Bought a Refurbished pixel10 pro, unlocked but it isn't. - Lemmy.World

Finally decided to give GrapheneOS a try as I’ve got a fp6 with /e/os and love it. Found an eBay listing for one in very good condition, and right in the subject it says unlocked. Got it yesterday, excited to try it. Start following the install instructions, only to see OEM unlock grayed out. One article says, it must be connected to the internet, so I connect it to wifi. Still grayed out. Another article says install all the updates and reboot. Two hours later, still grayed out. I’ve measaged the seller asking for a refund, but I don’t know. Anyone else have an idea? bootloader [https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/acdc8a23-bbaf-4d9d-90b4-cdcc02b14ee7.jpeg]

Any wallet apps that work?

Any wallet apps that work? - Lemmy.World

My local transit only uses Google wallet for tap to pay, but I’ve got about 90% of my stuff out of Google. Paypal used to install as a wallet but doesn’t seem to do tap to pay. And since the latest /e/os update, can’t even select it anymore. I’m not in the EU so can’t use wero. Any other options I haven’t found maybe?

Shower and laundry services now operating at Street Roots - Lemmy.World

Hygiene services offered to vendors who sell the paper [https://www.streetroots.org/news/2025/12/24/shower-and-laundry-services-now-operating-street-roots] “It makes me feel human.” That was a recurring sentiment expressed on a rainy afternoon by Street Roots vendors emerging fresh from a shower and wearing clothes they just washed in the building’s laundry room. The basement floor houses Street Roots’ new shower and laundry facilities, offering appointments for showers and a wash and dry laundry service. For vendor Lore Wilson, using the facilities offered some reprieve from the experience of living outside. “It restores a massive amount of personal dignity, self-esteem and confidence to have a shower and clean clothes,” Wilson said. “Having my basic needs so considerately cared for, with so much kindness and compassion — to have my humanity recognized in such a way — is a good reminder that I am not less than.”

Has anyone sold or otherwise handed off their 3d printing business?

Has anyone sold or otherwise handed off their 3d printing business? - Lemmy.World

I think I’m done, hit my mental energy limit. I have a very small 3d design company, where I started by taking small projects, making the design and then selling it on either Etsy or Artisans coop. I’d also attend local craft fairs, or makers markets. I’ve had a lot of fun and satisfaction doing this, solved some cool problems for people and made a small amount of money. (Mostly just paid for the printers) But, the last three craft fairs I’ve attended I sold literally nothing at one, and only a few dollars at the others, Etsy sales have dried up and Artisans coop never got off the ground for me. I know I need to market, but I’ve been doing it without Meta/deadbird etc which is so tough. So I think I’m done and just want a way out. If anyone either has advice on how to sell this company (its an LLC) or if you are even interested in buying it, maybe DM me. I’ve got tons if filament, a pair of nice printers, probably a few dozen 3d designs plus a bunch of replacement parts for the printers. PrusaXL2T and Vivedino Troodon300 heavily modded.

Are there any Steam games like Gran Turismo?

Are there any Steam games like Gran Turismo? - Lemmy.World

I mean that has licensed tracks and cars that you can modify in stupid fun ways? The last time I played Gran Tuismo was on a PS3 and I played it so much. I have purchased a few games over the years, Project cars 1-3, Asetto corsa, Forza Horizon, The Crew 2… all of them were interesting in some ways, but I just miss grabbing a boring car and modding it to stupid power levels and racing it at Laguna seca for example.

What to do with too many raspberries and strawberries? - Lemmy.World

We planted both raspberries and strawberries over the last few years and are getting so many we can’t eat them all. We give them away, but is there something better we can do with them?
