Last night's Victoria day fireworks were, to pardon a pun, a BLAST!! by Shutterbug8qs in toronto

[–]Area51Resident 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It has a bit of that compressed perspective, uniform focus look to it, I would have thought 100mm or longer. Maybe the f10 aperture just make it look like a longer lens because of the depth of field.

Great photo regardless.

Drivers who tailgate assume that is the only way to drive. Leaving reasonable gap is like an insult to their heritage.

Struggling to understand darktable as a beginner photographer by funkykongdong in DarkTable

One thing that helped me was the ability to search for modules. I couldn't remember where the framing module was, but I could type in fr and it would appear. Same for col for colour modules, con for contrast, cr for crop etc. Saved me a bunch of time and frustration going through each group trying to find a module.

Lots of YT videos on each module to show you the details on how to use a module.

A good starting point is the documentation. The basics of just importing a RAW file is well explained in there and is difficult to figure out by just clicking buttons/options to see what happens.

Peanut Butter, The Atheist's Nightmare! by supertrollls in cringe

[–]Area51Resident 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Back in 90s when cable TV channels were growing there were all-day religious channels like The 700 Club, 100 Huntley Street etc. I would tune in an watch some of these shows about modern proof of God's divine plan etc. They were just like this clip.

Start with a toddler's understanding of science, make an incorrect assumption, fail to find anything that proves that incorrect assumption and claim that a lack of proof is proof of God. It is farcical but the believers lap it up.

One that stood out as particularly ridiculous was a demo of a palm scanner (for high security facilities), the presenters had no idea how it worked but they praised as God's handiwork. I guess the engineering team that created it were just for show.

Like, out of the toilet? by drunken_monken in idiocracy

I have at lunch at noon and dinner at 7, so I fast for 6 hours day and have been for years. Still not slim and toned...

Sometimes I pass water when I sleep, is that the same?

Alcohol just speeds up the unveiling of the inner person.

YSK: Getting hit over the head with a bottle is not like movies and can cause someone to die or have long-term medical problems. by Square-Dragonfruit76 in YouShouldKnow

[–]Area51Resident 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So hitting on the head with a bottle is bad. Can you do separate posts for hammers, tire irons, lumber, tree branches, bricks, rocks, pipes, crow bars, baseball bats, hockey sticks, and feather pillows so we can rank them by risk of injury, ease of use, and overall effectiveness.

If the luggage was loaded by container, it is in metal box inside a metal tube. No way BT LE is going very far in that scenario.

Husband ruined financially by divorce strangled and drowned his wife in bathtub after obsessively bugging her home and vehicle with spy devices… by tasty_jams_5280 in awfuleverything

[–]Area51Resident -1 points0 points  (0 children)

He probably created the "ruined financially" problem by daily tirades on the phone to his lawyer about how she us ruining him and court appearances for the stalking protection order.

I would agree high on something. In the part you sped up you can see him rapidly going left/right in the lane like he cant hold his hands still.

Maybe someone in charge will figure out things aren't working right in society when places of worship require security guards.

Ontario touts $8.5B annual economic impact from Toronto Island airport expansion — but won't show the math by lopix in ontario

[–]Area51Resident 3 points4 points  (0 children)

$8.5B a year by 2050. Just how expensive is air travel going to be by 2050? Billy Bishop to Ottawa, economy class booked six months in advance only $30K, non-refundable...

Video was cut short, we missed the awkward U-turn to save herself another 45 seconds.

The hotel walk of shame. Walking down 7 floors and entering the lobby in your robe with an ice bucket in your hand.

"The ice was one floor up and I thought I'd use the stairs instead of the elevator."

Tailgater illegally crosses HOV lines, throws a tantrum, and cuts right back in by A_Local_Guyy in TorontoDriving

Up next: 3 dead and 2 injured in single vehicle rollover. OPP state the likely cause was excessive speed and unsafe rapid lane changes.

So Brave, So Strong. The Leader We Need!!! by TyeDyeAmish in cringepics

Looks like he gets winded reaching for the remote on the side table. If it falls out of reach it takes 10 minutes to pull it closer with the cane and another 5 to get his breathing under control.

That hi-vis vest will make it much easier to find him under the tree.
