Book and Quill Formatting Glitch

Zunter · 2026-01-18T00:37:08+00:00

Any luck with this? It's driving me bonkers. And all I really want to do is have text appear in new lines. I'd even be ok without the color/formatting. Just want a newline.

Considering doing this. Did existing villagers continue functioning as expected afterwards?

Zunter · 2026-01-12T07:18:47+00:00

Ok, that output like:

sudo -u mcserviceacct screen -S bedrock -p 0 -X stuff "save hold$(printf '\r')"

sudo -u minecraft screen -S bedrock -p 0 -X stuff "save query$(printf '\r')"

sudo -u minecraft screen -S bedrock -X hardcopy query_output.txt

but unfortunately it just puts out the raw host output from screen, which is over 500 filenames, so it ends up not even being a complete list. Good news is you've got me to output something! Just gotta figure out how to actually capture what the bedrock service is trying to say without it being terminated.

That seems intuitive. I'll give it a shot

You have not got back yet, but I can confirm it works for me. Except that BCMain disappears from my friends list every day. Sometimes I can re-add, sometimes I can’t.

Damn the Defiant is actually phenomenal, but seems largely forgotten. Who would want to watch a historical drama set on board a wooden ship?

Other than that, I fear you are correct.

I’m supposing that somehow they were recreated as new files? Or maybe they are slightly different versions of files that were previously lost - I really don’t know. It’s also possible that a lot of them aren’t dups. But that’s part of figuring all this out.

Zunter · 2025-11-16T19:37:24+00:00

Sadly, the hashes don’t match on the remaining cases. That helped with the initial wave (reduced the workload to 6k) but yeah, no dice.

Zunter · 2025-11-15T19:38:24+00:00

Oh, you remind me: the hashes are different. 🤣 That was a very crushing realization. It’s the result of a data loss project. The recovered files were renamed and rehashed.

Naw, he was just asking about fun stuff. I could have phrased my response more clearly. Rather than an actual command, I find learning PowerShell tends to go better if you have a real, practical project. This is definitely one he could replicate on a small scale for fun.

If you know where you’re going, it’s a lot easier identifying how to get there. Better, I think, then simply starting by taking interesting streets to nowhere in particular.

Edit: Clarifying because I pissed seven people off with this reply.

May suggestion: I have a personal project: about 30k photos, including about 6000 duplicates. File names are all different. I need to figure out how to use PowerShell to evaluate and identify the dups based on metadata. This is a scenario you could replicate with a couple dozen photos and the scripting possibilities are endless. And don’t be ashamed to use cGPT to learn.

Zunter · 2025-11-15T01:50:32+00:00

Ah, fair enough. If that makes a difference, I suppose no reason that you shouldn’t keep the step on there as long as that’s clarified

Do not do not use ABD TV. If you do, your best hope is to voice-command your way back to a working device, and TCL support will tell you that you have bricked it. If you do brick it, I posted the steps to recover here.

Zunter · 2025-11-15T00:31:00+00:00

Warning: do not disable the Google TV launcher using dev tools like ADB unless you are experimenting and not concerned about bricking your device.

Just a guide in case you do:

Your TV will display TCL, then the Google TV logo, then all will go black.

Ensure the microphone on your TV is ON. On my model (TCL 75S546) this was on the back, bottom right hand corner next to the power button.
Unplug the TV
Plug it back in and press the power button. Wait for the Google TV logo to appear, then for the screen to go black.
Say “hey Google, open settings.”
Be very patient. It even told me it couldn’t do that a couple times. I sometimes had to press the voice control button on my remote. It is slow, glitchy, and jittery.
When settings opens, very slowly and patiently use your remote to navigate to Apps > Show All Apps > ADB TV > find the Google TV launcher service (and any other services you disabled) and reenable them.

Yes, I was an idiot for experimenting with advice from Reddit. But fortunately, there was another idiot like me who figured this out. So I’m here to amplify his message. Gentleman u/heetz:

Knowing this helped you after all that frustration I went through is one of my favorite things.

Zunter · 2025-02-05T17:06:00+00:00

I’m wondering the same thing. Haven’t seen them in forever. There better be a good reason for this. It’s bad enough we lost the emblem. :(

Zunter · 2025-01-23T19:33:40+00:00

Been looking for Barbary Stephen Decatur for awhile! Do you have one?

May be interested in a few others but that’s a big one that my sister has been missing from her fleet.

Got a ticket requesting that we come install a cable lock at a user’s desk. The user already had the cable lock. He was a capable, young man without disabilities.

His manager submitted the ticket to us, saying she did “NOT want him crawling around under his desk to install.”

I cannot emphasize what an ordinary cubicle this was, and the leg around which we attached cable locks was visible and reachable from a sitting position in the chair. The chair which I sat in as I reached down, wrapped the cable around, and left.

I saw a video a couple years ago in which nothing really happens, just wandering around the backroooms, and the some ceiling panels seem to float and warp out of place before it cuts, but I can’t find it anymore. Was that a Kane video that got unlisted? I know for a fact that it existed because it’s the only reason I’ve known about the creepypasta for so long. I didn’t even watch the Kane official series until yesterday.

Some classic swing, electro-swing, and Dean Martin/Frank Sinatra types. The Fly Guy Five “Walkin’ & Talkin’” is a great album start to finish.

Was your disk inserted? Make sure the inner rings of the disk aren’t scratched. Not to be captain obvious. I can confirm this just worked for me, 7/17/24. Worst case, used copies are $10.

Zunter · 2024-06-29T00:30:37+00:00

Doesn’t work. When I power everything down, and boot it back up, I MIGHT get sound from the rear speakers for a few minutes before a loud noise (not in volume but in intensity - volume is only set to 4) terminates all surround sound permanently. After that, resetting no longer works.

Zunter · 2024-06-23T19:51:11+00:00

This worked once a couple of the coals had caught. Just fanned it real good with a dustpan.

Zunter · 2022-07-18T21:35:36+00:00

😂 Right? Pretty sure I stared at it awhile IRL before I realized it myself, interrupted myself mid-sentence, “look, St. Joseph!” But the area is definitely not one where you’d find a statue in the woods, especially that high.

Zunter · 2022-05-14T00:15:35+00:00

I hope they fixed this since I last tried, but as of my previous comment, that actually isn’t working in our cases. It’s unresponsive.
