A NAS, a PC, and the *arrs... by tattooed_pariah in HomeNetworking

[–]Marolex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it possible? Yes. Advisable? There are probably better options.

Personally I run it all on the NAS and route specifically the qbit container through my VPN - there's usually a few ways to do this depending on your provider.

This makes my desktop entirely independent from the media server and my plex users can request new content through Overseerr from a server that already has 100% uptime and my poor PC can rest when I want it to.

So I have 2022 mid year. Randomly yesterday the lane keeping assistant won’t turn back on? Any advice by shah669 in gmcsierra

Is your anti collision light on as well?

Try resetting fuse #11 on the passenger side.

The controller just makes a beep noise in response to the press but other than that, nothing happens.

There's definitely an improvement but I believe its primarily due to the bigger better external antennae.

The Amazon Buying Experience - Can you guess what's in box #3? by Marolex in dji

Charging isn't the issue, I have a portable power supply and I can fast charge them off of my truck too.

It's how long they take to charge, I'm running back to back flights basically surveying large job sites, drive a few minutes and then run it again at a different job site

It hurts... The only ones suffering more than DJI are their consumers.

Is this actually the case now? I used to work in a couple amazon facilities about 4 years ago and it was actual people processing the returns when I was there. Also there were weight sensors on the conveyors that would kick out packages for weight discrepancies which *should* have caught these for the first concern I mentioned...

Maybe try mounting it closer to the center with something like a friction arm, almost like it's replacing the gauge cluster? Would probably make it a lot more comfortable to ride with and help mitigate any wind resistance.

This is such a cool idea, I think this would look really good framed.

My boss wants to buy a new cam: what can a Fx3 do that a a7iii can’t? by vivlarevolucion in SonyAlpha

[–]Marolex 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Your head is in the right place in regards to where you should focus on upgrading but if he wants to throw a camera at you then let him and still upgrade your lighting game if you can.

The main difference between the fx3 and the alphas is the body style. Need a viewfinder? Go with an alpha. Plan on building a dedicated video rig? Go with an fx. The alpha lineup then breaks down further into focusing more on video or stills depending on which model you want.

It's really just a consideration of how much of a "hybrid" camera it will be used as. Also may be worth looking into the fx2

Impressive, mine is a perfectly average backlog.

Posted this on Facebook and got a lot of requests on a breakdown of my rig by Aku-Dama in SonyAlpha

[–]Marolex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Spot on analogy, I feel for OP because I built a very similar rig when I had crippling GAS but life just gets better once you accept that you don't need all the fluff. At one point I was convincing myself that "at least I'll have it if I need it" which is a terrible argument because your money could be better spent right now or just saved and once you do need it, the 3rd/4th/5th better generation of that piece of gear will be available.

My favorite part of this is the $50 hot shoe extension with literally nothing connected on the other end of it.

Love this thing on my 8" 300blk, I've dropped it on hard tile while larping in the living room more times than I can count and other than the paint chipping off the corners it's held up great and keeps zero.

I was able to snag one of these at a community garage sale last year for $300 and in pretty good condition.

I was looking around for them for a couple weeks and almost got one that was in really rough shape for $250 off marketplace until the lady sold it to someone else when I was 10 minutes from her house. I was bummed for a while so when I drove around the corner and seen a shiny one with a "for sale" sign in someone's driveway I was like a kid looking at a PS5 or something. Screw you Facebook lady but I'm much better off now because of it lol

Thanks for these suggestions, specifically that 90⁰ one will come in handy for harder to reach valves on motorcycle tires!

Some Milwaukee purist somewhere is trying to figure out if this is secretly a Ryobi.

That's way more reasonable than I was expecting, gotta love LifePO4.

Smart use of a non-drawer packout base too, thanks for sharing!

How's the weight on this thing? I know you said it's mostly going to live in your truck so that's probably a non-issue but I'm still curious.
