Recently, our old Xbox 360 had issues with the disc drive constantly opening after closing and sometimes not even opening without unnecessary force on the drive. I was able to find a guide on how to take apart my Xbox on iFixit. Unfortunately, when I was taking apart the Xbox, a piece snapped off as…
Repairing my iPad Screen
Recently my iPad (5th gen) was dropped, and it had many cracks on its screen. After about a week of the glass being broken, I looked it up to see if I could order a replacement part to fix it and if it would be worth the price of a claim and the time to…
Shipstation Connect on Linux (workaround)
For a while now, my mother has owned an online business, and she uses a service called ship station. Shipstation allows an easy way to ship orders. The way we have it set up is a Dymo scale and a Rollo label printer hooked up to a computer that has Shipstation’s software called shipstation connect….
Learning Javascript Basics
Recently I found a YouTuber by the name of “Bro Code” who has published many short coding tutorials on his channel, but the ones that caught my attention was his pretty long videos teaching the basics of different coding languages including HTM (Yes I know HTML isn’t a programming language,) C, and Java. The main…
Silencing my 3D printer and Installing BL-Touch
Recently I found out that I can upgrade my 3D printer (an Ender-3) so that I won’t have to hear that annoying beeping during printing. This is especially a problem for me because I have the printer right outside my bedroom door, and it can get really annoying and loud during the day and night….
Octoprint Cura Plugin
Recently I found that Cura (a 3D slicer program) can support OctoPrint, only with an added plugin that I can install with the plugins tab. Before this plugin, I could not use Octoprint with Cura because it wasn’t on Cura’s supported list of network printers when using their “MONITOR” tab. How does this plugin help…
Learning Blender | Day 2
Today I’ve decided not to make a donut but instead design something different and learn what I need to make that project work. I will continue watching the video series for helpful tips I might need in the future. Because the Donut Guru “learning blender series” is still beneficial even if I’m not creating the…
Learning Blender | Day 1
I just started learning Blender. My goal for a blender is to create more detailed 3D models either for a 3D render or for my 3D Prints when I can’t make it in the 3D builder or other more straightforward programs. At first, Blender is highly confusing because I’m used to other 3D programs being…
Using 3D Builder to Make Custom Keyboard Keycaps
Recently I got back into 3d printing, and after I set up OctoPi with my Ender-3, the first thing I printed was keycaps for one of the specific characters from a video game called Valorant. Keycaps are the keys that you press on when you type on a mechanical keyboard (click here for a better…
Block YouTube Ads on TV
I hate advertisements especially on YouTube when they are playing on the TV especially when they are now “unskippable” and I have to watch them for fifteen seconds without being able to skip them. Even skippable ads are also annoying because if you just put down the remote to play that long 10-hour ambiance you…
