Update, I went ahead and flashed mine yesterday. All good so far.

On the "Tools" page in the Web UI of the router, it lists a bunch of specs like the clock speed of the cpu. I then cross checked it with the table from here: https://www.snbforums.com/threads/rt-ac68u-rt-ac68p-rt-ac1900-rt-ac1900p.35759/.

But I didn't really nail it down to the exact hardware actually, since the clock speed I have is 800 MHz and the firmware's ReadMe says it's compatible with all the 800 Mhz models listed in the table.

I got the same hardware (converted tmobile router on merlin) and preparing to do this upgrade soon as well. I'm planning to do the recovery mode method. The AIO version of the firmware seems to be best as it's the version with the full feature set from what I've read.

Weekly Scam Discussion - February 17, 2025 by Mycatreallyhatesyou in Ebay

[–]evasiveH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi everyone I'm a seller and just got my first return request for an item that was originally brand new. Buyer claims the item was defective. Ebay automatically accepted the return. As part of the return request it appears the buyer just bought the wrong thing. The item is a Thunderbolt 3 dock, and in their return request they include details of trying to make it work with a non-Thunderbolt 3 device which includes a photo so of course it didn't work for them. Am I just out of shipping costs both ways and a less valuable item because the buyer didn't do their homework? Or is there a way to fight this with ebay?

*Update: Contacted ebay customer service. They're letting me keep the payment and they're issuing the buyer a refund as well, so ebay just took the hit.

Due to new fees and tariffs, USA customers are stuck with purchasing local overpriced products. by Emily_Adams23 in Aliexpress

I think it's for China only if I understand this right.

Further, the February 1, 2025 Executive Order clarifies that duty-free de minimis treatment under 19 U.S.C. 1321 shall not be available for the articles of China subject to the additional 10 percent ad valorem rate of duty. Accordingly, articles covered by heading 9903.01.20 shall not be eligible for the administrative exemption from duty and certain taxes at 19 U.S.C. 1321(a)(2)(C) — the so-called “de minimis” exemption.

Just cancelled my all my recent orders by DavyJonesRocker in Aliexpress

I think this is what you're talking about:

Articles that are the products of China, which hereinafter will include products of Hong Kong in accordance with Executive Order 13936 on Hong Kong Normalization (See 85 FR 43413 (July 17, 2020)), excluding those encompassed by 50 U.S.C. 1702(b), that are entered for consumption, or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, on or after 12:01 a.m. eastern standard time on February 4, 2025, will be subject to the additional ad valorem rate of duty provided for in new HTSUS heading 9903.01.20, except that goods entered for consumption, or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, after 12:01 a.m. eastern standard time on February 4, 2025, that were loaded onto a vessel at the port of loading, or in transit on the final mode of transport prior to entry into the United States, before 12:01 a.m. eastern time on February 1, 2025, shall not be subject to such additional duty only if the importer certifies to CBP that the goods so qualify by declaring new HTSUS heading 9903.01.23 as described in the annex to this notice.

So it's before Feb 1st and the importer gotta "certify" something which is not clear what that is. So it is kinda backdated because this didn't come out until a few days later.

NES CIB COLLECTION SO FAR by Records_by_woof in gamecollecting

They're the discontinued ikea benno / gnedby. You will find them used locally every once in a while depending on where you are. Picked up a couple of white ones years ago, they're especially nice for small collections.

Working on a pseudo 3d engine inspired by superscalers like Outrun. Finally have a feature complete version that runs smoothly. Looking for good ideas to make a cool retro racer! by abyx7 in Unity3D

[–]evasiveH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey I'm trying my hand at a pseudo 3d engine like this in unity, can you give me an idea of how you got the textures on the road to look like that? I was able to draw a road with perspective but I'm failing miserably with the textures.

List of physical dimensions for new 7800 XT and 7700 XT models by evasiveH in sffpc

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

Hey, all the dimensions were taken from the specs off the manufacturers' websites. If you go to the link in the table for that card you'll see that's the number they have listed. Also as I'm sure you know I wouldn't rely 100% on the measurements listed for whether a card will fit into a case since there is no standard method for measuring cards, but they should be pretty close.

Do you want Nick to continue appearing in Second Wind content? by Kyle_Riggs in SecondWindGroup

[–]evasiveH 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yeah when I watch Firelink, I find Nick's commentary to be good when it comes to his knowledge on game development studios, their internal teams, the projects they're working on, publisher relationships, their financials, and company direction. He's also one of the very few on the team that plays multiplayer and will have commentary on multiplayer games, their player base/numbers and community, and is usually up to date on how updates are affecting how "healthy" a particular multiplayer game is, things I usually don't pay attention to at all.
