I used to work with an English chap who made a habit of reminding me that Moonraker had US Space Marines a good few years before Aliens … Semper Fi!

It’s common for urban Japanese to have a big old family home waiting for them in the countryside when they retire.

Ideally a surveillance camera will already be focused to have the entire scene sharp. The Lytro camera had postage stamp resolution as far as I remember so it wouldn’t solve the problem that you are thinking of.

There’s even a scene where Snake tries “hiding” in a box and you can find and shoot him

> LA is packed full of traffic and the story would have taken a very different (and interesting) angle if it reckoned with the fact that getting through the traffic is it's own game. You might like “To Live and Die in LA”

What are you talking about specifically? BOTW is the next game I played after the N64 games and it tonally it felt like OOT2 to me

I’m not familiar with Teslas but to me the UX problem is that Autopilot and FSD sound like they should mean the same thing

“I’m getting it for the kids” doesn’t work for a $2,000+ PC that can play the latest games, and that has always kept PC gaming niche in Japan.

In city driving my ICE gets 6-8km/L in summer and 8-10 in winter. On the highway it gets 10-12 in either season

I have a Soviet camera lens built for the domestic market (so worse quality) from the 80s and its build and optical quality is fine. It doesn’t compare to similar vintage lenses from Japan but was much cheaper new at the time.

The point of learning Sunny 16 is that once you’ve internalized thinking in full stops, you don’t need visual feedback, which makes you faster, which can make the difference between getting your shot or not and having a happy or angry clien

Pretty awesome overall, one improvement would be to shoot the model in the focal length shot face on to better illustrate the big nose, no ears (too wide) and pancake face (too tele) effects

If it was a residential area (houses) police generally know everyone who lives there, so yes, they will consider someone they haven't seen before talking on the street at night suspicious.

When you were a teenager and played CS skins were free. Now the game is aimed at the same age group but entices* kids to spend $2.50 for very low odds of winning at a slot machine and getting a skin worth thousands of dollars. * Valve banne

Try "emilydamstra butterfly". I'm being serious, once you know, it's extreme "cannot unsee" territory.

What a treasure! I particularly like one thing about the picture of the butterfly. Look up what’s wrong with nearly every modern depiction of butterflies if you dare…

What language is that? In Japanese "bike" specifically refers to motorcycles, and 50cc scooters are called "engines" :-)

even in Shinjuku there are cheap houses if you look. My friend rents an old house with renovated interior in Shimoochiai for what I thought was surprisingly cheap

The Takumar 55mm SLR lens is really interesting to me because over 4+ versions of the lens it kept the same optical design but got dramatically improved coatings every few versions. The single-coated version actually has quite good and nat

I love messing around with my bicycle's parts and adjustments to be 1% more efficient or whatever, so I understand where guys who take photos of test charts and use 2x heavier lenses because they have a little bit better corners or les

D700 has a big sensor but less MP. It doesn't matter, I got a Zfc(20MP) for my studio when the photographer complained about our D8xx(36MP) cameras being too heavy and not having articulated screens, and it's been fine so far.

Shooting on film really helped with visualizing the exposure and depth of field of my shots, it was always a lot of fun waiting to see if my final photos looked as good as I imagined them, especially when shooting on picky film like Velvia

Selling all your lenses for a loss just to buy mostly the same thing sounds like a pain to me. Adapters are hit and miss too, even when on paper they should be 100% compatible
