I was 13 years old

Looks like you are a victim of a phone spoofing scam. File a claim with your FCC equivalent and hope they get to it within a month
Sometimes I get voicemails that are literally in chinese
and I assume they're from Ali sellers telling me they shipped my shit or something
You should probably file a request because I know you aren't silly enough to give your real phone
I get em too, got my Chinese fren to translate and it's literally "You have a package waiting but tarrifs and fees need to be paid! Please call (number) to arrange pickup"

Chunked
So you remember NOOBS installation being brain-dead? Well I somehow managed to fuck it up. I copied the extracted NOOBS files to SD, plugged in peripherals as specified, plugged in power and... nothing!
I still can't get it to work, the only thing that could be wrong at this point is either corrupted files or a DOA board.

@Matthew you predicted it
@Iren Masot aren't you supposed to flash the OS to the SD card instead of just copy/pasting?
No, NOOBS is copy/paste into the SD card after unzipping the files.
Literally plug and play but I can't get my Pi to post anything. 😂 👌 💯
Excellent assistance friend, your Reddit gold is in the mail
I literally followed given instructions to the letter, still nothing
<:brainlet:589104479887032330>
Gotta be bad hardware somewhere at this point.
SCP-level incompetence
I hear tell a green light should flash to indicate the SD card is being red, and that is NOT happening, I think this board is DOA boys.

Maybe your power source is bad?
I've tried two now to identical results, and tried separate HDMI cables too
Just haven't tried an SD card yet, but the one I have works perfectly fine in Windows with no issues.
was the sd card formatted to the right type?
ntfs, fat32, exfat, etc
I used the SD Foundation formatter as specified with no further fuckery on my part.
exFAT, tho.
is the default from the specified formatter.
I'm guessing you used this guide?
