I've been trying to fix up a pair of iPod Shuffles (both 2nd gen) all day now and after searching through forums I've decided to shout to tumblr for any help with apple product garbage. I am trying to restore them so I can charge and play music on them. Here's the scenario, under the cut.

The two iPods (from now on referred to as Green and Blue) both have the green-orange-orange or green-orange-green-orange blinking lights when powered on and you click the play button. I have attempted to follow the steps to restore them through iTunes multiple times. Green is able to be detected as an (E:) device on my laptop and blinks orange while on the charging port, so it can hold a charge. I can go through the files, and at the start of the day I cleared out the audio files that were on it- very funny to see what 11 year old me was listening too. From here I've attempted to restore on iTunes, ejected it, and tried to play a file I put on it into F00. I still get the green-orange-orange blinking. From here I've done research and used FAT32 in attempt to reset the files, as a replacement for the 32-bit iPod cleaner Apple had supplied when this issue first arose. I then restored through iTunes. Everything in the files looks Fine. I've tried setting Green to disc mode, and still it flashes the restore sequence lights.

Blue is more difficult and an iPod I didn't own myself, so I don't know its history (it was given to me with the charging cable from a family friend). With Blue, it similarly flashes the green-orange-orange light when powered on. I believe it can hold a charge, but I'm not 100% certain. When on the port, it briefly blinks a yellow light before stopping, or no light appears at all. While the port is plugged into a port to charge it, it stays yellow. The device isn't detected on my laptop either, so I'm unable to run a restore or FAT32 on it.

I swear I have gone through what feels like every forum and apple support page so tumblrs my last cry on this mini project. I should've just worked on cleaning the oxidization on my wii remotes instead..

So excited to see Ult Dirk and Tavvy meet / interact because I desperately want him to try to befriend Tavvy just so he can date his dad and watch as he accidentally gets attached to him in the process

so i just pulled off a mildly impressive achievement?

see, around 12:30 AM (so like 3 minutes ago as i’m writing this) my friend’s little brother comes knocking on my door. at first i assume it’s like the house making noises or something but when he knocks again i assume something is actually happening, so i open the door and head over to his room.

apparently his steamdeck’s charger—or at least the cable he was using to charge his steamdeck—had suddenly broken. the main metal charging bit had somehow snapped kind of in half, and part of it was wedged into the steamdeck and he couldn’t yank it out.

here’s an after pic so you can see the state of the charger:

the metal part was the part inside the charger, and the cable was already outside. he has no idea how it broke off. he only noticed it was charging only in one direction a day before this happened, and sometime today it broke.

so we both take turns trying to yank it out of the steamdeck. the little prongs next to the wire bits kept biting our fingers, so we couldn’t pull it out with brute strength.

i suggested using something like those clamp clip things with a loopy metal part (the fuck are those things called anyway); he looked in his drawer, but couldn’t find anything like it. he did, however, have a few rope-like cables, so hooked them to the prongs that were hurting our fingers to try pulling the stuck part out. it didn’t work, so i went downstairs to see if i could find the clamp clip thing.

i also couldn’t find it, but i found a stapler remover and a nail clipper, and thought, “oh yeah, one of these might work!” so i went back up. my friend’s brother tried the stapler remover, and i tried the nail clipper. lo and behold, the nail clipper worked! the metal part was out!

now i’m writing this relaying the tale to the interwebs because my friend’s brother said i should. so if you enjoyed this story, thank him :D

Making a level 0 Lancer character just to try it out and I wanted to make a kinda support character, so I ended up with a playstyle that does stuff like using Lock On to support allies, and also placing drones and using tech attacks. When it came time to pick my weapons, I realized I probably won't actually be shooting them too often, so weapons that require reloading won't have that much of a downside.

And that's how my support character ended up wielding a pair of Missile Racks and a Superheavy Cyclone Pulse Rifle.
