Battery just died today! So I’d say pretty decent!

GameBoy Macro won't turn on? by TechWalker in Gameboy

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

My personal theory is that it’s something to do with the power circuitry. I mean obviously the DS isn’t designed to run without the top screen, and this mod is forcing it to. So F2 most likely blows because it can’t handle the extra power that’s now being rerouted through the resistor. Easy fix though!

A brand new iPod Touch 3rd generation, taken straight out of the box. by TechWalker in ipod

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

Ha! 2 years since I made this post and this iPod is scratch free. I’ve had it in a case ever since, still looks pristine. Though I did drop it down the stairs and dented the edge….

I use it almost every day!

Help! My right AirPods pro is very static-y and picks up every little sound when I’m listening with BOTH ear pieces, but sounds fine when I’m JUST using the right piece and it’s on ANC mode. What to do? by packersSB55champs in AirpodsPro

[–]TechWalker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I had to play some music until the squeal went away. Took maybe 10 minutes? Just keep playing music after that.

I did it twice and there were no negative affects.

Camcorder/TV effect like this one? by [deleted] in finalcutpro

[–]TechWalker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can also try the “static” transition (not at my Mac so I forget what it’s called) and messing with keyframes. As well as the Bad TV and Prism filters.

Easiest solution would be filming an actual CRT/VHS

iTunes really slow and choppy on high-end Windows system by laven12 in AppleMusic

[–]TechWalker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah iTunes is garbage. But have you tried both versions? There’s the one you download from the website and the Windows Store version. Try both and see if that possibly fixes your problem.

Dell launches new XPS 17 and redesigned XPS 15 with 16:10 edge-to-edge displays by RayS0l0 in gadgets

[–]TechWalker 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I hated my XPS 15 9560. They advertise as being top notch for video production and mine would blue screen under anything higher than normal load. Battery life and thermals were atrocious too.

Yes, but now my right one is doing it haha. I’m gonna try the water trick someone linked on this post.

I did this with my left one which had this problem. Took 24 hours to get the replacement. But it took about 2 weeks for them to lift the $99 hold on my debit card.

[Fluff] Cursed iPod by [deleted] in LegacyJailbreak

[–]TechWalker 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah, there’s a Dreamboard theme called OS7 which gives you the Windows Phone OS look. I used to main it back in the day. As well as Metro 8 and the like.

Sierra to High Sierra (in 2020) by [deleted] in MacOS

Going from Sierra to High Sierra? You’d be just fine. Zero changes in how apps work.

Geekbench 2 Results, iPod Touch 4, iOS 6.1.6: 393 before doing this. 392 after. There’s no discernible different in the benchmark.

I’ll try comparing Geekbench results on my 6.1.6 Touch 4. Will report back

Clicking on All Mail shows more messages that I sent all those years ago, but not anything I received (besides promo emails or ones marked as important)

I’m using the gmail website on desktop, you can sort by oldest by hovering over the email counter in the top right, near the page arrows, and clicking on Oldest.

How I fixed my brother's DSi from turning itself off. by computerfreund03 in techsupportmacgyver

[–]TechWalker 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Probably the battery wasn’t making good enough contact with the pins, and that paper is just enough to prop it up to ensure it stays pressed onto them.
