You haven't seen the way I write code.

Just thinking the same thing as I had to put my glasses on to read this thread.

Here's a link to the shell: https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256801507870623.html

I used this YouTube video for disassembly: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XoOx3PLH2cU

Definitely breaths new life into it! The original shell was a bit cracked.

Yep just replaced the joysticks.

I got mine from AliExpress and I think they were "no drift" or something like that.~~ About 18$ so maybe they're Hall effect~~? I've had really good luck with joycons until I bought this one from eBay.

I'm not surprised with Nintendo s decision, they're probably saving hall effect and OLED for the switch 2 pro. I'm disappointed with it, but not surprised.

Edit: they were 4$ so definitely not Hall effect. I had a number of items in my order and got confused.

Definitely takes practice. I've done a little microsoldering before but I also practiced moving components around on an old motherboard beforehand. Unless you have absolutely fantastic eyes a microscope is required.

My modded switch lite with new shell and joycons! Got these from aliexpress since the original shell was cracked and the joycons had some dead zones. Whole process took about 3.5 hours (with child interruptions). I had some pics of the soldering but seem to have lost them.

My work computer is Debian and I'm so looking forward to the upgrade. Just gotta contain myself for a free weeks until a 0.1 type update is released.

This is Joe Biden s fault. I don't mean he cut funding or anything like that, I mean he was literally flying the other plane. It was full of woke trans immigrants headed to Texas so Democrats can get more votes while simultaneously rigging the election.

Sleeze is showing off apps... For some reason. Eliya has some problem with using YouTube. Mar thinks eliya has fried her brain watching too much tiktok (a video platform with notoriously short videos) and can't watch YouTube videos because they're "too long"

Hi all,

Currently trying to DeGoogle my phone. I'm down to the last few apps. I want to replace the Phone and Messages apps.

I tried the Fossify versions from FDroid but was met with mixed problems. The first is the phone app. The Fossify version doesn't have Spam call warnings like the Google version. The Fossify version also doesn't have a voicemail button, not really a deal breaker but nice to have.

Second was a bigger problem though, the messages app. At first it seemed to work, but couldn't send pictures after a short time. I usually send picture links anyway so not the worst but kind of annoying. After a while I would start getting delays in receiving standard SMS messages and finally wasn't able to send any messages at all. I switched back to Google messages and everything worked flawlessly immediately. Also I turned off RCS in Google messages prior to switching.

If any of you could recommend a good SMS/Phone app i would appreciate it.

  • QKSMS is unmaintained as are a lot of other SMS apps in the stores.
  • I've got a Pixel 7 with the stock OS, but will be moving to LineageOS soon.
  • I use Signal when I can, but I have clients that I can't simply request they use a whole separate app just for me.
  • Using T-Mobile
 

Interestingly the release notes include this section:

fusee no longer supports applying IPS patches to KIPs.

Followed up by:

The IPS subsystem was originally designed to make nogc patches work for FS, but these are now internal, and it appears the literal only kip patches that exist are for piracy.

Does this indicate Atmosphere is going to become more hostile for any form of piracy?

Not sure if this is the right place.

The last few days I've been experiencing a few issues resolving DNS on my home network. Strangely, rebooting the router seemed to fix it for a time. After running into the issue again I decided to investigate further. I'm using a Mikrotik router with my PC wired in with ethernet cable. The router is using DoH to Quad9 (https://dns.quad9.net/dns-query as per their documentation). I've also imported root certificates for validation.

As of right now, my desktop cannot resolve dns against 9.9.9.9, however it can resolve dns against 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8.

$ dig @9.9.9.9 reddit.com

;; communications error to 9.9.9.9#53: timed out

Interestingly also cannot curl the DoH URL (also a timeout). I thought maybe Quad9 is having issues so I jumped over to my EC2 instance, and I can dig/curl just fine.

I also turned on debug logging on the router, the logs indicate the same issue my desktop is having (timeout errors, sometimes and SSL handshake error).

My question to you all is, have I missed something in my testing/setup, or is Comcast blocking Quad9?

Additional info:

The mikrotik is the latest firmware (6.49.10). I can switch to CloudFlare DoH on the router and it works fine. I can remove the DoH setting entirely and it works. I've got 8.8.8.8 as a static DNS server and the 2 comcast dns servers are dynamic (75.75.75.75 and 75.75.76.76). NTP is setup and the router has the correct date/time/timezone.

As of this writing rebooting the router is no longer temporarily fixing the problem.

Edit:

Thanks u/melmi@lemmy.blahaj.zone !

Per their post the status page shows issues in my area: https://uptime.quad9.net/
