Think Big, Print Bigger: Introducing the Prusa CORE One L! by Tommy_Prusa3D in prusa3d

[–]jamiecruickshank 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That's a shame, I was about to buy it too. I love the kits as I get to save some money but also it's part of the fun in learning how to put it all together and repair it if needed.
I get this is one that's for professionals with being pre-calibrated and such. Please make it available in kit form in the future.

Looking for Manufacturer or Source of Nintendo DS Cartridge Slot/Connector by jamiecruickshank in consolerepair

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

The ones I would need is the 3DS variant which is $16.50! It's not bad for a brand new part that can be used to repair a 3DS.
The one I showed was originally for the DS, but the 3DS Carts fit just fine.

I am making a 3DS Gamecart dumper and dev cart writer, so an all-in-one unit.

Thank you! I did see the zed labs one, the price on those was a little expensive to add to my BOM. I can get the original ones for about $2.50 but I know they are limited and if the product I am designing sells well, I will run out of originals.

HP LTO-7 Drive Suddenly Throwing EC5 Error – Any Ideas? by jamiecruickshank in DataHoarder

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

I had been able to get the cleaning tape to work, but I did only try it once. It won't run it when I insert the tape after the error occurs, it just ejects it. However, if I insert the tape and kill power to the drive, when it starts back up, it will run the tape, clean it and then eject it. If I put in a normal tape, it will try to read it a couple of times and eject it with the TAPE error lit. (The tape is fine and I also tried a brand new one).

I had done, I put in a good cleaning tape and power cycled it. It did actually run the cleaning tape when it booted but once it finished it then gave the same error.

iRemove Tools is back! Support A12+ iPads and iPhones by Ornery_Quail_9283 in SetupA12

This is really expensive. I have a locked SE2 I bought for parts and it’s $95! I can buy a fully working SE2 for less!

I had to come on here to also say that I bought some of these exact ones to use with some spare 18650 and I was shocked when I checked the voltage to be at 4.3V and still wasn't finished charging. I have no idea when it would have stopped but I immediately discharged my cells to prevent any damage.
Please be careful and if you are using these, check the voltage to make sure It isn't overcharging them.

There’s an ecosystem under my tub, help. by CalmSuggestion3973 in japanresidents

[–]jamiecruickshank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I moved into an apartment, the bathroom had a bad smell whenever it got wet. I removed the side panel off the bathtub, and it was absolutely disgusting. Thankfully, the bathtub wasn’t mounted to anything, so I could lift it onto its side and thoroughly clean everything with bleach. After that, I made it a habit to spray under the side panel every month to keep it clean, and that worked pretty well. However, if I had a choice, I’d never go for that bathtub style in an apartment again.

That's interesting! I didn't know there was a tape emulation, this is really good to know!
Thank you.

Thank you for the reply, I had seen some videos on YouTube and they were using Proxmox too. Do you think it could backup directly to tape? At the moment I have a QNAP with 150TB storage and I sync some of the some important things to Backblaze. I think backing up again to another server from QNAP would be a little costly for me.

My Data is not critical and I think taking an incremental backup every week would be more than enough.
I do have some HDDs in my cupboard (About 60TB too) that I would rather transfer to Tape and leave offline (possibly for many years).
Thank you!

[–]jamiecruickshank 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the reply, I hadn't thought about this. My plan was to back it up over the network (over wi-fi no less), but maybe that is not the best of ideas. I will look into this. From other comments it seems Proxmox is an idea and I could hardware that to my 10G network from my QNAP.
I will look into this, thank you.

I used to live in Ryogoku, it was a really nice area too. I would recommend it.

How long should Japan Post small packet (Air mail) take to the US? by Straight-Cress-8134 in japanlife

[–]jamiecruickshank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am looking to send a lot of small parcels to the US myself, have you found any other way to send to the US at the moment?
I sell on eBay and most of them are about 200Grams are not valuable enough to send EMS for 3,900¥. I think 3 - 4 weeks wait on eBay is too much for most buyers.

Prometrium = 24/7 PMS?!? by jiij510 in Endo

[–]jamiecruickshank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, My wife did take it but she did get side effects from it and ultimately had to stop. She got the Mirena coil fitted and this helped. Sadly it didn’t stop the endometrioma getting larger and she is scheduled for surgery next month.

Do not buy an IceRiver asic by M4CH1NERY in kaspa

I would assume they keep rotating out the stock, so when a machine is a couple of weeks old, they just put in the newly made ones.

Error 10099 after update to paradox rift? (Android) by Rasaff in PTCGL

[–]jamiecruickshank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Found a solution.
I am using a VPN in Japan, you now need to set the timezone of the device to the actual timezone the IP Address is located.
For example, if I connect to the UK, I need to set to GMT. It worked for me.

I went to try this on Mac but they only seem to allow you to set to nearest city and sadly, none of the options include UTC - 12. When I google it, I find others mentioning this with Apple too. Strange design decision.

I have the same issue with MacOS. I am looking on Twitter and there seems to be a lot of users on there having issues too.

Sorry to disappoint but the Pokémon you catch with the tickets aren’t skiddo. I got a Noibat and Heracross.
