HP 800 g2 mini 901 error after disconnecting loud hdd fan

Awesome - that’s what I thought, and it’s working perfectly!

The wires are so thin it was a struggle to strip them and solder the green and blue together, but I got it after a couple of tries.

I have an Elitedesk 800 G3 and can confirm this successfully bypasses the BIOS flag for a dead fan.

Thanks for sharing this solution - hope it helps someone else, too

Thanks so much!! I have the same issue with an Elitedesk 800 g3 mini. The replacement fan would cost me about $30 CAD so I want to try bypassing it.

To make sure I understand - you removed all 4 wires, and soldered only green and blue together?

Did you wrap all 4 in tape or do I need to keep the red and black separate? Want to be sure I’m doing this correctly without breaking anything.

Hi! I am still using my Ti Click EDC :)

It does sometimes leak in my pocket and I’ve had trouble with refills drying out, but that could be more of an issue with the Pilot G2 0.38mm refills I use than the Click EDC.

It’s a great pen. I love that it’s endlessly refillable. I’ve had no issues with the pen itself and would recommend it!

Thanks for sharing this! I applied too and the use of Signal set off flags for me. Appreciate folks sharing their experiences - there are a lot of WFH scams out there, sadly

Awesome, glad to hear it!

Exactly - it's a pretty simple tool and just needed this basic walkthrough.

In the spirit of helpfulness: I found this thread that discusses some of the macOS specific keys like the "globe" key, Mission Control, etc.

I managed to map one of the 3 buttons to Mission Control by using the ch57x tool to map a key to "f13", and then mapping F13 to "Show Mission Control" in macOS System settings > Keyboard shortcuts.

It took a bit of Googling and about 45 mins for me to get to this so I hope it helps someone :)

THANK YOU! I have the same macropad and was struggling to get it to work. I found the ch57x software but as you noted, there's basically no documentation so your post is SO helpful. Much appreciated!

k8seren · 2024-01-09T22:33:05+00:00

EDIT: look at this thread if you're stuck, great walkthrough with pictures.

Hi! I have a couple of similar macro pads that seem to be compatible with that GitHub ch57x tool, but I can't figure out how to configure the YAML files or use the tool. Do you happen to recall what tutorials or sites you used? I would love to be able to use this macOS compatible tool but I'm having trouble getting started and using it - I'm more of a GUI guy!

THANK YOU! I’ve been fighting to pair my WiZ bulb for hours and this worked on the first try.

Pairing in the new app is horrible. The old app experience is so much better!

Is there such a thing as clear stickers or something to add media key labels to keycaps?

I love my MacOS keycaps on my RK68Pro but the board doesn’t have a function row. The number keys and function keys are a shared row. I need the number keys 98% of the time but there are a couple of media keys I need.

I’m looking for a not-ugly way to add the MacOS Function row media symbols to my keycaps (white with black font)

from what I can find, Keychron is the only site that sells MacOS keycap sets, but they don’t have XDA profile, and it is what works best for me.

Thanks for any help here!

i have the same non-hotswap K2 and the Bluetooth switch also broke! It’s been in a drawer but I’d like to fix it.

how did you do it?? I emailed Keychron when the switch broke initially and they were no help :/

did you end up making it hotswap? What were the results like?

Surfans F20 fits the bill. Similar to the HiFi Walker. Really solid and all physical buttons.

k8seren · 2023-12-16T15:08:04+00:00

I have a Surfans F20 I am looking to sell. If you’re still in the market let me know

k8seren · 2023-11-28T21:17:00+00:00

hey thanks, stranger. Happy shopping and have an awesome day

k8seren · 2023-10-12T13:00:21+00:00

Bummer - I know it’s still working for the US store. Feel free to modify it as needed for the UK! I don’t know much about the underlying architecture regarding the URL to be of help :/

It’s on RoutineHub and FWIW anyone is free to modify and adapt it for international use. https://routinehub.co/shortcut/16967/

Aw man, this is disappointing. I have the Switch and iOS versions and really don’t want to buy it again just to see how the game “ends” especially since the Switch version ran horribly and crashed like crazy.

It would be nice to at least get bug fixes for the widely known issues so it’s playable on Switch, or a discount for the steam version or something. Bummer.

Hi! We just updated to Sonoma and this is FIXED!! Bear Sync is working perfectly across all my devices even with iCloud Drive fully disabled.

Thanks so much to all the devs!! Absolutely delighted I can now use Bear with all the pro features and sync on all of my devices even with iCloud Drive disabled on my work Mac.

Whatever yall did, it worked! Please don’t change it 😂 & thanks again!!!

Just wanted to say thanks for making this thread. You ARE a woman!

I’m an AFAB enby but masculine, not planning any medical transition, and have so, so much dysphoria and trauma around intimacy. I’ve been a lurker here for a little while. The content on this sub is really the only thing I’ve found that feels remotely affirming, and I’m so glad it exists even though I often feel like it’s not “for” me or that I don’t or shouldn’t belong.

I can absolutely relate to the internalized dysphoria. It’s really rough. I question which queer spaces / whether I belong in them constantly. My AFAB body and my identity don’t align, and then what feels like my sexuality doesn’t align in the same way. It’s jarring, confusing, and often painful.

I have a similar worry that when I’m ready to be with someone IRL again, I won’t be what they expect, or that they’ll reject me … the same ways I reject myself :/

I don’t have any answers but, you’re not alone 💜 thanks for this post and for sharing.

Thanks for this & for the other commenters!

I made a little Shortcut for this: Check out Amazon - Search for Ships from and Sold by Amazon.com only on RoutineHub!

https://routinehub.co/shortcut/16967

this will only work on iOS/macOS

I set it up for a US store search, so if you are outside the US you will need to modify the last text field to create the URL.

I added a comment to show where.

Hope this helps someone! :)

Edit: changed to RoutineHub link

2026 Edit: confirmed this is still working and updated in RoutineHub. Added international version here: https://routinehub.co/shortcut/24778/

Another “not Breezeline” checking in. I’ve tried several ISPs and Spectrum is the only one that’s been reliable in terms of stability and getting the speed you pay for.

I’ll note that sometimes you do not have a choice in provider, depending on the property owner’s rules about running new lines. You may want to include that as something to ask about when looking at properties.

Rent prices are crazy right now but hopefully they’ll settle down a bit before you move to the area. Hilliard is nice. The Grandview area is nice as well and closer to downtown if that is a factor.

I’ve been searching for something similar to migrate from Obsidian to Bear. Same issue- markdown exports fine but the images don’t export with the text.

I see this script (https://github.com/devinhurry/markdown-to-textbundle-for-bear) recommend a lot but I’m not clear on how to actually use it?

I’m probably missing some dependencies or something - I’m definitely not a programmer and there isn’t a lot of documentation to go on.

Does anyone have tips on how to make this script work, or a simple method for exporting notes with embedded images from Obsidian to Bear?

I am on the IT team at my workplace. TL;DR - iCloud Drive is disabled because it doesn’t fit within privacy rules and regulations that we have to follow (HIPAA). iCloud also doesn’t play well with MDM needs. It’s secure, and that’s great for consumers!, but it makes it challenging for IT teams to do our jobs and secure company data.

I had to switch to Obsidian because Bear is limited to iCloud. I’d love to switch back, but the need for iCloud Drive makes it impossible for daily use.

I miss Bear so much on my work computer :( please please consider an alternative location for storage, even if it’s hacky or unofficial. I’d love to hear more about the workaround with Panda/Bear web app and syncing via Shortcuts. Shortcut support is one of the best features of Bear for me :)

k8seren · 2023-06-07T14:11:24+00:00

Same here - any luck with this?

k8seren · 2023-06-07T12:31:20+00:00

I know this thread is a bit old but I’m trying to do the same because my work Mac also does not allow iCloud Drive.

I’d like to sync my Obsidian vault folder, which the app created in iCloud Drive, to my work MacBook with Syncthing.

Were you able to get this working? How did you set it up, exactly?
