welp there goes Eggman in his flying battery. and here I am literally living for this great glitch where you go into FPS segments but you can't just copy my toots and call them your own >:|

Welp I decided to give drawing on my Surface Pro with Krita a try! Here's a handy guide to getting the most out of your new pen and tablet with this amazing program! Courtesy of me!
(severe pooptoot warning. i cannot draw. at all D: )

@LANthus tired; big tiddy goth gf
wired: big bullet curtain youkai gf

@Felthry welp at least I'm definitely forewarned about this now so I know what to look for. thank you ^^;

@Felthry ...woah that's.... huh. actually really helpful to know as well. and surprisingly simple. niiice. :D so these old Class 4 rating ones are 4MB/s? I take it the really old non class rated Micro SD cards will be effectively Class 1 so 1MB/s maximum?

@Felthry I literally own no SDXC cards yet. ^^; I knew they existed, but never saw one, but thanks for explaining the speed ratings, because now if I ever get one, I know what to look for :D Which is super helpful

@theoutrider well okay that's not wholly true you'll be able to fit a fair bit on a 1gb sd card and maybe a couple small programs but... yeah. even a 4gb sd card is like "wow that's not a lot of room" these days.

@theoutrider right? 1gb is like

it's weird to think about but a 1gb storage device is like being handed a 3.5" floppy disk and being asked to copy DOOM 2016 onto it.

Me: "Ah well I best put these micro sd cards awa-WHOOP" *immediately drops one of the micro sd cards*
micro sd card: lol imma hide
plastic mat on floor: lol no ur not *loud clattering noise*
micro sd card: :< *open view*
me: *can't see shit apparently* the fuck did it go?
mat: !?! >:O
sd card: !?!? :D

Also dang hunting around for a different SD card reader netted me a 4gb and a 16gb class 4 micro sdhc cards. my 8gb is class 10, which I assume means it's the fastest one I own.

the 1 and 2gb microsds tho don't have a class rating. so... probably slow as heck.

Nonetheless, more micro sds = more good, right?

To be fair this crappy little reader came free with one of the old M3 cards for my ds lite, so...

...yeeaaah it probably was due to fail in some fashion.

It is pretty crappy tbh. Oh well. I'll just grab a new one at some point in the near future.

@soft_chomps@glitch.social Yyyeep. Actually did all of these. Windows literally cannot see the SD card reader. And it's definitely the reader. the cards were all working jsust fine until the reader itself lost connection or failed during the format. Now it won't read ANY cards, and windows just says "usb device not recognised", so diskpart only sees my harddrive and its partitions.

Nope. It's the actual reader itself that's fucked. No SD card is recognised in it at all. Holy crap.

...welp used the sd card formatter tool to try and wipe this sd card...

and it disconnected somehow halfway through, so the format failed. and now windows doesn't recognise the SD card at all so if it's plugged into the reader, it doesn't detect it at all.

meaning I can't format it hahahaUHFSHasjfAHSFAS

On the upside I now have a 1gb and 2gb microsd card (older ones tho, so they're probably p. slow and very crap quality) that I can use for anything I like now.

...heck if this r4i 3ds clone is totally buggered I can at least use the 8gb SDHC card in it for data storage too. it's a pretty good one at least.

Welp, tossing the crapped out old cards. keeping the R4i just in case there's a way to make it work again (doubt it). Might try an older firmware or something.

As for the R4 Rev, (also def a clone) it also doesn't read the card and I think it might also have had a spring catch because the sd card sits... very low in its slot... The DS lite just doesn't read the M3 or R4 as existing, and the R4i 3ds's firmware on the sd card is apparently fucked I guess. Shame. Ah well.

Not sure what caused this because the R4i was definitely working, I was playing Cooking Mama 3 on my DS lite. Then suddenly just... whomp. White screen forever. :<

The R4i 3DS just white screens on booting up so... I have no idea what's up with THAT one. yow.

the otyher one I have is actually an R4 Revolution for DS. not another R4i 3ds, forgot I sold that one (mercifully it worked).
