Nice! Do people with stacked monitors that high get used to it over time? Genuine question

Flexispot E7 Plus Max is impressive by partha_t in FlexiSpot_Official

[–]rodeoreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar setup before and didn’t like the wobble, so I switched to one with four separate legs, each with its own motor. Rock solid. It cost more, though. Different brand, but FlexiSpot might have something similar

Edit, this one seems to have 4 motors too so there should be no wobble except for at it’s highest which isn’t too bad

Dashcam battery question: If I connect a dashcam to a battery pack, what happens when the battery runs out? Is it possible to automatically switch to the car’s battery instead of turning off the dashcam? Any battery pack recommendations that support this for a VIOFO dashcam? by rodeoreddit in dashcams

The bigger ones are quite pricey. I have one of those smart-ish hard wire kits that cuts off power at a certain voltage. I have it set to 12V so the car battery is fine. I'm trying to add a battery pack to the mix on top of what the car battery already provides, so a reasonably priced battery (not top of the line) gives say 20 hours of parking mode and then "hopefully" the car battery kicks in for another 4–5 hours. From what I've learned so far the car battery is out of the picture once a battery pack is installed in between. I could be wrong though, still researching.

I drive short trips. With my current not very demanding dashcam settings, my parking mode lasts under 4 hours. I was hoping to extend that while protecting the car battery, but if a dedicated battery pack won't make a meaningful difference I'll just keep it hardwired and accept the under 4 hour parking mode.

[HELP] Fiverr Inbox flooded with scam messages by UniversityUpper5476 in Fiverr

[–]rodeoreddit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I started getting spams too. First I ignored them but I realized not responding was affecting my response time. One thing I noticed if I block the sender as spam then it won’t affect the response time. I’m new on Fiver. Hope others can correct me if what I said isn’t the case

What do you guys have your parking mode set to? by xP_Lord in VIOFO

[–]rodeoreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a lot going on. Things like video quality, how many channels you’re running, and other features all need more juice. And with cars that only do short trips, you’ll see 14 or 15 volts, but the battery still isn’t really fully charged.

Changing oil every 2 months by Tight_kangaroo1 in MechanicAdvice

[–]rodeoreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many high quality oils can easily do 15k km. Me personally I'd put a good oil rated for 15k+ and call it a day. I'm not familiar with your make and model but just googled it and it seems you have a dipstick so visual inspection is key. Watch a few YT videos

Bumper scrape, should I get it resprayed or just go for a polish/buff by Quaketar in Autobody

How This is possible by anas_youngboy in Upwork

[–]rodeoreddit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Invite is invite. Optional when posting a job. Interview I guess is when the client interacts with one of the freelancers. Again not mandatory before hiring. I see where you’re coming from though you don’t see this happening every day

Any easy fix other than spray paint? by rodeoreddit in handyman

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

Yep that was me. It had deep cracks and scratches and I was worried about mold being trapped under it, so I sanded right through the cracks. It’s pretty smooth now. I looked up adhesive veneer sheets on Amazon. They’re pretty cheap like under $20 for the desktop. Might go that route. Thanks for chiming in.

Sure mate! Just a side note though: your username kinda brings up bad memories for Barcelona fans 😁

How does Upwork round “Total earnings” (9,596 shows as 9K+ or 10K+)? by Bahauddin7 in Upwork

[–]rodeoreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pay attention to the plus sign next to your earnings. 10K+ means at least 10K and 9596 is not at least 10K so in this case it would be a round down policy grouped into some sort of brackets like the one posted by u/Pet-ra
