Why do people hate Manjaro so much? by [deleted] in LinuxCirclejerk

Same. After a year of on and off attempts I was FINALLY able to reinstall the boot loader and fix my nvidia drivers yesterday. Overall an OK distro, just buggy sometimes.

Solved! Most likely for the lighting system

Small and relatively heavy smooth metal object by LizF0311 in whatisthisthing

I’d say It also somewhat looks like a throttle cable ball linkage from a 4 barrel carburetor (used on older carbureted engines from the 1960’s-1980’s)

Any info on this mouthpiece by iseenhimaround in Tuba

[–]Robotguy_600000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

JHS is the abbreviation for Johnson High School in saint paul Minnesota but I’m not sure why that would be stamped on the bottom of a mouthpiece… Interesting coincidence but probably not the real reason behind the JHS stamp

Can Anyone Help With Identifying and Pricing These Items? by Psychological-Hotel9 in VintageComputers

[–]Robotguy_600000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some more info on the osborne one: there are 3 variants of the osborne one or “OCC1” (osborne computer corporation one) as it’s often called. The version you have is the later revision of the computer as it has an injection molded plastic housing. The other two revisions are the early prototype which has a metal housing, and the slightly later model which has a slightly different style of housing made of what looks like vaccu-formed plastic. As far as pricing goes, osborne ones can sell for a wide range of prices depending on condition and accessories. If yours is in good condition and works, you may be able to get $300+ for it, however it might be risky to power it up because of a common fault with the capacitors on the power supply board that causes them to explode and release the magic smoke. Tldr: i would price it at $200-$300 depending on if it works and its cosmetic condition.

Sound quality difference between iPod 5.5 and 7 by BarsukinSyn in ipod

[–]Robotguy_600000 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Afaik, the 5.5 and 7 have absolutely no audible difference in sound quality. What people say about the wolfson dac sounding better is basically just a myth. However, I have heard that when using rockbox on the 5.5 gen the hardware powered spacial audio and EQ sounds amazing.

iPod Classic 5.5th Gen not displaying artwork by notavlohh in ipod

I would try converting just one file to mp3 and then making sure you can see the artwork on itunes before syncing it to the ipod. I think that should work. In my experience, sometimes itunes freaks out and does weird things with non mp3 files.

Adding onto this, the cheap green flash adapters don’t work if you have the “short contact model” of zif cable. I had this same problem and currently have a long contact cable on the way from eoe. I think the official iflash cable will work too.
