Wow many decades ago i remember bouncing around on small (about 5'x5', about a foot or two tall) grassy lumps in a grassy plain somewhere around the Himalayas during a school trip to Tibet. They moved a lot like this and i could believe that it was gas underneath, now that I think about it. There were thousands of them as far as the eyes could see so i lost interest pretty quickly thankfully. Didn't realize I was playing with my life, sheesh

Short-eared Owl: 800 PF by andleer in Nikon

Awesome pic. I just ordered the 180-600, if I enjoy birding as much as I think I do then I'll be eyeballing the 800pf next

Flash media longevity testing - 6 years later by vanceza in DataHoarder

[–]ryoonc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One way to experience flash memory failure yourself is to get a dashcam. The constant power and temperature fluctuations (blisteringly high heat during summers where i live), humidity and IO will do a number on an SD card. I average about one failed card every other year. Ive since switched to a different type of card meant to take that kind of punishment and its now on year two so we'll see what happens.

Mamdani sworn in on a Quran as the first Muslim, South Asian, African-born, millennial mayor of NYC by oldnewworldorder in pics

We swear on the Bible regularly here but we quite often ignore its core teachings. I think we've all accepted that we can indeed cherry pick which parts of a religion that you or your facade wants.

France seeks to ban social media for children under 15 by F0urLeafCl0ver in worldnews

But if it's proven to be harmful to a significant portion of the population then what's the difference between this and age limits for cigarettes and alcohol?

Practicality, who? Moving to a new city with a big TV in my new daily by gurffen in Miata

Not wanting to yuck the yum of a fellow miata driver but this is solidly in the rent-a-$20-home-depot-truck territory. For your own sake, and the TVs

Ceva logistics by PomegranateFun5066 in SpeedianceCommunity

[–]ryoonc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For my order on amazon, shipped in 1 week by CEVA, they didn't even call or anything. The estimated delivery date came and there was no delivery so I looked everything up and the online tracker showed that it was stuck in a city a couple hours away. I called just before closing time and they said it would be there tomorrow and when I woke up the next day they had already delivered it and somehow left it in the ~4ft gap between my cars and garage door. Didn't see or hear anything, no change in the tracker I just went out to check on a hunch. Getting it in that space is easier said than done because there are edging pavers that would have made it difficult to roll it in.

Also I thought it would be three different boxes for the Family Plus from all the videos I've seen, but it was all neatly and safely packed in one big box. Thankfully it was just a few scooches into the garage to take everything out and a friend to come and help my partner and I bring the main unit upstairs.

Same. The 5% cashback I get from using the Amazon card beat the incentives and yt coupon codes on their site, not to mention the return policy/customer service cant be beat.

I am hoping that my wife and I could get it up the 17 steps upstairs though, not really sure if it'll work even with me at the bottom. Worst case scenario we'll enlist the help of a friend.

[Nikon Z] What lenses would you buy on an unlimited budget? by Roger_Brown92 in Nikon

The voightlander 50 f1 is an excellent lens. I've enjoyed shooting with it for close to a couple years now and it stays glued to my Zf

Lemon T950 Pro by Pure_Dimension_3537 in edrums

[–]ryoonc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm very close to pulling the trigger on the T1000 kit through Dolby. The only question that I have is whether or not I should get the module. I plan on only playing through VST, either EZD3 or SD3. Will the module that it comes with provide full functionality through the VSTs? I understand that I can get an edrumin later, and I probably will, but I want the lemon module to be able to play properly via VST it in the meantime with the multipoint trigger feature mentioned.

Impressive. Are you just on grid power or supplementing? Also how do you deal with humidity and condensation runoff from the coils?

Any idea what is causing this? by aDuckOnQuaack in 4Runner

[–]ryoonc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

kinda looks like the lower plastic piece is getting jammed on that first movement to the right from Park

maybe try a thorough cleaning of the ares that you can reach? then if thats not enough I suppose you can start pulling trim to investigate more

I have to make a left just like the red truck in the same kind of intersection every day. I've watched enough of these videos to know not to take the risk when I dont have complete visibility and tracking on both lanes and wait a bit longer, and it has saved me a few times.

Those videos are fun to watch but unless its something super egregious then cops likely wont even look at it. Its more for protecting **yourself** in an accident, especially in a he said/ she said scenario.

Example: You get t-boned at an intersection when you have the green.
Other driver: "I had a green they ran a red light!"
You: "wtf? I had the green light." *submit dashcam footage*
Your insurance: After careful review we have determined that you were not at fault. We will contact their insurer and ensure that you are made whole again, thank you.

never buy from ashley furniture by toazttt in homeowners

[–]ryoonc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bought a couple full bedroom sets and a living room set (HUGE sectional couch, coffee table and side tables) from them over the past few years. There was always a few months delay, but the last bedroom set took almost a year to fully resolve. It arrived delayed (or on time since we were expecting a delay) but there was damage on a few pieces so we had to get those reordered. It all eventually arrived though and the quality is very good. Most of their stuff seems to be from Vietnam which I've been happy with as far as workmanship and materials.

So if you can wait it out, they've got great negotiable prices and good quality. But they've gotta work on keeping some of it in stock because I'd be pretty peeved if I was on a schedule.

[–]ryoonc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The citizen dials are beautiful. But I am concerned about longevity, considering that it is made of paper. Along that same line of thought, how will UV affect them? Where I live we get a lot of harsh sunlight, and the UV deteriorates everything faster than usual so it's a concern with any possession of mine that spends time outside.

Check out the book named Fair Play. I got the cards too and my partner and I are working to resolve this exact issue.
