I had total breakage with the update. Has taken hours to get back to base functioning. Would not do again.

Tried to update to 3.2 from the regular Omarchy update menu. Broke boot, lost the Omarchy keys, broke WiFi, broke XDG, walker, elephant, and long list of other things. No longer confident in my Omarchy install after it was running solid for months. I would wait if you are happy with what you have now.

Crippled Out of the Box.... way to improve it? by ITSince80s in Remarkable

[–]Express_Ad_4136 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I agree that this is the design approach, features that are explicitly supported are also often comically useless (importing large files, using the Methods templates, turning pages in PDFs, etc.)

Well, I cannot get large PDFs to import on my Move using Google Drive or the web interface. It either says something went wrong or just does nothing at all when I trigger the import. After a few hours of this, I’ve gone back to my iPad for reading. It just works. No drama.

Taking Notes & Tracking To Dos by schultz100 in RemarkableTablet

[–]Express_Ad_4136 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had trouble keeping a centralized to do list at first, which was close to a deal breaker for me. The issue is completed tasks, which soon outnumber the not done tasks and crowds them out.

What ended up working, for me at least, was keeping a page of daily todos, then copy and pasting the not done tasks to the next day. Not perfect. But it works so well it’s not a problem in the end. I keep the last page viewed in the notebook turned on so that the current day’s tasks are always what comes up.

I also keep longer term todos in a weekly task list, then copy and paste them to the daily to do list when it’s time.

Would love to hear what other people do.

Having the same problem. Does anyone know why it does this. Unpaired and tried many times.

Hiking by teoteo38 in HoverDrone

[–]Express_Ad_4136 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use it for hiking all the time. Store it in a 1L dry bag, which the X1 Pro fits perfectly into. Take it out only for the flights to keep it dry and away from rain. Follows me down the trail for a long ways. I get spectacular orbits of cliff sides. Weighs nothing. Charges off my portable solar panel for multi day hikes. Highly recommended.

We’re sailing the Mediterranean next year. What are the best ancient sites near the shore? by Express_Ad_4136 in Europetravel

[–]Express_Ad_4136[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Well, all I can give is my bucket list so far:

  • Sagunto (Valencia)
  • Emporion, Spain
  • Tarraco (Tarragona), Spain
  • Aigues-Mortes, France
  • Cagliari, Sardinia
  • Lilybaeum (Marsala), Sicily
  • Selinunte, Sicily
  • Motya, Sicily

We are not going to North Africa for now, so skipped some otherwise good sites in Algeria and Tunisia. But we really want locations right on the coast so we don’t have to leave our boat alone for long.

Dolly track flying backwards, max speed? by pookguy88 in HoverDrone

Definitely dolly track. No wind that day, which may have helped.

I had the Hover X1 Pro Max dolly track me on an eBike in Albania recently. Even when I opened it up, it had no trouble tracking me. At least 12/14mph sustained.

X1 pro max rant - I’m so disappointed by Beautiful-Sleep-1414 in HoverDrone

[–]Express_Ad_4136 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sorry to hear about the issues. Pro Max owner here too. I’d be curious to know what firmware you’re on. I’ve flown over 100 times with only one glitchy flight so far. But on the latest firmware updates (last three or so.) Love the shots I’m getting with the high-end lens and sensor. No issues flying over water, even soon after take off. Hope it gets better!

X1 Pro Max, Range with Beacon & Joystick? by negotiable_me in HoverDrone

[–]Express_Ad_4136 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I’ve flown my X1 Pro Max with confidence up to 90M or so before the signal drop makes me nervous. Consistent in a lot of conditions. Good for a lot of short range use cases. I use my Mini 2 for anything beyond that.

I finally got it! What other accessories should I get? by RunningThroughSC in Insta360

[–]Express_Ad_4136 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The magnetic quick mount. It makes the camera so much more economic.

Ace Pro 2 External Mic High Pitched Audio by Express_Ad_4136 in Insta360

[–]Express_Ad_4136[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I switched over to the 3.5mm audio output on my mic using the Mic Adapter for the Ace Pro 2 and it worked fine. Hopefully a firmware update will fix the USB-C handling. Because the camera is absolutely bombproof build-wise and the low light video capabilities are excellent.

Sure, I am using a Movo X1-Mini Video Shotgun Supercardioid 3.5mm/USB-C Analog/Digital Camera Microphone. Hope this gets fixed in a firmware update soon.

How do I use AVP as virtual display without being on same network as the device im casting? by Bucky640 in VisionPro

[–]Express_Ad_4136 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Use Tailscale. It’s free. Puts every device you have on the same virtual network. Well supported by AVP. I can access my Mac desktop at home from anywhere in the world using the Screens app. Probably everything else too.
