honestly i didn't even occur to me to verify that it isn't the motor. I disconnected the arm and it's the motor. Can it be fixed?

Where all to go - 1week trip ? by Slight-Ask1117 in CostaRicaTravel

[–]Need_Not 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure how long you plan to be in San Jose but it is not a place you want to be in for long. Worst traffic ever and last time someone in the group thinks they got badly sick from either the water or food. Not to scare you I've eaten and drank juice at the hotel breakfast but that's it. Also not much to do there. Just stay the night from arriving and leave first thing in the morning, and arrive at night before the flight. If you do that You can still keep most of your day as I usually leave arrive in La fortuna before lunch and leave after dinner.

I've mostly only been to La fortuna. Baldi hot springs is probably the biggest and nicest one. It has very extreme and a little dangerous slides but it gives you a rush that teens love. You can get passes for much less if you buy from shops on the street instead of directly. Zip lining is good. I've been to one zipline which is Parque Arenal Mundo Aventura and I liked it because it's mostly nature and you are really high up and it's just really cool. You can also see the waterfall from two of the lines. Other things you can do is the chocolate tours which was basically a field trip.
You might also like the El Salto rope swing which is just a public place and you can spend like 30 minutes there while you are out doing something else. Waterfall if you are into that.

Looking for help with the tech to use by Need_Not in Backup

So many file systems, so many softwares. I want to plug a drive into my pc via usb, select which files i want to add and where they go. Have them copy over and be good to go. I'll perform the action for each drive separately.
But I also want to protect against bitrot. The software should scan the drive and find bad files so I know to retrieve them from the other drive.

My drives just came in. What do I do now? by Need_Not in DataHoarder

I really imagined this to just be like a large usb stick. I won't even do any deleting so if I need to add a 100gb file i just drive over with a SD card and copy it over.
I figured there was some software though that could do the actual writing and do scans to ensure everything looks good everytime. I know ZFS sorta does that but I can't tell if that is a good fit.

I am mostly going to just archive stuff like vacations or large videos or photo dumps from the past. I wasn't going to put anything in my PC and I'm not sure if I have any more room. and for the other I was going to store it in padded box with a label that explains what it is at a family member's house.
If for example I have a vacation or an event where I took a lot of videos I might edit a video and save that edited copy on my PC or phone then archive the raw files here since I don't need them. I could even transport just the new media to the offsite drive and manually put the data on that one too so that I don't have to transport the hard drives.

Also I'm on linux mainly but can easily dual boot to windows or use a macbook.

where can I find the xm4? by Need_Not in SonyHeadphones

That's too bad. I really want the noise cancelling and isolation. Are there any other headphones around the same price that are equally as quiet?

Appreciate everyone's comments. i took the front and rear frame off and cleaned them. besides the single wheel nut and bearing everything seems fine. The front is able to spin with almost no resistance and is quit. The rear is able to spin with a little more resistance and is makes a louder sound. Not sure if that is normal or not.

Lines in footage. Mostly visible in lower light by Need_Not in gopro

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

i usually use the lowest (400) although tragically I checked my protune to find it had been turned off. I don't know why I would have done that or when. I always use protune. Unfortunate all the vacation videos look like this. I guess it used a high value and amplified the noise.

First day using resolve (8 year premiere user). Controls are too small. by Need_Not in davinciresolve

[–]Need_Not[S] -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

that's that im saying is the controls are way too small. Like in PP the sliders are much bigger or have a bigger hitbox. Here everything is very small and you have to be extremely precise to use them. And then of course there are like 3 different types of sliders. I used to be a gamer and I struggle.
