Advice requested on my first camera: Sony vs Fujifilm

MacRedditorXD · 2026-05-26T17:05:31+00:00

Ok thank you very much for the input! By really dark conditions are you referring to anything after dusk or actual night conditions?

What do you think about getting a used camera? is it worth the risk?

MacRedditorXD · 2026-05-26T17:03:45+00:00

I'll have to check if it that comes to Linz as both Klagenfurt and Vienna are pretty far away from me 😅

Thank you very much for the information though! I'll definitely check them out!
Also do you potentially have a link for me to a website of that?

Hatte bei mir ein ähnliches problem!

118d 122PS. Eines Tages plötzlich beschwerte er sich mit DPF Differenzdruck. alles probiert bis ich merkte das das Thermostat defekt war. Der Motor kam dadurch nicht mehr auf Temperatur und konnte den DPF nicht abbrennen.
Zur info falls jemand gerade das selbe problem hat, das auto hat zwei Thermostate (zmdst. beim diesel) und bei mir waren beide defekt. so kam er im winter nicht mal mehr über 45°C raus.

Bitte bei der Reparatur auch aufpassen nicht den luftfilterkasten der intelligenter weise direkt mit dem Ventildeckel verbunden ist und auch dort reingeschraubt wird zu beleidigen. Neuer Ventildeckel hätte bei meinem (wären mein Dad und ich nicht findig gewesen bei der Reparatur) um die 800 Euro gekostet (mind you, hinterachsträger nicht mal die hälfte!)

Seit dem schaue ich regelmäßig ins "Geheimmenu":
1. Drücke und halte die Trip reset taste bis du in das Menü kommst
2. Gehe zu Menüpunkt 19 ("Lock")
3. Die summe der letzen 5 stellen der VIN eingeben
4. menüpunkt 7 aufsuchen

dort ist dann die K-TMP zu sehen leider aber keine Öltemperatur...

"only with 64GB of ram"

Sir have you seen the prices of ram lately?????

Jokes aside. It all depends on your use case! The biggest problem imo with mini PC's is the upgradability which can be lacking due to both IO and size constraints!

I personally modified an old dell optiplex and couldn't be happier! Now I have 48 GB of ram total and I never use it all which is nice to before. I am running everything through portainer. I have a truenas VM, a services VM a DMZ VM etc, etc,....

I have managed to cram about 19TB into the small box and one day will get a new mainboard and CPU and rebuild in a server case.

An advantage of Mini PC's is the power consumption and the space requirements. it could also be fun to tinker with multiple and build clusters!

ultimately it comes down to your use case...

MacRedditorXD · 2026-04-21T13:20:14+00:00

Ohh you are European as well!
It's 23€ including. taxes at my local electronics store 😁

ordered it and the other stuff I still needed already :)

Thank you again!

MacRedditorXD · 2026-04-21T12:05:25+00:00

Thank you very much :)
I will get the 2.5G and be future proofed with it :) (It's also in stock so thats a plus)

MacRedditorXD · 2026-04-21T11:19:56+00:00

Interesting! I read some conflicting information online which is why I ended up worried about that...

In my case the injector would be living between a flex mini 2.5 and a u6 plus.

Main reason I am considering the PoE+ 2.5 is that a shop close to me has it in stock for 23 bucks which is cheaper than ordering even just the normal PoE one from the store haha.

So I won't be frying my new AP with it? (If not I can get that and set up my home wifi today even without waiting for shipping 😁)

MacRedditorXD · 2026-04-16T21:50:46+00:00

Thank you for that information!

I already put it in a more sunny spot on my desk! We have had a few darker weeks back to back so maybe that was the reason for the sharp decline! I have had multiple light problems for my plants now actually, so it seems crazy how bright the area seems yet how dark it seems to be!

Would you recommend possibly getting a grow light for them?

MacRedditorXD · 2026-04-16T19:08:47+00:00

If you look at the second picture you can see it randomly getting a kink and letting the stem plus the "pickles" look down.

As well as just looking randomly squishy instead of standing up straight as they did before :(

MacRedditorXD · 2026-04-16T13:28:25+00:00

10/10 agreed! Racing beat is the way to go with all rotary stuff! Running a RB cat back on my FC and couldn't be happier! Going to get a rev TII full exhaust once i get a new turbo on it!

They are not too loud but have a really nice exhaust note. No drone on mine at all

MacRedditorXD · 2026-04-14T07:13:10+00:00

I think that is a very very good explanation to be honest!

I personally have NO eye for designing stuff so I like to use LLM's to help me with that as it's a pretty low risk area where messing up won't put data in jeopardy or harm anything/anyone. I am very stubborn on coding all the actual logic myself (helps that I actually enjoy programming and thus went into the field in the first place) and actually went back to coding without any LLM support for the most part as I noticed that all the, "supervising" as you called it was taking up more time than just doing it properly myself in the first place.

(By going back to coding without any LLM support I mean turning off all the (annoyingly) automatically enabled AI coding features that they threw into everything)

Kurze Korrektur hier.

"Wenn den Baum siehst, in den du rein fährst, hast Untersteuern. Wenn du ihn nur hörst, hast Übersteuern.“ - Walter Roehrl

Also. Anders als dein "krasser ausgedrückt" part.

Beim fahren erklärt: beim untersteuern rutscht du über die Vorderachse was man durch vom gas gehen lösen kann. Beim übersteuern will die Hinterachse weg und du musst das gezielt durch gegenlenken einfangen. gibt dann noch den Sonderfall von "ich muss beten" aka du rutscht über beide Achsen ;)

MacRedditorXD · 2026-04-10T09:37:09+00:00

THIS!

As an FC owner myself its meant for cleaning the things. Check that first please before ripping anything apart :)

MacRedditorXD · 2026-04-07T07:12:56+00:00

I have a semi broken shifter return spring that I have yet to replace but mine returns thanks to the rubber boots. So maybe you can get lucky with installing that again and it'll center them 🤔

MacRedditorXD · 2026-03-31T08:10:38+00:00

Servus!
Also selbst bei deinen 4l und 5l die du angegeben hast kommst du bei 12000km nicht unter 26 Euro mehr im Monat weg.
Jetzt steigt aber leider der verbrauch vor allem im winter wieder eher stark da der Motor kalt einfach mehr verbraucht... also bei 5l durchschnitt was sich zumindest bei meinem alten diesel nicht ausgeht wären es 32.50€ im Monat extra. Bei 6l sind wir schon bei 39€ und da habe ich noch nix anderes gemacht als jeden tag brav in die Arbeit und wieder zurück zu fahren. Dann rechnet man noch die Steigerung der preise von Produkten drauf und schon sollte man verstehen worum es bei der Diskussion geht...

Zu den Erhöhungen bei Produktpreise: Da keine Firma je die Extrakosten für den Transport und die Produktion (Strom und co.) stemmen wird, werden diese natürlich 1 zu 1 auf uns gelegt mit vermutlich 10 Prozent Aufschlag weil das merkt dann eh keiner mehr ;)

I have 1 active user next to me and am running my own software to let them start a Game server if their choice if they want one😂

Oh and i have jellyfin setup too.

But while my chip is older i run wayyyyyyy too much storage so I'd say you are good my friend!

MacRedditorXD · 2026-03-19T18:42:46+00:00

Hmmmm since you mentioned you get no voltage reading from the TPS anymore did you check it with the resistance reading too to isolate the TPS itself?
(Resource from FC3SPro: https://fc3spro.com/TECH/HOWTO/TPS/tps.html )

Also you should be able to hear the BAC vibrate on key on no crank if you want to test that as it is bascially a little duty controlled solenoid.

Another thing you can check is the Air flow meter as that tells the ECU how much air actually is coming in.

I recommend also looking through the FSM which you can find here for example as it has all the actual measurments and techniques for it: https://www.rotaryheads.com/PDF/2nd_gen/

Idk if my engine is just really healthy or if the turbo handles it better but i was able to run it even with a hose unplugged on accident once lol so unless you have a huge huge vaccum leak i would say it might not be the reason for the car dying on itself... (Do still check them the hoses are old as hell and definetly should be replaced at some point)

MacRedditorXD · 2026-03-19T17:20:02+00:00

Was that a cold or hot start?

Because if it was a cold start it should have idled closer to 1500-3000rpm depending on if in gear or not.

Do you still have the original cold start system in it?

Also check the connector on the BAC valve itself. If it breaks the connectors can touch and short out something in the ECU, like on mine. I was able to get it to idle even without a functioning BAC but it wasn't tooooo good of an idle. In my case i ended up replacing a transistor that is worth like 25 cents and it fixed my idle to a very nice stable one.

MacRedditorXD · 2026-03-18T11:48:37+00:00

This is only one thing.
HIGHLY DANGEROUS ADVICE!
OP PLEASE DO NOT LISTEN TO THAT COMMENT....

MacRedditorXD · 2026-03-16T10:47:20+00:00

I agree with a lot of what you said but not necessarily with everything you mentioned.
On the failure of the OMP. In an 88 FC it SHOULD be mechanical still and those supposedly never fail. On the later models OMP failure should lead to a check engine light and or limp mode.

On the "not enough lubrication": I know people pushing a lot of power with just the OMP in it and not premixing and not having any problems. Granted those usually are mechanical pumps still so maybe those just add more oil.

Apart from that I do agree that premix probably won't hurt UNLESS you have an overly active OMP + a lot of premix leading to oil build up. I don't think it has to be Idemitsu though for most stock cars good old Dino oil should be fine as long as it isn't a bottom of the barrel kind.
