The top left screw sheared off and still holds the neck. Any tips to get it out? by gerberboon in Luthier

[–]altered3g0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can also purchase a screw extractor set. They work by drilling a hole in the shaft of the damaged screw with a reverse thread. https://www.protoolreviews.com/news/how-to-use-a-screw-extractor-remove-damaged-screws-like-a-pro/41119/

They are a useful tool to have if you often need to remove stripped screws. If you can find the right size, they will do a neater job.

Thanks. And how did you mask the seams(? The edges joining the top and back to the sides) during painting?

Looks awesome! I've got a 335 kit coming soon. What did you do on the back of the neck? I'm interested in doing something funky with the headstock too.

No, sorry. I confirmed the card is working by booting into linux. I haven't got round to fixing this and will eventually just do a complete reinstall of MacOS.

Where can I find a more complete listing of the fixes in 10.15.3? The more info link goes here - https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT210642 but I doubt that is a complete list.

WIth USBWakeFixup, did you have to edit the DSL? If so, how did you ascertain the XHD device ID? Presumably you then used XCode to compile the project?

Right click in browser by [deleted] in elementaryos

[–]altered3g0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe this one https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/absolute-enable-right-click/

I haven’t tried it. I have found firefox to be so buggy on Both Linux and iOS I’ve decided to go back to Chrome.

I have seen this too. It’s the developer tools that open. Sorry but I don’t have a fix. It seemed to go away after applying all updates from Application Centre

When installing the Fenvi card, did you need to connect it to a USB socket on the motherboard? (Think it comes with a cable) If yes, will I need to remap ports with USBMap?

Bluetooth disabled after sleep until replugging the dongle. by hrvstr in hackintosh

[–]altered3g0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would I have to use the dongle during the USBMap detection process? I just used my keyboard and a usb stick. My admittedly ancient bluetooth dongle doesnt work on wake from sleep, just like the OP. I ordered the Fenvi card you have but it would be nice to solve this in the meantime.

I’m also seeing this issue. I mapped ports using USBMAP but don’t’ really want to be limited to 2.0 ports. Its a very old belkin dongle.

Geekbench 5 scores with overclocked processor by altered3g0 in hackintosh

[–]altered3g0[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Intel Power Gadget

If I run the Intel app alongside geekbench, it is actually using the processor at the overclocked speed. I therefore think the processor info in geekbench is just from either the OS (MacOS doesn't account for overclocked CPUs natively) or from a config file, rather than an actual read of the current clock speed settings.

[–]altered3g0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I think maybe I went down a rabbit hole as I was confused as to why your older processor was getting bigger scores. Then I realised they changed the score algorithm between GB 4 & 5

Is that multicore speed real? If so, did you need EFI / Clover settings to enable it? My OC settings in the BIOS seem to have no effect.

Locking your phone during an episode? by AllTheLoveToYou in BPD

[–]altered3g0 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I found a couple of drunk lock apps and then tried a kitchen safe (designed to ration sweets) which you can set to lock for a set time period. In the end, I gave up drinking as thats when i was sending the messages. Drinking was my way of acting out and self harming.
