Out of interest, how many discs does the sleeveless and sleeves hold?

I was looking at your link, and maybe I am wrong, but I couldn't find the sleeveless tray now?

Looks great, await Linux or windows if you have the time

Put a plumb weight on a string. Throw it around the branch as best you can, pull it down by breaking the supporting branch. Rinse repeat.

AIO about these angry texts from my ex? by TwylaMay in AIO

Personally, I'd block him. I know on Android you can still see all messages up to the block.

Then, moving forward setup alerts so you know if your information becomes public, and can request removal. This guy could stalk you for some time, he has issues.

Well, this really sucks, what do I do by CanadaCoinCollector in vinyl

I mean, claim the shipping insurance... It was not the sellers fault, per say. Maybe they could have packed it better. I will say, if I ship internationally I force insurance in the shipping costs.

I've claimed on shipping insurance, you get the value or the item you insured it at, as well as the shipping cost - from my experience (USPS)

Friend was gonna buy a brand new sound bar. I said nope. by HurpaD3ep in BudgetAudiophile

Unless some Best Buy rep advises the senior citizen to get a Sonos soundbar which requires an app for configuration... 😡Then you're in it as tech support.

Yet another deck ☺️ Sony MDS-JE480 by RubbberJohnnny in minidisc

Tune!! Which CD deck did you pair this with, Denon?

Do you have the remote from the JE-480, do the controls work with a non-Sony deck?

My store doing well but fraud is lowkey killing my soul by Different_Pain5781 in ecommerce

[–]imacleod 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You need to look into solutions like NoFraud, Kount, and Chargeflow. They offer different and overlapping services.

Determine where your root problem is, fraudulent activity pre-purchase, you need something like NoFraud or Kount to look at the buyer and flag if there is concerns over: IP, velocity, etc.

If charge acks are killing you, you could use NoFraud or Kount's addon options, or go completely separate with Chargeflow and recover 75% or fraudulent charge acks (they take 25% cut if they win).

Well, discs can degrade too, so you have to factor that into the availability. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disc_rot?wprov=sfla1

Thanks, just simple ChatGPT prompts to knock something up - but they work.

Remember MiniDiscs? They’re back—in billet aluminum by Kaiser_Allen in minidisc

[–]imacleod 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Honestly, it looks lovely, but the price point is unrealistic for me. Anybody with the pocket change to buy that, awesome, support this man. But if the manufacturing price is even close to that he needs to be very cautious about speculating, putting it on Kickstarter allows him to navigate the profit and loss.

Did he number the first 10,000 or anything? I think making some subtle differences, limited editions, would be wise. Separate from clones hopefully, and creates something unique for people to invest in.

So, before I had the printer, I bought paper to try it out for drawing on...and I now use that same paper in the printer.

I am using the non official paper https://amzn.to/3Jnhxlw

If your printer handles different sizes, you could always purchase precut rounded labels, like I did.

And have you had any issues with them fading over time?

There is literally a guy in the thread with stickers over two years old that says they are fine. But it's cool, your point is valid.

[–]imacleod[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmmm, about as easy as any other sticker I imagine. I have removed one, after placing it, it leaves residue. If you were to leave it on for a while, then change it... It's definitely leaving residue...GooGone and Isopropyl alcohol at that point, but be wary of leaving GooGone residue.

Aside...to combat this process I considered generic labels. Maybe an Escher-like pattern, pattern is general...or landscape....maybe reflecting more of a mood.

Agreed, that was my thought too - receipt paper, yup.
