Some people just have to get in the last word. When they see something they disagree with, they have to disagree. Then the author of what they disagree with has to disagree, and it goes back and forth forever. It's pretty ridiculous. People somehow think that they can change someone's mind on something with what they would call reason. It doesn't always work that way. Many people end up repeatedly trying to change the minds of those who disagree with them. I've known people in real life who can't accept any opinions other than their own, and others eventually avoid them if they can.

I've used this for a long time. It's a Chrome extension. It obviously only works on a computer. You can also download videos from YouTube and watch them offline. You don't get the commercials when you do this. I do this a lot if I want to save them. I use third party software (VideoProc Converter AI), which isn't free. I believe there are free options.
If you're watching on a TV, I can't help you.

Here’s an idea for you all. When you want to post a photo to UHH, in the Gallery or somewhere else, how about explaining why you like it and why you think it’s worth showing. If we all understood that, we would probably view your photos in a different light.

I see a lot of photos where the implication is "You might enjoy visiting here someday."

Here is something that no one has brought up. Has anyone else noticed that the people who are posting their snapshots and the people replying with praise are the same people over and over? They all address each other by their first names. What we have here is a social group. They don't want criticism. They want to be friends. If you don't want to "put up with" this, then move on. There is nothing in the rules against this. Different strokes for different folks. I would suggest leaving them alone. Maybe it adds meaning to their lives in their old age.

Google Lens can be your friend. It doesn't nail it 100% of the time, but it's quite good. Download if you have trouble reading the results. I sometimes use this to identify plants and antiques as well.

From Denver -
"Colorado lawmaker apologizes for leaving gun in Capitol bathroom.
Rep. Don Wilson of Monument left the weapon unattended Tuesday night"
You never know where your enemies will be lurking!
Reading the headlines - from anywhere - makes me wish there were an alternate universe I could move to.

Members of Congress (Federal) can keep firearms in their offices, but they can't carry them into hearing rooms or into the floor of Congress.

What about this? Might work with the drive in your camcorder. Get the data off. Throw it away. (You don't really want to bother with changing the touch screen, do you?) Edit. I see the platform mentioned MAC. I'm not sure why that would be true. I'm adding another link at the end, but the newest supported OS is Windows 7. Again, not sure why that would be true. Well, something like this is bound to work.

I don't know where those guys got SSDs for it.
Toshiba? I'm still thinking about this. I see your camcorder has an HDMI output. Did the camcorder come with a remote control? Many of those Sony camcorders did. (Not sure about mine. I don't know where the box is at the moment.) If you don't have one, put in the model number and "remote control" into Google and see if something comes up. Perhaps a remote control would allow you to at least view your video on a TV.
When capturing video from the older DV recorders, the capture program would actually control the camcorder through a Firewire cable. I don't think that's going to be an option with HDMI. I don't know, plus you'd have to figure out how to get the video to play on your compter. My computers only have HDMI out.

One day we arranged a badly composed still life with uglee lighting, as a "demonstration", and posted it to the Gallery. Our sole hook was that all the content was vintage photo relic items. Plenty of little short compliments poured forth, as per the custom for Gallery pix. Or maybe it was in the Critique section. But nevertheless, the little kneejerk kudos were dutifully heaped thereupon. You cant provoke any negative replies even if you try.
You didn't try hard enough. Portrait of a propane tank. Critique? I think I need to buy a mirrorless camera. That fixes everything.

There is some guy said he used bios from another company (not adaptec) and it has more functionality but he didn't say anything about drive size.
Attached are screen shots.
First picture is the screen shot with a 500GB drive. Right after that it would go to boot.
Second picture is the screen shot with the 1TB drive. I have made 2 500GB partitions on it and format them as NTFS.
The SATA controller got the name of the drive but that is. It hangs there.

I have no ideas. I'm not familiar with having to configure such a thing or why you're seeing this screen if you're simply trying to install Windows on this drive. The Windows installation should see the drive and install Windows on it. A Bios update on a 20 year old machine is going to be very hard to find.

There are people on UHH who are hung up on the technical side of things, and there are people who post photos to share the joy they experienced in a place or at an event. It's just poison when they cross paths. I remember someone going ballistic when another criticized a photo that they posted without asking for advice, and they left the forum. I think that sometimes those positive responses to snapshots that are posted are just to say that they share the feelings that the photos represent.

I have a little Sony camcorder HDR CX-230 that is possibly a bit newer than yours. It has an attached USB cable that is used for charging the battery. If I plug it into a computer and turn on the camcorder, the computer sees it as another drive, just like with a phone or tablet. I can find the video on the hard drive by looking around and transfer it to the computer. (In a "Stream" folder) Mine also has a card I put in it. I can see that too. Is this a possibility for you?

I mount the drive on a Win10 computer and it said Master Boot Record.
At least you ruled that out.

Nice set.
Thanks to all who enjoyed these pictures. If the little ones come around after this, I'll share photos of them.
