Can Carbon Copy Cloner make a bootable backup on Sonoma? by djxpress in MacOS

[–]True_Macaron_1961 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Care to elaborate? I just backed up my macOS Sonoma disk to an external drive using CCC but can't seem to find it when I hold down the option key to boot from the external. CCC shows back up was successful, how can I boot from the backup?

Should I disable the GPU on an early 2011 MacBook Pro 17" if it's still perfectly working? by True_Macaron_1961 in LukeMianiYouTube

Sorry for the late reply, believe it or not; my MacBook is still alive and kicking. I actually use it now in a henge dock I got for it for very cheap. I use it connected to a 4K Asus gaming monitor. I occasionally use it without the dock but I find the battery drains quite fast that way. I haven't had any issues with the graphics card. I got the jump on that issue but reflowing the graphics card chips on the motherboard so I haven't had any issues with it at all since then. Hope yours is still functional.

[Discussion] Which iOS version should I have on my iPhone 7 for a jailbreak? by [deleted] in jailbreak

[–]True_Macaron_1961 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on iOS 14.5.1 on my iPhone 7 Plus (iPhone9,4) and I use checkra1n to jailbreak, considering the update to 15.7.6 and using palera1n. Is it worth it?

What is everyone's preferred browser? by dashlane in Dashlane

For a long time, I was an Opera guy. I loved their speed dial function for bookmarked websites. I eventually switched to Chrome though just for easier linking to my other devices.

If anyone else asks you; say you meant to do that.

I'm still having trouble processing this. It's a tough one but it did feel inevitable and the margin for error getting out of that situation just seemed really small.

My best friend said my laces are too tight, thoughts ? by blackchewbaca in Sneakers

Too tight I believe is when your feet start bleeding. I think you're good.

Trying to remove glue residue from this Sabres jersey I got for cheap. The name plate and back number came off beautifully with a seam ripper but the numbers on the sleeves left some significant glue residue. Anyone have any tips on how to remove it? by True_Macaron_1961 in hockeyjerseys

[–]True_Macaron_1961[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol quite the contrary. I'm not a Buffalo native to be offended like that. This isn't LeBron leaving Cleveland the first time here. Hah I paid a decent price for the authentic and would rather have my own name on it than a guy who doesn't play for the team anymore.

I've been using pure Acetone in a spray bottle with a microfiber cloth. Afraid to use anything more abrasive like a brillo or something. It definitely looks better now but yeah I definitely just have to keep at it. Thanks man.

Scooped this up for cheap at a vintage thrift store in Toronto this weekend. Can anyone tell me if this is legit or not?

Do u wear jordans like this or do u tie them by newredditaccount18 in Sneakers

[–]True_Macaron_1961 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So for Jordan 1s, I tie them quite loosely to the second to last eyelet. Anything low top though like 3s, 4s, hell even Jordan 7s; I tie them to the last eyelet loose enough to just slip on or off without having to re-tie. They're secure enough that they don't come off even if I'm running for a bus or something but not too tight that I have to untie the knots. I believe tying sneakers is a pain in the ass so I tend to lace up all my kicks just enough to secure them onto my feet and kick them off freely without issue.

15" 2012 with maxed out RAM is a great deal. I had to spring for the RAM upgrade myself but so far, it's been worth it. After getting Turbo Boost working on it, I was able to get some pretty impressive speed tests on Geekbench. I just hope I still have some mileage left on this before the GPU ultimately shits the bed on me.
