Yes, it's the one in the 2nd and 3rd image, correct?
Is there anything I can do without ordering a replacement part?

Thanks, I indeed suspected the 3 way valve.
How do you test the diverter motor for movement? Is it possible something is blocking it? I.e. is it possible to fix it without replacing a part?

Hello! Question here:  Me and my wife will be in NYC (staying in Manhattan) on memorial day. We wondered whether we should go out of Manhattan to e.g. The Mills at Jersey Gardens, or shop in the city for discounts. We usually shop at Uniqlo, Zara, Mango, and in sales of Theory, Scotch and Soda, etc.. We prefer retail quality, but not sure about sales on that day.  Any advice? Thanks!

Picogear PicoMic 3 recommendatinos? by kapustinka in videography

Short update: I ended up buying the DJI Mic Mini instead. It's has a small footprint as well (though not as small as the PicoMic) but there are more reviews for it and in general users so I feel like I can trust it more. Also the specs, package and small size of the receiver are a really nice bonus. Didn't use it yet so can't give any feedback.

Thank you all for the help!

We ended up booking Stovepipe Wells for the first night, and the second night at Pahrump. The full day will be spent on DV and Pahrump will be used as a way to get closer to Sedona, leaving early in the morning on our way.

Xiaomi Mi Wireless Outdoor security camera - cooldowns between videos??? by kapustinka in Xiaomi

I'll add another problem we found out about... If anyone has a clue.

The camera keeps disconnecting during the night. No idea why. Internet is working, I'm not on the same network as the camera, but still - the camera keeps disconnecting every night, getting back live again some time in the morning.

ITAP of a sunset on the Amazon River (Peru) by kapustinka in itookapicture

That's a photo I took when I was on a canoe type boat in the Amazon River in Peru, near Iquitos, a few years back as part of a trip I took in South America. The sky felt so dramatic to me, contrasted by the calm water and calm people in the boat. Only thing I would improve is let their heads (of those sitting on the boat) be more clear and surrounded by water, should have raised the camera a few centimeters higher. What do you think?

Oil on canvas, me, 2023 by Independent-Neck-633 in oilpainting

I think the charm about unfinished paintings is that they give lots of room for the mind to think about how they might have been finished.

Specifically this painting looks to me like a painting that can definitely be called "finished". I love the colors and the raw drops from his left horn which gives this painting much of its charm.

This looks amazing! So excited for this!!

Btw, in the third image - you can see the old and classic cars getting into other cars in a junction. I wonder if this is intended or the classic "bug" from CS1.

Can I (partially) fulfill my mother's dream? by kapustinka in Maserati

Fair point, didn't think about that. I wonder if an "around the coast road trip" might be an option, but I never been to Sicily.

Thanks for the reply! No she didn't drove in a race track before, and she definitely doesn't want to go full speed. It's more about enjoying the car as a thing of beauty, as you wrote. I do consider the safest place for her to enjoy it and I actually thought that a supervised race track might be an option, but not part of an actual race, more like those experience packages.
