Hardware store hobbs nm

Hello everyone,
Unrelated to 'linuxaudio', I recently switched from Windows to Linux and frankly it's been great. I don't favour any distros (yet), but I'm currently using Mint 21.1 because I like the look of it.
As for audio, I've been using Fruity Loops on a Windows machine sporadically for about 8 years. FL worked and it was enough, I suppose, but now that my heart is set on Linux (I never want to go back to windows!) it's not gonna be an option anymore, is it?
I have a Scarlett 6i6 1st gen and I was actually able to use it with my Linux machine, but I think it broke recently. Not long after successfully testing the interface with PulseAudio, I switched to PipeWire completely and haven't been able to use my beloved Scarlett since. I tested it on my old windows machine and while FL detected all the inputs and outputs, it was super super laggy and weird and there was no real signal.
PipeWire, on the other hand, does not detect most inputs and none of the outputs, but the inputs it does detect actually work (mic/instrument on the front).
I went to my local music equipment store and they also think it's probably a hardware malfunction. They let me test my PipeWire setup with a Steinway interface and we were able to find all the I/Os using qpwgraph.
Well, I tend to be a bit hasty, so I bought a new interface (Arturia MiniFuse 4) as it has pretty much the same I/Os as the 6i6 did. I initially ignored the usual installation instructions (for obvious reasons, I hope) and plugged it right in. In the sound settings I found analogue and digital inputs and outputs, but in qpwgraph some line and the midi I/Os are not shown.
This was when I looked at the online instructions and realised that I needed to activate the product to get additional control software and such to use all the features... and of course the software is not available for Linux.
It all kind of demotivated me, but I see three things that I could do from here:
- This comment suggests that by activating the MiniFuse 4 I might be able to install the latest firmware, which might solve my problems. On the other hand, I don't know if I can return it if it doesn't work.
- I could also try to find someone to fix my old interface, but I don't know about that. It's quite old and it might not even work in the end.
- I found out about reverb.com and this list and I could try to get a good deal for one of the interfaces from the list marked 'gold'.
However, I don't feel like making that decision today and this post is already quite long and, most importantly, for all of you who have made it this far, I appreciate your time <3<3<3. Please feel free to comment on anything mentioned in my post, I really feel like I can learn from others no matter the perspective.

Hey guys. So, I've got quite a problem here. Though, as the title indicates, I might have a solution - I just want to know if it's ridiculous.
(Long paragraphs ahead. Tl;dr available)
Tl;dr - I've been given a Macbook Air 2011 (11") and I've wiped the drive. I can boot into internet recovery, but can't install the OS. Startup Disk doesn't detect my installation USB drives, and internet recovery reinstallation only comes up with "Recovery server could not be contacted". If somehow I could install Windows or Linux on this thing, could I install Mac OS through there?
​
Context:
I have recently been given a 2011 Macbook Air (11"). It was all fine and dandy, until the person who had given to me (along with my suggestion) allowed me to 'reset' / reformat the laptop. Coming from windows machines, I thought this would be easy. Plus, I did a bit of searching, and saw that the process of installing MacOS after erasing the original disk would've been easy enough. It WAS easy enough, but the hard part now is that I can't find a way to install MacOS.

• I've tried installing using a bootable USB made through TransMac (I don't have any other mac machines) + a DMG of both High Sierra (the OS that the laptop had before I wiped it), and another time using a DMG of Lion (the OS that the laptop originally had seemed to ship with). But, none of them have come up within the 'startup disk' options, which was weird, because when I went through the terminal to find them using diskutil; the USB that I had plugged in was there and had all the right information. The USB was even detected in disk utility, but it just wasn't being detected on startup disk. I also tried doing 'diskutil mount' to the USB(s), but still, to no avail. Nothing also came up when I booted the Macbook up by pressing the option/alt key trying to get to a screen that's supposed to ask me which disk to boot from. All possible key combinations would only send me into the wifi selection screen before it boots me into internet recovery mode.
• I've also tried internet recovery, both in the mode where it installs High Sierra, and in the mode where it installs Lion; but both of them come up with an error "The recovery server-" 'cannot be reached' (paraphrasing). I heard that this was because both versions of Mac are so outdated that Apple doesn't properly store copies of them on their servers anymore, so one solution was to set the date in terminal, and I've tried all sorts of dates, but none of them have seemed to change the outcome of using internet recovery mode's "Reinstall Mac OS" options.

NOW: I have been wondering if the process of installing Windows 7, 8.1, 10, or even Linux first (I run Pop OS on my main machine, so I have no problem having to fuss around with that if it means I'll be out of this OS-less purgatory) and THEN trying to install a Mac OS installer (somehow) on there and installing it from within Windows / Linux would actually work? Heck, would I even be able to install any OS at all, given that I can't even choose which disk to boot into in startup disk?
Sorry if this was all quite long-winded. I've been at this for a week now with about two browser windows and like 150 tabs, and I've done all the things that I've seen on the internet; save for perhaps taking out the SSD and replacing it or something, if it's been compromised. I've even gone through three different USB Drives to use the install media onto (granted, all using TransMac), some USB 2.0 and some USB 3.0 just to give myself the best of chances. Do note; I have high hopes that I'll still be able to salvage the hardware on this since it's still fully functional. I've just naively flubbed the OS erasure. I just really hope that I could continue to use Mac OS on this thing, or at the very least: any OS. Would be a waste of metal if I couldn't, and wouldn't be nice on my conscience to know that I've done this to the macbook when it was completely functional and working through a High Sierra install just before I wiped the darn disk, haha.
Is this a hopeless situation? Thanks.

Hi all !
I hope to get some answers so I can finally put my mind at ease ( that and the hardware store I order from only opens for a short period on a Sunday ).
I'm looking to tile my own bathroom, fully, and currently I believe it's brick walls, with plaster and then painted. I've been sanding it today after researching, watching videos ect, on what to do, so that the wall is ready for tiles. Let me add that there are some tiles there already , just not a lot.
Is is ok for me to just sand the wall, to get rid of most of the point that is there, and then tile onto it ? I have heard that maybe you should PVA the walls first to prime them, should I do this also ?
The plaster I believe is in pretty good shape, the house I think was built in 1960s / 1980s , incase that's any help but I have no clue when any recent works were done.
Tiles are 60 cm X 30 cm Ceramic, roughly a thickness of 8mm
Thanks ! :)

No luck at the major hardware stores, does anyone stock them?

I went out to the local hardware store - turned out to be a wasted journey because they didn’t have what I needed.. but the idea of going I was instantly panicked, sweating, nauseous- you name it.. it’s UK weather 23/24 degrees too and I struggle more in the heat with anxiety.
I am taking 50mg of sertraline going up to 100mg not really noticing a massive difference yet.. it is so difficult dealing with anxiety, I even have had to get a job working from home. The constant stress and feeling like you’re going to collapse is so difficult to manage.
Even walking the dog nearby my home is hard. It’s like do you ever look at yourself and think what the f*ck this isn’t me..

I have seen a lot of people deciding that they will continue to use their Ledger devices without updating firmware for as long as possible. I think there is still a lot of misinformation and misunderstanding in the seed extraction drama so I will try to clarify those misconceptions and share my perspective below.
The newest Ledger Recovery function is optional and allows you to send out your encrypted seed to 3rd parties for supposed safekeeping. You need to perform KYC and pay a monthly subscription fee for that.
The problem is that a lot of people believed that there is no possibility for the seed to leave the device. That the seed was safely stored in the Secure Element, where it would be used to sign transactions, and signed transactions would be the only thing leaving the SE. The reality turned out to be quite different, and a lot of people got angry as they were misled by the marketing.
Technically, nothing has changed. The "backdoor" to extract your seed might have been present in their closed source firmware since day 1. Basically there are two options.
You either continue to trust Ledger that their firmware is "safe" and does not extract your seed without your consent, in which case you continue to use your Ledger devices with up-to-date firmware;
or you decide that you were misled into false thinking and do not trust Ledger anymore, in which case using your Ledger with outdated firmware does not help, because you cannot be sure if older firmware versions have not already secretly exported your seed, and you need to DYOR and carefully choose a different hardware wallet provider, which means cold wallet or airgapped wallet, because all wallets that connect to a device with Internet connection are technically able to export and send out your seed if the firmware is malicious.
I am not going to tell anyone whether they should continue to use their Ledger devices or choose a different hardware wallet, but I don't see a point in using outdated firmware - this only makes you miss security updates and locks you out from new features.
TLDR: use your Ledger with up-to-date firmware or choose a different wallet altogether, there is no benefit in using outdated software because "the backdoor" could have been there since day 1.

Very weird issue with my s21 that I'm hoping someone can shed some light on. My SIM card stopped working abruptly last weekend. I struggled to get it out to clean it as the SIM card tray was really stuck. I *might* have pushed a paperclip into a few other holes in the process of trying to get the SIM tray out ;-o The Verizon store tried a new SIM, also didn't work so they set up an eSIM, which works fine.
After that, my voice type (speech to text) no longer worked.
I've checked every related thing in Settings and made sure the mic has all the Permissions it needs. I went through all the troubleshooting tips I could find including booting into Safe Mode, doing a Recovery boot and clearing the cache and finally, when all else failed, a factory reset. No luck getting voice type to work. I've also tried installing different keyboards including Gboard.
Here's the bizarre part... If I'm on a phone call and I click the microphone in the google search bar, voice text works! But only while I'm actually connected in a phone call and only with the google search bar - voice text still doesn't work in any other apps.
I thought I might have buggered the secondary mic but it appears the hardware works under one very specific set of conditions.
Thanks for any suggestions!

I have a planer and could use a jointing jig to joint my wood, but is it going to be tedious and poor quality? Also the melamine I’d use is very slightly not flat and the hardware stores don’t sell anything flat.
I’ve just bought a planer after almost a year off from woodworking — I took the time off because I had no square wood and I wasn’t prepared to spend on more tools. Now I am, if I have to. The cheapest jointer in my country that has any reputation is a $600 jointer (400 USD).
Any excessive inconvenience or poor results is likely to lead me to shelving the whole thing for yet another year..

“Your fingerprints and DNA are all over the murder weapons!”
“You think I KILLED people!?! Are you serious??”
“Then how do you explain this” shouted Detective DiSante as he slapped down photo after photo of the grisly murder scenes.
“Victim #1- Giacomo Sorrelli was beheaded with this chainsaw.
Victim #2- Jonathan SanChristian was beaten to death with this shovel.
Victim #3- Dante Cross was beaten to death with this hammer
And Victim #4- has yet to be identified as his hands were cut off with this miter saw. His face obliterated by acid and lime.”
Wesley is shocked into silence, made nauseous by the scenes cruelly laid down before him.
“I…I…I…” he stammers struggling to make sense of the carnage. “I’ve never killed anyone. Never. I’m not a killer! I don’t know these people” he shouts.
“Then WHY are your fingerprints and DNA all over the weapons? Explain THAT!”
“I work in a hardware store! Don’t you know that? Do you know how many tools I touch in a day? How many times I demonstrate to customers EVERY DAY? My fingerprints are all OVER the store! On EVERYTHING I sell!”
Detective DiSante sat back, the realization of what Wesley said suddenly igniting that bulb in his brain. “Oh my God” he thinks to himself. “What if we have a serial killer on our hands?”
DiSante pauses, then speaks. “Do you recognize these tools? Are these items you sell in your store?”
Wesley studies the images, trying to see past the brain tissue, blood and skin left on the weapons.
“Well, yeah, they’re all common brands- any store could sell these. DeWalt chainsaw, Craftsman hammer. Go to any hardware store, you’ll find them.”
“But your store is the only one in town. And it was your store’s receipt for the chainsaw we found crumbled in the grass outside Victim #1s house.”
“Why would I have a receipt for a tool if I work I at the hardware store? I could just take it and write it off as a loss.”
DiSante mulls this over for a minute. “Do you have video surveillance at the store?”
“No.”
“Why not?”
“Because it’s a small town! Everyone knows everyone! What do I need it for?”
“Ok, so if you know everyone, do you know who bought each of these weapons?”
“Are you kidding me? How do you suppose I remember every purchase?”
“Does anything stand out to you? Any of these weapons spark a memory of an odd request or purchase?”
“No.”
“Do you keep sales records? Credit card receipts?”
“Credit card receipts yes, but not if the person pays with cash.”
DiSante sighs heavily and tells Wesley he can go. His only lead obliterated.
——————— Wesley is shaking as he slides behind the wheel of his pickup truck. Drops the keys while trying to find the ignition. Pulls himself together after a moment, enough so he can drive home.
He jumps when the phone rings. He answers without a greeting, knowing full well who it is.
“You did good, Wesley.” The caller hangs up.
What Wesley DIDN’T tell Detective DiSante is that the mystery caller is behind the murders.
Wesley’s job is the perfect cover. The man slips a note into the cash used for a small, forgettable item from the store. Instructions on which tool is needed and a description of the person coming to pick up the item are in the note. The buyer, a different person every time, never touches the tool after Wesley demonstrates how to use it. The buyer leaves, and Wesley is left clueless- until now- of the purpose behind these purchases.
He stops the truck in time to push open the door and vomit on the side of the road. What the hell is he supposed to do?
