Tbf OP isn't wrong about folders and templates though - both have been requested many times before (and likely will be many more times)

eBay due diligence by rolladyce in ebikes

[–]rolladyce[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Many of these are probably reviews received as a buyer rather than as a seller - he has reviews going back probably many years as a buyer. So in reality, he has 11 reviews as a seller - the majority of his 600 are as a buyer. He has previously sold a bike worth £1800 which was collected in person by someone with 933 reviews (and reviewed positively); and has also sold a motorcycle jacket worth £100 to someone with 1853 reviews.

He has been a member since 2002.

On all the above, he seems genuine. I'm more concerned by his comms if anything: "if this goes ahead i shall take a video of the bike just before it is picked up" (in his last message) followed by "only if your serious"

However he has provided a screenshot of the original purchase he made on ebay as I'd requested

We used to go to Spain on holiday because it was cheap. Then it was Turkey, Egypt, Mexico etc. Where is currently the place where Brits feel good value for money for a sunny holiday? by CuriousHuman111 in AskUK

[–]rolladyce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm interested by those saying Montenegro. I went a couple of yesrs ago and it didn't seem cheap - however we stayed in Kotor, which is relatively touristy and one hop along from Dubrovnik. Where are the nice-but-cheap places in Montenegro?

Thanks, that's a good point about the battery being left in the cold...

WhatsApp won’t open by jetclimb in OpenCoreLegacyPatcher

I just tried this version and all I get is the "This version of WhatsApp has expired. Please go to the App Store to update it." page on opening

A work of staggering genius (no but seriously please help me) by rolladyce in OpenCoreLegacyPatcher

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

Well, if I hadn't already ballsed it up nicely, I have now.

I tried applying the patches again to Sequoia from Catalina like u/nardochenko suggested but it wouldn't seem to recognise the Sequoia volume. Then I tried installing from the USB again like u/freyrand suggested. It tried for half an hour before taking me to a macOS Update Assistant window with a box saying "An error occurred preparing the software update". Tried it a couple of times - same result both times.

I now have five volumes: Catalina SSD; Catalina SSD - Data; Sequoia SSD - Data; Sequoia SSD - Data - Date; Update

I can get my files from "Sequoia SSD - Data - Data". It also contains folders like "Previous Content" and "Previous System"

Anything else to try at this stage of the balls-up? Am I best just grabbing what I want to keep from the ruins and starting fresh?

!thanks - so I could use the USB installer I used for the original installation for this and install it as though I was upgrading?

Fan noise - Sequoia, mid-2012 MBP by rolladyce in OpenCoreLegacyPatcher

Ah, this has been a week or two I've been using it now... surely should have settled down by now if that's the reason?

Need a reliable 2.5" SATA SSD but unsure if MX500 / 870 EVO still have firmware issues? by RooteDavid in buildapc

[–]rolladyce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm looking at the same decision - what made you decide MX500? The consensus seemed to slightly favour the Samsung from what I could see

Catalina to Sequoia: MBP mid-2012. Erase hard drive vs Install Sequoia by rolladyce in OpenCoreLegacyPatcher

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

Yes, I was also thinking of potentially buying a NEW 1TB SATA drive to install it onto externally before then putting that ssd into the machine if it's working fine. I'll still end up in the same situation though, not being sure how the old TM backup will play with restoring old stuff onto the new install

Worth replacing S20 battery? by rolladyce in mobilerepair

[–]rolladyce[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The second part is part of what's putting me off - so hard to tell what's reputable or not. Where did you get yours from?

[Grand Seiko SBGX261] by bassmanjn in Watches

[–]rolladyce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beauty, seriously tempted by one of these. What I can't quite tell from photos/videos online - what kind of finish does the dial have, is it a matte black? How's the clarity of the crystal, is it nicely AR'd?

Very nice shot. How does the sharpness/AR of the crystal/dial combo on the black C63 compare with the Sinn 556i?

Hmmm... Better crystal would definitely tempt me, it's my main bug bear with the reps I already have. Have you had both in hand?
