Paulaner!

I tried out spezi when I travelled to Germany, it was weirdly nice.

Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark, and Daniel Craig as James Bond.

I’m pointing out that alternatives exist, and they are decent alternatives.

And I’m pointing out that those alternatives in practicality are not even close. Suggesting a hobby project out of the blue when OP is not even asking for it (and even claiming that they are comparable) is just dumb.

Capturing a photo of a bullet that’s been slowing down for 300 meters is not a great technical feat.

You just missed my point about the 1.6MP elephant in the room. And that’s just ignoring every other camera feature used to take the shot, which you would have to manually dial in with your rpi camera. You are simply not going to do that in the chaos.

I’ve only used Raspberry Pi based systems with manual focus.

Well that’s certainly a problem, isn’t it? You don’t know what OP does with their camera, if it’s a hobby or for a living. Go try suggesting building a RPi camera kit to sports photographers, see if they give a fuck about it.

Depth of field is a property of the lens, not the sensor.

DoF has everything to do with sensor SIZE. You are simply never going to get the level of shallow depth of field with tiny sensors compared to even M43 or bigger sensors. You are simply never going to get the ISO performances or dynamic range of a bigger sensor because the photosites are just physically huge compared to those in phone camera sensors. Even a cheap old 12MP DSLR is going to destroy the images quality coming out of the best 64MP rpi camera kit, not even a question. And not to mention all the other functions a modern camera has, like weather sealing, subject detect autofocus, auto white balance, color science, image stabilization, etc.

Sensors: if you want to take pictures in starlight, you can get IMX585 (hard due to market problems). If you want lots of pixels, 64 M is not a problem. If you want to photograph a bullet, you can get the low-pixel global shutter sensor, there is code around to take video at 500 fps (disclaimer: tiny video, extreme light level required).

I count 3 different sensors for each scenario now, and you even know their downsides. What makes you think OP is willing to deal with these? The global shutter sensor is a 1.6MP sensor. Yeah, that absolutely can replace the gear that captured the photo of the bullet whizzing by Trump and won the Pulitzer prize.

Yes, the depth of field and image quality the camera kit sensors and lenses produce sure can match those produced by full frame sensors and lenses. And fuck Canon’s industry leading autofocus, OP can write their own autofocus algorithm too!

Well TBF, it was a loophole. Not surprised they patched it out.

Previously, a Switch designated as a primary console could load up a digital game and play online alongside the owner of that game logged in via a second Switch.

I’m under the impression that the old method is still available, so you could still use this “trick” to play the same copy on two devices.

There’s a NintendoLife article detailing how to perform the loophole

However, there is a loophole that will let you play the same game on two Switches. To do so, head into the ‘User’ section of the System Settings and select your profile. Then, head down to Online License Settings and turn it on.
This allows you to play digital games whilst connected to the internet, even if the relevant Virtual Game Card is loaded onto another system.

That’s interesting! Thanks for the reply!

Rules for thee, not for me

Are there any music pieces that are your favorite because of synesthesia? Or pieces that you couldn’t enjoy because of it?
I’d also imagine that watching movies must be a very different experience for you too haha.

So I just want to chime in here as an outsider. From what I searched, national forests are different from national parks in that, extraction of natural resources from national forests is permitted for commercial and personal use.

Trump’s order cites wildfire, insect and disease outbreak as the reason for this change (Biden also sought more logging to combat fire but apparently timber sales did not change much during his tenure). While I agree that forest management is important, Trump had also put tariffs on Canadian lumber and cut down jobs for national park workers. It’s not hard to question if there are other motivations other than wildfire prevention in this context.

Putting tariffs on Norfolk Island and Heard and McDonald Islands are particularly funny considering Heard and McDonald Islands only has penguins living there lol.

Taiwan always had pretty good relations with Japan. It’s the Trump situation that threw everything in the air. People here for whatever reason can be extreme as if you’re not pro-trump, you’re pro-china. They actively say that any messages that are anti-trump or anti-america, reasonable or not, are lies of the ccp. Which is insane.

I do not want China to annex my hometown, but I also do not like how trump is going about it, alienating allies and all. It’s like having to choose between two evils, because if not the US, who can we rely on to back us up in military? If we want to survive under trump, we have to play by his rule. He does not have a lick of respect for other countries’ sovereignty, as shown with Canada and Greenland, and I hate that we have no choice but to endure that.

Speaking as a Taiwanese, I fucking hate this situation we’re stuck in.

There shouldn’t have been a poll in the first place

Thanks! I think I’ll get that checked soon. Shame that I press it often for the camera shortcut. Maybe that’s the reason why it broke.

Yes, but it was only a flash, so I didn’t get to see what was on it.

It’s just over 2 years old now, and I’ve been using Accubattery to limit charging to 80% from the start. Battery health is still 97% according to it.
