Thanks, didn’t realise you could do that. And yeah, the note is very misleading.

I’ve just noticed something extra: As I said before, if I select English as a language, then “Undetermined” becomes deselected, yet the content still remains viewable. Well, I’ve just figured out why the content remains viewable: It’s because “Undetermined” for some reason gets automatically re-selected; it’s just that you can’t see that it’s happened unless you refresh the whole settings page (after saving).

I think the whole language section of the settings needs a redesign, because this is very confusing.

Thanks, but no. I’ve realised now that I accidentally deselected English as a language option and saved changes (I saved changes because I was testing the “Auto expand media” option). But I was a bit mislead by the little note above the languages which says “Warning: If you deselect Undetermined, you will not see most content.”. It made me think that I needed to make sure that “Undetermined” is selected in order to keep seeing most content, because that’s what it sounds like in its wording. So I re-selected “Undetermined” and saved changes, and it caused my posts to disappear; I just didn’t notice immediately because I was busy transferring my subscriptions from this account over to my new one. I’m still not sure what that note was trying to say, but I’ve fixed it now by selecting English.

What makes it a bit more confusing is that when I select English, “Undetermined” becomes deselected, which is what the note is telling you not to do; this must be what compelled me to select “undetermined”, because selecting anything else deselected “Undetermined”. It’s only after you save and completely refresh the page, that “Undetermined” suddenly becomes re-selected again, but English also remains selected at the same time.

Thankyou, that fixed it! Didn’t realise I had done that. On the web client, there’s a little note above the languages list that says “Warning: If you deselect Undetermined, you will not see most content.” This confused me because I thought it was saying that “undetermined” needed to be selected in order to see most content. So after clicking another language, I re-selected “Undetermined” to make sure the language would remain as it was. So I think the wording of the little note mislead me and caused me to do the wrong thing. I clicked “Save” after that, not knowing that I’d disabled English posts.

I still don’t fully understand that little note, because if I select English, then “Undetermined” is automatically deselected; but I still see most content (including what’s on my profile). But if I specifically select “Undetermined” and save the changes, than the posts become invisible, even though that’s what the note seemed to be trying to make sure I did.

The note seems to be saying “Keep Undetermined selected” in order to keep seeing most content, while in reality, selecting “Undetermined” makes most content disappear. Do you see what I’m trying to say?

Edit: Re-worded some of the second paragraph and split it into two, because I had an incomplete sentence that didn’t make sense. Oops; ironic.

I don’t think the article was trying to imply that they weren’t already in use in electric cars, just that they would be better for them.

No worries. Thanks so much for uploading it. Glad I reached so many people before the time.

Thanks. Sorry for the hassle.

Hey, just letting you know that there’s less then 33 hrs remaining at the time of writing.

Hey, even though I’m not officially part of this project, I’m sorry to say that at least for the period of April 6, at 12PM to 4PM PDT (Pacific Daylight Time), the maintainer of the server mistakenly didn’t see that the server had run out of storage space. This means that any dumps made by anyone within this time period didn’t actually get archived in the end. The exact amount of time is unknown. This 4 hr period is just the least amount of time the server was down for, so for all he knows, it could have been for the entire day of April 6th up until 4PM in the afternoon (PDT). Again, even though this wasn’t because of me, I’m sorry about this. If you can, could you please make the dump one last time if possible? As the archive servers are now working correctly again.

I appreciate you’ve gone to this much effort. Thankyou. I’m so sorry if this affects you. Because your message is 13 hrs ago, I will assume that you weren’t affected by this, so you likely don’t have to worry:

There was an announcement on the Discord by the maintainer of the server which the entire archive is stored on. He announced that he’d accidentally not noticed that the server storage-space had run out, from all the dumps being made. This means that for at least 4 hrs, all dumps made by contributors were not being received, even though they thought they had been. Here’s the screenshot of the post.

So the servers were first overfilled starting April 6, 12PM Pacific Daylight Time (PDT); and was fixed by the server maintainer at 4:08PM (PDT). However, all he knows is that the full amount of time the server was having this issue was “at least a 4 hrs”, so it could have started some hrs prior to 12PM; it could have even been the entire day for all he knows. I know this is annoying. I’m not officially a part of this project, I’m just spreading the word, but I’m still sorry for you if this affects you. If you think you made your dump within this time period, you will need to make the dump again. Otherwise, if you made the dump prior, but on the same day, it might be worth re-dumping, because your original dump may have not actually properly uploaded due to this mistake on the server-owners part.

Please forgive me. That information was wrong, the data does not stay after factory resetting. I’m editing my comment to clarify this.

I used the modded method so I’m not sure I can help you personally, but the people over at Discord will be very willing to help. Here is an invite to the Discord https://discord.gg/bVpaR9EY so you can get help; I’m sure they can help you. Otherwise, there is another method listed on the site that doesn’t involve Python, but it only works on the New 3DS or New 2DS though. I don’t know if the method is any more or less difficult, though.

Hey. Gotten around to it yet? Just checking in with a few of the “I’ll do it later posts”.

Hey, you looked further into getting it done yet? I’ve had a lot of “I’ll do it later” posts, so just checking in on some people.

Hey, just checking in and seeing if you remembered to make your dump yesterday? Just in case you forgot.

Don’t mean to bug you, but did you end up getting it done? Just wanting to check in.

Note that if you got the console second hand (even if it was factory reset), apparently, the SpotPass data stays on the console in the background, so it may be of more help than you think.

Edit on May 13, 2024 (Originally commented April 5): Sorry, but this information was incorrect and no data remains after a factory reset. Mainly making this edit for future readers.

Thanks a lot! Don’t forget about the time-zone information so you don’t miss it. April 8 at 4PM PDT (Pacific Daylight Time)
