So... my Piaggio Liberty 150 got into an accident and its totaled. Time to get a new bike. I figured its time to get something with more pep and I immediately gravitated to getting a Piaggio Beverly. There is a local listing for a 2021 bv350 in great shape for $4000 USD - but then I cam across the Yamaha Xmax, a 2024 in great shape, beautiful paint work, for $5200 USD. Now I am torn - can anyone that has owned either of these bikes comment? Is there a 3rd option I should look at? What should I do?

Question for you all - For my phone, I have this gadget marketed as an Airplane Tray Table Phone Holder Mount. I use it everywhere, not just on planes. I wanted to find something similar but for the pocket 4. Do they make something like this? Image below for reference of what Im talking about. It is too wide for the pocket 4.

Alternatively, anything I can use that will just clip / clamp on to things? (not a tripod)

I purchased an Osmo Pocket 4 for about $450 taxes included and shipped via AliExpress. It was pre-activated and arrived in Chinese, which was a pain to navigate to change to english and eventually reset, but I did it. It connects to Mimo app and everything works, but it appears it was registered and bound (binded?) to an account 20 days ago and I cannot bind it to my account. DJI customer support says there is nothing they can do about that but that it "does not affect your use of the device nor your after sales rights."

Is there a way to bind the device to my account, should I reach out to seller, should i care?

I might have to swap out my phone under warranty and am afraid of losing data stored in random folders, etc. In the past I have negated this by transferring all the files manually to my computer, but I feel like there must be a better way to make sure my downloads folder (for example) is fully backed up and restorable.

I understand they are rolling out a documents backup, but I dont have access to it at this time. (not sure if there is a way to force it)

AI answers have been even more confusing - why is this so difficult.

I was going to pick up the DJI Pocket 4, as I found a great deal, but then I started to second-guess whether I would fully use it because I have ambitions to vlog, but I haven't been vlogging.

I read some posts where people suggested I start with my phone but I wanted to get a gimbal to hold my phone. I saw the DJI Mobile 7 for around $60USD on sale and the DJI Mic Mini combo with the charging case for about $80USD on sale.

Is this combo a better way to start than the Pocket 4. Is my instinct right, or is there an even better or cheaper approach to start the hobby? Should I spend more and get something like the Osmo Mobil 8 combo with tracking and fill light for double the price?

Been thinking about what my ideal all in one would be.

• Start with SC Live 4
• Get rid of speakers and make layout a bit less cramped. Can increase size in any direction if helps. Goal is to be smaller than Prime 4, Rane Performer.
• Add inputs for external gear for each channel
• Add mic EQ controls (can be on screen)
• Add a zone output
• Additional Laptop Input
• Better pad selection area - either like prime 4, or any other flagship unit - its so cramped on sc live 4.
• Slightly improve build quality throughout.
• Optional - displays for pad selection area labels, similar to rane 4
• Optional - displays in jogs
• Optional - Larger Screen - likely not 10, maybe 8.

The optionals are optional because I would like to keep costs down to where the SC Live 4 is now.

I started with the SC Live 4, because it uses a traditional mixer layout for effects, etc and is about the size of a FLX10. While I like paddles, i often find myself going back and forth with pioneer CDJ/DJM setups - so having my mobile unit keep that layout is super helpful.

What do you all think?

So I uploaded an Illustrator file to Adobe Express and it did a pretty good job of recreating it in Express. Unfortunately, after I did my edits and then downloaded a copy of the files, I came back the next day to make a change, and the changes were, the files were gone and I couldn't find it. So I re-uploaded the Illustrator file to do everything all over again, and I noticed that it saves in a temp folder in Adobe Express that I don't know where that exists, and I can't save the file in Adobe Express to my regular projects. Is this normal behavior? What is going on here?

EDIT: This has been fixed - thanks adobe support and u/SwopesAdobe

I have a weekend pass and I was supposed to go with a friend but they canceled on me. So now I'm debating whether or not I want to go.

Any of you going?

Edit: I am going - thanks all that reached out 😄

So, I was scrolling through Facebook Marketplace, and I stumbled upon a 2022 Suzuki Bergman 200 for about $800 more than what I could sell my 2021 Piaggio Liberty 150. I really like how the Bergman has a lot more storage and seems to be a bit more comfortable, according to the reviews, but I haven't ridden it yet. I'm okay with the extra weight, and I think I would really appreciate the extra 50 cc's, especially when I'm on the freeways. I feel like I push my Liberty way too hard. My only concern is that the tires are smaller on the Bergman, as I really like the height and the bigger tires on the Liberty. What do you all suggest? And while we're on the subject, do you think Suzuki is gonna release a newer version of the Bergman 200?

I am in new york city and our roads suck.
