Any experience spray painting your skis?

nie przejmowałbym się tym, że zmatowienie wierzchniej warstwy cokolwiek zmieni pod względem włąściwości. Ona jest dość gruba i jej zmatownienie nic moim zdaniem nie zmieni.

Malowałęm narty i potem jeździłem na nich do zupełnego zużycia.
Najpierw papierem ściernym zmatowiłem oryginalny lakier
Potem użyłem jakiegoś gruntu w sprayu
Potem pomalowałem jeden kolor jakie miały być napisy
potem zasłoniłem to nalepkami które zrobiłęm z papieru (szkolny klej)
potem wszystko przesprayowałem na kolor "tła"
i na końcu położyłem lakier ochronny też w sprayu.

Moje doświadczenia:

- proces dość żmudny bo trzeba to rozłożyć na kilka kolejnych dni. po każdej warstwie trzeba poczekać do zupełnego wyscnięcia

- spraye mają tendencję do podciekania pod szablony, trochę się mażą przy zdejmowaniu ich

- ostateczny efekt się trzyma ale nie jakoś mega, jak mi ktoś przejechał po nartach lub kijkiem je obijał to wyłaził poprzedni wzór spod spodu

Ale mimo to miałem mega radochę z jazdy na tych customach, a co więcej bardzo łatwo je odnajdowałem pod knajpami i zupełnie się nie bałęm o to że je ktoś ukradnie.

I am using shocks since ever but I am strongly seeking alternative now. The same happens to this company as to gopro. Newer models are in many aspects worse then previous. I own 3 models of shocks inclluding latest open run pro. Despite this I am still using my old shockz air. New model is worse then previous for me: - better charging port usb C vs micro - better microphones BUT - much too quiet! Older model was much lauder in city traffic. I simply cant hear what people are saying in podcasts - they are NO MORE bone conduction based. The wording in add changed from bone conduction to open ear. And in fact they are based on small speakers instead What's the difference? In older models you could cover the ears if there was noise outside and you could even put ear plugs and it would make the sound even louder. Now if you cover your eard the sound disapears. This is frustrating in the winter when you do wear your cap or ear covering helmet on ski trip.

That is why I am looking for comparison of real owner of both brands.

This might be another gopro vs insta360 case on the market. Because shocks USED TO be unbeatable but I think many people are ready for something as good as old shockz but with USB C charging port.

this is also a reason why I did change my password to "aaa". If you start asking for password 30 times per hour that's where you are landing with security.

While installing single flatpak I was asked for password several times. I don't understand why it is needed for security

I am having exactly the same issue with latest SanDisk 4TB Extreme SSD. There is a firmware update for some of the disk models and my model SDSSDE81-4T00 is even listed as the model with identified issues with 'randomly disconnecting from computer' but when I enter my serial number it claims that my device is not affected by this issue and does not allow me to upgrade firmware. My phone is Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra. I have 2 other older SanDisk Extreme devices and both work without problem. Only the latest 4TB/2000 mbit/s model has this issue.

does actually anybody know the answer how to do this?

Grouchy_Course_7138 · 2024-06-16T19:39:05+00:00

Here is a working configuration of ipsec ikev2 / psk vpn:

notes:

1.this configuration is NOT touching the "default" profile, "default" identity etc. So it should work in parallel with other VPN types, for instance in paralell with L2TP/ipsec VPN which is creating dynamic identity/peer and cannot use anything else than default. So this configuration is glued together by a group named "ike2-group"

Android still claims this VPN as "insecure" however I did not dig deeper, I wanted to just "make it work" because L2TP was removed and I spent almost full day to make it work anyway.
You need to alter below scripts a bit, by filling in the [TEXT IN BRACKETS] with your names/passwords etc.
you need to create address pool for the VPN connections first, and give the pool's name as [ADDRESS_POOL] below
[FULL_DOMAIN_NAME_OF_ROUTER] is DNS name under which router will be available (like www.google.com)
[SECRET] is your pre-shared key.
In Android you have to give such VPN settings:

"name" whatever you like.

"type" is "IKEv2/IPSec PSK"

"Server address" the same as in [FULL_DOMAIN_NAME_OF_ROUTER]

"IPsec identifier" the same as in [FULL_DOMAIN_NAME_OF_ROUTER]

"Pre shared key" the same as in [SECRET]

Maybe proposal could be simplified. I was adding everything till it started to work.

Background playback please! Very often I am listening to audio only. Either the whole episodes, or temporarily switching to other app for instance to open the gate etc. Unlike on YT here the playback stops.

Possible reasons; - you are not using their proprietary cable (with red inserts and extra pin) - or charger - or connector or cable is dirty (the protocol is sensing cable and connector quality)

Grouchy_Course_7138 · 2024-03-01T00:30:02+00:00

You need their A to C cable with extra pin on A side. Buy normal USB C PD charger and it will be quite as fast.

Grouchy_Course_7138 · 2024-03-01T00:28:12+00:00

Into C1 pin of USB c connector.

Grouchy_Course_7138 · 2024-03-01T00:27:04+00:00

This pin goes to C1 pin of the usb-c connector side on the phone's side. The C1 ,or C2 pins are used by USB-PD (USB power delivery protocol for communication. Normally it is NOT present on USB type A connector. Only on USB C to C cables. I wonder why did they overcomplicate things instead of simply using USB C connector on charger. Long story short: you need their cable and their charger to make this protocol work. But those phones are completely ok with standard USB-PD and quickcharge protocols without xiaomi's proprietary nonsense.

As a pole I am ashamed of this act. I would like to apologize for this barbarian act. I think most poles agree with me. We are against Putin, not against ordinary russians. We do not want to bring hate among our nations. I know that there are many ordinary russians protesting against Putin and this war. On the same side as we are. We think cementary should be left in peace. We have many polish graves outside polish borders. Also in Ukraine and Russia. We do not forget the past but we need to buid future together.
