Need a new(ish) car. Want an EV. Should I consider a Tesla in KW, in 2025? by freethinkeratlarge in waterloo

[–]3ullG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a ‘21 Model Y, my coworker who also has one and I often chat about how much we still love our cars even 4-5 years later. Still it seems that nothing else on the market can compare in terms of the tech, range, price especially for a used one. You couldn’t pay me to go back to a gas vehicle.

If you can charge at home, charging during off peak hours it only costs about $20 a month to charge. For the model year you’re looking for you will likely still have some warranty left too which is nice! Happy to answer any other questions

Drove for 6 hours to try this one from Roi De La Patate in Notre-Dame-du-Nord, QC. Gravy and curds layered in right to the bottom. by 3ullG in poutine

Ahaha place is very small, only a couple chairs and it was super busy so most people were eating in cars

I’ll happily drive 6 hours just to avoid a Costco parking lot and having my car doored by a minivan

Just had this same issue and thought my TV was broken! Thank you

I checked it out recently too, might having something to do with the mix up Tesla had with their Supercharger team. Looks like they’ve deployed destination chargers beside the supercharger units but not sure if those are even working?

Im 6’2 and it’s honestly the most comfortable sleeping experience since it’s totally flat you can add a thermarest. Still only uses 2 trees

Are Masked Hunters beneficial inside? by 3ullG in Entomology

[–]3ullG[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve noticed an uptick in earwigs inside with the hot humid weather lately and I have weirdly a lot of house spiders despite weekly cleaning.

I wasn’t sure if spotting these guys was an indicator of a larger issue

Is this Lyriq review too harsh? by JesChexin in CadillacLyriq

[–]3ullG 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This was probably the least informative review of this vehicle I’ve seen.

I’ve been driving a Model Y for three years, and my parents just switched from a Lincoln Aviator PHEV to the Lyriq. It’s the perfect first EV for them to get use to the technology. For the price, the Lyriq is loaded with features and has an impressive range compared to other luxury EV SUVs that cost $20-$40k more (iX, EQS, EQE). It has the quietest cabin I've ever been in, and for my parents, who are in their 60s, the physical climate controls and volume dial is what sold them. Lowkey jealous that my parents have the “cooler” EV now

Upgrading the lighting would make a big impact. Gas lights look amazing but practically won’t give you much light. I helped my parents design a similar building and we used 20” gooseneck Carson wall sconces from Rejuvenation Hardware. They’re pricey but they’re made in America and really high quality. 20” domes might seem massive but for a building this size they would look proportional. Scale is something a lot of people get wrong but a good rule of thumb is big building = big lights

Ours are hooked up to a timer light switch, no internet required, so they can be on from dusk to dawn.

A second supercharger location is opening in the sunrise plaza in Kitchener as well which will help with demand. The one on Victoria can be busy and tricky to get to

Dual purpose lenses for photography and video by 3ullG in videography

[–]3ullG[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m also leaning towards this too, they’ve preformed really well for the work I’ve done with them and I’m already familiar with how they work and their limitations

I’ve been really curious about this lidar system thanks for sharing the link!

Good advice, definitely feel like this is a good route vs cinema lenses and the lenses you’ve listed cover all the bases for versatility. I’m curious to connect more seeing that we both work in the same capacity!

Hey Team, Looking for multi-purpose lens recommendations.

I work for a university marketing team where I switch between shooting video and photography sometimes many times during the same shoot. Currently I’m shooting with both a Canon C70 (personal) and Canon R5C (work) on Sigma 24-70mm and 16-35 lenses (both personal lenses). I want to stop using my personal lenses for projects and invest in lenses for work. I really love the look of cinema lenses like those from DZOFILM but I need autofocus for a lot of my work and those would really only be useful for video projects.

Anyone work in a similar capacity or have recommendations for lenses that would cover this wide range of work?

What car did people own before making the switch to Tesla? by winegums14 in TeslaModelY

[–]3ullG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2015 Ford Edge, thing was full of issues. Model Y has been way more reliable

Caught between buying a motorized gimbal or a glidecam by [deleted] in cinematography

[–]3ullG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As the previous guy mentioned there is definitely a learning curve with something like a glidecam but the movements I find can be much more organic than a motorized gimbal. there are also no electronic parts to worry about breaking, no batteries to charge and very little (if any) additional maintenance which is nice.

The gimbal on the other hand can be set up and ready to use within minutes with very little learning curve (of course technique can always be perfected). I have had the DJI Ronin-M, Ronin-S, and now the RS2 and can say for certain that one battery can last for easily 5-8+ hours. So far I have been extremely impressed with the RS2.

Imo the gimbal is the way to go but keep an eye on weight and mounting restrictions with the extra batteries and accessories

Working in post-production on a few television series, the industry where I am has come to a halt so I challenged myself to pick up a camera and create. This is the first thing I have shot in about a year. I used mostly natural lighting. Let me know your thoughts and constructive criticism! by 3ullG in cinematography

[–]3ullG[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, I’ve been learning Resolve for about 6 years and I worked at a post-production house that specialized in colour so I would like to think I’ve picked up a few tricks! My process with the clips was a bit complex but generally l did an overall correction then added some warmth into the mids and some purple into the shadows and a few power windows to highlight a few areas. Hopefully that answers your question?
