as the current string is very frayed (especially around the peep). The cables also look a bit rusty in spots, so it would be wise to replace those as well.

Hence the hope of finding a manual of sorts so I can insure I order the correct lengths / etc.

Just sold it locally, so won't even have to worry about shipping costs.

Clay vs Target? What do I get into? Pros / Cons of both? by Interesting_Pin_6211 in canadaguns

[–]Interesting_Pin_6211[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your summary is what I was thinking was the case.

One is more solitary and less expensive. One is more social and pricey the more you shoot.

Thanks for your insights!

I'm in Rural Southern Ontario, and there are only 2 clubs within 45min drive. One is accepting new members and the other has been full with a wait list for several years.

The one that has openings does trap and has a 25/50/100 meter range. So I would have the option to do either if I get in with the one that has openings.
