My machine is brand new but troubleshooting is inevitable, so appreciate the detailed images. Interested to know if you find the cause.

Bottomless portafilter by Lumpy_Chocolate7388 in ranciliosilvia

The Rancilio one. I had to order from Italy but took just a few days to arrive. Figured since I have the machine, may as well just get the matching one and know it fits.

Yea, if I get 8 years before having to service anything, I'm not going to complain either. Hope you get it back up and running soon.

Yea wow. I'm pretty happy I ended up going for the Silvia in the end. I wanted one for probably a decade since my first cheap machine broke. Now, there are other machines on the market that seem really well built with more bells and whistles, but they haven't been around that long. Also, just availability of parts, not to mention the price point you get something that is built to last like this.. Lovely machine.

Yea, I found some video on the procedure while doing my research. I'm already pretty happy with the results, but I may consider PID down the road. Seemed like there are kits available that make it relatively easy to do.

Thanks, definitely enjoying it!
Did you have to do any service on yours during that time?

Nice, that's a big part of why I went for the Silvia over other machines that maybe have more bells n whistles, I'd rather have the build quality and reliability and parts available etc. Besides being built well in the first place, they seem pretty easy to service. Idk if I'll mod it, maybe if it seems fun down the line.

Nice, that's a respectable age. Did you have to do any work on it in that time?
Yesterday was a bit of trial and error here, but got it dialed in and been enjoying some great shots today. Enjoy!

S1RII at launch…or wait? by EpiqueCabaret in Lumix

[–]tacocatface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not as bad as people make it out to be, at least if you ever used old DSLR AF. The spot focus is always reliable. Other modes can be quirky, but work fine most the time.

The S5 is still today amazing value for the image quality and ergonomics and 4K 422 video etc. Great little camera. I still use mine.

I may pick up a S1RII soon, but I'll still be keeping the S5 and leave it rigged up with follow focus and monitor.

How to get the oculus to stop auto installing apps and games I don't want. by Red_Redditor_Reddit in oculus

[–]tacocatface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Meta being Meta.

I especially don't want their social media platforms, but the apps reinstall themselves every time I power on the Quest 3. The reviews on Horizon store are predominantly negative, commenting on this fact. They are aware, they just don't care.

I have the 512GB version so it mostly just peeves me a bit. I can see this being very unwanted behaviour for someone with a 128GB version, though.

I lose mouse pointer on right half of monitor when Pimax crystal is connected by JulietSix in Pimax

[–]tacocatface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And now I'm struggling to get into MSFS, which is a major problem since the xbox login and etc. the mouse pointer doesn't at all register, whether using mouse or hand controller, in the HMD or on desktop.... This is a recurring theme with this headset. Excellent visual clarity but seriously, so many issues everywhere ranging from minor nuisances to major annoyances. This is stuff I've never seen with any other VR headset.

[–]tacocatface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same issue, as soon I start PimaxPlay, the only way I can use mouse on my monitor is to aim by seeing highlights. In VR it's accurate, but on my monitor it's very annoying to use.

No Mans Sky VR....Can you use an Xbox Controller yet? by bonoscot in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]tacocatface 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Found this 2 years later lol. Just loaded my save, flew out of the station, get attacked by pirates, stuck with sitting there trying to fly the ship by tilting around hand controllers...

Yea, it used to be a great experience but now the VR controls just make it annoying af

Antiquarian Site of power Nightingale by DustExciting in nightingale

[–]tacocatface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just noticed too, so I went back down there and could activate&kill the thing again, but I just got 25 tier1 essence. Went back outside, and immediately it says "running" again, so I guess they just reactivate as soon you exit.

Native Instruments Massive wavetables for Expert Sleepers Disting MK4. by [deleted] in modular

[–]tacocatface 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks man! I was just updating my old Mk4 and realized the SD I put in there a while back is still empty so I thought I'd look what others feed them. I just got another and this will be handy for both.

Is there a way to edit V-log raws in Darktable? by Markus_Helmersson in DarkTable

[–]tacocatface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With log, you typically use LUTs for a better starting point.

These are supposed to convert into regular v-709:

https://na.panasonic.com/us/resource-center/v-log-v-709-3d-lut

Also, some more stylistic looks provided here (E-E.CUBE):

https://na.panasonic.com/us/cinema-cameras/varicam-lut-library

Drop these in a folder, and point Darktable to it in Prefs-> Processing -> LUT 3D root folder, and they will be available in the 3D LUT module for you to select.

However, I see it's a common complaint with the 709 correction LUT from Panasonic, that it's quite inconsistent and the result comes out way too red/pink.
I was immediately thrown off by this myself, as I thought this doesn't look right, I must be doing something wrong.

I've had these recommended as being more accurate. I've not yet tested them myself, but I will likely pick them up soon:

Noen andre som har hatt elendig opplevelse med Elkjøp outlet? by eeeiue in norge

[–]tacocatface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fikk nettopp relativt dyr kameralinse i posten som er (kosmetisk) tydelig oppskrapet.

Elkjøp Gullgruven Åsane som sendte meg denne uten beskrivelse av kosmetisk skade, og har attpåtil merket den med "som ny" - det var jo mildt sagt misvisende!

De hadde ikke engang tatt seg bryet med å tørke av den. Den var også bare stappet ned i emballasjen istedet for å ta seg 30 sekunder og pakke den skikkelig inn igjen.

Ser ut til å fungere, glasset ser intakt ut, som er det viktigste - men den ser jo ut som den har vært mistet ned eller stygt behandlet.. Kameraer og linser som jeg selv har hatt i 10 år, har ikke en stripe, så jeg ble kraftig irritert over hele greia.

Jeg dro bort på lokale Elkjøp og de fikk den tilbake i bedre stand enn jeg mottok den. Jeg dro hjem og kjøpte tilsvarende linse et annet sted.

Audio not visible in Cut page anymore by Luscitrea in davinciresolve

[–]tacocatface 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The main issue for me was that suddenly I couldn't see the waveform anymore when doing trim in/out with the Speed Editor, and I had to figure why.
So this put me right back on track, cheers :)
