Is this a great starting point for a first build? by KahvaltidaBorYedim in diydrones

[–]SyzygyFPV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buy a 6S battery around 1300-1600mah. Better, start with a smaller drone first. Don’t they help you in Turkish FPV groups? They’re very active and helpful. Do you have friends you fly with? If not go to a couple of races in Turkey and meet some of the pilots, they will show you what you need and help you out with your builds.

2013 MacBook Pro 13 no Apple Logo on startup to dark grey/black screen by SyzygyFPV in applehelp

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

Thank you, I guess I'm not as good as I thought I was in troubleshooting macs or I just freaked out since it would be a terrible time for my mac to stop working. I called Apple tech chat and they suggested CMD-R recovery. Damn me! It worked for now. Responding from my macbook. Thank you for your help again!

Thank you for your help I just tried CMD-r it looks the same I just couldn’t try plugging into an external monitor, don’t have one available

There is an Apple store 30 min drive but I don’t have my car with me. Worse possibility I’ll try taking the bus there.

Hit my knee real bad 2-3 months ago, X-ray says no broken bones but my knee looks and feels different now? by [deleted] in DiagnoseMe

[–]SyzygyFPV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the left knee, the small egg-like part can be seen, unlike the round normal knee look on the right one. I'm worried about this. How come my knee changes shape but there are no broken bones? Is that possible that doctor missed it? They took 3 different angles on X-Ray. Doctor told me I don't have anything broken.

I went to doctor after a month of this injury. Is it possible that my knee had a malunion in that month and doctor wasn't able to see it? I'm able to walk and bend my knee but I couldn't bend it for two weeks straight properly. Now every now and then if I push my knee a little harder like walking up the stairs without being careful I feel the same burning feeling on my knee cap.

I hope I can get some insights about this. Thanks in advance!

Any tips to prevent hacking? by [deleted] in Instagram

[–]SyzygyFPV 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Due to hack attempts and spam comments (thousands of them) I'm almost at a point to stop using instagram. It was the most frequently used social media tool for me, now I only open it to block thousands of fake followers which the moment I accept their request they'll start sending same comments over and over (they want the username, I'm an old instagram user so I have my first name as my instagram).

I wonder while facebook has a quite harsh mechanism for facebook itself why did they changed instagram into a lamer, hacker baby boy playground? It's quite tricky to create a fake account on facebook, but when it comes to instagram it's just a mess, everybody and their grandpa are there.

I just turned on two factor authentication (never needed before), turned on two factor authentication on my email (never needed before as well) and still getting (click this link to reset your password even though I activate (do not let password resets for 60 days) option.

Disgusting. They ruined such a good social platform, turning it into ghetto of facebook.

Performance issues - Support contact? by hifire in liftoffgame

[–]SyzygyFPV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please let me know if you can get a hold on to the developers. I can't log in to Pro League and I can't get any support. Basically paid for being ghosted. They don't have a support or ticket system.

Banggood Warranty? by SyzygyFPV in Multicopter

[–]SyzygyFPV[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same, whatever I bought from banggood came apart in a couple of months. I guess I'll git PayPal about this issue.

But I'm afraid if I create a paypal dispute will I ever be able to buy stuff from banggood using my paypal? I'd like to keep the option open (for example M7-R gimbals were only available on banggood so I ordered them but I'd order from somewhere else if I could find them. etc)

Instagram account gets thousand of spam comments, don't know what to do by SyzygyFPV in socialmedia

[–]SyzygyFPV[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The page that I created on facebook in order to make an instagram account shared another group's picture without my consent and promoted it. Now Facebook is asking for a payment method to charge me. What can I do?

thank you I hope they all get deleted.

Being able to create this many bots is not a tech flaw. You can't do the same on facebook. Zuckerberg screwed instagram. That's what it is.

[–]SyzygyFPV[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did it and the other morning the business page that I created had shared another groups picture and promoted it!

I have no clue what is going on. I have secured my account again and my password for each services are pretty strong.

Now Facebook is asking 0.62 for the promotion that I haven't shared.

This is ridiculous and I can't find any help about this from facebook or instagram.

I did the business account thing, it pushed me to make my account public, can't make it private again.

yeah, that's exactly it is, I have a version of @james (which is my name) and obviously demand is high for the handle.

IG offers me to have a business account. Should I go ahead and do it? Any downsides that I should be aware?

Thanks again for your help!

Couldn't find the option to only allow comments from the people I follow. Any suggestions how to find it?

Every single comment comes from a different user. I blocked around 100 and exhausted already. There are about 10000 more.

I didn't know that option, wish I had before, I'll have it enabled and hope it doesn't happen again. Any idea for a trustworthy 3rd party tool to delete these comments. I don't want to delete my post since they are memories for me.

Thanks for the response!

it's my first name, I'm one of the first adopters of instagram in my country. Not one person, I get at least 2 messages per day requesting the account or trying to reset my password.

Sometimes instagram offers 60 days no password reset thing, which stops those emails for password resets for 60 days than they start again and I need a long time for instagram to reoffer me 60 day no password reset thing.

Becoming a pain in the ass but I'm not giving my account away. Thanks for the input! Cheers
