But usb drives are usually not listed in that file. Are these usb drives or builtin disks?<br/><br/>Diagnosing from afar… are the drives still mounted after changing labels? (Can you find them in the file manager?)<br/>Resolve might just have to reconnect the media using the new drive name. It‘s like changing drive letters on Windows… it won’t find the footage. 2025-02-02T18:47:43Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsdqw39z9kq65mgu2nk5c8qfvf490daw5gy0pulmn229xapfnw0scgzyqql8l3rl0q6h5kt3ak532zcww2qszlxeylzp2x70a2fs6nwwyhx2et8kz2 „Your privacy is important to us“ the popup reads… while the fine print talks about your „131 partners“ you’re sharing my visit with.

What irks me a bit though is the subtext that &#34;idea X about living in space is naive because nobody but us has ever thought it through&#34;. It&#39;s very funny to read but... there&#39;s #SciFi movies and literature about all of this! Millions upon millions of pages have been written about why humans won&#39;t magically become better people in space or how living in a metal tube is vastly more difficult than living on even the most hostile place on earth... #TheExpanse 2024-12-21T07:28:40Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsvz98c4pgmagtyfdapd2py57d56rvcdhund63l90ra4spklmqyq3szyqql8l3rl0q6h5kt3ak532zcww2qszlxeylzp2x70a2fs6nwwyhx2u4uzx9 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsz2s8x453pfmf32xr8m0kn32089l92epknf87568mme4autey33cqvpf52a'>nevent1q…f52a</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Saw this on a German satire site similar to what the onion is in the US.

I think it&#39;s shot on static cameras with 2D motion added in post.

Really really good sci-fi ship, robot and gadget designs. There&#39;s such a variety of designs yet they all feel like they are part of the same world. Some of it feels straight out of an art book because it looks so damn cool but over-designed at the same time. Why build police robots with creepy ant-like mouths that can move while they are talking even though that serves no purpose for generating their voices?<br/><br/>#movie #SciFi 2024-08-04T08:03:30Z
