What's really interesting is Entangle. https://entangle-photo.org/ It works with a lot of DSLRs, it doesn't require you to do any of these steps, and it captures the output. The only thing it doesn't do is then map that to an output for other applications to pick up. There is an open request for this, but it seems to be out of scope for the application. https://gitlab.com/entangle/entangle/-/issues/68 It... - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

This. Go for tethered capture on a pair of old dSLRs and use something like an rPi or just bloody long cables to pull the images to an always-on linux box. Have a look at this to get started -- https://entangle-photo.org/ -- which works with many canon/nikon bodies. There are a few "lithium to power" hacks (e.g. "ONsite Relay A Camera Power System") but they are expensive and often many of the bodies can power... - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

Entangle works well if you are on Linux (or would consider dual booting) https://entangle-photo.org/. Source: almost 3 years ago

Except that there are Android applications (like ABRP - https://abetterrouteplanner.com/ ) that do planning _better_ than the built-in navigation software in Tesla. > Maybe a separate map app that ran inside carplay to provide the required featureset? Yup. It's a pretty straightforward feature. Heck, I'd write it myself once I get an EV with Android Auto. - Source: Hacker News / 11 days ago

The above poster said it would take hours each charge of a few hundred km. You're acknowledging it only takes 31 minutes for a few hundred km charge but you're saying that's worse? Here's a similar route in an ID.3. https://abetterrouteplanner.com/?plan_uuid=13a0bcb2-9052-405f-ac27-9b8d38bd01fe Average charging wait time on this trip is a bit under 22min. For almost 12 hours of driving it... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

It's actually a 915km trip ending up in the French Alps during winter time, so it's more taxing on the battery, and I need some juice left on arrival (30%) You can test it out yourself on ABRP [0]. My trip goes from Lier, Belgium to Les Saisies, France. With "quickest arrival" setting, ABRP does 4 stops with a total charging time of 1h25min (and 8h29 driving). The stops are 28, 18, 18 and 22 minutes respectively.... - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

Https://abetterrouteplanner.com/?plan_uuid=f10ce8fe-c1b7-4ade-9c5e-bc564189a799 22h of driving, of which 2h38m for rest&charging Seems totally reasonable to me. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

> With ICE I don't have to worry about any of that. You don't do that with EVs that nav takes all of that into account. The only valid issue are the poorly maintained Electrify America chargers on non Tesla EV's. But that about to change in the U.S. Since pretty much everyone is adopting NACS/SAE J340 Standard. Which will make them compatible with Tesla Superchargers. Apps like ABRP also exist that is compatible... - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago
