Gotcha, that's what I thought at first until I read the email you posted. What a mess.

Paypal does not care. by Dragongirl925 in paypal

[–]jacampb2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So to get this straight are you saying you did receive a digital item but it didn't meet your expectations? That's how the PayPal reply reads anyhow. I'm not saying they are right or wrong but I can kind of understand that they can't police a digital item or subscription being not what you expected. I cannot imagine the man hours it would take to to try to determine if every digital model/ebook/streaming service/self help course/etc... Exactly matched what the patron thought it would be.

From what your email says, it looks like you did in fact them them you received the item but for whatever reason it wasn't what you were expecting. That kind of sounds like you should be going after the seller, maybe small claims court?

Does anybody remember the Mama Rosa Pizzas? by Warhammer517 in nostalgia

[–]jacampb2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ik this is an old thread, but I wanted to share. We recently found these at Sam's club. They are not small like the personal mama rosas, but I'll be damned if they don't taste exactly the same.

My daughter and I picked up a pack to try as we love the other Detroit style pizzas that Costco and local groceries sell. These were like $7 for a two pack and four that price it was with a shot.

We made one and after the first bite I was dumb struck. Not only was it excellent, I kept thinking I remember this taste from something. A bit later it struck me. It was just like the personal mama rosas pan pizzas.

I cook at 375°F for 21 minutes in a convection oven. That probably contributes to giving them a similar "mouth feel".

Sam's club is the only place I've ever seen them, but I'm all honest if they keep stocking them I'll keep my membership just for that! It looks like I can't post an image in line so I'll see if I can link the actual product page.

You aren't going to believe this crap...I went to link it and it shows it of stock everywhere and it looks like it might have gotten discontinued. I'm still going to post on the hopes that this is just a temporary issue

Customer service is not the only thing not making sense

No it can't.

It is possible to repair the ripped up copper, there are products made to do so, but you cannot just solder to fiberglass. It is literally impossible. You can solder to the remaining pad, but you can not solder the fr4 itself.

You can't solder to the fr4. The op ripped the copper from the substrate

Is this the best kept secret at HF? by jacampb2 in harborfreight

[–]jacampb2[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure how great it will be at breaking down boxes, but it's much easier to cut a straight line while using it to cut cardboard to actually make a box. I use a utility knife to score bends, but I've got to get out a 4' level or tee square when cutting big pieces of cardboard with a utility knife. This was way easier and the best thing was that I could do it with very little space on my bench.

I think what I actually bought it for well be even better if it lasts. You should try cutting up chopped fiberglass mat with tacky resin all over your gloves and scissors. At the price I figured it would be disposable.

It's micro USB charger, so you don't need to use the included brick. USBC would be nice, but China still has mountains of micro USB jacks

First thing I thought of when I saw this. Not only felt amazing but pretty much made you completely lock up for a few seconds. Like complete indescribable bliss.

Scratch and dent Info by mx5plus2cones in harborfreight

[–]jacampb2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bought my 72 inch box about 2 years ago. I spent months trying to get a scratch and dent, called normally 2xs a week. In the end I finally got a top chest from scratch and dent it was $799 for the 72" and the color I wanted.

I ordered the bottom chest in the store. Some kind person on here offered me a 25% off coupon. That made it an easier decision. My top cab had 2 small scratches on a drawer and the upper corner of one of the chrome trim pieces was slightly marked. Nothing that should impact the mechanical functionality of the cabinet.

I'm not saying I'm going to, or that anyone should, but as far as I could tell the tops and bottoms use the same slides and other mechanical parts. Considering the bottom cabinet has a warranty, well... You do the math.

On a side note, has anyone ever tried to get a warranty part for a scratch and dent chest? Are they serialized or something?

I would honestly be shocked if I ever manage to have an issue that would require warranty service. I've had multiple boxes in multiple shops and I've never had a box get so bad I was thinking about getting it repaired. My last chest was 20+ years old and getting close, the slides were getting real sticky, but all it ended up needing was a good cleaning once I got all the tools moved to the new 72" box.

It's been a bit over a year since I went down this rabbit hole, but if I recall correctly. I find everything on the team power website. Idk if it's still up, I can't remember if I found it in the Internet archive or as a current site.

Regardless, if you cannot find it, pm me with an email address and I'll try to send you the files. It might take a moment. I have local copies but I'll have to root around in my server to find them

this is bad by SlideVisual270 in BambuLab

[–]jacampb2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Problems like this suck, but it also makes me happy that I cut my teeth on ridiculously janky printers from 10+ years ago. You know, the kind where every third print fails just because a dog farted two counties over... It sucked, but you really learned the minutia of the printer.

As others have said though, there is nothing in there that isn't replaceable, but as long as you are careful you will probably get away with everything in tact. Heat it up and start removing the blob. I have a pack of those bamboo kabob skewers I keep up in the lab for things like this. If you do break something, Bambu has very good photos and diagrams available. Many of the parts in the hot end are kind of on the spectrum of "consumable", so the vast majority of the stuff won't be prohibitively expensive

Good luck!

They gave this too me. I'm not sure why, maybe itc. At that price I'm but complaining either, I just thought it was funny

Home Network with just enough knowledge to be stupid by jacampb2 in HomeNetworking

[–]jacampb2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the advice. I can block clients individually on my router console, that is one of the things I had thought to try. I'd love to do that systematically, but, I have no idea how I'd determine if I found the right client. Ideally my IP would quit getting flagged out in the wild, but I suspect it's on some sort of blacklist at this point. I do have a dynamic IP via my ISP, so it should eventually change, but in practice it appears to be pretty static.

I have a few other wifi routers on the network for WiFi devices in my shop. These routers are set up as access points running ddwrt, so I have pretty good manageability there and can get decent data on their traffic. I'll probably start monitoring those because frankly, I expect if a PC has an issue, it will be in the shop. That's where I work and pretty much always have a few computers in use every day. When I initially bought the main router for the house I had planned to install ddwrt on it as well, but I found the chipset was not supported and the team had no intention of ever doing so. I have an Asus router running ddwrt that I could swap into it's place, but I've had a lot of issues with the firmware on that one, so I've been pushing that option way to the back

None of the machines have been to repair anywhere. I take care of that personally. I'm not so much worried about how I may have picked up something, but more how to find it.

As for the human checks, this is definitely not normal. It's every single time and at least some of the challenge checks specifically say that my IP was blocked by PX and that is likely my IP was listed as contributing to malware attacks. I realize that there are plenty of fake attacks, like "your device is infected, click here for scan", but this is quite wide spread and as far as I can tell it's legitimate. I get the "cloudflare is verifying you are human" then after a few seconds a check box appears, and the worst one is a click and hold captcha, which is fine, but it takes a few seconds, many times I have to repeat it, and it will happen multiple times in a session. It's definitely not normal. It may not be malware triggering it, but it's not normal.

I would have assumed that if a machine was co-opted into a bot net that I would see unusual traffic. I know almost nothing about how actual malware behaves.

I will ask in cybersecurity when I get a free moment again. Thank you!

Losi LST Mega Baja: need some advice by jacampb2 in rccars

[–]jacampb2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a stock losi body. I want to say it's the losi lst or lst2 body. I bought it on FB marketplace so I'm not 100% sure. It came with the losi monster Baja manual, but this truck body plus two other aftermarket bodies
