I’m confused how I would have written that as well. Coincidental for sure. I think I did have “modern” in the title initially and didn’t realize editing left it since it’s similar. I dunno.
I speak English and I’m actually old enough to know what modem stands for, unfortunately 😂.
edit: It was autocorrect apparently. It happened again and was almost impossible to detect because of the similarity.
I used BlueProximity for a number of years and it was great.
It eventually became defunct, but that link appears to be a fork to bring it somewhat up to date. I have not tested this new version though since I work from home now.
You can tell that this is just a cash grab, as opposed to a technical or administrative motivation, by the mere fact that Simple/Select Choice plans will be migrated to Magenta, while Magenta plans will be migrated to Go5G. So Magenta isn’t going anywhere for the foreseeable future.
Also, of course, by the fact that you can opt out of the “upgrade.”
I switched to T-Mobile a few years ago and, coming from AT&T, it had been hands-down a positive experience. More features, unlimited data, better customer service, better speeds, all for less than what I was paying AT&T. I even have a line or two that was added for free, no strings attached.
But then there were the many data breaches and the announcement they would add a surcharge for credit card payment. And now this.
Looks like I came on board just in time to witness the enshitification
Have you tried a new nozzle?
If your nozzle is worn flat (from scraping), it could affect your nozzle-bed gap (assuming no adjustment). If the internal diameter is worn (from long-term usage or an abrasive filament), it could cause a type of under-extrusion.
Try putting it in the freezer for a few minutes before trying to read the data. Or heat it up slightly.
This is an old trick I’ve used to recover data from a hard drive or two. I suppose it could help if the problem with the SD is some kind of microscopic fractures.
It should be emphasized that this is just a temporary workaround at best.
My C.H.I.P is still rocking in a special project sitting on my desk.
For those that don’t know, it is like a RPi but smaller, cheaper (originally $9), more I/O, and had WiFi & Bluetooth (whereas the RPi2 of the time didn’t). DIPs (aka hats) were available giving HDMI, VGA, and other capabilities including the PocketCHIP which turned it into a handheld computer by providing a display, button-keyboard, and battery.
While the project is now defunct, kept alive only by the community, there was an attempt to resurrect it in concept and form-factor as the Popcorn Computer on Kickstarter. But that one didn’t fund so, alas, it is now an endangered species.

I did daily drive it for a couple of years sometime around then.
It was so beautiful, yet still performant on basic hardware because it was written relatively low-level iirc. It was like having the flashy UI that they used in movies (anybody remember the 3D filesystem browsers?), but for real and actually usable. And the aesthetics were in contrast to the other major DE of the time which were all kind of drab tbh.
But that was the main use case imo: nice UI for low-end hardware. Once other DE started looking nicer, partly due to leveraging GPUs, the niche nature of Enlightenment became more of a hindrance.
I haven’t looked at it in quite a while and don’t know what their current philosophy or design is but, if it’s still the same, I think it might still be an interesting alternative to XFCE or LXDE for somebody with older hardware that wants to experience a unique UI from a passionate team.
Was the next Dropbox breach due already? I forgot to set a reminder.
