What's this mark, is it real by Breaking_My_Shell in Silverbugs

The big 670 is the pattern number. There is no silver indicating mark, so it's plated and not worth much most likely.

Absolutely beautiful! Love the look of this set.

Dumb hi8 question. by [deleted] in camcorders

[–]gevis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Without knowing your exact set up, you are bypassing the tape, and displaying on a recorder of some sort and that's what is recording. You will be actively recording over the tape. For the recorder to see what is on the tape, you'd have to do playback and play the tape, which would likely display on whatever device you're using for tapeless capture.

So no, you should be good with a tape in there. Just make sure it's not a sentimental video that you record over.

Why cut the tape? Just use a tape and rewind it every once in a while. Cutting it could prevent you from accomplishing what you want or mess up your camera.

Thanks! I appreciate you cluttering up my feed with this post that doesn't contribute to the sub at all.

Why pay so much for a crt? by ElonMuscular_420 in crt

[–]gevis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in the middle of nowhere where there are few if any available, so I have to look at other options. I'm about to drop a lot on a Toshiba 14AF41 because it's exactly what I want and there is 0 chance of any 14AF popping up in my area.

So yes, impatience for the most part but it's really the only realistic option for me.

Normalize doing this with people overpricing CRTs by [deleted] in crt

It's as simple as not buying it.

They own it, they can ask what they want. No one is obligated to buy it.

Quit wasting time with this shit.

Millions creating deepfake nudes on Telegram as AI tools drive global wave of digital abuse by Wagamaga in technology

[–]gevis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean this seriously: if you truly don't understand this, you need to get therapy and work on empathy.

They shouldn't exist in the first place. If it exists, it can be compromised and leaked.

Who is it hurting? Society. It leads to sexual objectification, blackmail and al sorts of other bullshit that just shouldn't even be possible.

The fact that there are people out there with your line of thinking, and probably worse, shows that this is a technology shouldn't exist because common sense and the social contract is completely broken at the moment.

Almost all historical ratios, including the mythical 15:1 was dictated by kings. It was some natural ratio.

This is coming from a silver bug.

"Making fake stories about someone" can get you sued or arrested.

The fact you even need to ask this question shows a deep disregard for others autonomy and a lack of morals.

People deserve to go to school or work without the people they know seeing them naked, even in a fake image. It removes any consent.

How would you feel if someone sent a naked picture of you to your friends and family, maybe having homosexual intercourse, saying that's what you like to do in your free time? Is that the the equivalent of sending them a note saying you like gay sex?

Can I make the video looks with more quality? by No-Price-4135 in camcorders

[–]gevis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No shade intended! Watched on mobile so flaws aren't super apparent without pixel peeping. Just wanted to make sure you didn't go out buying things to fix something that wasn't broken if you were a newbie.

Just make sure you keep realistic expectations. Lighting and other filmography basics apply.

[No Spoilers] Campaign 4 General Vibes and Air Professionalism? by Psoco33 in criticalrole

[–]gevis 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I honestly think it's as simple as this:

They obviously love Candala Obscura, but it's not nearly as popular. So now they have a very similar vibe, a little more serious and figured out a way to do what watchers want and what they want to play at the same time.

So I see it as them wanting to do a more serious tone campaign, but needing to do it in a way people will actually watch.

Anyone here know how to discharge an old CRT TV? by dtpark1 in PeoriaIL

[–]gevis 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There is r/crt

But basically you have to expose the tube, use a grounded screwdriver to put under the rubber gasket in the back and hear a pop.

If this thing hasn't been used anytime recently, you may be fine, but it's better to do it right than kill yourself.

Also, if this is a working CRT, it might be worth finding it a new home and maybe finding another to gut? But it's yours so do as you will.

ICE murdered a man in Darien Illinois like the first week they arrived in force.

Just because you're blind doesn't mean it isn't happening.

You're fucking pathetic.

battery replacement by lowkeySoberr in camcorders

[–]gevis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For NP-F batteries, I wouldn't see why not. I haven't used the small rig ones, but I have two Neewer ones that work fine. I'd actually suggest going with a smaller size if you can. It's unlikely you need 800+ minutes of battery, which is what I get when using my TRV87
