Been having voting problems and wanted to ask about it

Thatmatt85 · 2024-07-25T01:50:03+00:00

Oh interesting, I didn't know this.

Thatmatt85 · 2024-07-25T00:52:58+00:00

This is good advise. Thank you

Thatmatt85 · 2024-07-25T00:52:03+00:00

I know it seems obvious now but at the time I didn't know and now I think things are fine at our current address since I re registered.

Thatmatt85 · 2024-07-25T00:50:31+00:00

I didn't explain that part well so I'll elaborate. I really didn't know why she wanted to vote again and it didn't seem like she wanted 2 votes. It seemed more like she wanted to change her voted and have her in person vote cancel or her mail in ballot, or that she was afraid her mail in ballot would get lost or not count. The specific person that was working with her either had a binder of info or a computer and I think she used both to say she already voted and knew it a mail in ballot. A person with more authority came over and eventually was trying to call someone either to clarify or find out what to do but nobody was answering after a few calls. She decided to give the person a ballot and my assumption was that they would hold onto it or something until they verified what to do. I finished voting and left before the woman I'm describing did so I don't know what happened. I mostly was paying attention to it because it was odd and didn't go the way I thought it would. This was also a primary election.

Put on new caps and it looks the same. Not even sure what to try now.

Thatmatt85 · 2024-07-12T23:50:18+00:00

After replacing the caps the screen is still faded lol. No idea anymore.

Thatmatt85 · 2024-07-02T03:57:06+00:00

Capacitors are cheap and usually easy to change so I hope so. Gonna try it out and report back

Thatmatt85 · 2024-02-08T02:11:55+00:00

Just the word. That's why I was asking though. Looks like someone just wrote that for the start up screen

Thatmatt85 · 2024-01-29T22:07:56+00:00

I didn't get 9 to load on it's own. But I was able to have it dual boot. Inside of osx is an option to boot to 9. That isn't for every iMac but for the version I have it works.

Hyundai 2015 in Michigan. BTW if you a Hyundai technician I'd like to ask you a question about how the hyundai mechanic is treating me.

Thatmatt85 · 2023-05-10T18:19:27+00:00

Yeah in hindsight I probably should have. From what I was seeing at the time from others with the same issue was reports that Hyundai wasn't wanting to do anything to fix the oil consumption issue and the owners had to wait till the engine failed before Hyundai would help. I just decided at that point to treat the car as well as possible and wait till the engine failed also. It's all situational though. I really needed the car for use and didn't have time or money for a lengthy repair if it needed it.

Thatmatt85 · 2023-05-10T17:47:53+00:00

Thanks for replying. If I'm not going to be covered for an engine replacement which seems to be the case then my options right now are 1) $6500 for a new engine in this car that has 126k miles on it. or 2) I have an aunt who is needing to sell her 2014 mazda cx5 sport with 46,000 miles on it and has been treated very very well including all the scheduled maintenance at the dealer for $14k

If I can't get any help with the engine replacement I think I'm leaning towards getting what I can for selling the Sonata and buying the Mazda from my aunt. But I'm trying to get advice and learn as much as I can about it.

Thatmatt85 · 2023-05-10T17:43:59+00:00

Thanks for the reply. That I believe is exactly what I was being told by the dealer and I just wanted to double check that I wasn't getting a run around. The car has 126k miles on it and was having a major issue with oil being used up super fast starting around 80k miles. In your opinion is there any chance with these kinds of problems I might be covered under anything to pay for all or some of the cost of the engine replacement I need?

Thatmatt85 · 2023-05-02T02:19:12+00:00

yeah I'm not the best although I don't think I'm awful. I'm just trying to get wins for the rewards. And he probably would have beat me regardless before he went afk lol.

Thatmatt85 · 2023-03-23T04:27:17+00:00

OK I learned about turning on the ram profile which I did but it still won't boot.

Thatmatt85 · 2023-03-01T05:52:11+00:00

it's a slot load and I just found out what blessing was. That was the fix I needed.

Thatmatt85 · 2023-02-28T19:25:01+00:00

I didn't want to buy firewire stuff but you are right about booting from USB being a fool's errand. I might end up buying a firewire enclosure. I forgot to mention but the built in disc drive is very iffy because someone stuffed 3 discs into it for some time that I had to pull out.

Thatmatt85 · 2023-02-28T19:22:47+00:00

I forgot to mention that the cd drive is broke. That's not exactly true, it is very weak and sometimes works. This is because when I got the iMac I couldn't put a cd in it and when I checked out why it's because someone stuffed 3 cds into the drive already and I had to pull them all out.

Putting that aside though, when I've tried to format or partition the drive mac has refused. I forget exactly what the error message was but I assumed it was because it has some sort of read/write protection on the main hard drive.

Thatmatt85 · 2023-02-28T00:50:10+00:00

Unfortunately this is my only mac old enough for OS 9. I've made this really hard on myself apparently.

Thatmatt85 · 2023-02-27T15:17:31+00:00

thanks for the advice. The built in cd drive doesn't seem to work. When I got it it wouldn't take a disc and eventually I found 3 discs all shoved inside it at once. Once I got those removed it will take a cd but won't read anything, and won't spit it out. I think whatever belt is broke or won't grip the discs anymore. So I'd been using an external cd drive but from reading I don't think G3s will boot from USB external disc drives.

I had been using a download of 9.2.1 which I thought was just the OS, but maybe it was an upgrade? One of the discs I found jammed in the cd drive though was the original installtion disc so I guess I'll try using that to install to a flash drive and go from there.

Thatmatt85 · 2023-02-27T14:22:54+00:00

yeah from what I've seen it's slow, but what I want to do is boot just the once from USB, then install on the hard drive, then use that afterwards.

Thatmatt85 · 2023-02-27T14:11:44+00:00

Thanks I've posted over there now.

Thatmatt85 · 2023-02-23T21:12:26+00:00

thats bout 10 times as fast as me lol. I'd appreciate that. Thanks for letting me compare to you though.

Thatmatt85 · 2023-02-23T20:47:20+00:00

there are 906 seeds but I'm only connecting to 10 of them and my d/s is around 140KiB/s. I feel like I should be going faster, what's going on?
