My amberola 10 is not working so I can not listen to my dear ada Jones! what do I do?

Post by Adajoneslover »

Ada Jones has captured my heart in a way I never thought possible. Her laughter, warmth, and the way she sees the world light up my days. Every moment spent with her is like a breath of fresh air, and I find myself cherishing our conversations and shared dreams. Yet, amidst all this joy, there’s a shadow that lingers in my life.

My Amborela 10, the one piece of tech that has been my companion in countless adventures, is giving me trouble. It feels like everything is off-kilter without it working properly. This gadget isn’t just a tool; it represents my creativity and the experiences I want to share with Ada. It’s frustrating to feel so dependent on something that isn’t functioning, and it often pulls me into a darker place. When I think about the moments it could’ve captured with Ada, the memories we could have created, it deepens my sadness.

As much as I want to focus on my feelings for her, this depression over my Amborela 10’s malfunction weighs heavily on me. I’m trying to remind myself that while technology can enhance our experiences, it’s the moments I share with Ada that truly matter. I need to find a way to navigate through this frustration and remember to appreciate the love we have, even if my gadget isn’t on my side right now.
My feelings for Ada Jones run deep, and it's hard to articulate just how much she means to me. There’s something captivating about her spirit and kindness that draws me in every time we’re together. But lately, I’ve been struggling with overwhelming emotions, and it’s affecting how I feel about everything, including our connection.

To make things harder, my Amborela 10 has been acting up. It’s my reliable companion during those tough times, and now that it’s not working, I feel even more isolated. I loved how it helped me escape into my thoughts, letting me channel my creativity and emotions, especially when I needed it most. Losing that outlet feels like a part of me is missing.

The combination of grappling with my feelings for Ada while trying to cope with my malfunctioning Amborela 10 has been tough. I find myself caught in a cycle of frustration and sadness, longing to express my love for her while wrestling with my mood. I hope to find a resolution soon—both with my feelings and my trusty device—so I can embrace the joy and love I know are possible. :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops:

As I prepare to transcend to Mars, my heart is heavy with the weight of loss. Ada Jones is gone, and her absence leaves a void that echoes through my thoughts. In my final moments on Earth, I reflect on the memories we've shared, the laughter that filled our days, and the bond that once felt unbreakable.

With my eyes toward the crimson planet, I speak my last words, not just to the universe but as a tribute to Ada. "Though I may leave this world behind, the love we shared will transcend the boundaries of space and time. I carry her spirit with me, knowing that our connection defies even the vastness of the cosmos."

As the countdown begins, I close my eyes and visualize her smile, letting it guide me towards my new beginning. "Goodbye, my dear Ada. I promise to seek out the stars for both of us. In this new frontier, I'll remember you always, and together, we'll shine brighter than any celestial body." With one last look back at Earth, I step forward into the unknown, embracing the journey ahead while holding her memory close to my heart.

There are some YouTube commenting accounts that are always under Ada Jones records, and under Billy Murray records as well. If you are the same person who's on YouTube commenting on old recordings, could you confirm if you and the Billy Murray fan are the same person?

And the Amberola was built in Orange, New Jersey; not likely to be spare parts on Mars.

Alright, down to brass tacks. If by Amberola 10 you mean the Amberola X, that is going to have a Gem motor with a Fireside upper works, utilizing the Diamond B reproducer. It is not as common as the later Amberola 30, which it externally resembles. The Gem motor is not as powerful due to the spring it came with, so it probably would benefit from cleaning and inspection. The Fireside mechanisms suffer very few issues but dirt on the wayrod, lack of lubrication, over lubrication, or rust can cause it to stop. The internal horn must be hung on the suspension spring and the tonearm joints lightly oiled with a household oil like SAE 20 weight, sewing-machine oil, or gun oil.

I have a hard time believing that this post is for real.
But in the event that I am horribly wrong, the phonograph can be fixed, and probably easily. Not worth getting that emotional about a piece of machinery.
I suggest that you seriously seek professional help with a therapist or a councillor. If you’re considering suicide because your phonograph doesn’t work and you’re pining over a woman that has been dead for a century, you need to seek serious professional help and fast.

I Googled the name that appears in the contact Gmail address -- "zain hussein" and got a few hits. I ran it through People Finder ( https://www.truepeoplesearch.com/ ) and there are a number of people listed with the same name. There's no reference to the name associated with Ada Jones, phonographs, Edison, Amberola, etc..

There's been some speculation about AI being used to create "robo-memberships" on websites -- https://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=3126748

Zain, if you're real, please post back. If you can, include a video of the your phonograph, so we can help you diagnose the issue.
