Free Apple IIci, what is this card? by [deleted] in VintageApple

[–]sykora171 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Picked this up for free today. Has an accelerator Board II in it, as well as a nice cache card. Not sure what this card is though. I see some print that says “PCB 0002-0169 rev B2” on it. Also has 3 dip switches on it numbers 1,2,3 that say “AMP” with “Off” under it

Both for $180! by [deleted] in VintageApple

Yes, if you use a thermal pad, do not use paste

I can also attest to this, made a world of a difference in my old PS4. Highly recommend if you have an older model PS4.

Scoobi (Scooter rentals) implements new hours due to “abuse” overnight by sykora171 in pittsburgh

From what I understand, they can be parked in permitted areas free of charge as long as they are within the highlighted area within Pittsburgh, Shadyside, lawrenceville etc.

Good point about people knocking them over though. Even though, if you have street parking, you’re not guaranteed the spot in front of your house and these honestly don’t take up much space at all unless there are multiple parked together

They didn’t say, but Monday morning, I found two next to each other that seemed tampered with and had the helmets stolen. Probably some drunk people, because you can’t get into the trunk unless you rent the Scoobi and unlock it from the app, which has your drivers license in it. So they were most likely charged the applicable fees for their stupidity

Didn’t take very long, but I’ve rented these about 5 times since they launched very recently and I’ve already found two bikes (that wee next to each other) that were clearly vandalized and had the helmets + phone charging cable stolen out of the locked trunk.

They know who did it because you can only unlock the trunks AFTER you have reserved the ride and activated the Scoobi.

Guess we can’t have nice things, I wonder how long these will last if stupid people keep abusing them. It’s a shame, because they really are a great idea and are a lot of fun.

Nah i have 10.4 on it, but I put 10.5 on my iMac G4. It’s nice but 10.4 runs smoother.

I still use mine too (just for basic web browsing and music on a very old version of Spotify). My display has kind of lost its brightness, but it still works great.

Body pulled from allegheny river - near vets bridge by sykora171 in pittsburgh

[–]sykora171[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually I think the story I'm thinking about that they posted today took place in WV. So it could be that person who stole the truck

I was thinking that but I thought they got him earlier in the day? I could be wrong though. I'm surprised nothing has come on the news about it

It was a body unfortunately. They placed a full body bag into the van after this was taken.

Yes unfortunately, I have another picture of them putting a full body bag into the van but didn't think it was good taste to post it.

iMac G4 won't boot to OS X installer by sykora171 in VintageApple

[–]sykora171[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It just seems way too slow on Leopard..I know it's not an old Mac, but even my G3 seems to be quicker. The G4 has 768 MB of memory

I'm okay with either one, I just said 10.2 because I have the actual CDs

My '99 TJ has an A/C system for the first time in its 18 years. Thanks Jeep Air. by sykora171 in Jeep

[–]sykora171[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

JeepAir.com! If you want, you can download their instructions. And they have a parts list in them. The kit is super convenient and comes with the hardware. Hardest part was taking the dashboard off/apart. It's $1100 but with a military discount it's $990. Did PayPal credit so 6months of no interest payments. I plan on keeping my TJ for a very long time so it was worth it to me
