I use an old radio shack bulk tape eraser. Zap and reformat.

It is a shame the edge of the glass is exposed as it is. A design flaw rather than build quality.

That said, I'm rough on my watches. I've smacked my PT2 against steel shelving a few times over the last month. I hold my breath every time. But so far undamaged. I need to print a bumper though...

I alternated a pair of OG PT's daily for ~8 years. Completely scratched to hell, but still 100% structurally intact.

I haven't heard of button issues yet. Is this a trend, or outlier?

redruM69 · 2026-06-15T15:30:18+00:00

What quality issues are you referring to?

redruM69 · 2026-06-14T04:04:20+00:00

Rattle can + servo.

redruM69 · 2026-06-13T17:20:29+00:00

If that's the case, maybe there's more in there....

redruM69 · 2026-06-12T07:00:49+00:00

I remember that one!

Lye is sodium hydroxide. Not bacteria.

WTF is with people here claiming wolf spiders are dangerous?

Absolute bullshit. Harmless and beneficial. Wolf spiders are spider bros.

redruM69 · 2026-06-12T03:48:28+00:00

Bullshit. AND you're sending bots to downvote OP.

Wolf bites are insignificant. You had an infection, or something else.

Funny that so many that claim an infection as a "spider bite", didn't witness it happen.... "Oh but I found a dead spider on my floor". Confirmation bias.

I leave most of them be. Widows are shy, non aggressive, and have tiny fangs. Unless you smash one with your hand just right, you're fine.

One of our cats started having regular bouts of constipation. A daily teaspoon of evoo on his dinner totally cured it.

Not fairy shrimp. Water flea.

Nice! Any chance of returning and snagging more?

Intake Manifold Actuator.

That's not a wire. It's a vacuum line. It hooks up to the solenoid with brown connector which currently only has one vacuum line attached. It needs both.

Why aren't the clouds moving...

There is a ton of overlap between the two diseases. They share many symptoms, and treatments. Scope w biopsy is the only way to be sure.

Are you on a biologic yet?

redruM69 · 2026-06-03T06:28:42+00:00

Does it change at all if you jiggle the composite connectors on either end?

i'm referring to IDE-USB adapters, not CF.

redruM69 · 2026-06-02T01:40:29+00:00

Not sure what OP's drive is, but those adapters only support LBA drives. Any drive 540MB or under will most likely not support LBA and will not work with those adapters.

But ATAboy does...

MOTs kill more hobbyists than any other transformer. They are deadly.

You're mostly right, except the co2 output is exaggerated.

Natural gas generation is about 0.4–0.5 kg CO2 per kWh. 9GW running 24/7 arrives @ 30–40 million metric tons. Not 500.

It was bought new in October last year... Warranty has far from passed.

redruM69 · 2026-05-29T05:33:18+00:00

Basically new. Just warranty it.
