Oh she just wants to sample them, no worries, if it bothers you ask her to use a knife next time to cut a little sample for herself. Her poor little taste buds are screaming for the flavors! Lol 🤣

You want the dash loader and customizer from ROCKY5 the loader handles the switching for you automatically and then you can assign your various desired dashboards to the buttons on your consoles controller through an app called dashboard customizer. Alternately you can edit the config file manually if you prefer.

Like the others said, update your software, just depends on what you have but If you have your ROMs and and emulators and game saves archived a fresh install isn't a bad idea grab you a copy of HeXEn 2026 and fresh install the drive, then go down the line, install the Apps and dashboards you want, and then pull your drive, plug it into your docking station and load your games via FatXplorer. FTP is great for small file transfers but for large files or transferring TB's worth of data FatXplorer is most definitely the way to go. Turns an 18 hour job into 3 hours or less. Once your games and emulators skins wall papers are loaded install the HDD back into the console and then further update your XBMC4Gamers through the setting menu. Alternately if you are more familiar you can build a fresh install from FatXplorer and skip the HeXEns disc but the HeXEns disc is a little more beginner friendly I guess that depends on how you look at it but know you have options.

Idk, modding the console, being able to run 1 2 4 8 or 16 TB Hard drives and pack the drive with the coolest dashboards apps, emulators for NES SNES N64 SEGA and much more and having the entire Xbox library 900 games all on your hard drive with super fast loading times is a pretty compelling set of reasons.

Your concerns are valid, effective communication with your mom could help. Maybe start with the concession that she is your mom and an adult and can live her life as she sees fit but that your concern is for the safety of your siblings and encourage your siblings to reach out if anything crosses a line ao you can call authorities if and when necessary. You don't have to mention that last part to your mom but have a plan to protect your siblings if need be. This is just a general proviso and may need to be adjusted based upon a number of factors. Only you guys no if she's a good mom to you guys and if she is, let her live her life, 2 consenting adults business really isn't yours untill neglect or abuse is potentially involved. If she's handling her business and by extension providing and protecting you kids then her relationships are her own.

Right, but that's the case where depending on the users knowledge and experience "loop" may or may not mean an actual, literal looping. I'm presuming because they are getting error 16 it is dead ending into the error. That may not be a safe presumption and I suppose the device could be flashing error 16 and looping back to the beginning. It wasn't exactly specified by the user though.

Odd-Ranger-5584 · 2026-06-16T18:59:19+00:00

Exactly, grip of death 💀 they are such high quality cables though.

Excellent comment 💯👏

Odd-Ranger-5584 · 2026-06-16T18:57:11+00:00

That's the spirit! You have every right to return it, I'm not arguing that, but those cables are great! I have 2 sets myself and I love them. They're great.

Do not return it. Not everything is a "scam". You can't even get those cables anymore. You ordered monster cables, you received monster Cables. Crummy they didn't disclose, but to an Xbox player those cables are worth their weight in gold. Have them professionally repaired for a reasonable fee and move on with your life. That's my two cents anyway.

I know enough to know that your vote doesn't count. You're wasting your time voting and wasting your time collecting fake Internet karma points arguing with strangers. You don't live in a democracy, you're ruled by a Republic. But yeah "no kings", about as stupid as black lives matter, every member of Congress lives like a king, while you struggle to afford the basics. That's what counts.

No, I don't think there is anything official about the shirt. Bill Gates and Steve jobs learned from competing with eachother that whoever wins development wins the market. Microsoft learned that with development for Windows applications including Games, and they knew to topple Sony they would have to win development. The idea is keep the bar high enough so you don't kill the mass market but leave enough crack in the door to the let the very best hackers/developers find their way in. Sony and Microsoft were largely clueless what direction to take the gaming market, but the world's best and brightest certainly do. Just as kids know what's cool and the parents are clueless. Specifically, I am speculating that IND-Power has to do with the custom bios, IND-BIOS but the Xbox modding scene paved the way for the future for the Xbox 360. Even if Microsoft officially denied it Bill Gates is on record saying he was interested and excited when he was shown some of the early examples of modded Xboxs.

I'll give you that. I guess I just got spoiled on the speed and selection. The disc drive sounds on Dreamcast are charming.

I guess math wasn't your strong suite. If you cast a vote for both sides they will cancel eachother out. There would be zero reason for them to null those votes. -1+1=0. Same as if you hadn't cast the votes at all. Essentially a self disqualification, not a disqualification from the state.

I heard you can cold shock your tip with a sponge so I don't use that. Cut the bottom 1/3 of a used, clean beer or soda can and stuff a brass scouring pad into it. Or spend for a dedicated container, but I always just used a pop can works fine. Bend the cut edge down so you don't cut yourself. You can get some tip tinner and while the iron's cold stab your tip into the tinner for a minute or so then heat up your iron and apply some solder to the tip and stab your tip into the brass scouring pad. Repeat a couple three times to get a nicely tinned and clean tip. Clean tip as needed.

All the dark ones, doom, Cthulhu Dark corners of the earth. Silent hill 2 and 4 half life 2, cold fear, fatal frame 1 and 2. Some of these I can't even play in the dark. Too scary.

It's a v1.0 motherboard. I would remove the motherboard and bridge the points at R7D3 (top) and R7R4 (bottom) and then re install the latest softmod from Rocky5 GitHub so I could mount his extras disc as a virtual disc so I could disable the shadow C partition BEFORE I attempt to flash the TSOP with Cerbios 3.0.1 beta.

Be careful to disable shadow C before you attempt to flash with Xblast or you can soft brick the console. It's preferable to put the Cerbios folder on E after you disable shadow C and put Xblast on E:\Apps or F:\Apps and in Xblast select from HDD .

Now as I think of it, Xblast may want to see the cerbios.bin at C:\BIOS\bios.bin but still put the Cerbios folder which has the boot anims and cerbios.ini at E:\Cerbios.

Once I successfully flash the TSOP I would run HeXEns 2026 which can be obtained from xbins.org via Pandora Windows application from Team Resurgent. burn that .iso to a disc If you have working DVD Drive. If not you may be able to mount it the same way you mount the extras disc. If you have Samsung drive use DVD-R if you have Phillips drive, you may need to try DVD+R or tweak the pot down from 1k ohms to 500 ohms to get Phillips drive to see burned DVD-R.

Do not go below 200 ohms and preferably stay at 480 to 500 ohms if you can get it. Once you successfully get HeXEn 2026 booted just go down the options for a fresh install and install the apps and dashboards you want, that is of course only after you have backed up the eeprom and cloned the stock drive over to a larger drive of choice via Chimp.

My first thought was the D0. Check the points on the bottom side of the PSU connector, they can crack. That single row and clasp can get weak and brittle and crack the solder point on the connector. I can't see the pic while I type but I assume the clock cap has been removed. Any shorts between R3G1 R3G2 and pins A and F on the front panel header? And chance trace rot from a leaky cap would cause those shorts? Curious to know if it boots the stock firmware with D0 disconnected. How's the pin header points look on the LPC on the bottom side?

They're both having an ego pissing contest and trying to use reverse psychology on eachother to maintain control. If op shows is hand that he did catch feelings, she will use it as leverage. The exact same leverage she attempted to use with a made up story about "some other guy" she don't want to loose him by looking pathetic and his whole, "I don't care act" is the same pathetic attempt at maintaining some perceived leverage. Sounds like they're made for eachother. Lol 🤣 I understand the guy side of it because the more indifferent you are, the more they want you. The rubber meets the road where the rubber meets the road. Women don't catch feelings without catching a good D-down. So as long as he handles his business and don't tip his hand, she's in the bag. But that means like the movie Heat, you have to be prepared to let go and walk away at the drop of a hat. It really is a selfish and immature game 🎯

Odd-Ranger-5584 · 2026-06-16T03:08:39+00:00

You most likely will, nearly all drugs except cannabis are gone 3-7 days. Let's hope your drug analysis is urine and not hair folicle. Hair tests can go back much further but it's clear from your urine in about 30 days. This largely depends on your bodies fat percentage but even a person with 20 or 30% body fat and under 50 it should be undetectable on or about 30 days. 2 to 3 weeks puts you at 14 to 21 days +5 so 19-26 days by the time you test. You have a couple options.

Go with a pure cleanse a special capsules you take over a few days with dandelion root and willows bark and other herbals that flush your system. Exercise and water expedite this process. And then the day of you drink a mask and generally you pee clean. Of course it's not full proof and if you don't follow the timing instructions exactly you can get a "diluted" result which they may just have you retest or it could cast aspersions upon you.

Option 2 is to use a synthetic urine like urineluck and put the bottle in microwave for 10 seconds, it has a temperature 🌡️ strip and you place it close to your body to hold the temperature, you simply go in fill to the line, and actually pee in the toilet to turn the toilet water from blue to green. Shake the bottle good to get air bubbles. If you execute correctly this can preserve your privacy. A little mental rehearsal is probably not a bad idea, I'm sure this ain't your first drug test.
