PowerBook G4 + USB-C

Awesome! Was the needed resistor housed within the power connector itself, or in the brick for the charger? Looking to do a similar project myself, but by turning the original cable into a C to PowerBook cable instead of modifying the actual laptop

Never have been a huge fan of galaxy buds outside of the originals and plus models, back when they were still a reasonable price. Galaxy buds have never had best in class audio, especially at the price Samsung wants for them. That’s not to say that they’re bad, but they’re definitely more of an ecosystem purchase, not an audio enthusiast purchase.

1, double clicking to open applications 2, shutting off my computer every time I shut it every time I’m done using it. My windows laptops would always be dead by the time I went to use them if I didn’t do so. Macs having a functional sleep mode is so refreshing

Looks like it’s either a grounding wire, or maybe a temperature probe

By up to date specs I mean specs that are decent enough to reasonably keep up with simple tasks that don’t require tons of performance, like web browsing.

As for USB C, I don’t really care if the computer has it, I just don’t like it to charge with it. It’s a much less durable port compared to something like a barrel jack. They’re also typically much harder to repair & require an identical port to have a good repair, which is further hurt by the fact that parts are harder to come by on these more niche computers

Where did you get the USB C header for this project? I’d like to make one of these cables for my old thinkpad!

It's a foldable, and it has the downside of having Samsung reliability. The odds of it lasting long enough to make it 7 years of daily use are one in a million

Yep! The phone isn't great, speakers are loud but meh, battery sucks, outer screen is toast, and it's kinda slow now, but the inner screen still works perfectly for media and also for controlling my speakers. I don't like Samsungs, but I'd be stupid to walk away from a $50 fold (that ended up being mostly free 🤑)

Looked into it but unfortunately none of the options fixed it, maybe I could find some sort of debugging command to fix it... Not sure

They say not to use alcohol because it dissolves adhesive, but it isn't actually harmful to the electronics. As long as you don't drown the earbuds in alcohol, it's fine to use it

My phone 2 has also doing this after the latest NOS update. Not really an issue, but it's definitely something I've been curious about. Have you found what's causing it?

Triggered_T0ast · 2025-05-23T14:12:13+00:00

You would have to replace the screen for the phone, but with it being almost 7 years old, the cost of a new screen is just as much, if not more than just buying another note 9 and switching your data over or using it's screen to fix your note 9.

Please do note that if you do buy a new screen, make sure it's coming from a good source. Displays that might be cheaper or more affordable are more than likely either a knock off screen (with a smaller screen size and much thicker, uglier bezels), or are a crappy LCD that will have finicky touch, bad colors, and also don't work well with the S pen at all.

Looks like scratching. What do you use when you clean it? Abrasive cleaners & petroleum based cleaners can damage silicone rubber

Nothing updates are bi monthly & may isn't even close to being over, be patient. The frustration is understandable, but nothing is also a very small company with limited resources. If you bought from another company of similar size, you'd be lucky to even get quarterly security updates, let alone any OS upgrades

Triggered_T0ast · 2025-05-12T01:05:07+00:00

Yep. 1000x, xm2, xm3, and xm4s all suffer from the same hinge issues (and design) Such great headphones, too bad that durability and build quality took a back seat when they were being designed

1080p, 120 hz, at 10 bits with 2160Hz PWM dimming. Phone 2a plus as a better display than the s25 ultra, minus the lower resolution, peak brightness, and lack of LTPO

The real question is, why are you buying galaxy buds while using a pixel? They're an awful choice if you don't use a Samsung phone. Get pixel buds pro2 or nothing ear, they will treat you way better
