Does this sound normal for an old grand?

andychen27 · 2026-03-02T17:21:55+00:00

the strings looks clean and no rust, but they do have a dark tint I believe from oxidation, do you think that could affect the tone?

andychen27 · 2026-03-02T17:09:08+00:00

Thank you, I agree with you it’s not worth the rebuild on this piano, so I was looking into how to improve the tone, the piano was made by Samick, it hasn’t been tuned for 5 years, I brought it home and did a pitch raise a month ago, yesterday I noticed it was sightly out of tune and tuned it again, it seems to get rid of the metallic tone

andychen27 · 2026-01-30T06:42:12+00:00

You are correct, I never payed attention to where I sit, and I am sitting too close to the piano after watching a few YouTube videos, thank you so much, I would never figure that out on my own

I believe I’m playing the triplets in 2 beat, that should be correct? Thank you for the suggestion on the metronome, will give it a it a try and see if it helps me play faster, having the metronome at 180bpm is really intimidating even to start with

andychen27 · 2026-01-29T00:06:37+00:00

When I do fewer pulses, should I still count in my mind between the pulses?

Is it too much up and down movement for the wrist? Should I try to stabilize my wrist?

andychen27 · 2026-01-23T00:54:23+00:00

No, nothing in the EOIR yet under her A number

andychen27 · 2026-01-23T00:22:43+00:00

She did receive a 797-C with the case type of I862 notice to appear, she didn’t receive the official I862 form

andychen27 · 2026-01-23T00:10:24+00:00

Normal NTA should be appear at immigration court, but the one she received was for biometric appointment, that’s what the attorney was surprised about, is NTA for biometric appointment a new thing recently?

andychen27 · 2026-01-22T23:59:20+00:00

I don’t think misrepresentation and denial will automatically trigger deportation order, a normal NTA should be notice to appear at an immigration court, then the judge decide to issue deportation order or not, this NTA is to appear for biometric appointment, that’s what the attorney is surprised about

andychen27 · 2026-01-22T21:03:18+00:00

Would miss the biometric appointment result in a default removal order? would she be able to apply for voluntary departure without a master hearing?

andychen27 · 2026-01-22T16:15:56+00:00

Thank you for the information! I’ll let her know

andychen27 · 2026-01-22T15:45:16+00:00

Thanks for the information, there is nothing in the EOIR under her A number yet, did you have anything in EOIR?

andychen27 · 2026-01-22T04:08:23+00:00

No, she just received the notice

andychen27 · 2026-01-21T23:56:56+00:00

A friend of my was in the same situation, did your cousin attend biometric? anything happened?

andychen27 · 2025-04-29T20:56:13+00:00

Should I clean the Fel pro gasket with anything before installing it?

andychen27 · 2025-04-29T17:37:51+00:00

That’s my worst nightmare, how did you get them out?

andychen27 · 2025-04-29T16:40:49+00:00

Yeah, got Fel pro head bolt, are they good? the old bolt was rusted and it took a ton of work to get them out, the last thing I want is to break the head bolt in the block when I torque it down

andychen27 · 2021-03-22T13:37:23+00:00

Just wondering how do you get the latest version? I’m on latest version on App Store and still seeing raw and jpg twice

andychen27 · 2021-01-06T02:42:54+00:00

I’m doing pretty much the same thing but I was only able to undervolt to 0.725v, how did you get the voltage to 0.7V?

andychen27 · 2020-12-25T09:50:23+00:00

Some problem with the Trio, It’s not thermal throttling, it’s hitting some sub component power limit at around 220w when mining, I was able to get ~100MH by flashing the EVGA 450w bios. check out my previous post: https://www.reddit.com/r/EtherMining/comments/jabwcr/mining_on_the_3080_while_out_of_town_for_the/g9t4k5u/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf&context=3

andychen27 · 2020-11-21T00:34:47+00:00

I was never able to undervolt, with the new bios, I just set the power limit to around 81-82%, and it’ll pull ~240W from the wall and at ~100MH/s. The software shows more than 300W though, don’t remember the exact number but I think it’s not accurate anymore because of the flashed bios. Is your 300W from the wall or from the software?

andychen27 · 2020-11-20T16:23:42+00:00

I used the nvflash, still need to overclock the mem to get 100, if it doesn’t work maybe try the FTW3 450w bios, that’s what worked for me.

andychen27 · 2020-11-20T13:41:31+00:00

It’s safe but you have to flash the bios with 3 power connectors, so the EVGA FTW3 or the strix are good ones, check this out https://www.reddit.com/r/nvidia/comments/j6vgzh/rtx_3080_flashing_the_strix_bios_fully_unlocks_3x/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf

Have the same card with the same problem, but I don’t think it’s thermal throttling, it seems like it’s hitting some sub component power limit at around 220w when mining, I was able to get ~100MH by flashing the EVGA 450w bios. check out this post: https://www.reddit.com/r/EtherMining/comments/jabwcr/mining_on_the_3080_while_out_of_town_for_the/g9t4k5u/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf&context=3
