    I don’t know how to phrase this without sounding like an idiot, so take a minute and let the “staplermofo’s an idiot” waves wash over you. Meditate, distance, rejoin.
    Good.

    If my memory of 90s raves serves, these kids are probably drug addicted, intermittently homeless, etc. They’re having fun, they’re brightly colored; it’s only dark if you put it in context.

    Like, does it need to convey darkness such that I could hop in my time machine, grab some guys from 1900 and 2100, show it to them and have them agree “that’s dark.”?

    I hear nice things about the 800mm.

    My understanding was either inside or outside. Yugo?

    Either. The only restriction is that it’s got to be a building dedicated to some belief system.

    I dunno, if it’s exactly as they claim it to be, it could be a good thing. A lot of people are only interested in what can be done with their phone, and the fundamentals of photography still apply. For some people, “try to position subjects so the sun is shining on them” and “don’t be afraid to squat or stand on something when trying to compose a shot” is absolutely worth ?25. I mean, people take classes for SLRs, and everything to learn about them operationally could be learned in 15 minutes on wikipedia (so the other 95% of the class is what makes it worthwhile). It’s not like people are printing iphone shots out for gallery art.

    They have rooms for foot-washing where you are?!? All the places I’ve been have them outside, or have none at all.

    A couple colleges and office buildings here have them. You can have only so many people washing their feet in the sinks and drying them with toilet paper before you look like an asshole for not providing a more dignified way.

    For where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them.

    Jesus does kill a kitten every time you masturbate, but he’s down for threesomes.

    Are Muslim foot-washing rooms, Scientology centers and/or bible-study rooms kosher for this?

    How about we bang out which things are handy?

    Backing up photos is important, what’s a good back up medium these days? BD-Rs? external hard drives? tape drives?

    I think a nice mouse is worth it.

    Maybe an IPS LCD with at least 8 bits of dynamic range per color.

    Anybody?

    NEC’s SX-10 should be coming out next year. If you’re able to spend a little more, Cray has some very nice options available.

    The mentioned a 120mp aps-h sensor a while back. They probably set it on fire and lit their platinum crack pipes with it though. DAMN YOU CANON!!

    The last one was Technohead. The description said it could make anyone happy. I guess some people like staying on the rails. …… …..
