The viewing angle with a 12mm focal length on a blackmagic s16 sensor is probably closer to a 24mm lens, maybe even more, on a full frame sensor.

Oh damn, totally forgot about safety. That's probably telling.

Hey, basket weaving and leather work were super fun, and I have all cool ones like shotgun, archery and rifle. The most boring are probably your citizenship badges. Don't knock it till you try it.

Agreed on type 1 tape. I have many that sound great, it actually works really well for bass heavy music like hip hop. Makes sense that most of the mass produced tapes at the hey day of cassette were inconsistent.

Got myself a Nakamichi BX-300, and I'm kinda blown away by how decent it is. With the price old 80's cassette decks go for today, it seems like you could produce a fairly well spec'ed machine for ~300 and have it sell. Agreed

No, it's not. Having grown up in it, this is a very general gist: Being out ethics, connected with an SP, and probably a few other situation will manifest itself as injury. There isn't really a concept of "sin", just wha

That is a scary paragraph you put down there.

I have about a decade of real professional coding experience. Not going to say I'm excellent, or near the caliber of developer FAANG are looking for, but I can write code. I can count on one finger the number of interviews I've go

I don’t know about cheaper, but Fuji, HP and photography related companies made disks. Completely unrelated, but the SCSI versions made them pretty much plug and play with tons of hardware. There is an old Roland sampler I have made in ‘88

You could argue the certificate is the art, and self referencing art ain't new. René Magritte wants his pipe back.

Absolutely, there is a reason for the scarcity and people will put value on that. One carve out may be things like SUPREME, or some rare Air Force Ones, but that probably boils down the amazing marketing on their part, and may not stand up

Yeah, it was kids that bought them at a nickel or whatever they were, and were treated as such for a very long time. Same thing can be said of stamps, hot wheels, barbis, baseball cards, pre war Native American handicrafts, CRT monitors, el

The entire AT&T archive channel is really fascinating. There is something about phone switching systems that scratches that nerd itch for me.

Become a roofer for your entire working life, blow your back and knees out at 45, and tell me that's a privilege. Or maybe tell the overwhelming majority of male homeless they simply squandered it. I don't know why the possibility

Well yes, obviously. I was simply expanding on the parents comments that it was difficult to learn to repair your car (or potentially a washing machine). I don't think that's necessarily accurate. Yes, YouTube didn't exist, b

Good luck repairing a car now. They are way more reliable, and way more tolerant to owner neglect, but give me an old BMW 2002 or VW bug and I can repair pretty much everything in those machines with my Haynes manuals. Safety on the other h

I don't think you understand the number of monthly listeners he draws, it was around 200 million or so. If you compare it to Howard Stern's contract of 100 million a year, it's really not a huge stretch for Joe Rogan to negot

Back in the late 80s-early 90s with the advent of FM, digital recording, samplers and other stuff, people were ditching analog equipment en masse and _nobody_ wanted to buy it except for broke kids, and this gave rise to whole new genres an

The dude absentmindedly eats toe jam. He's um... touched. It really shouldn't be a surprising he lacks social cues, and probably has no idea how to interact with women besides blurting out the first dumb thought that comes to his

If the biggest names in the game are ads and finance, you'll find a justification to climb your way into that job. What else are you supposed to do? A comfy middle class life is not a guarantee, and any ambiguous notions of moral duty

I don't understand these half assed measures. The original goal was to shut everything down to explicitly flatten the curve and not swamp hospitals. That was the fear, the exponential curve of millions on millions dead in a few weeks t

I DJ. Not something I would recommend as a career choice. Pay isn't as good and I don't have benefits, but the lack of dread is nice.

This entire industry is just awful, and the antithesis of anything resembling the compassionate virtues they claim to espouse. I'm done with programming, and maybe that's what is supposed to happen, but it has left a very bitter t

Spotify doesn't "master", you upload an uncompressed version of the track, and they will encode to OGG with a target LUFS. Classical music isn't impacted by this; it's loud rock, pop and EDM with aggressive limiting

This is pretty much the crux of why we see unrest and increased polarization. There are the afore mentioned CPAs with just too much stimulus money to spend, people buying houses faster than they can be built, or the high net wealth individu

I'm guessing it probably needs a very specific diet and climate to survive. If this is like other chameleons, they are prone to all sorts of health issues and in general very hard to keep alive.

I'm a mediocre programmer, able to create interesting stuff, and have built tangible value in companies I've worked for, but mid pack in terms of programming chops. The problem is getting work, and hovering over destitution gets i

People need to really internalize this. It's a game for power, and depending on the circumstances, will use any tool necessary to achieve those means. Our opinions here are worse than nothing, as it accomplishes nothing of value at the
