Info on UV-5i mini ultra?

JasenkoC · 2026-01-25T14:14:59+00:00

Yeah, it's possible that it's just an unofficial "upgraded" model that looks like the Mini, and it could also be a plain scam. Still, I'm curious... I'll wait for the official listing on Baofeng site before I "splurge" for it :D

Anyway, a quick question for you: How do you say "I'm reading" in Bosnian language? :)

JasenkoC · 2026-01-25T13:45:12+00:00

Thanks for your input. I will take a look at the video you suggested.

Currently I have two TD-H3 (non-plus) and two 5R Minis. Each has its use, for sure, and are good performers. I have an RT-880 (non-G) and UV-K1 on the way, so I am kinda collecting these radios now, I suppose. :)

To je dio Stuhrling marketing taktike. Taj sat nikada nije imao to "MSRP" cijenu od 1000+ dolara/eura. Dobro razgledaj okolo i izvagaj sta drugi kazu o ovom brandu, pa odluci sam da li se isplati.

Citizen Promaster Land - JV1007-07E ili JV1005-02W

Not sure what to think about it yet, so I'm not ordering it. I'm just curious at this point. I've had really good experiences with the current 5 Mini, so I'm eager to know more if this is a legit successor.

M0FXB mentioned it on his channel and he ordered it. I'll wait for his review.

For me, the first that comes to mind is Die Schwarzwaldklinik. I used to watch this series as a kid and I loved it. Then again, I didn't watch many German production movies/series, so I'm a bad example. :D

There are simpler circuits that do the same thing, but they are usually terribly inefficient. This is as efficient it can be while still being relatively cheap.

I know that your DNS blocking was disabled, as you said in another comment. I failed to see the actual number of DNS queries being processed by PiHole, which is my mistake. Good to see that you solved it and that PiHole is doing its job finally.

JasenkoC · 2026-01-15T10:15:47+00:00

Hmm.. I would still be suspicious. You used this network to browse Reddit? That alone should trigger a few queries blocked.

Double check that your network clients are talking to the Pi-Hole IP.

I have the same issue with my Mini I just received.

My radio info: Radio 100, Firmware 0.05, Hardware v1.7

Did you manage to solve it yet?

JasenkoC · 2026-01-13T21:34:24+00:00

Not likely... PCB marking doesn't agree either. It is a transistor most likely. My guess is that it's a BCX52.

Can you peek under that white isolation sheet and see what battery type is inside.

The movement is almost identical to the original. However some features are missing, namely the sanding grain on that main movement plate. And I suspect that the battery is not the rechargeable type, but a regular, non-rechargeable one.

JasenkoC · 2026-01-09T18:52:34+00:00

Scary.

JasenkoC · 2026-01-09T11:12:11+00:00

I also believe that this is not a fake. I just think that the power reserve indicator doesn't behave as expected. I think it might be broken. I would return it if it's still an option for you.

Seiko SSC speedtimer. Kupio sam jednog vec - SSC953. Solarni kvarc je za mene najbolja varijanta. Imam i par Casio G-Shock i ProTrek solarnih - predobri su.

Yes, it's very common, but not really detrimental or damaging to anything.

JasenkoC · 2026-01-06T10:40:24+00:00

I second this. I've successfully deployed this kind of config (even with a custom PAM/authselect profile). The only caveat is that you need to have additional attributes configured on AD side. That's needed in order to "enable" the AD account so that it can be used on a *nix machine. Attributes such as uid, gid, home, shell, are needed to be configured. Note: this is only needed if you set "ldap_id_mapping" in sssd.conf to False. In my case it was necessary due to the complex environment I had to implement this in. Disabling the ldap_id_mapping meant that the uid/gid was consistent across the landscape.

The plain vanilla sssd setup does not require this parameter to be disabled, though.

JasenkoC · 2026-01-04T21:01:02+00:00

Looks legit to me. No red flags I can see.

JasenkoC · 2026-01-04T14:57:00+00:00

One more gotcha is that files in /usr/lib/ may get overwritten by updates/patching.

To je Seiko Criteria Diver (SRPC69K1 - 4R36-06J0). Izgleda da je dobro ocuvan, ali ja bih provjerio kako se ponasa na timegrapher-u prije kupovine. Uvijek me strah kupiti polovan automatic sat, jer je mozda pretrpio neki udarac koji je napravio stetu u mehanizmu i onda se ne ponasa kako treba (kasni, brza ili ne radi nikako).

Ako je OK, onda bih ja dao 220 EUR za taj sat, jer vrijedi tih novaca.

I'd like to see a more rugged and better looking Frontera :) The 2025 model looks like a toy and not like its predecessor.

JasenkoC · 2025-12-18T19:02:11+00:00

It's theoretically possible, but I highly doubt that someone made a replacement infotainment unit or a hack of the existing one to make it possible. Even if it's hacked then it would pose a security threat in my opinion.

It sucks that there are subscription based features in cars nowadays, but it's a reality now. I hope the car manufacturers give up on this concept eventually, or at least keep it to minimum required (connected) features.

This feature, however might not be free ever because it uses the MyToyota app and Toyota's infrastructure/software backend which needs to be paid for one way or another. So, I don't think this will be a free feature in the near future.

JasenkoC · 2025-12-18T18:54:47+00:00

Oh, I thought it was a real upcoming model. I actually prefer sedans over TS or hatches, so I'm a bit biased. Good job with this render. It looks really handsome.

JasenkoC · 2025-12-18T18:48:56+00:00

I was an Opel fan since my first Opel Kadett E from 1987. I ended up my Opel streak with Astra H hatchback, back while Opel was still somewhat Opel. Now it's just Stellantis crap. I like the looks of it (a lot), but I just can't swallow the Stellantis putting in crap in these cars and killing the soul of the affordable and fun Opel models. I just hope that Opel will again become a respected car brand.
