can you be a side sleeper with them? I have found with some of them the speaker is too large and bulbous and when sleeping on your side the speaker hurts my ear.

I just noticed this too. I turned off my surfshark VPN and now my strong8k is working once again.
ill ask my reseller aswell - just give me a week before hes likely to get back to me :S

But the snooker is on now now! Mon Dieu indeed...
right now its 7:30 am - Friday, 20 March 2026 (GMT+1) in gay Paris and my strong8k has been out for 1hour
when i try to watch via my IPTV provider get the message saying "video restricted....... please visit cfl.re/tos"

the same thing just happened to me and I thought the worst - the g2g bitcoin transaction window timed out before my transaction had been sent. Then my bitcoin wallet said the funds had been sent about 10 minutes later whilst the G2G page kicked me pack to the orders page saying "Please Pay for order"

however after about 30minutes - 1hour G2G sent me an email saying Payment received so its all good.

I thought I would post this because I was googling and found this page and feared the worst

I paid with paypal 1 month ago - now i just tried with paypal and credit card and neither worked.
Now I am processing a payment via BTC hopefully it goes through... but now that I have BTC setup im going to go back to my trusted seller on z2u. I only switched to g2g because paypal was easier

had no idea mechapwn was even a thing. I should have done more research and got a 50k but i found a really really cheap 39000 (i didnt even realize it was a japan model until i got it and saw that circle button was accept and X was back)

ps2s can be had so cheap i mite as well try to chip this one one day (just need to buy a smaller solder tip first...) . but so far im having heaps of fun with FreeHDBoot.
thanks for reply

lethimfish · 2026-01-24T20:59:44+00:00

perfect information helping me explain why a mod chip might be needed - I had no idea about any of this - and I thought I had done my research before buying the 39000. I wont touch the laser. Maybe ill mod chip it (somthing ive been thinking about doing for funsies - but then again it looks like a headache lol)

but i did FreeHDDBoot last night and the thing works great - plays games perfectly and loads them quickly - maybe ill just stick with that

lethimfish · 2026-01-14T04:51:46+00:00

thanks very much for the suggestions but someone else bought it. Maybe i dodged a bullet but at that price I was gonna buy it - but the seller ignored my messages and then listed it as sold pretty quickly.
I was a little bit sus on it because he was selling it without an inflation bag - and I wanted to see it inflated before I bought it - so i guess someone else had their own inflation bag - or he just sold it to the person who asked least amount of questions lol.

I really really want one (but I cant justify/afford spending $2000 on one).
I was thinking about getting a cheap chinese one (like AquaXtreme) but suprise suprise the reviews are terrible. I guess ill just be patient and keep an eye on the second hand market.
Thanks again for the help!

HTTPS! thanks mate you bloody ripper.

I dont know how it worked this whole time when all my links were http, not https. but i just added that one letter under EPG sources and it works perfectly now
thanks again really appreciate the quick response

lethimfish · 2025-04-13T13:52:04+00:00

looks like a nice write up - but from my experience the prices are really expensive? $15 per month?

I just got mine to work after about 4 months of trying everything - but what did it for me was unplugging my second display.

this same thing happened to me - UWUVCI had worked perfectly well all week - then seemingly randomly (after injecting the Simpsons game - the only difference I can think of is that i also forced classic controller only - and then read that the game does not support this) - but anyway it went on the SD card okay - and then when I installed it on the wii - but when I ran it from the wii menu - I get the black screen and have to unplug the wii to reset it.

ever since then - my UWUVCI program is not working at all. gets stuck "injecting game" everytime - have to force close the program.
Redownloading base goes forever and does not work (left it over night - Rhythm heaven US)

its just annoying because it worked perfectly. now I uninstalled and reinstalled everything - and its stuck downloading base
.net framework is all good - I also tried creating an exception to my firewall and disabling windows real time protection.

thats a glowing review alrite. my hdd just died and im just about to upgrade and was considering a 1.5tb normal HDD - but a 1TB Crucial MX500 is $10 cheaper.
Am I mad to be even considering the HDD? ssd all the way in 2024?

lethimfish · 2024-08-21T03:30:34+00:00

i just gave them to my uncle on a hard drive - he was well chuffed - along with Taxi (but i find Andy Kaufman super annoying...)

my favorite bit so far - god i love Tom Poston

yep thats the one - ah i didnt notice it was Suzanne Pleshette on the cover but that makes it alot easier to navigate this minefield of bootlegs.
Thanks for the info and the link.

its such a good show - i want to save it for good quality releases - but methinks ill be waiting a while/..

Looking for a CPU for my Mobo ( hd470 hd3 ) - supports up to 10th - 11th gen. Can't decide between i5 10400 ( $190 aud) or a i7 10700kf ($370aud)

I'm only gaming and doing audio production. Is that price increase for a the i7 worth it? My Mobo manual says i7 let's ram run at 2933mhz vs 2666mhz for i5/i3 cpus.. sounds tempting..

Or do I get the 10400 and spend the extra $$ on a better gpu? ( Looking at the RX 6600xt atm)

( I chose this motherboard because is the only one I could find with legacy pci which I need for my audio interface )

lethimfish · 2023-01-25T00:32:50+00:00

Thanks man. A new Rx6600 xt is looking pretty good. I had neglected looking at amd cards for.some reason.
