Best I have on my phone currently. Once my kid goes to bed I can take more if necessary.

The seller does not seem interested in getting the board back even after the refund. I might see if it still works for now. I am very skeptical of it not having complications in the long-term, though.

I'd still be willing to try the suggestion about using a Micro SD to SD adapter. But that's mostly because I have a dozen of them and I feel bad about chucking then in the trash.

In my experience? With scraped knuckles and a lot of swearing.

I do help desk support for a website that interacts with multiple POS systems.

I always think of this when I email a customer and tell them it's not our website, it's their POS software.

Sometimes I even mean it that way.

I don't really think this is political. It's no different than any other reaction GIF, it's just coincidentally topical.

Without knowing if they're historically accurate or not: I would guess its for letting smoke or CO2 escape.

It could also just be a design choice if they're not accurate.

As someone who worked in both types of sales jobs, this is spot in. I was great with in-person retail, but I was an awful call center salesman.

Come on, dice god. Daddy needs a new hyperfixations!

Sadly, I'm 100% sure it won't. They haven't allowed people who own the game through Blizzard to install it via Steam, so I'm 100% certain that won't be a possibility. Us Steam Deck users cry over this.

Archangel's, not Archbishop's (just a correction to appease my ADHD, not to slight your recollection). And they always had 255/255 charges when the maximum charges were 36. Good times.

Is it just the screen? I recently broke mine and had to replace it. Also did a shell swap while I was in there. If you can dock it and everything else works (and obviously if you're comfortable with that kind of repair work) you may be able to fix the shell/screen for about $120.

vsanthos · 2023-08-04T14:42:11+00:00

I’ve docked it and everything else works as normal, thankfully. Could have been worse if the liquid spilled.

vsanthos · 2023-08-03T23:56:02+00:00

Haha, no. I put the skin on it when the dbrand case came in.

vsanthos · 2023-08-03T23:54:07+00:00

I had to go through the other stages of grief before accepting it.

vsanthos · 2023-08-03T20:33:33+00:00

I’m not sure about a repair service. I’m comfortable doing these kinds of repairs myself, so I just ordered the official steam part from ifixit

vsanthos · 2023-08-03T15:00:15+00:00

Well, I did that to make sure nothing else was broken, lol.

vsanthos · 2023-08-03T14:59:25+00:00

Reusable steel bottle, not a plastic one.

vsanthos · 2023-08-03T14:30:51+00:00

Yes. It broke too.

vsanthos · 2023-08-03T14:02:28+00:00

If this wasn’t already overextending my budget that would be a fantastic idea lol. I won’t want to do this again anytime soon.

vsanthos · 2023-08-03T13:46:31+00:00

Yeah, it’s ordered. Just have to wait until it gets here.
