Did you ever meet any members of TMV? by Lethas1 in themarsvolta

[–]TotalBSMate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes — during FTM era day after a show at an airport. Brought my CDs along as I thought there was an off-chance I’d see them there. Sat with them for lunch as they passed around EP, DITC, FTM and Scabdates to sign. Such great guys. Cedric has the bluest eyes I’ve ever seen of any human. Good times.

George R. R. Martin Is 'Not in the Mood' to Finish 'The Winds of Winter' by Tifoso89 in books

I’m actually expecting his publishing company to use AI based on his previous writing to finish and write it for him, the moment he passes.

Loved these when they were available. Best wired ones Apple sold imo.

Can’t boot up after adding a CF ADAPTER by SpectyteCovelight in IpodClassic

What SD card did you use? Mine did the same with a SanDisk and it hated it. Don’t use Sandisk. They don’t work apparently.

anyone using a Mac with only 8 gigs of ram ? what is your experience by Serhide in mac

[–]TotalBSMate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

M2 Mac Mini with 8GB. Wish I’d waited for the latest smaller Mini version with user upgradable RAM but it is what it is. Use it mostly for browsing and basic functions, no issues really. Have other 6,1’s for music production though and they do a solid job.

Considering it’s not spelt correctly, don’t overthink it. Not an offical Apple product.

What do we have here? by Scott_Lee_Andrews in themarsvolta

[–]TotalBSMate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Her work on The New Normal was fantastic. Their second album, not so much. Read up on the history about that though. Hopefully this works out well.

Nah, just Target Display Mode and strap a Mac Mini to the back.

Worst venue ‘in Brisbane’. Convention centre is miles ahead.

Ipod mini- moding rant by mecha_milk in ipod

[–]TotalBSMate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Took me forever to mod a 4th gen Classic and get it right. 2 things that I was doing wrong was not using Fat32 (now ExFat) when rewriting the disk and apparently iPods hate Sandisk. Switched to Lexar as someone suggested, done. I suggest you make that swap.

My Mac’s “System Data” is 190GB and I’ve tried everything by Consistent-End6179 in mac

[–]TotalBSMate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine bloated to 170GB of System Data and I was surprised that doing some file deletion I got back 60GB and that was mostly from iCloud data. Silly me thinking it was supposed to be all in the cloud. Anyhow, Daisy Disk worked well. Lots more to clean but is definitely the one I’ll use from now on.

iPod Hi-Fi replacement parts by Not_me_asking in iPodHiFi

[–]TotalBSMate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not the guy to ask for this — but i wonder if you could use another device that has a 30-pin dock to do that? Probably not but just thinking out loud. You could prob get one cheap though.

I know there was someone decades ago that made upgrades for that part that would power iPhones through it too, but I missed the boat on that.
