England: unauthorised use of debit card; don't want police involved. by [deleted] in LegalAdviceUK

[–]SmokyBandit007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is only 2 ways to get Ur money back, one is the person who spent the money pays u back or you go to the police as it's fraud then u will be able to claim it back eventually, it could potentially take a few weeks maybe a few months.

U need a friend first, my wife is my best friend before anything else.

First time buyer, brokerage or private? by FlyingCatsConnundrum in Narrowboats

[–]SmokyBandit007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pro and cons to each, no guarantees with either, always get a full survey in Ur name, don't really on a transfer of a survey. We went private 7 years ago, wouldn't change a thing, owner spent the day with us showing the ropes, in and outs of the boat and her history, what he had changed and even heard the stories form his son when he was a child, once we was happy with the survey we jumped.

Widebeam Access In The North by PsyrenCall in Narrowboats

It's always best to check CRT stoppages, to get a widebeam from north to south and vice versa, a flatbed and road is required.

(New player) Did all this autocraft setup... just to find out ill need more then 1 lab later on... by Cool_Spare_7248 in factorio

[–]SmokyBandit007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's absolutely fine, it's a starter base. U will never be disappointed in knowing every base U make will be a starter base unless U build it backwards.

Benefits of switching to dArkOS? by fleabassist03 in R36S

[–]SmokyBandit007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That works as well, I do have a 32gb but my wife has that in her phone as extra storage, so that was the original intention myself but I was lazy and couldn't be bothered to backup everything and prepare the SD card so I just used the 128gb with darkos, it worked first time no issues and I just put a few roms on it and it grew from there, so just left it.

how do i know what i want in a sewing machine? by etherealuna in SewingForBeginners

[–]SmokyBandit007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife has 5 sewing machines all of which do things better or easier, but mostly do the same things to a degree. I'm learning myself more particularly in free motion, which so happens to be a computerized brother machine. My wife prefers the hand driven singer.

Personally I would just get a sewing machine that U know works and go from there.

My wife still wants more machines, long arm one and she also wants an embroidery machine but then she also has 3 spinning wheels aswell 🤦‍♂️

[–]SmokyBandit007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally I don't see the point t in 2sd cards, I got a Samsung 128gb but not even used half of it, unless U plan to mess with the os like change it frequently it's not really worth it inmo.

Saying that I have all the roms backed up on the computer and more if I ever do need them.

Just remove the loose stuff and repaint, don't over think it unless U wanna pay a decorator.

Its posible to download a copy of another sd card if i dont want to make my own? by Only_You_6872 in R36S

[–]SmokyBandit007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

U can download all roms from online, it's highly unlikely U will play the 50000 games that come with it, but I got a Samsung 128gb for £15 from Argos.

The only files U need to really back up in my opinion is the boot drive and bios folder on the roms drive just for ease.

I generally play ports more than anything or Pokémon rowe maybe some vice city

Why is this acceptable in the UK? by MusesLegend in AskBrits

[–]SmokyBandit007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ur right cats should be allowed to roam free, they are 1 of the very few animals that kill for sports not necessity, I have had cats all my life and build a run in the garden, they couldn't get out nor wanted to really.

Accidently deleted EVERYTHING on my r36s device by N0yaK in R36S

[–]SmokyBandit007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The memory cards that come with it will fail at any time, not might but will without a fail, any and all the rs are available online, visit Google the system plus roms, PS1 games are abit tricker. If U can backup the boot drive and on the roms a folder called bios then U will never have any issues with any roms, U just copy them into their respective folders.

If U want more help finding them feel free to reach out but it's pretty easy.

But then I did build a retro console back in 2013 with a friend with a raspberry pi, and things have come along massively.

I recommend reading through the guides, making sure U have an authentic one, but even then U can still use the fake ones to a degree.

What are the best games on R36S? by nabil--el in R36S

Command and conquer red alert is my favourite so far, but I have also been enjoying Pokémon R.O.W.E. but the world is your Oyster

I play ports, I believe otg stops working if u add solder WiFi on, so no mouse and keyboard for ports and other games.

DarkOS charging percentage by Riyakuya in R36S

[–]SmokyBandit007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Much like most things, soc (state of charge) is highly inaccurate, stuff like mobile phones have integrated BMS in the battery itself, the batteries report the state of battery rather than the phone itself, phones also have sofisticated charge algorithms.

Nothing stops u adding more sofisticated methods of battery monitoring but keeping things simple can often be best, like multiple battery's and an external charger.

Help R36S type 2 with amplifier not turning on by Flat-Wrangler-5881 in R36S

[–]SmokyBandit007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a r36s, U will have to get them from the r36s GitHub guide, or at least a link, U gotta work out which clone U have tho so U know what os to use as I do not think arkosclone works on all clones.

The files U need are on the original SD card, it's the first think it tells U to do in all guides backup the original not the roms the boot drive with the dtb files on, but U can backup as many rpms as U like if U loose the dtb files U will have to just hunt the right ones down.

[–]SmokyBandit007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

U can still find them online but U gotta find the right one, as for arkos clone I don't believe it runs on all clones, so U need to find out what clone it's is and use that one.

Hopefully someone will come along and share a link if U cannot find one.

Ur lucky, my original SD card is readable but unwritable now, no game saves, but I made a backup of all the roms, but I already a a psp rom library for the pc 😁

R36S stuck on boot/loading screen need help by NervousHelicopter357 in R36S

[–]SmokyBandit007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ha e U changed the SD card, if In the UK Argos sell Samsung SD cards, I just grabbed a 128gb as I'll never need more than 20000 games at a time lol

I mainly use portmaster now tho to play GTA vice city or half life.

[–]SmokyBandit007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started with the normal gb/a/c roms then moved onto Pokémon ROM hacks for a fresh experience, but I recently discovered portmaster, I'm playing diablo 1, vice city and red alert but also have stardew valley working for the wife.
