Thanks for the offer, I’ve been in contact with someone in this thread and they helped me out with it already. Very generous of both you and them. Thank you!

Will do lol.

I don’t think there is a local Discord community for my area, but I can search around. I can check out Nextdoor, I forgot about that site! Thank you!

I checked the library today, no such service unfortunately. However, I could get my husband to go on Facebook and post something there. Thank you!

Ah I didn’t know that about the file! That’s good to know, I just remember seeing files before that said something about metric vs imperial, but maybe I am mixing up something else.

Would it be alright if I message you about the part? I really appreciate the offer.

That’s a fair point. I’m a fair shoot off Indiana, unfortunately. There appears to be someone else in this post that wants to help! If that doesn’t work out I will ask my husband to get on Facebook and post on one of those forums there. Thank you. (=

Unfortunately a 3D printer is not in my budget. I could afford one, but it would come at the expense of some upcoming costs I have to account for. Maybe in the future when I have a better living situation it would happen! I have always wanted one. It would be fun to mess around with.

It looks like ABS was the recommended material on the forum that the part was posted on. Here is the forum it was posted on and here is the Thingiverse page for it. It would be the “modified” file, out of the two listed. I am not sure about how the specifications work, like measurements, but it would be meant to fit a 6.5" car speaker if that makes sense. I know just about nothing about 3D printers.

Added to the post, located in the US.

A local individual is a good idea, unfortunately I live in a very rural farmland area, not many “local nerds” to speak of. But I could do some traveling.

#ok

There are purposes for it, but with the power it would use for basic tasks, I think it is better recycled.

Windows Vista → Debian (pre-systemD) → Devuan → Void Linux.

I don’t like systemD.

I still have Windows installed as a dual boot setup for Adobe CC.

That’s one of the most insane links I have ever seen. I’m scared to click it.

But I second a ThinkPad.

So this is what my coworker was talking about? Wtf.

You did fine, as a new user I am surprised that you even attempted to get to the console and so on.

With forcefully powering off, the biggest (or I guess most likely) thing that could happen is losing data. As long as your install wasn’t working on updates or major system configuration changes, you’ll probably be fine in that regard; it would boot back up just fine.

GG.

Works on LineageOS 21.

Check your keyboard layout. Perhaps add whatever language keyboard you are looking to use the characters from? In my case, I couldn’t find a Welsh keyboard but the UK English keyboard has keystrokes for characters like ŵ. That could potentially be an option.

Worth a quick check. Things can be DOA.

Debian I think? Probably Debian Wheezy.

Edit: All thanks to my college professor.

I worry about it inflating. “Spicy pillow” or whatever.
