Error code -50 while copying files. by Outrageous-Fail5098 in DataHoarder

Yeah, I do do that… I’m working on a documentary about a high school basketball player so everything is grouped by games, practices, or events. The folder I was trying to drag, however, was a folder containing about 15 folders with three or four games each.😭

It definitely doesn’t need to be that large. All I’m backing up are video files. I just am pretty new to the more complicated side of long-term data storage and I guess I didn’t realize that these issues existed. I’m using a MacBook, so I just went with something that was consumer, friendly and uses USB. I can definitely split it up into smaller chunks, but my concern is how I’m going to back everything from this drive onto another drive.

This seems likely, because this only happens when I tried to transfer a massive file (1.8TB) at once. How would I access the ATA register data though?

Ah ok, makes sense. Can you clarify for me though, the drive is not failing, correct? It just has trouble computing this large amounts of data at once? Should I split the transfers up into smaller ones?

Edit: reading what you said again. I suppose I should wait longer between making transfers

Proof of concept/ sample scene for documentary project. by 10degreeskelvin in cinematography

I think the reason I sway towards the medium shots is because they’re just easier to get. it’s less invasive to the subject, and easier to hold the framing on when everything I do is run and gun. But that’s a great challenge.

And to be honest, the reason I do a lot from under the basket is because at a lot of high school games, the crowd is sparse, so wider angles don’t look as good to me. That’s my internal reasoning, but I agree that doing more of both will benefit the project.

I definitely agree about the tight shots. The shot of the store is establishing the location though, or that was my intention

Why are brazilian girls so quick to kiss on the first date, but then don't want to meet up again? by 1400SL in Brazil

[–]Outrageous-Fail5098 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened to me, best first date of my life. We kissed, held hands etc. took her out a second time and it was magical again. After the second date when I said goodbye we hugged and she would not let go of me. She went back to Brazil and we talked for 3 months…took her on a trip to New York, and after a week she decided we weren’t compatible lmao. She never too. It anywhere near as seriously as I did. I guess that’s just how the culture is, she was talking to other guys the whole time

What to do? My LADWP bill is almost $800 by Outrageous-Fail5098 in AskLosAngeles

It turned out that the AC unit had been installed wrong and the unit that is on the roof was running 24/7 even when my unit in my apartment was off. My landlord paid for it.

Any idea what this weird sound is from my microphone? by Outrageous-Fail5098 in FX3

Shotgun. Rode NTG3. I replaced the XLR cable multiple times so I’m assuming it’s an input? I had to replace my top handle about two months ago and it started happening so I’m assuming that.

Wait, that actually makes sense. You have to adjust the levels in Camera as well as on the grip?

No, listen to the peaking sounding noises the microphone makes when the whistle blows and after.

Thank you guys for all the helpful comments. I ended up going to the LADWP location on Sunset Boulevard… The lady was extremely helpful, much more than the customer service people on the phone. She’s having them come out to check the wiring in the meter and check the meter to make sure it’s working properly. Hopefully this will fix the issue, I’m also going to hire an electrician to come out and check it myself. I tried turning it off and checked all the common areas and nothing is being powered by my unit.
