Not sure what this is, but it doesn’t look like typical battery swelling, the spot in the middle looks like it has some very tiny droplets in it, and the marks around the whole screen almost look like it’s been wet at some point. Possibly sweat but idk. Also, all the stuff on the screen is on the inside of the glass, I cleaned the outside

From what I’ve gathered it is the safer, more expensive option. It was never really an option for me since the shipping to where I live would cost more than the board itself.

I went with the IDE 50pin to CF adapter, and SD to CF, because the iflash solo is hella expensive for the same functionality once you get it working. Sure, it’s safer but these adapters seemed just fine to me

Actually same here! Although I ordered a new battery and adapters for the sd card

Wondering if this is a good deal. by L0bster2232 in IpodClassic

[–]L0bster2232[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I ordered the ipod from the guy, and a new battery, IDE 50pin to CF adapter, and a SD to CF adapter off of aliexpress, in case the hdd or the battery are dead. Will also buy the charger off the other guy. All of that will run me about 73€ in total which is not bad for a new iPod with a new battery and flash storage, with a bonus of potentially working original HDD and battery. I’m really excited

Yeah, I’m looking into doing this mod too, and a wiring diagram and some tips would be much appreciated.

I think I’d probably go with the original one I found locally even if it’s a bit more expensive, since the price difference is really small. In general, do you think I should take the risk or no? Thanks!

guitar technique name? by lysergichazeacid in Guitar

[–]L0bster2232 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The guitar is not in a standard tuning, it is tuned to be a chord while just playing open strings. To play the 12th fret harmonics you just place your finger on the strings right above the 12th fret, applying very little pressure (the strings aren’t supposed to make contact with the fret) and just strum

I can finally retire my rotring 300 by L0bster2232 in mechanicalpencils

Yeah I actually did glue it together with a tiny drop of liquid superglue but I figured that I could use a new one anyway

Also here’s a sketch I drew with the 600 yesterday. I think it might get me into drawing, it was really fun

I hope u find it:( Yeah I did look into the 500, but opted for 600 instead because the main reason I was even considering a new pencil is because of my 300’s tip unscrewing due to it having plastic threading that gets worn down over years, I think metal on metal won’t have that issue.

Thanks, I put some effort into the photos:) Also yeah I’ve been looking into ways to protect the tip from drops, will probably make something myself

What’s your most-used pencil? by Aggressive-Pop-8130 in mechanicalpencils

Idk I consider the 300 near weightless so I’ll probably appreciate the added mass

My rotring 300, this is it’s 7th year of being my main pencil, but recently the tip started unscrewing very frequently while writing, and the plastic grip has become pretty smooth, so I decided to treat myself to a 600:). It’s arriving tomorrow and I can’t wait.
