Yeah, Adobe sucks major ass but while I’ve been meticulous for quite a few years to choose software that’s either FOSS or at least had native Linux versions, I can’t see myself doing the photography stuff in the alternatives. I’m moving more and more away from that work for moving images instead and the main programs I use for that do work (DaVinci resolve, blender). Thank you!
I’m a pretty advanced user on Windows and I sometimes use the command prompts but it’s pretty darn rare, and I certainly don’t have any commands memorized. I have a couple basic commands memorized for the run tool but even that rarely comes up. I don’t tinker with my machine for the sake of it though, ideally I want it to “just work” and I’d want the same thing from Linux. And I do want that but unfortunately there’s a few programs I need for my work that don’t run on it (namely lightroom and Photoshop). Spending time on Lemmy did make me want to install a dual boot mint though, I have a separate drive for it I need to move from my old machine, doing that soon^tm.
This particular program would work great in combination with old school German/Dutch toilets with the poop shelf, take a pic after the deed and let the program tell you how you need to adjust your diet.
Spring always does that to me, suddenly I’m 17 again wandering around my old french countryside/town.
Now add the fact I’m my own boss (so no real weekends, there’s always work to do) and have a small child and the feelings of guilt are coming in regardless, either I’m neglecting my work, or my child! It’s a win-win!
Can confirm my oled is gorgeous in a dark environment but doesn’t deal well at all during daytime with dark content (bright content is generally fine though).
But 2016 was like, what, 2 or 3 years ago max, right? RIGHT???
I hear you! I work in the field and felt like giving context, it’s hard to know what’s common knowledge and not sometimes. The main point is, a lot of this stuff isn’t “mistakes” but either deliberate so as not to distract or just way more convenient for the production pipeline.
insert any European watching Eurotrip, where London, Paris, Amsterdam and Rome are all shot in Prague
They probably didn’t even record any sounds when they shot the scene.
There’s a few reasons for this, firing the real siren on set is not practical due to the audio levels, they could maybe record it separately but that’s an extra thing to do, and why bother when “air_raid_siren_004.wav” is right there? Also audiences are used to “air_raid_siren_004.wav” and they’ll know immediately what it’s supposed to be, if you played the real sounds and it’s too unusual, it’ll make the audience think about it and take them out of the story. There’s so much stuff like this I’m filmmaking where if you stop to think about it critically for a second it doesn’t make sense, but that’s the point they don’t want you thinking about that, they want you thinking about the story and the characters. I know that’s frustrating when it’s your topic but I’m sure you’re glad they do it like this in any other case.
Pretty much the state of gmaps in Germany already.
Lost me at “eye contact”.
Pierogi?
Fish&Chips and sushi might be a good start, at least that’s how I started eating fish even though I hated anything coming out of the water for my first 25 years or so. Maybe shrimps? Especially fried. Basically fried battered stuff, they usually don’t use the tasty fish in that stuff so the taste is mild.
You mean dead cat bounce I think?
That would at least be a step in the right direction.
What a grim yet totally accurate way to think about it.
Easy on the rice though.
