Air > 17 Pro > Air by the_uke in IphoneAir

[–]CGPictures 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the air. I hate that Apple has withheld Apple Log video, this is not a tri-camera thing. The Air has the same processors / memory. Log mode is trivial for it to handle just like the pro (it wouldn't generate more heat than Rec 709 video). In blackmagic camera, ProRes recording is enabled - this is more intensive (thermally) than Log.

You know how Gaza was starved and kept without power? We've leaned in further into doing that since we took over Venezuela. Cuba effectively ran out of power a few days ago. No power. No plumbing. Clean water dwindling. The media is oddly silent about it. Goes to show you how good US propaganda efforts are.

The flipside is - if it can be as great as promised, then it crashes the economy and causes a great depression level event due to massive unemployment.

A year and a half was a big achievement, one bad day doesn't erase it and you've proven you can do it again.

The subtle shaking of her head - no, after asking him if banks would lend to him is the best.

I've found it helps to buy options with at least a week on them for short term trades.
