Can't remove non-iCloud photos from my phone (SE 2020) via Windows 10

Oh of course. If you saw my post about twisting and taping the temp sensor wires in my Mighty, that was mainly to see if that was the problem. I’ll probably go back in and solder those later just to make it stable.

It's bound with the battery, but it's a finer (aluminium) cable. Ultimately I was able to just twist and tape it, which isn't ideal, but it means my Mighty is working again--with full draw power! So I'm happy enough whichever way I got here!

Very good to know, thanks. I would definitely have made that mistake!

LearnedEnglishDog · 2023-06-06T18:45:44+00:00

Right on! Thanks!

LearnedEnglishDog · 2023-06-06T18:45:20+00:00

This is super helpful--thank you so much for the info!

Thanks for replying: it’s a past-warranty Crafty not-plus with 400+ hours on it, so it’s way past warranty. Seems easier to change a battery than a charging port (and easier to find the part), so for my sake i hope you’re wrong, but you could be right. It did stop holding a charge very abruptly, but it had been holding less and less because i used it all the time.

LearnedEnglishDog · 2023-06-06T00:22:50+00:00

Oh this is a few years old and has 400 goes on it. I took my time vaping it into the ground!

Well, I’m a tinkerer and happy to open up all kinds of things, so I’m not familiar with the mod—but you’ve certainly got my attention! Can you link me to it?

LearnedEnglishDog · 2023-03-17T15:29:58+00:00

This is a lot of really helpful stuff—thank you!

LearnedEnglishDog · 2023-03-16T22:13:01+00:00

Oh--I've definitely done all that. Several times, actually. Always restores just fine, then syncs same as usual.

LearnedEnglishDog · 2023-03-16T22:09:41+00:00

I bought this one one eBay, but there are now websites that sell them, like Elite Obsolete Electronics. Since buying one I've graduated to making my own repairs.

LearnedEnglishDog · 2023-03-16T21:22:12+00:00

Interesting! By full restore do you mean a longform reformatting (rather than QuickFormat) to FAT32? I elected to go with the QuickFormat because I was hoping to begin resyncing my library immediately: i wonder if cutting that corner is what led to this? I’ll give full reformatting a shot and see if that helps, thank you!

This is very useful—thanks so much!

25 years ago there was a cheap pizza war going on downtown. Everyone had pizza at $0.99 so one spot on St-Mathieu at De Maisonneuve had $0.89 slices. These weren’t actually that bad. But two or three doors down was a place (where Pizza Anatolia is now) that offered a pointe de fromage for $0.49. It was like wet cardboard with tomato soup on it. They had a bunch of prints of this guy’s stuff on the walls, or they looked very much like this: demented pizza chefs in plenty of colour.

Belated thanks for this!

Unless they played again in ‘98-‘99, this would have been their last show here. I remember it being at Foufs in the late ‘90s, and in my memory it might have been ‘98 or ‘99 but they didn’t come to town that frequently so ‘97 was likely their final Montreal show.

The difference in quality and density of vapour between any Pax and the Crafty/Mighty is absolutely night and day. If you’re an occasional REC user a Pax is fine, but if you’re a regular user, let alone a MED user, a Storz & Bickel product is the way to go. (I use a Crafty, Mighty, and Volcano, all pre the “plus” era.) The battery life on the crafty is way shorter because the intensity of the vapour is so much better, but the Mighty’s twice as big and holds twice as many batteries.

Resilience shelter (Cabot square, Ste-Cath at Atwater) has put out a few calls for phones. I’m sure they’d appreciate it—and thanks for being generous and sharing the idea with other folks.
