My SD Card stopped working twice. Ive already ressetted once, over all it took me 4 days to get all the downloads on it and setting up the emulators on Android.

My set up:

Switch Oled : Picofly
SD Card: 512gb (Brand: Amazon)
SD Card Format: Fat32

I created Android with partitions in Hekate. Ive pulled alot of games into the sd card using the Android USB, it works well. When I got to 1-2gb left on both partitions, the SD Card had issues with the Android USB where I can no longer drag files to the SD Card. So I took it out and put it on the PC to drag a file over, it worked. I was able to drag an APK file over but right after I eject and place it back in the Console, the Console no longer recognize any SD Card being injected.
So I took and put it back in the Computer and it tells me to “for mat it” which I refused. The PC prompts for me to format the Android partition everytime I put the SD card into the PC, but now it can no longer read any partitions on it, it just prompts me to format it and doesnt show the volume anymore.
I tested it with Mini Patition tool, I can still see the partitions and I used a scan test for failure of disk and there wete no errors, its without issue.
I reckon it has something to do with the Android partition ad this has happened in the past.

Does anyone have any answers to remedy this and is this an occasional occurence for those who uese Android partitions on the Switch? I am using Mini tools to recover the data right.

    @Psionic Roshambo, Yeah, BonziBuddy was both spyware and ad-ware. It collected children's personal information without consent as well as display fake Windows popups.

    the legal drinking age here in the US is 21, as some of you may know, but i think either it should be 18 or the age you're an adult should be 21.

  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and i know what you may be thinking, "why become an adult at 21? doesn't that mean that banging an 18 year old would be illegal?"
    first of all, being in a relationship with someone who's 18 is technically ok, as long as it started when they were 18, but the age gap is still weird depending on how old you are. besides, the age of consent differs between different states

  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    also my reasoning for adult age being 21 is because the reason that's the drinking (and now smoking) age is because it "gives them more time to think rationally and not drive drunk"
    so you should have that extra time to mature and think rationally before going to serve in the military or vote

  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    tl;dr the "adult" age and the legal drinking age (and voting age) here in the US should be the same

    It's all good no one pays attention to the law anyway lol
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What about making kids wait till 18 or 21 to drive? And yea is messed up, you can join army and die for your country at age 18, but you can't drink alcohol or smoke a cig til 21, is ridiculous
