Ok so a few days ago, I was attempting to download a cia to both of my original 3DS consoles and when I inserted the last SD card into my PC, I was told to format it. And that point I put it back into the 3DS and tried to boot it and the DS couldn't read it. I remembered I had backup sd with the original cfw files and that was corrupted too! I tried to restore the files, but none of it worked. I managed to recover some custom themes I made and didn't upload and was able to find the names of folder that worked with the cfw, but that was it. No matter how many times I update GM9 or Luma, NOTHING WORKS. The boot commends for Luma, GM9, and Rosalina don't work. I tried to remove the cfw, but flipnote still shows up and no menus show to allow me to remove anything. I'm stuck with a system that runs slow and stock. The apps for homebrew, FBI, Universal installer, and son on, are all gone and there literally nothing I can do to fix it. At this point, I'm surprised it isn't bricked. My old laptop had the files and I thought I backed up everything, but I sadly didn't but a few of my original files, and nothing to fix the issue.

UPDATE. I was able to open bootstrap on my 3DS XL using the SD card from 3DS having issues. So now I fear its a problem with the system itself.

Ghost eshop is still a thing? I thought they took it down with freeeshop(and I'm pretty sure discussing piracy isn't a good thing). Just format the sd card to fat32 and re insert it back into the 3ds. Then follow 3ds.hacks.guide from "Checking for CFW." It might also be that luma3ds is outdated, so try updating luma3ds.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
