While this is frustrating, I do still think the feel of this game is way better than CFB 25. Everything feels a bit less predetermined, especially with passes, pass breakups, etc.

Things just feel a bit more free-flowing.

Hi all! I recently posted here about my 5.5 gen.

I replaced the motherboard (https://eoe.works/products/apple-820-1975-a-motherboard-logic-board-32mb-64mb-for-ipod-video-5-5-enhanced) and also got an iflash solo with a 128 GB Samsung EVO Plus SD Card (https://www.newegg.com/samsung-128gb-microsdxc/p/0DF-000A-00D38).

Every time I go into disk mode and hook up my iPod to my MacBook it seems like it starts to establish a connection since it prompts me with the “do not disconnect” screen. But, then it reboots and hits me with the Apple support screen.

I need some help bringing it back to life but I don’t know what the issue is.

I’ve seen a lot of talk on here about doing a chuck roast, but brisket style. I got a 3 lb chuck roast on sale, so it was time to try it.

Seasoned with ground Dijon mustard as the binder, salt, pepper, and holy gospel seasoning from Meat Church.

Smoked for 7.5 hours at 225 where it stalled between 150-160

Pulled, poured beef tallow on top, and wrapped in butcher paper with some sprits of water on top/around it.

Cranked temp to 300 and then 350 quickly after to finish the cook. Pulled 45 minutes later when it was temping around 190-200.

Rested in the oven for an hour on the “keep warm” setting.

Currently eating some leftovers in breakfast tacos this morning.

Definitely cooking this again!

Was gifted a 5.5 gen from my aunt with 30 GB of storage. Audio wasn’t working unless I pressed down on the bottom right part of the device.

Per suggestions, I swapped out the motherboard and then also upgraded storage to 128 GB using an iflash solo and a Samsung EVO plus SD card.

Don’t know what’s causing this error as everything appears to be in tact on the motherboard and everything seems to be hooked up correctly.

Didn’t know if I need an SD Card swap or something else? Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

For YEARS, I always thought if I got a Gambino inspired tattoo it’d be related to BTI.

But, after seeing the Bando Stone World Tour in Atlanta, I really loved the helmet he wore, the lighting design, and thought a Bando Stone tattoo would be cool.

I really love how abstract this came out while still incorporating all the colors.

Also, the bottom part of the mask (the orange part) glows in the dark with the help of some black light.

I could have done a better job trimming it, but it’ll come with time. That point was thicc and was giving me issues, but it turned out solid. I was surprised the flat didn’t dry out given how quickly it cooked. However, after wrapping it, I tried alternating where my brisket was sitting so the point could really get a majority of the heat.

15 hour total cook time. Seasoned with course black pepper, salt, and The Holy Gospel from Meat Church.

Started smoking around 8:45 PM on the 4th at 200 degrees

Upped the temperature to 250 degrees around 8 AM. Brisket was temping between 160-170, except for the flat (which was nearing 200). Pulled it, covered in beef tallow, wrapped in butcher paper and back on the smoker it went.

Was under a bit of a time constraint and then bumped the temperature up to 300 degrees at 9 AM.

Most everywhere except the point was temping between 195ish to 200ish.

Point was still at 185 degrees, so I upped the temp again to 350 at 10 AM.

Pulled the brisket at 11 AM where the point was temping at 190ish.

Set it on the counter and poured more beef tallow on top.

Rested on the counter for about 45 minutes to 1 hour, then transported to a cooler lined with newspaper both under and on top of the brisket.

Ended up slicing around 1:30 PM

Now I just gotta see if I can dig up a charger from my parent’s basement and see what the battery condition is.
