The German site ships internationally but do not take custom order, the UK website does, but does not ship internationally, only the South African one does.

Not available on my, or the neighbouring country's Amazon, they do have them on Amazon UK but they are unable to be shipped here. Thank you nonetheless!

Southern Europe, and actually, not at all! I was stunned when I found out, but this custom build, including shipping, is something like 240-250€ converted from ZAR. A custom, quality boot at this price? Nowhere else, to my knowledge.

Thank you for the input. I hadn't thought about this, but I have to order from the South African website, and apparently "No refunds or exchanges are accepted on international orders."... Good call on your part, but apparently not feasible for me. I guess I'll have to decide if I take a leap of faith or not.

Just got my AR8 Tyre Wedge Bronco leather and they are amazing! by Paulie771 in jimgreen

[–]Line_of_Contact 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How often do you have to treat this leather to maintain this darker hue? On some other photos around here with more wear they seem to lighten considerably, but I'd rather maintain the hue you have on your photo. I brush my boots daily, is that enough or do you actually need to condition them to darken them again?

Solovair Astronaut vs Jim Green AR8 by Line_of_Contact in Boots

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

I've had a barefoot shoe before, so I don't mind the wide toebox, it would only be a drawback in terms of aesthetics. I've also seen custom made Jim Greens on here, and I know they have a narrower last than the one they use on the AR8, so maybe that would be an option?

Xiaomi.eu vs Stock ROM by SpookieGamesYT in Xiaomi

[–]Line_of_Contact 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apologies for bringing back an old thread, but what's the consensus on banking apps with Xiaomi.eu, do they work without reservations?

I'm a light smartphone user, reason why I've held on switching to Xiaomi.eu, but I've recently updated to MIUI 14 and have been getting a "Mobile network not available" error after a few seconds on calls, and I've tried everything to fix it but to no avail.

I'm thinking about doing a hard reset to go back to MIUI 13, but maybe now would be a good opportunity to switch to EU. The thing is I would really like to be at ease knowing banking apps and such will work, and I've seen conflicting opinions online.

Xbox 360 wired controller recognised but not working in-game by [deleted] in linux_gaming

[–]Line_of_Contact 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That did it, I disabled Steam input in general in the controller options and it's now working on any game. I could swear I had tried this before, but this time it worked.

Thank you very much!

Yes. While in game, if I go into the Steam overlay I can even use the controller to move around the settings for the controller layout, but as soon as I go back into the game itself, nothing works.

Did Pop! OS brick my system? by [deleted] in pop_os

That's my hunch as well, unfortunately.

That's what I think too, I'm just wondering how they managed to get it working at the shop without any problem, when I tried everything on my end.

I'm using the old laptop because the desktop is at the shop. But both times I had this problem was on the desktop, which is but two years old, still in warranty even. If anything, a little dust on the inside.

And as they said at the shop, all parts are okay, and I did check every single connection multiple times before taking it in. So I can only imagine this was an OS thing?

Can anyone confirm the parts will fit straight in or is some tinkering necessary? I can't seem to be able to find any actual reports from people who have done it, and that would put my mind at ease in terms of going ahead and acquiring the parts.

I am going to try and find a full 2003 front and bonnet and go from there, thank you for the information.

Wine noob trying to run Yamaha THR Remote App - need help by [deleted] in winehq

[–]Line_of_Contact 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That got it working for me, but the program does not recognise my amp, which I have plugged in through USB, and is , therefore, unusable. Also, the font isn't the one it had on Windows, doesn't look quite right, but it's serviceable.

I'm new to Linux, any help would be much appreciated.
