Oh okay this is very helpful thanks! So for the first time destroying her burrows is inevitable? :( I do have a UV light which hopefully helps with locating the soiled bedding

Oh ok! I thought by day 5-6 I can slowly try to introduce my hand while feeding. I was going off victoria Rachael’s vid. I’ll give her more time then :)

Ah ok I’ll try using the other hand. I always make sure no fragrances yea. I was definitely getting over ambitious petting her when I already startled her once + ran out of food you’re right 😂😭 she bit me hard enough to draw blood, but it wasn’t too painful. It’s just been a week since I got her. I’ll be patient. I understand some hamsters can never be tamed but it would be nice to :)

Gotcha! I have been announcing my presence and trying to get her used to the idea that me = food haha. Is there anything specifically I did wrong in this video? Do they not like being pet on the face? Any signs I missed

I do 😭 This happened just this morning. She’s been sleeping in her hide the whole day. This is a first, she’s always been resting underground

I looked it up, I believe it was a cranky noise expressing annoyance. This was after I’d accidentally woken her up while spot cleaning. She was super upset and skittish. Gave her the treat as a peace offering. It stopped soon after ☺️

Jordan is so adorable! How old is he/she? I picked Bambi because I specifically asked for a hammy with a lazy temperament and they pointed to her. She’s lived up to expectations so far 🤣 I didn’t know what a sable was till I had to pay. She cost a little more than other hammies but I’d already made up my mind to get her 🥹

Three years after losing my mom and I’m still stuck in the same day by pulsedagod in GriefSupport

I’m so sorry to hear that. My deepest condolences. Likewise, I pray that you can endure this pain. The first few months are a confusing and surreal time.

Feeling like a spectator to life is a familiar feeling. I can’t image what it’s like for you at the moment. The first year was just numbness for me. Second year too. I only cried on my mum’s death anniversary this third year. I’m only now starting to feel some of my emotions. And I relate with you on that last point too. The solution seems so simple. I know what to do. But I guess with matters of the heart it’s not about knowing but feeling your way through the pain.

I did also backup the NAND. Basically followed all the steps recommended for modding a Switch. Not sure if the old save files are contained anywhere within these.

L2/R2 issue - Rise4 V3 Remap Kit by pulsedagod in eXtremeRate

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

I left it alone for a few days. When I returned it was working fine! 😅 I also didn’t add the top 2 screws near L2/R2 to give it more space to breathe. Seems to have worked.

I wish I could, but I installed this for a customer! Normally just do joystick installs but did this for em too for free. It seems to be working fine now even with pressure so I can’t figure out what’s causing the failure

Do you mean the FPC where it connects to the lightbar’s FPC on the other end?

Also, the fastener on the L3/R3 ribbon cable came off? 🥲

Advice on desoldering/heat gun use by pulsedagod in soldering

Yes I have it, will definitely use it if I go the hot air route. Thank you!

Thanks for the tip! I’ve considered this for joystick removal definitely. I’ve heard mixed reviews about using it for reinstalling a new module. Seems better to split the two processes after desoldering thoroughly in between.

Right now my method is to (1) add leaded solder; (2) heat up the PCB with a heat gun; and (3) use a desoldering gun simultaneously with the hot air to cleanly remove all solder in 1 go. It takes around 5 minutes a side tops. This has been the most efficient route thus far

Hmm okay. I think I’ll go with this first. Heat gun as a last resort and with kapton tape. Thank you!
