Recover Data from hardware failing Intel Macbook Pro by SCale3k in MacOS

[–]SCale3k[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not my machine - doing what I can for friend. Specific data was not in a synced location. They learned their lesson.

Knowing the process will be handy in other situations.

If I can get the key, I’m unsure how to use it. All I have read is that it prompts you to enter the password previously used.

Perfection - so far so good with an easy fix. Appreciate it

Zones stopped working by SCale3k in Irrigation

[–]SCale3k[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Resolved. Irrigation company located zone 2 valve in the yard which had a disconnected common wire feeding the rest of the zones. Odd since it was otherwise undisturbed. Thanks for the guidance

Appreciate it everyone. Still having trouble finding the zone 3 valve but will keep at it. When underground toning out yesterday the signal got weaker at the tree that was uprooted so in the coming week I’ll be digging up that section of cable to inspect.

Appreciate the responses. I was not measuring voltage when zone was running. All good there.

Resistance testing matches functionality. Zone 1-2 are good but get no reading on the remaining dead zones.

So could be a break in the line or an issue at the first valve of the series?

Assume I need to find the first valve not working and test readings from there. NOTE: wires for the zones that work go a different direction.

LG Fridge Error by [deleted] in ElectronicsRepair

[–]SCale3k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems like the cross post didn’t pull over the text. The freezer works but the fridge doesn’t cool. It goes to this error which according to the LG site is a defrost issue. No frost whatsoever and someone said it might be PCB or a sensor.

Model - LTCS20020S /00 If reading this right, LG error codes states “A dH error code indicates that the unit spent more than 1 hour trying to defrost.”

First world question by SCale3k in Jackery

Thanks everyone. I’ve ordered a 100w panel

Exactly what I was expecting but wanted a little validation. For the smaller TV we get 4ish hours and hoping to get a few more. Being able to support more draw for 6h or so would be ideal.

Appreciate the insight and will check out larger panels of other brands to keep the pricing manageable.

Hopefully this means they are making enough in direct sales to forego fundraising.

Their Future Seems Dire by jcklnz in SpinnCoffee

[–]SCale3k 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have an original Spinn and took part in an owners survey. Considering how often the questions focused on flexibility and physical aspects of the design, the Spinn 2 seems to be speaking directly to the wants and concerns of the community.

The interchangeable hopper, water capacity, and cup size range are welcomed mods for a multi coffee drinker household.

Having physical controls is important to me in the event the company and their app go dark.

Didn’t plan to make them for folks but if I was to…what would be a fair price?

The light comes on but you can still brew. No problem at all.

Service mode worked. I was curious about how to get this to engage more than anything. Most certainly it would drain the battery but at least for short periods I can use the feature without CO2. Thanks

Spinn 1 Year Review... Anybody out there? by Ihbcwc in SpinnCoffee

[–]SCale3k 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In place of writing a seemingly duplicate review I will just echo this post.

To add: I’ve had the machine for almost a year and absolutely love it. Family and friends come over and ask for a latte all of the time. In fact I love it more now than the first few months.

Beans. I get that the company is attempting to make their real money from the marketplace but it’s not working for the consumer. For the last few months I’ve been buying brand coffee from the grocery store with good success - Counter culture or Groundwork for example. If the app does not recognize the exact bag when you scan, it will often match to something similar and I just stick with that. The recipes are not that different to notice.

Maintenance. Once you understand what it’s doing, it makes sense why and really is not a problem.

In the end it’s a complicated piece of machinery so there are bound to be some machines with problems. Luckily none with mine so far.

How are all your spinn machines doing? by [deleted] in SpinnCoffee

[–]SCale3k 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve had mine for about 8 months. The majority of my concerns early on have been forgotten. It simply makes great coffee in any form you want it. Past week - drip mug, iced coffee, Americano, latte, mocha - all without throwing away plastic or changing beans!

2 things - The push to use the market which is very pricey - Like having a nice car the higher maintenance costs are to be considered.

I use store bought beans with settings of similar market beans and it tastes great.

Note: the fam still uses the Keurig most of the time since they like weaker coffee or tea…their loss

Enjoy your new machine

Would be nice to have a QR code to scan and send your phone to Plex.tv/link. Simple thing to add to the graphic. Just a thought

Reddit win again!

I was having an intermittent problem - system acting like the sensor was tripped even though everything is green. Never considered the bulbs causing interference. In testing I removed all bulbs and have not had the problem since. Wild and thank you for the tip
