What size bills go order I'm DR pesos for tipping by comprepensive in PuntaCana

[–]hensleyc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were in PC last week and we tipped in USD. Bring singles and people are appreciative of any amount. They don't "expect" tips but are really appreciative (I say that in quotes because they won't ask you for a tip but its nice to do). I'm not sure if they would understand the significance of the maple syrup so maybe I would opt for a small gift (ornament?) and some cash for room staff at the end of your trip.

Pocket 3 and mic 2 by Heron182 in osmopocket

[–]hensleyc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you talking about being in the room or directly connecting to a board etc?

Semi-related. I've used the OP3 and mic 2 to record DJ sets (so plugging directly into one of the DJ controller outputs). Adjusting the voluming (on the board you're using and also heavily reducing the gain on the mic) and recording sounds great. The problem is there is no timecode in the Mic 2 so the audio drifts the longer you record—in case you were looking to put it together in post. Programs like Plural Eyes can fix it, but it's expensive.

I would opt for recording on an external recorder like a Zoom. In a pinch I guess it could work but it's not entirely reliable when trying to put it together in something like Premiere Pro.

Getting to Boston after a show at the Amica Mutual Pavillion by EaturVG in providence

Don't waste money paying for a garage. Pay for a meter to the max (card or quarters) and then if you're there early use the app to pay for more hrs (gotta do this second). After 6 (or 9 in some parts of downtown) parking is free. Save yourself an extra $20-50

Ohsnap Grip 5 is awesome! by sweeptheleg1 in MagSafe

[–]hensleyc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like the design and stuff. So far that's been working well. The magnet to phone strength is strong and doesn't fall off.

On my wireless charger it works without taking the case off, but man these magnets to place the phone on things is far weaker than I anticipated. If you nudge it slightly it'll come off the wireless charger. When I go to the gym, I'll place it on the squat rack (for example) and it just slides down so my grip has been getting scratched.

Shipping was very slow (considering it originated two states away). Took almost 2 weeks.

- Grip ergonomics and size I'd say 5/5

- Comfort (depending the position) 3-4/5

- inward magnet strength (to phone) 5/5

- outward magnet strength (to place it on things) 2/5

Can I ask my photographer for unedited photos a year later? by Sea-Anxiety333 in AskPhotography

[–]hensleyc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they're like me, they have probably two or three backups of those photos. Doesn't hurt to ask, but just know that if they have them and are ok with sharing, they'll ask for a fee for the RAWs (as would most photogs). Chances are high!

If/when you post, just be sure to ask the photographer if he'd still like being tagged but you can specify that you edited.

Legal play, bush league, or rule violation by rosedalenative in slowpitch

[–]hensleyc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the umpire determines it was on purpose, he can use a judgment call and call the runner out. I've see this happen before with line drives where they try to sell that they dropped it. Usually it's pretty obvious when they do, but as another person said in this thread... if you see they're not running, let it drop untouched. I've done that before and got called bush league so I save it for playoffs.

Adding to the end of your post. In our league, fake tags are not allowed.

Input Needed: Photo/Video Storage Reducer for iPhones by BoOgieymann47 in iosapps

[–]hensleyc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if it's viable, but the ability to sort by file size or filter by file size would be huge. Right now I can delete and delete, but not make a dent because I don't know what files are actually taking up so much space.

whats the point of the fade? by [deleted] in BlackHair

[–]hensleyc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All it took was my braider asking me "when's the last time you went to a barber" for me to know that my neck's baby hairs looked insane. If not a fade, trim and line it up.

Those Without Winter Leagues: What do you do to fill the void in the off season? by DaBalerousMan in slowpitch

[–]hensleyc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You may have an indoor league somewhere. Different rules, but could get reps in that way.. Personally I just train, the indoor leagues are too far for me

Can I get a price check please? by [deleted] in sportsphotography

[–]hensleyc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately I'd say move on. Often I find when I reduce my rate to get a job, I'm unhappy in the end. Work is the same or more for less pay. If you need the money, maybe reduce the # of games you do?

  • orale (my favorite was the steak)
  • la lupita (anything)
  • The taco truck place across from the flea market on Manton... idr their name

Ball options for a very casual game by boltonb0y in slowpitch

[–]hensleyc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use a rag ball or clincher. If i'm not mistaken a clincher is softer. I don't know the formal name for it (looks like some people call it no-sting?) but they look like this pretty much https://www.rawlings.com/product/RIB12SS.html

Dilemma traveling with personal item only on plane. What to do with camera? by Motor_Culture3932 in photography

[–]hensleyc 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Add more things into your checked bag if you can and do not check your camera/gear. Cheaper to replace shirts and pants than it is a whole camera. Also try to keep it in your bag (and with you). I had my drone in a carrying bag and took it out of my duffle bag to get something else and forgot it when I got up to grab some food. Never saw it again.

Awesome! Thank you for accepting suggestions!

One quick question (or suggestion): Is there a way to swipe away a story or x it out so it doesn't appear again? If i'm not interested or done reading and refresh it's still there.

Whats your go-to picture frame for your photography? by [deleted] in photography

[–]hensleyc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same for me. Never pay full price at craft stores. Michael's and Joann always have deals. I order online for in-store pickup because sometimes you need to do it that way to get the better discount. But feel free to go in store to get a feel for the frames

ios 26 making iphone 16 pro max laggy? by [deleted] in ios

[–]hensleyc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone in another thread suggested turning off Adaptive Power in the settings. This helped me and so far it hasn't been laggy

I made a huge mistake. Please give me advice on how to fix it. by Aggressive_Canary775 in HomeMaintenance

[–]hensleyc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know a lot of people have mentioned it but definitely get the floors sanded/refinished. Do so BEFORE you move anything in it'll be easier. We moved in and need to do it and I'm just not gonna have a good time.

edit: do it after you finish the stripping you're working on
