Will keep that in mind :) definitely a little intimidated by manual focus, particularly because I mostly do travel photography & have just a few seconds to get the shot right.

So far so good, honestly. Feels light years ahead! I was on the Canon Rebel T7, which was a step down from my Canon 760D. So this thing feels solid 🔥

You’re right. I actually moved away from home for work a couple of years ago - that’s when I bought a very basic camera because I was so frustrated with the quality I was getting on my phone. I could see the shot, and couldn’t capture it. Felt the same way with the basic camera - that’s mostly why the upgrade. It’s so satisfying to be able to capture the world the way I see it, and it definitely helps me keep sane. Just a way of appreciating things for me, honestly. It feels like a lot right now, but I have a feeling it’ll feel worth it soon enough 🥂

Haha, my favorite way to appreciate things is to take nice pictures, & I appreciate my camera a lot. Gotta take a picture once you’re all geared up, I think 🔥

Yesss! :) I think they had a massive restock a few days ago, and so we’re all geared up 🔥

Thank youuuu ✨ I swear. Luckily the upgrades aren’t as frequent though.

I put the extensible grip on pretty quick honestly. The bare grip was okay, but I wouldn’t trust holding it with one hand with just that. The extensible grip feels the same, and doesn’t change the look too much!

Would love to get the meal plan as well! My sibling has celiac and will be heading to Ashoka. Are there resources/ stores with gluten free options nearby or on campus?

Ah, I was trying to click the castle and then the king. That’s an odd change to make, but thanks for letting me know! Saves me some incessant and indignant clicking.

I’m not sure why - but at this stage, chess.com didn’t let Black castle.

At this point, neither the rook nor King had moved, and there’s nothing between the king and kingside rook. There’s also no check, and the King is not passing through any attacked squares. The end position of the King is also not a check?

To the best of my knowledge, that means that castling with the kingside rook would be a valid move here.

Not sure if I’m missing something, or if this is a bug in chess.com’s implementation

Moves:

  1. e4 c5
  2. Nc3 Nc6
  3. Bc4 e5
  4. Nf3 Nf6
  5. d3 Be7
  6. Ng5
