I think 4gb

I don't think offhand. I'm not sure, I'll have to check the tape and see if there was a date on it.

My pleasure! I'm happy it helped!

Greetings. Just FYI, In order to understand what Rabbi Schochet was talking about comes from Mishnah Torah - Hilchoth Issurei Biah 14 where the Rambam details the process of conversion: [START QUOTE]"What is the procedure when accepting a righteous convert? When one of the gentiles comes to convert, we inspect his background.1 If an ulterior motive for conversion is not found, we ask him: "Why did you choose to convert? Don't you know that in the present era, the Jews are afflicted, crushed, subjugated, strained, and suffering comes upon them?" If he answers: "I know. Would it be that I be able to be part of them,"4 we accept him immediately. We inform him of the fundamentals of the faith, i.e., the unity of God and the prohibition against the worship of false deities. We elaborate on this matter.5 We inform him about some of the easy mitzvot and some of the more severe ones. We do not elaborate on this matter.6 We inform him of the transgression of [not leaving] leket, shichachah, pe'ah, and the second tithe. And we inform him of the punishment given for [violating] the mitzvot. What is implied? We tell him: "Before you came to our faith, if you partook of fat, you were not liable for your soul to be cut off. If you desecrated the Sabbath, you were not liable to be stoned to death. Now, after you convert, if you partake of fat, you are liable for your soul to be cut off. If you desecrate the Sabbath, you are liable to be stoned to death. We do not teach him all the particulars lest this cause him concern and turn him away from a good path to a bad path. For at the outset, we draw a person forth with soft and appealing words, as [Hoshea 11:4] states: "With cords of man, I drew them forth,"9 and then continues: "with bonds of love." Just as he is informed of the punishment [for disobeying] the commandments; so, too, he is informed about the reward for [their observance]. We tell him that by observing these mitzvot, he will merit the life of the World to Come. For there is no completely righteous man other than a master of wisdom who observes these mitzvot and knows them. We tell him: "Know that the World to Come is hidden away only for the righteous; they are the Jews.11 The fact that you see Israel suffering difficulty in this world [reflects] the good that is hidden away for them. For they cannot receive an abundance of good in this world as the gentiles do. For they hearts may become uplifted and they will err and lose the reward of the World to Come, as [Deuteronomy 32:15] states: "Jeshuron became fat and rebelled." The Holy One, blessed be He, does not bring upon them an abundance of retribution solely so that they will not perish. For all the other nations will perish and they will prevail. We elaborate on this concept to make them feel cherished. If [the prospective convert] retracts and does not want to accept [the mitzvot], he goes on his way. If he accepts [their observance], we do not have him wait, but instead circumcise him immediately.13 If he was circumcised, we draw the blood of circumcision from him.14 We wait until he heals entirely15 and then immerse him. Three [judges] stand over him and inform him about some of the easy mitzvot and some of the more severe ones a second time while he stands in the water.16 If the convert was female,17 women position her in the water until her neck while the judges are outside. They inform her about some of the easy mitzvot and some of the more severe ones while she is sitting in the water. Then she immerses herself in their presence. Afterwards, they turn their faces away and depart so that they will not see her when she ascends from the water.[END QUOTE] Most important, what you quoted is from Issurei Baiah 13 but if you continue with what the Rambam wrote he stated the following after what you quoted: [START QUOTE]"Even if it is discovered that he converted for an ulterior motive, since he circumcised himself and converted, he has departed from the category of gentiles and we view him with skepticism until his righteousness is revealed."[END QUOTE] Also: [START QUOTE]"Even if afterwards, [the convert] worships false deities, he is like an apostate Jew. [If he] consecrates [a woman,] the consecration is valid, and it is a mitzvah to return his lost object. For since he immersed himself he became a Jew. For this reason, Samson and Solomon maintained their wives even though their inner feelings were revealed."[END QUOTE] and lastly: [START QUOTE]"For this reason, our Sages said: "Converts are as difficult for the Jewish people to bear as a leprous blemish." For most converts convert for an ulterior motive and [later] cause Jews to stray. It is difficult to separate from them once they have converted. Look at what happened in the desert at the worship of the Golden Calf and Kivrot HaTa'avah. Similarly, most of [the complaints in the instances when] our people tried God were instigated by the mixed multitude."[END QUOTE]

@@Ehav4Ever You agreed with my point at every single turn. RAMBAM says that if a convert didn't convert with the right intentions, as long as the convert had tevilah and milah they are a Jew. So those parts of the conversion are not incidental as Rav Schochet said, but critical

@@avibenavraham - Rabbi Shochet does not contradict the Rambam when he stated that tevilah and milah are "after the fact" or simply external parts of a conversion. From what the Rambam stated, it is not ideal for the person to be converted w/o the procedure he stated in chapter 14, which ends with the tevilah and milah and does not begin with it. Of course, once they have done the tevilah and milah you are stuck with them if they had the wrong intensions but as the Rambam pointed out this is not ideal. As he stated in Issurei Biah 13:14-15: [QUOTE]One should not think that Samson who saved the Jewish people, and Solomon King of Israel, who is called "the friend of God,"33 married gentile woman who did not convert. Instead, the matter can be explained as follows: The proper way of performing the mitzvah is when a male or a female prospective convert comes, we inspect his motives for conversion. Perhaps he is coming for the sake of financial gain, in order to receive a position of authority,34 or he desires to enter our faith because of fear. For a man, we check whether he focused his attention on a Jewish woman. For a woman, we check whether she focused her attention on a Jewish youth. If we find no ulterior motive, we inform them of the heaviness of the yoke of the Torah and the difficulty the common people have in observing it so that they will abandon [their desire].35 If they accept [this introduction] and do not abandon their resolve and thus we see that they are motivated by love, we accept them, as [indicated by Ruth 1:18]: "And she saw that she was exerting herself to continue with her and she ceased speaking with her."36 For this reason,37 the court did not accept converts throughout the reign of David and Solomon. In David's time, [they feared] that they sought to convert because of fear and in Solomon's time, [they feared] that they were motivated by the sovereignty, prosperity, and eminence which Israel enjoyed. [They refrained from accepting such converts, because] a gentile who seeks to convert because of the vanities of this [material] world is not a righteous convert. Nevertheless, there were many people who converted in the presence of ordinary people38 during the era of David and Solomon. The Supreme Sanhedrin would view them with skepticism. Since they immersed themselves, they would not reject them, but they would not draw them close until they saw what the outcome would be.39 [END QUOTE] The Rambam repeats this statement about the skepticism further in Issurei Biah 13:17 [QUOTE]and we view him with scepticism until his righteousness is revealed."[END QUOTE]

@@avibenavraham - also, as the Rambam stated at the end of Issurei Biah 13: [quote]Even if afterwards, [the convert] worships false deities, he is like an apostate Jew. [If he] consecrates [a woman,] the consecration is valid,42 and it is a mitzvah to return his lost object.43 For since he immersed himself he became a Jew. For this reason,44 Samson and Solomon maintained their wives even though their inner feelings45 were revealed. For this reason, our Sages said: "Converts are as difficult for the Jewish people to bear as a leprous blemish." For most converts convert for an ulterior motive and [later] cause Jews to stray. It is difficult to separate from them once they have converted. Look at what happened in the desert at the worship of the Golden Calf and Kivrot HaTa'avah. Similarly, most of [the complaints in the instances when] our people tried Hashem were instigated by the mixed multitude."[end quote]

my pleasure! I'm happy it worked.

Thanks, I try.

my pleasure! Happy to help!

thats true, running and being usable are 2 different things.

My pleasure! Not very smooth, it runs but thats about it with the limited ram. I believe this model does.

My pleasure! Today, I think the only instructions included should simply be a code to watch a video on UA-cam!

I am not sure of that myself, if I figure it out, I'll make another video Gd willing.

Thank you! I will have to try that next time. I goodwilled the printer months ago unfortunately.

I ended up goodwilling it. I bought a brother instead.

Which brother model did you get. I myself is debating between this and brother

Ach du Nichoach 7

no but it did get knocked down a few times, but I assume if you tied it around a tree or something , it would hold it in place.

my pleasure! Happy to help!

my pleasure!
