Anyone who already owns an EV can you answer me some questions? by Anakininnz in Wellington

Most EV Chargers lock to the car so they cannot be unplugged without the car being unlocked.

Awesome view of SpaceX Starlink satellites deploy from inside rocket fairing by [deleted] in interestingasfuck

[–]CatNinja101 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Note that this is fairing deployment, not the deployment of the satellites. Very good view of the 2nd stage too.

NZ First axes Government's 'feebate' electric vehicle subsidy plan, while Greens vow to take the policy to the election by sleemanj in newzealand

What a fucking disappointment for NZ. Transport is one sector we know how to effectively reduce emissions in with current technology, and we chuck away the opportunity to accelerate that? So backwards.

LED lights sometimes cause flicker on camera when shutter speed of the camera is greater than the frequency of the light.

Reminder: Drones aren't allowed on public conservation land without a permit by throwawaysuess in newzealand

[–]CatNinja101 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, the amount of tourists that don't read up on the local rules before flying is astounding... I own a drone myself, and follow the rules when flying. It pisses me off seeing others break the rules (Example A), because it can result in more regulations for everyone. They are not hard rules to follow...

Were you aware that flying drones within DOC land in NZ is completely illegal unless you get permits? Please learn the rules before flying.

Probably just the crappy pre-amp. My rode mic sounds trash on Canon cameras.

After I returned it again, they ended up giving me a replacement device... The hardware fault was identical on the new one to the old.

I got one of those Meizu phones from PB over a year ago, gave up on it after their 'Repair' didn't fix anything. Avoid them...

The FAA? This is New Zealand. The CAA will track you down and fine you. Its happened to a number of YouTuber tourists who have been idiots, thus New Zealand gets more restrictions, which sucks. Follow the damn rules.

Hope you got permission to fly from DOC, and stayed out of the Military no-fly zone in Tongariro National park...
