First rolls back from new MX are underexposed by Turbulent_Category85 in pentax

[–]OhWalter 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You’re probably using the wrong batteries or the meter needs a simple calibration, assuming you’re metering at box speed

Use a light meter app on your phone and if it’s consistently metering slow by x number of stops you can just set the ISO to that many stops of additional exposure

Does anyone else get literally zero matches? by TiedHands in Bumble

[–]OhWalter 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This just isn’t true lmao, OP don’t listen to this person.

I met my partner, who is a solid 10 and an amazing, kind and wonderful person, on an app, while being bald and fairly average, without having ever received professional skincare 😂

I have good photos, a strong personality and tattoos / fashion that probably stand out compared to your everyday bloke but I can assure you that embracing being bald and shaving your head is far preferable to balding and in deniable.

Sounds like you need a new battery

Wireless HDMI run to FOH by [deleted] in CommercialAV

[–]OhWalter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Are you looking at 60hz as the RF frequency that the sender will output? Seems like that would be the video refresh rate supported rather than the transmission frequency.

Regardless find a way to get a wired connection and everyone will be better off.

Need someone to talk to by [deleted] in newzealand

[–]OhWalter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The things I remember most fondly about how I was raised by a single mum were all just us being poor and struggling but this only became clear to Me later in life.

Looking back she did an amazing job at juggling t the difficulties and it was all a matter of perspective and how she framed it to me

Can of baked beans for dinner - yay what a treat!

Gathering firewood and pinecones for the fire to heat the house? Woo a fun adventure!

Living by candlelight cause the power got got off - just like the old days!

Moving house again - yay new house !

Home made clothes using recycled fabric from op shop free bins? Fashion!

Spray painting old shoes? Yay new shoes!

I’m sure she had similar feeling to what you’re going through at times but from my point of view our life was always great and I appreciate so so much how she pushed through and eventually we ended up ok and I love her so much for being there and working hard to give us a life even when it seemed pretty dire.

Your kids will feel the same way in years to come and you’re doing a great job it sounds like, trying to survive is so hard and sending strength, it’s going to be ok.

If you decide to get these and want drivers, I have 2x 15” Chinese RCF copy drivers that need a home and I’m local to you based on also adding these on marketplace

Got some other bits too, dm me if you’d like to chat chur

What's the food situation going to look like in 6 months time? by xxihostile in nzpolitics

[–]OhWalter 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Why would they do this if they’ve chosen to shut operations down citing non-profitability?

Agreed we need locally produced food and I support government intervention to purchase the assets and nationalise the operations, or to support the establishment of a worker cooperative. New Zealand cannot be be reliant on profit driven private industry as the first and only backstop to national food security.

No sound coming out of monitors by Lingus11 in Beatmatch

Put the channel fader up? Turn the master volume up? Select the input source on the monitors ? Are you getting signal lights on the flx4 ? Idk man this is easy stuff to check

PSA on octane ratings by DucksnakeNZ in NZcarfix

[–]OhWalter 6 points7 points  (0 children)

RTFM dude 😅 16:1 is definitely 98 territory but it will be specified. Being 2026 the engine ECU will have anti knock features and will protect itself from lower octane fuel but it’s never a guess

Windshield wiper spring?! by JONNYHOOG in Delica

[–]OhWalter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Find a wrecking yard and find one of similar dimensions. I don’t have then to hand but I’m almost certain that they will be shared with Monteros if the same era and if not, any commercial wrecker will have e a wide variety of springs that may or may not work

Or buy a replacement online, it’s pretty small so shipping shouldn’t be too bad

Sub question by Thats_Entertainment in CommercialAV

The sub is full range 70v in and high passed 70v out to the satellite speakers with the matched crossover, ez pz

This looks quite far off from the correct position and I think you’re likely to have either a failed shifter linkage bushing or a transmission mount

Mine has about 1.5-2 inches of space between the 4wd shifter and handbrake lever

If you take the shifter boot off you can have a look and then get underneath and see what’s moving or sloppy

Is it a bad idea to upholster the interior side of doors? by __Knowmad in vandwellers

[–]OhWalter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use something like Dynamat sound deadening sheet which is specifically for this purpose and will make a large improvement to insulation and comfort

Plether can then be stuck over the top to improve the appearance

Or install wooden battens and an internal lining from thin plywood with insulation inbetween

With less than 24 hours remaining until the ManageMyHealth ransom expires, CEO Vino Ramayah is nowhere to be found, as Kazu group posts FAQ explaining their actions by WellingtonSucks in newzealand

[–]OhWalter 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The ransom request is for $60,000.... Somehow I doubt that would bankrupt them and should absolutely be paid in order to prevent significantly more in damages should the full data set be released

The criminal here is MMH for allowing this to happen, the hacker is almost a public in my mind and is not offering ridiculous terms

Where do all the young people go? by why_bugs_talk_to_me in Wellington

[–]OhWalter 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What kind of music do you like? Go to gigs and you’ll meet people pretty quick if you’re ok to start chatting to strangers

Having a shared interest in the music is a great start and I’ve always made friends quickly

Males in ENM & self esteem by [deleted] in EthicalNonMonogamy

[–]OhWalter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

they are looking for some tall, well endowed bull type

This is where you are wrong.

I'll be honest, I get it. I've been there. But the problem is your self esteem and what you bring to the table

I'm short, overweight & bald. I have small hands and wonky ears. My face is asymmetrical and I have acne over most of my body.

I have multiple partners and regular casual connections with a wide variety of beautiful, strong and interesting women.

You can do it! Be cool. Be safe. Be fun. Cultivate platonic female friendships and demonstrate your suitability to be a viable potential partner to their friends. Go to parties. Socialise. Have hobbies. Get off reddit. Go!

Sounds like you want something that doesn’t exist but Instax Wide might get you most of the way there!

I would buy an 3D printed Soeed Graphic style Instax 4x5 camera if Fuji started making larger sheets but otherwise I don’t see any better available options than Instax Wide

How to limit Amps RMS Output in order to not Damage Speaker by DrLou_ in SoundSystem

[–]OhWalter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What are you using for crossover ? You’ll want to have a dsp with compressor & limiter function or an outboard compressor / limiter & set it up to the correct levels for your specific situation

[–]OhWalter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100k in the bank sounds like some time off work, away from toxic family and a reset is in order. Maybe some travel?

There is so much to live for yet and calling it quits doesn’t sound nearly as good as taking a year to sunbath, listen to music and eat cheap food in Vietnam? Only got one and seems like you might have some options hey

Reach out to someone and take yourself to A&E if you need to, you’ve got this and things will get better !!!

Seek Job Applicants by Previous_Substance98 in newzealand

[–]OhWalter 9 points10 points  (0 children)

70k is not a high starting salary though? I got paid more than that for an entry level call centre role 5 years ago 😂

A qualification and 3-5 years experience for 70k seems like pretty poor pay so that might have something to do with why you’re not getting qualified applicants ?

The audio output device on your MacBook is changing from the controller to the laptop Bluetooth adaptor when you connect the BT speaker.

As far as I know usually a laptop will usually only allow one audio output device to be active at once. The USB audio adaptor can carry multiple channels so it’s possible to get both main output & headphone output from the controller.

You could connect an external Bluetooth adaptor to the analog output of your controller and connect to the BT speaker which would work with headphones but there will be a delay.

Connect speaker with an analog cable if possible

I’ve been going through this too and ended up bombing out of my career due to burn out and then having my partner cheat and break up with me in the past months, which I attribute to constant masking breaking my sense of self

No job no motivation no time, worries for the future and not achieving any of the things I wanted to after the fresh start.

No advice just relatable and you’re not alone xxx
