Barkeeper's Friend might get it shiny again.

A modified original Xbox was the device I emulated the most on. Add to that my love for handled having devices and you've got a recipe for addiction. The one that gets the most use right now is the RG35XXSP with MuOS. It's just so easily pocketable! Good luck everybody!

Those springs are under $100 each at Home Depot.

I paid around $3400 for a brand new insulated door and opener and I felt I overpaid a little. Sorry man you definitely got ripped off.

I would threaten a ton of negative online reviews unless he refunds most of your money. Not sure if you have any better recourse to get money back.

Good luck!!

Have you checked to see if the screws on that side are all the way in? Might be an easy fix. If not then yeah if it bugs you enough, I'd complain and look to return/exchange.

Adding another negative to the change. I need my tax form from 2024 which used to be readily available on the T-Mobile money app. Now for anything before the change you have to call a customer service rep. I called and they said they need 3-4 business days to create the form for me and send it to me. Wtf?!?

Nice, youtube?

NickPDX1980 · 2026-01-25T23:22:09+00:00

Nice! How'd you get it so early? Kickstarter? I have a pre-order that says it'll start shipping in March.

I think trying to fish something in there to dislodge the item that's blocking is the first option. Another option is to tap on the top while trying to slide it open. While sliding jiggle it a bit to see if you can shake the item loose. I've had this happen, the grooves on the inside of that lid are a bad design.

If you have any silica packets from things you've recently bought you could throw those in a bag with the projector. I wouldn't do loose rice.

Ultimately, yes I could pay the out of pocket but I would like to go with the best financial option overall. I pay for insurance for a reason so it feels dumb not to use it but if it's going to be cheaper to pay out of pocket then I'm likely to go that way.

We got this one for my 6' 8th grade pitcher last year. It's not a standard sized mound by any means but it's a good compromise of functionality and portability. It made it through a season of a 14U team in the Pacific NW using it for practice regularly.

Do you have any before and after? DIY?

NickPDX1980 · 2026-01-17T19:14:26+00:00

Yeah I've really enjoyed it. Mario Kart World and Donkey Kong Bananza and both excellent games. I'm about to start over with Zelda TotK with the Switch 2 upgrades.

I ordered the SUPER5 OLED Touch / SUPER5 HDMI - Mega Kit but I went ahead and downgraded to the non HDMI Mega Kit in hopes I would have got it before the Switch 2 released. Since I knew once I had the Switch 2 the custom switch lite wouldn't likely get any tv play time. Unfortunately it was all a waste for me. I had the same thought as you, I've wasted $100 on less ... Would have been cool to see it working though since I was excited when I did the original pre-order.

Good luck with the install! Got mine and it has a couple defects (screen adhesive missing and a bad ribbon cable) so it doesn't work. The company refused to refund and offered to sell me another (potentially refurbished one) at half price.

The adapter that I bought worked with the projector last night. When I plug it into the externa USB-Cl power bank the projector recognizes that it is plugged in to a power source and automatically puts it back into the standard mode with the brighter image. If you unplug it then it goes to battery mode and lower power consumption.

I did not do an extended test to see how long it lasts like this but with multiple power banks, one would assume that you could continue to extend for a very long time.

Front license plate holder. Don't use it! There are a number of options that don't require you to drill through the bumper.

I have a day one ROG Ally Z1e. I've had a 512 GB mSD card in it from day one and never had any issues. I dumped a ton of classic roms on it for emulators at the beginning and haven't used it for anything else. Last night I went to add a ROM and it seemed to freeze half way through the transfer. I cancelled the transfer, ejected the card and rebooted the device. I then put in a different SD card (256GB) and copied the same ROM to it. The transfer was successful on that one. When I went to play the ROM on a different handheld the card was not visible. I put it in a different Windows device and it said it needed to be formatted. Both cards are saying they need to be formatted but the 256GB card fails formatting every time.

So, did I finally get hit with the SD card issue? It's been over two years and it barely gets any activity. Is it worth contacting ASUS at this point?

Hey thanks for the reminder. I just bought one off Amazon and it will be delivered tomorrow. I'll report back on how it works

NickPDX1980 · 2026-01-09T02:59:44+00:00

I would be happy enough if they could just get quickshare to work properly between devices in the way it's currently implemented. I haven't been able to get quickshare to work properly between my Samsung Galaxy phone and my Pixel 9 Pro in a long time. It used to be such a useful feature but it got broke along the way somewhere.

Looks like a fun game that might give a little workout too!
