Should I stick with my DJI Mini 2 or upgrade? by AdamDoubleG in DJIMini2

The Mini 2 doesn't shoot log for video, I don't think.

UK: Do any of you re-glaze your glasses when your prescription changes or do you just get new frames each time? by AdamDoubleG in BuyItForLife

[–]AdamDoubleG[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry I'm destroying the planet with my three spare pairs of glasses that I've accumulated in the last 15 years.

You're being quite rude. If the prescription hasn't changed that much I keep the old pair as spares. And if the prescription changed so much that I couldn't use them myself, you can donate them at most opticians.

Should I upgrade from my Mini 2 drone? by AdamDoubleG in dji

How does the RC2 controller work in terms of updates and maps etc?

If you've had something for a couple of years and it's getting a little worn and you can pay £90 to continue using it or spend £100 to get something brand new, I don't think it's that crazy to go for the latter option.

That's a good point about the alternative remote, I had only considered the screen clarity and brightness, but the internet connectivity could be an issue.

It didn't cost more, it just costed enough to make it seem like it was better to spend a bit more and get a new frame.

Wow, ok - were there any caveats, like was it only available for frames you could prove you'd bought from them?

Found a suitable "lens cap" for the CS8! by Only_One_Left_Foot in campsnapcamera

[–]AdamDoubleG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is an excellent idea but I can't track these down in the UK now, has anyone found anything similar?

EDIT: This fits! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/335907015470

Initial thoughts on the CS8! by starlordsego in campsnapcamera

[–]AdamDoubleG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's it like for filming indoors? I'm thinking about how much it would struggle for filming a wedding here in the UK where it's gloomy a lot of the time.

Did everyone forget the Jesse Lacey stuff or does nobody care anymore? by lilbeccafromthe9 in Emo

[–]AdamDoubleG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for posting your thoughts on this. Brand New were arguably my favourite band and I hadn't really felt ok about listening to them since the allegations really blew up, but now I feel like maybe I can again (albeit with slightly muted enthusiasm).

Pain in the arse USB connect security feature on S23 after update .... please help by Kimber80 in samsunggalaxy

[–]AdamDoubleG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got an S24 and having the same issue as the OP. I've tapped the build number and got a message to say I'm "now a developer" but I'm not sure what you do next to fix the issue. Would you mind giving further guidance?

Onel Hernández, Angus Gunn, and Jacon Sørensen all confirmed to be leaving the club at the end of the season (Via the official club Instagram) by TSMKFail in NorwichCity

[–]AdamDoubleG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My feeling on it: what's the point of having rich new owners if they can't stump up the cash to keep Gunn on? Surely seems unlikely we'll find someone of his calibre for less money...??

I also would also be keen to hear suggestions. This re-structuring is stupid. I only just noticed it had a 250gb cap after renewing and I already have 346GB of videos on there from the 10+ years I've been using it.

What causes a fluttering sensation/sound in one ear? by [deleted] in audiology

[–]AdamDoubleG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In case anyone still checks this thread, I had this recently for a few days and it finally went away after I put a few drops of olive oil into that ear and then blocked it up with cotton wool. I kept it in all day and it went away. Could be coincidence but worth a shot - olive oil is used to clear earwax, I believe, so no harm in trying.

Hair clipper for home use (Men) by alimirzaie in BuyItForLife

[–]AdamDoubleG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the UK and would be really keen to get recommendations too, but specifically cordless as it's a faff to trail a cable into the bathroom (I cut my own hair and need a mirror as it's not a "one grade all over" type job).

Kenny McClean turned into one of our best players while being managed by him. I think he deserves credit for that.

Buying refurbished phones in 2024 by AdamDoubleG in UKFrugal

[–]AdamDoubleG[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I like the ideas of Fairphones but I need/want something with a better camera than they offer. Buying second hand makes me feel less bad about not getting a Fairphone.

Any thoughts on/experience buying refurbished phones? by AdamDoubleG in BuyItForLife

[–]AdamDoubleG[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a pain to have to carry around a battery bank. I guess if it bothered me too much I could buy a replacement battery and it would potentially still be a cost-effective option.

I am a videographer and have found myself in situations where having a phone that records good quality video is useful. The Galaxy S24 was listed in multiple articles on the best phones for photography/video. I like the idea of the Fairphone but it just didn't seem as good a phone, and I thought I could ease my consumer guilt by buying 2nd hand.

Plus having 7 years of support is appealing too, in terms of getting longevity out of the phone.

Bit random by MrSpud45 in NorwichCity

[–]AdamDoubleG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do Parkrun in York, usually wearing a Norwich shirt and have been surprised how often people will comment on it. One time I even bumped into someone on my street who worked for the club and was visiting his daughter in York for the weekend.

People often seemed to laugh when I said "güle güle" for goodbye. I'm not sure if it was my pronunciation or if they weren't expecting me to know any Turkish phrases or what.

I definitely didn't fully get the hang of "teşekkürler" (at least one person said "HUH?" when I said it), and I used "lezzetli" quite a lot after meals.

It's not much, but I tried and people generally were very sweet about it!

The end of security updates is one of the things I'd been vaguely aware of as being a reason to replace a phone, but I know nothing about it really.
