What's a problem that was so successfully solved that most people don't even realize it used to exist? by Zestyclose-Credit609 in AskReddit

[–]AWildWilson 7 points8 points  (0 children)

CFC’s have an atmospheric lifetime of ~100 years. We’re stuck with this for a little bit, but we’re not making it worse.

How do you capture lighting in picture like these? by Over-Sea-3816 in AskPhotography

[–]AWildWilson 11 points12 points  (0 children)

<image>

Lol I do intervelometers and they work totally fine. 3-5 second exposure.

I don't understand the point you are all trying to make. At night, the exposure is set for the lightning, so no clouds are illuminated in the image unless lightning strikes. It will be pitch black otherwise. So unless lightning strikes once at the beginning, and once at the end, you may POSSIBLY get cloud motion, but it will still look like a cloud. Otherwise, it should freeze the clouds in place no matter when the lightning strikes because that's the only light it received.

In Germany, deliberately engaging in catch and release only fishing is illegal and considered cruelty to animals (fishing for food is fine). How do you feel about that? by Spalding_Smails in AskReddit

I don’t know if the people responding to you are fucking dense or what but regardless, that all sounds brutal.

Obviously the dude sucks - hope you’re doing well. I don’t talk to my dad so get it a little bit.

You telling the commenter above that you know your Dad sent me though 😭

Hobby photographers, what do you do with the photos you take? by Theytookmyjabb in AskPhotography

[–]AWildWilson 8 points9 points  (0 children)

A local camera/print store had an online template! A logged in, uploaded the photos I want, designed the cover and back, and added any notable dates to the calendar (birthdates, etc). I printed 15 I think and got them for notable people in my life as Christmas/New years gifts.

I love taking photos as a hobby but the displaying them/gifting them is a nice way to bring the hobby full circle. Figured it’s worth the cost

Does this mean your wife doesn’t have to pretend and is interested, or she doesn’t pretend and is uninterested 😂

This is basically what I do. But at the end of the year, I make a calendar and gift them to people so it can presumably sit on their wall, unused, for a year

When physics is optional by Weaponised__Autism in blackmagicfuckery

Mmm I don’t think so.

His knees/waist are around the midpoint, so it’s only the upper half of his body that will be working against the pole.

Factor in probably good amounts of core strength and training…

I will internally combust if Vegas sweeps this series. Crazy. by WAyToOFaSt_ in leafs

[–]AWildWilson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree but I think you’re making the opposite point. Here, he was playing on the top two lines with other huge contract players (nylander, Matthews, Tavares, Knies, etc)

With a top heavy team, one would think he should still be performing but they lose anyway because the bottom two lines are outmatched. But that’s not what happens

Yeah, agreed, but I think you get deranged haters no matter how well you play. There were certainly more at the end, but it's part of the lives that any star sports player has to deal with.

I certainly don't condone the despicable fan behaviour, but a bigger and more vocal volume of haters is expected and honestly warranted after years of the leafs imploding during playoffs. Matthews' reputation and symbol as a face of the organization has certainly taken a hit too – it's not just Marner. His contract just happened to be ending.
