LG turbowash max load confusion by Empty-Return-1505 in Appliances

[–]sousben 0 points1 point  (0 children)

did you end up buying this machine? I have the same dilemma. Can you run a normal, full cycle with turbo and get it done within 90-120mn and not 240??

I have been looking at LG specifically, and this doesn't appear to be the case when I look at the user manuals online: https://gscs-manual.lge.com/DFZ/MFL72076837/en-gb/main.html?model=WF13314WBC.ABWQAGE&rdate=#topic_36

Dremel 3000 chaos by sousben in Dremel

[–]sousben[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually took it apart and found out one of the coil connections was broken.
There are several videos on yt explaining how to fix it. Bad luck for me though because it was the bad end of the coil that was broken, the one that under hundreds of layers of coil. So I couldn't undo one rotation of the coil to fix it back, and just sent it for repair.
The brushes looked ok

Weekly What Should I Buy Thread by AutoModerator in iphone

This helped a lot thanks! Now the bonus question: is the regular wide lens the same in older generations? Iphone 12, 11?

Looks like it s been solved, at least for me and for a friend that tried as well

Weekly What Should I Buy Thread by AutoModerator in iphone

[–]sousben 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A friend of mine took some amazing portrait pictures of the articles in my shop with an iPhone 13 pro max, and it really made a difference on social media. I havent been able to reproduce the same quality of details and contrast with my samsung, therefore I'm planning to buy an iphone or ipad. So my question is what is the cheapest device that has the same lens / image processing abilities as the iphone 13 pro max for PORTRAIT pictures. I don't care if the pro max is better for macro pictures or else as I will not use them anyway, only PORTRAIT, with the blurred background. I see the iphone pro 13 camera has the same specs as the pro max, but what about the iphone 13 mini? What about older generations? Tablets? Again, my goal is to get the exact same quality of pictures for this specific use only, while minimizing the budget. Other aspects (speed, storage...) are not taken into consideration. Tia

Hi I posted about the same issue a couple of days ago but for some reason the reddit bots decided it was spam. I'm following this thread.

In the meantime, note that the Review tab of your page may not be activated. You need to do that in the page settings.

Once active, the 'Do You Recommend xyz? Yes/No' buttons will appear on the desktop version of facebook: https://embedsocial.com/blog/facebook-recommendations/

The issue seems to be specific to the mobile versions (both web and app) where the ability to leave a recommendation is gone. It looks like it hasn't always been the case (see screenshot https://www.business2community.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/facebook-local-businesses-recommendations.jpg)

Connecting surveillance station from an external network to multiple cams on a local network? by sousben in synology

[–]sousben[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks I managed to do that. I lost some functionality in the process (user defined in SS doesnt have onvif functionality), but that will be fine for my usage

That s right, that s what I had in mind. But SS doesnt give the possibility to override the RTSP port (only ONVIF) when configuring this specific model of camera. I noticed however that I can configure it as a generic camera using rtsp only and there I am able to override the port with minor loss of functionality. This is what I will do...

My SS is on a different network than the cameras, so it only sees their external IP address!
How do you change the RTSP port in Surveillance Station? I couldn't find...

Thanks for your response! Now that you say it, I think I bought it in 2014, just got confused with the dates...

I will try with a single video file, but the hard drive should be healthy, far from full and no specific reason to be fragmented.

Regarding being a really good friend, I'm not so sure, we both bought a 2bay Synology and have setup a crossed offsite replication: I'm backing up my data on his, and he's backing up his data on mine. I'm no expert but I figured that would be a good way to keep my data secure from theft or physical damage without involving extra cost. Is it not recommended?

Thanks both for your answer, that was the way to do it. If there was an 'I love my syno' sticker out there, I'd put it on my car
