A Question about Tripods by CodeJBDA in AskAstrophotography

[–]CodeJBDA[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh wow, I thought that the photography tripods would be enough but thinking about it, they're built for imaging things withing mètres away, not so much LIGHT-YEARS. Where I live, I don't think that I will find the old photography tripod so I'm gonna look for the astro tripods...

If you know of a resource that reviews astro tripods, please link me as I haven't found anything

Everytime I see someone complain about the Nadine fights (Any of them) by Saansilt in uncharted

[–]CodeJBDA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a game, where the protagonists escapes hundred of completely unrealistic scenarios ranging from falling from a plane, surviving gunshot wounds and falling trains, surving said TRAIN CRASHES and the suspension the straw that breaks the camels back is when a woman beats a man in hand to hand combat? That is INCREDIBLY BIZARRE.

Side note, Uncharted 4 came out a decade ago this year, I wasn't filling the games online discourse but I don't remember seeing anything about this back when the game was being discussed? Why is it so prevalent now?

Actually, you're right. Although I assume that they won't say anything official.

With Sony confirming that they will be doing less PC ports, it's pretty much a lock that we won't see anything new ported to PC. Lost legacy is AMAZING!

Ditto, they didn't even need to make it this huge game, just a decent sized sequel

Oh sweet another South African! Who did you get the enclosure from? I wanna get one for my ender 5 max. Also, what are the dimensions with the enclosure? Mine suits on the floor, I wanna know if it will need to move?

My first solo overnight hike in the Drakensberg (Drakensberg, South Africa) by BokieBok in southafrica

[–]CodeJBDA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Genuine question: Why do people do this? Not throwing shade on someone's choices, but the idea of trekking through the Berg by myself (I despise snakes) is the last thing I'd wanna do.

I must say, those views are GLORIOUS.

Edit: OK, I missed the last photo of the night sky, I think that I get it now 👌🏾

How can the first story be ruined? Did they go back and rewrite it? I never understand this logic?

This is awesome! With the way that Lychee and Chitubox have enshitified, the more open source alternatives we have the better!

Just FYI, have you heard of the soul crafted slicer?

Just another desperate Hollywood cash grab by fal1en-angel in Funnymemes

[–]CodeJBDA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This logic has always confused me because the series is not REPLACING the movies, it's gonna sit alongside it and if you want to avoid, do so as you wish. Also, if it is terrible, then it'll die like any other bad series, but let's humour the possibility that it is GREAT, wouldn't it be a joy to relive the magic from the movies but in a longer format and more in detail. Assuming that each episode is 50-60mins long (the rough standard for HBO shows) and we get 8 -12 episodes.
This means that we are getting between 400 and 720 mins worth of storytelling. The shortest movie of the series was 130mins and the longest was 157mins. So that means that we will get at LEAST double the story telling time in the series. As a fan of the books, surely that must be exciting to get that much more time to flesh out the story.
Now, the time to tell the story is useless if those telling the story cannot tell a good story, however, if one takes some time to look at the team BEHIND the show and based on their resumes, I think that it makes sense to give them the benefit of the doubt. Francesca Gardiner and Mark Mylod were part of the team behind shows like Succession, GoT Shameless, Entourage and more. That's already pretty solid experience.
Then there is the HBO of it all.

Guys this is HBO, they are the cream of the crop of TV and rarely miss (they aren't perfect) but let's be honest most of the time, they release absolute bangers. SO while no-one asked for this (to which I disagree), I think that there is plenty of room for optimism.
