  6. Ahoy Kickstarter experts - I made a rookie mistake in setting up my reward tiers - not offering a local option rewards to eliminate the need to ship for local backers.

    I'm waiting on an answer from Kickstarter, but it looks like if I want to use their Pledge Manager (which would manage all the tax/VAT stuff), I also have to use it for shipping - which means shipping everything, even rewards for local friends, etc.

    Anyone know of any workarounds?

    Is there a simple way to deal with the taxes on my own? I have 60 backers, not all of them have physical (taxable) rewards, most in the US, so not insurmountable if I need to deal with that.

  11. God, I am such a slow guy... I have many projects I wanted to do. But, my brain always looking for distraction after that.

    I have tried Pomodoro method, it is sometime works... but often time, I still prefer distraction over doing something.

    Any suggestion?

  16. Hey #makers what material would you use for this project?

    I want to make a set of lawn poetry, like magnetic fridge poetry but with non-magnetic and bigger pieces to play on the ground outside with friends.

    I want it to be big enough to read off the ground while standing, and light enough to easily bring to picnics. Looking at the magnetic sets, I am guessing I will make 400-500 word tiles (ranging from "a" to e.g., "bedazzled")

  21. Is nerve growth and regenerative medicine a pipedream? I want to do a phalloplasty after my terrible, non-consented, vaginoplasty, ideally in 4-8 years. But since I suffered necrosis on my neoclitoris and the tissue is heavily scared, I don't know what to do.

  36. Dear Fedi friends,

    I'm in a bit of a pickle and I could use your brilliant advice.

    Long story short, I need to wait an extra 24 hours before attempting to set up Jellyfin on my Raspi (waiting for gear to arrive).

    I thought: maybe I could try a low tech / oldie solution first. I have my entire music library super well organized in iTunes (RIP). It's on an old Macbook Pro (2011) connected to an external drive. I can play all the tracks from that computer. I just resurrected my iPhone 6 (capacity: 64GB) to repurpose it as an iPod. My entire music library is 'only" 40GB so the iPhone could hold it all.

    Only problem: iTunes on my Macbook Pro does not recognize the iPhone 6. I keep getting error messages when trying to connect to it. I suspect the firmware is too old (on the Mac / too new on the iPhone)... I could not even wipe the iPhone with that old Mac because it couldn't connect to the Apple servers.

    The iPhone 6 is completely empty and has iTunes! (Not Apple Music but actual iTunes). It even filled with some tracks I had bought (not sure how).

    What would you do in this situation? Are there any workarounds?

    My old Macbook Pro is running iOS version 10.8.5 and iTunes is on version 12.0.1.26.

    My iPhone 6 (wiped clean and re-associated to my Apple ID) is running software version 12.5.7.

    Apple discontinued iTunes support years ago in favor of Apple Music and streaming subscriptions (no wonder, because πŸ’°πŸ’°πŸ’°πŸ’°πŸ’°).

    I wish I could put my entire music library on my iPhone 6, le sigh. I technically wouldn't even need Jellyfin.

    I also have an iPod Touch (1gen) that may connect to my Macbook Pro but its capacity is only 16GB.

    What would you do?

  41. Yall how do I prepare for Grad School? My professors gave me these options: 1. Actually and apply as if nothing is happening (Regarding the fact that im an international student, and the fact that its risky to openly state your political stances online) 2. Score high on GRE, apply to universities and then visit them. 3. Apply for any in the top 20 CS universities. I wish I could talk to someone about the steps required to make this happen. My parents cant help, my advisor won't give me any concrete steps, I'm scared to be very honest. I want to make this happen but I don't know how to proceed :akko_scared: I will be a senior in a semester, which means I only have a semester to figure stuff out. Anything and everything helps! And if there is someone who can guide me throughout the process, I would be extremely grateful! :saddestcat: #AdviceNeeded #GradSchool #GradSchoolAdvice
