My apologies then if I missed your sarcasm, I see that argument so often used and it is very baffling to me how someone can think that would be a realistic business option.

Wow, this again: Do none of you have any business sense whatsoever? Do you realize how fast Sundar Pichai would be removed if he were to propose your idea to the board of directors? The shareholders lawsuits would come so fast it would make your head spin. To paraphrase Boromir: One does not...

Oh yes that argument, somehow it always shows up ... indeed they should pull out of a 18+ trillion dollar market, I'm sure no major competitor will take advantage of that. That would be one heck of a business decision. :rolleyes:

If I understood correctly (not guaranteed since it's 2:30 am here :confused: ) this headset is amazing for consuming media (videos, movies etc...) but a big meh for gaming. In this case would you say it's worth it, if media consumption is the primary goal? Or would high quality $400 headphones...

Hahahahahaha...sorry I could not stop laughing when I saw this review and realized it's posted way earlier than anyone else. Guess choosing not be an industry shill does pay off after all. Awesome job Kyle :cool: About the card: While it is interesting from a technical standpoint, from a bang...

So they discovered that a product called "Not a flamethrower" is not actually a flamethrower ... guess on the next episode we'll find out if you get wet when when swimming in the ocean (y) e-thugging in progress ... :ROFLMAO:

Unless ... you know ... Getty decides that your photos are actually theirs ... https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20160727/11243335088/photographer-sues-getty-images-1-billion-claiming-copyright-photos-she-donated-to-public.shtml

Meh nothing special, playing with a sunstar and flares at f22 in the first one, then capturing some tandem seagulls with my new 70-200 f4 G

had a rather nice drive there too ... ;)

Went for a trip in the mountains:

I think there are quite a few strong arguments against the F35 IMO they should've kept the F22 line open then developed the electronics package currently installed in the F35 for them. The end result would've been a far superior plane for far cheaper. Then just build a flipping dedicated plane...

To be more accurate the main reason he was able to fly was still due to aerodynamics in particular the F15 has a lifting body design: (and enough remaning control surfaces of course) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lifting_body However as you mentioned, having massive thrust does indeed help...

Way to completely put words in my mouth, the US has absolutely been a positive force in Europe and it will still probably be in the future, who said anything to the contrary. Like you said it looks like we are not much in disagreement. This is one of the areas the EU really needs to improve...

Is the EU perfect? absolutely not. There are many many things that can be improved. My argument is that as a concept is still solid and it should be improved not scrapped. However this tread is about that stupid copyright law so let's not derail it by going on a tangent. I will not waste my...

While hello there crazy conspiracy theorist guy. Did you even read in my post that I am strongly against this law. As a matter of fact I am very strongly pro freedom of speech, and what I posted is not misinformation is simply verifiable fact: The MEP proposing this law is to the right...

While this is clearly a stupid law that will hopefully be struck down or amended (it's not final yet). You might want to consider informing yourself before posting stupid things. This law has been pushed by lobby/interest groups and not by ideological groups. As a matter of fact if you would've...

Gorgeous....also stop making me spend more money :mad:...I'm looking now for a wide(ish) fast prime found so far a 35mm 1.4 samyang for my a73

how far away are those mountains? I wonder if you could use a long throw flashlight (some can go around a mile) to light paint the foreground

Indeed it has quite an interesting design :)

went for a walk outside :) two takes of a similar view

made a quick run to Monchau near Aachen

Is the first pic post processed by you or it comes like that out of the mavic pro? BTW I heard a rumor that the upcoming mavic pro will have a 1 inch sensor, that will be quite something

processed to try out a "dreamy" look

Gotcha...the left corner. I did not bother me that much but now I see it....i'll fix it :cool: thanks :) more

Florence clicky:

thanks for the advice about shooting prop planes...good to know for the future :)

Thanks, unfortunately it looks still visibly worse than the original. I need a place to host my pics that keeps the high quality up (I read that smugmug is a good place for this) Maybe it's different for Canon sensors (i'm used to Sony ones) but I take the opposite approach, I underexpose to...

love the b&w treatment especially for the ground I've tried to downscale it and crop it as close to your monitor's rez as possible, I've removed the watermark also...enjoy :) and here is another pic from the airshow Playing around I rather like the bw version of my earlier shot:

Glad you like it, if you want a custom aspect ratio crop just let me know, the one I posted was already cropped from the raw :) Hey pal, do you think I will let you be the only posting airplane photos here;) (big airplane nerd here :D) Just got back from the...

indeed gorgeous place....make sure to go to Florence also. It's less than 2h away on the freeway Speaking of which ;) here it is, trying out some manual blending of two exposures in Photoshop (any critique welcome) clicky: edit...a few more tweaks to the photo
