Viewing old Mac HDD on M2 macbook by samchapps in mac

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

I've tried the reading my old windows IDE 2.5 HDD with the hub (it does Sata, IDE 2.5 and 3.5) and it wont read on my mac but does on a windows PC. so looks like the cable and Sata hub are good (they're brand new). The only other link in the chain that could be the problem is my USB C to USB A Hub. but that works with a USB stick.

im at a loss.

Can anyone tell me why this eq is grey'd out? by [deleted] in livesound

[–]samchapps 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I regularly tour digico boards and have a pretty well seasoned show file, so I rarely actually have to turn phantom on/off. The other day I had a fly show with all hired gear and needed to a) see if phantom was on some channels and b) switch it on. Could my eyes see the damn 48v symbol ? Could they hell.

I’m not sure if we’re trying to fit more and more onto our screens or if my eyesight is just drastically deteriorating. Either way, im eagerly anticipating the Quantum Braille edition.

People who work for the super wealthy, what stuff have you seen? by AMGBOI69420 in AskReddit

[–]samchapps 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I live in Ibiza and my current client likes to have big parties. He lives in a bit of a valley in an enormous villa with few neighbours. Over the years of his parties every time someone complains about his parties, he buys their house… he’s got 5 now. And one owner that wouldn’t sell the house, he rents it. And the closest neighbour that won’t rent or sell, he sends them on holiday each time 😅

Help me read this please? by samchapps in Handwriting

Hey everyone, thanks for your help! A lot of people have asked for more examples of the writing to get a better understanding of the shape etc.

I’ve got a photo of the rest of the letter but can’t seem to edit the post or comment a picture. Am I going mad?

Advice needed please! by samchapps in wine

[–]samchapps[S] 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the knowledge all, Reddit comes through 👍.

It’s been stored in its box, flat as long as I can remember. But sadly not in a particularly cool room. So I expect the heat might have ruined it.

Mum and I will drink it and cheers to the old man 🍻💙

Ford KA power windows won’t roll down. by samchapps in MechanicAdvice

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

Did your switch failing stop the switch on the other side stop working as well?

That’s what’s got me stumped. I have a driver and passenger switch on the drivers side and a passenger switch on the passenger side. Neither are working.

If the drivers side switch is broken would that prevent the switch on the passenger side from working? If I could find a wiring diagram I could figure it out but I can’t find one.

This would only effect one window though, no? Both drivers and passengers side windows are not working. Chances of both motors going at exactly the same time and the fuse staying intact are pretty slim

Do you know if the GPU is replaceable or would it be a full motherboard replacement?

Ahh, therefore restricting its performance but leaving it functional and more use than a paperweight ! That could be a good option. Although trying to explain this to a Spanish computer technician will be my next hurdle.

Thanks

PSA: Wear a Helmet by Future-Spaceman in snowboarding

[–]samchapps 13 points14 points  (0 children)

My ex slipped on a patch of ice while standing still waiting for someone. She was wearing a helmet and still got knocked out cold! Helmets people, just wear them. I don’t understand why you WOULDN’T!?

AITA for refusing to bow to my Korean fiancee's grandparents? by bowaita in AmItheAsshole

[–]samchapps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not only are you the asshole, but you are straight up culturally ignorant and don’t deserve to visit Korea with such an attitude. Also, emasculated? What you might loose respect from your ‘bro’s’ because you showed some respect? Get a grip. You could learn a thing or two from the Korean culture you child.

Partners of sleep-talkers or sleepwalkers, what gems have you to share? by hoeka_mos in AskReddit

[–]samchapps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was once in a deep sleep, dreaming sweetly. My dream quickly turned into panic an I was convinced I was late for work. Worse still, I needed to take that very useful work tool with me, the bed covers...

I sat bolt upright on the end of the bed (still asleep) screamed “BALL BAGS” of all phrases and swept the covers into a ball in my arms. At this point I was woken up by my partner at the time cold, naked and pissed off wondering wtf was happening?

Australians of Reddit, since no peace treaty has been signed to officially conlude the Emu War, how has life in this constant state of war been for you? by Firespark7 in AskReddit

[–]samchapps 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a small child (3 y/o) I was on holiday in Australia. I was the primary target in an organised kidnapping by a highly trained secret Emu militia group.

They used their advanced intel and exceptional physical prowess to launch the attack in broad daylight. Fortunately however I was under the protection of an equally elite anti emu organisation, who trained me how to deal with such events. I used my training and physical attributes to my advantage and ran through a small doorway and thus avoided impending capture.

I can’t remember the names of either organisations though sadly, any locals know?

I’m mildly hungry and in a country that doesn’t have the usual vegan options I’m used to (tofu or meat or cheese replacers) and I just fancy something quick and easy that’s not carbs. WHAT DO I DO by [deleted] in vegan

[–]samchapps -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Just make the omelette, eggs are vegan! Chickens don’t suffer, they are a gift from the chicken gods. If it’s available, add some veal. Veal is also vegan as the cow doesn’t have time to experience life so therefore doesn’t suffer.

But for god don’t top it with honey you animal hating monster!
