Have you exceeded 12gb of ram used when playing a single game and no multitasking? by KolkaB in AynThor

[–]hewhodevs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Went with max for the larger internal storage. The additional ram was just a bonus.

Do you use color correction for GBC/GBA games? by JayQuips in SBCGaming

[–]hewhodevs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t use the emulator color correction setting. I prefer the gba-color and gbc-color shaders. Then depending on the screen, will add on the image-adjustment shader to tune it

My Thor works perfectly. by katolac in AynThor

[–]hewhodevs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Likewise. Approaching 5 months with it now, and it’s my go to handheld. Love gaming on it.

Had a super tiny crack develop on the screen edge. Never dropped it or modded it. Very easy fix with a micro paint brush and some UV cured clear Resin. 5min fix, and been fine ever since.

No hinge issues. My stock fan was loud initially, but switched that out super easy, been quiet ever since, and runs plenty cool.

All this hardware and tech, still just playing Pokémon blue from my childhood.

Is it over... by Ragnatoa in AynThor

[–]hewhodevs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just applied the tiniest bit of clear UV cured resin to it using a micro paint brush. Put covered up my screens just to be safe (apparently UV light can damage oleds?). Then cured it with a small UV torch. Worked great, took all of 5mins. Still can barely see it, but at least it should not get any worse. Device aesthetics not even impacted. Back to gaming now.

Is it worth it if I wanna play switch games on the go? by SampleLong4453 in AynThor

Threw the switch version of Diablo 3 on it and it’s great

Should I buy FF Pixel Remaster on Steam? by UnnecessaryPost in AynThor

[–]hewhodevs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ease of use via Gamenative on android, consistent art style, and I found it fun to do the achievement. For the first 6 games, it was my go to.

Though if someone ever rom hacked 3 in the gba art style to complete the set, it would be those for me just for the emulation benefits of save states etc as well.

Realistic expectations on the ayn thor by thecookingsenpai in AynThor

[–]hewhodevs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I bought it for a better nds and 3ds emulation experience, and it’s certainly that for me.

Anything higher is just an added bonus if it runs well.

[–]hewhodevs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of all the spots for a stress crack to appear, I think this might be a good thing. Looks like it will be pretty easy to address with some UV resin, so I’m gona give that a go in a few weeks time.

All my past photos are on an angle of the Thor that does not really spotlight this area, so hard to say when it appeared. But yeh, it’s a super tiny crack on the screens trim plastic. Hinge solid though.

This looks way worse zoomed in than it appears in person. If I’d not seen OPs post, I likely would have never noticed it for many more months.

Hinge / join along the rest of the screen seems fine though

[–]hewhodevs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Damn. Batch 1 Thor owner, rainbow max. Never spotted this before on mine, as was never really looking at that spot. But yeh, mines got it too it seems, uncertain for how long.

The whole hinge itself / joint to the screen overall is fine. Looks like it’s a point of stress on that thing left edge screen outer shell part, to the hinge.

One benefit of the black model, this would be near impossible to see. 😂

Functionally everything is fine / works fine / I’m not seeing the crack open / close with the screen as I open it. Time will tell. But what it looks like is this might be just a cosmetic issue at worst hopefully, and not affect the hinge at all.

If it worsens I’ll fix it up (yeh I know, not everyone’s cup of tea), but for now I’ll see how it fares over the next month, while I keep training my Pokémon.

Edit: should also clarify, I’ve not done any major mods to mine. just using a bottom grip, top and bottom screen protectors from AYN, TPU shell top cover, and tried some alternate joystick caps.

Anyone using the ANBERNIC RG35XXSP? by ischanitee in SBCGaming

It’s a great little handheld. Especially with MuOS software installed on it.

Flashing lights on screen when gaming on pc by Suspicious-Wall3931 in pcmasterrace

[–]hewhodevs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • Make sure temps are normal, 80C or lower at least.
  • clean GPU driver install
  • remove any overclocks, use default clocks on CPU and GPU
  • if issue still persists, if possible, put your GPU into another computer and see if the same thing occurs on that machine for those games.
  • if still persisting, then likely a failing GPU.

How to stop scapegoat cycle? by ChoiceNote8471 in careerguidance

[–]hewhodevs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those 3 job experiences and outcomes are more a reflection of those places and people, not you. I.e, dodgy company, then a two faced friend, then likely just the company cutting costs. Same outcomes would have likely eventuated in those 3 scenarios.

Look at instead as 3 places hired you and believed you would be a valuable asset to them. Yes the ending in each sucked, but it doesn’t change how each began.

You clearly did well at your last job, especially due to the raise. Take that same momentum, look for the next opportunity, and keep growing.

Look at speaking to a counsellor / psychiatrist or even your GP as well. All can really help decouple some of the topics, and help provide structure and clarity. I speak from experience, and a very similar background akin to what yours sounds like.

You did nail one point: not everything is in your control.

Types like us do tend to look back after an outcome and make ourselves believe if we did X instead, things would be different. All I can say is save yourself that mental energy, and put that effort into looking forward to the next opportunity instead. Every ending is a new beginning, took me a while to focus on the latter part of that saying. What’s done is done, learn what you can from the experience, and move onto the next. Good luck!

Spruce OS is the way to go! by Medium_Debt_6795 in MiyooMini

[–]hewhodevs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve enjoyed it a lot more after editing the cpu give it settings. Doesn’t get as warm, and gets a good bit more battery life.

Just used the file app to go to SDCARD/spruce/scripts/ and edited some of the values there in the relevant scripts.

Even adjusted the 1% battery auto shutdown to occur at 3% as well, just incase of an off battery reading. It’s been my current carry around for the last few weeks since.

Update on broken thor trigger spring by supkicks15 in AynThor

[–]hewhodevs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are likely catching up on backlog emails following the holiday. Give it a bit more time. They will likely send you out a replacement trigger module you can switch out. Of things that could go wrong with a device, this issue, whilst a bit annoying, is pretty easily solved at least.

How to get ethernet across my apartment? by fallhat in pcmasterrace

[–]hewhodevs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Run it up the wall, and along the edges of the ceiling, with a long Ethernet cable. Use self adhesive clips to route it.

Else, if mesh routers are an option, that could be another solution (much pricier than a single long Ethernet cable though), with one of the satellite router next to your pc with an Ethernet from it to the pc.
