The Spanish Fly

For Android: learn the hard reset combo for your phone, especially if you encrypt it.

After rebooting, pattern/PIN will be required to decrypt the phone. Biometrics won’t work for this step. This is what graphene does for security, tries to keep the phone in a “before first unlock” state by rebooting on a timer. You can’t even read anything over USB/ADB, it’s scrambled until you unlock the phone.

The only drawback to just keeping your phone in this state is none of your apps are loaded, so no notifications/updates/processing at all.

Reposting as top level comment also: these are PWDIS drives: if you’re not using them somewhere with sata 3.2/3.3, you need to use an adapter for the power plug, or some tape, to block pins 1-3 (3.3v) as supplying it to these causes them to reset. Might be worth doing the taping anyway, if you’re using an enclosure or cage (where you can’t use the adapters) Just be aware.

2nd catch, behind the power on time: PWDIS drives: if you’re not using them somewhere with sata 3.2/3.3, you need to use an adapter for the power plug, or some tape, to block pins 1-3 (3.3v) as supplying it to these causes them to reset.

The kicker to this sort of thing, is the pirated versions usually have the checks removed… and don’t need internet.

-128 sounds like an error for sure. move your hub closer could help. If you’re sure it’s not a distance/signal issue it’s the hub itself.

can I 3d print PETG objects, use them, put them in the dishwasher, and then safely reuse them?

No.

Replace the extruder. The plastic one will break, and screw up your day. It may already be broken even. Anything is better, even a drop-in metal copy of the existing one. If you want to spend a lil $$ to future-proof yourself, look into a BMG.

Check around your local walmart/target/walgreens etc, that have those photo labs/booths. Some have proper bulk photo scanners publicly available, and will (or you can) pass your photos through one and spit out a CD for fairly cheap (sub-$10 last I checked, but years ago).

AFAIK materialize.is is still active, but you need an invite, and I am not “in”, as it were, though I would like to be.

If I’m reading this right, 80_PA is a keygen, and does not need to run on the target system. If it did, how would an android version be useful?

Install it elsewhere and follow its instructions.

Otherwise, if you’re stuck with this as your only system (do you even phone?), it’s VM time.
