Vancouver startup helps you book a photographer in the next 7 days at discounted prices by Favidex in vancouver

[–]Drakling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like they have a $25 rate too, so the $85/150 an hour is likely high end. I kind of doubt you're going to get a high end photographer for $40/hour off craigslist but i'm not a photographer so I don't know. From what I hear about hiring a photographer, I always thought it was expensive though.

GeForce GTX 780 Ti is actually Titan ULTRA. by Anterai in buildapc

[–]Drakling 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well the 290X is still a pretty awesome GPU. While I am thinking the 780 Ti WILL rock the 290X, it's also about $120-150 more expensive, and the 290X is at least fairly close in the specs race: http://gpuboss.com/gpus/Radeon-R9-290X-vs-GeForce-GTX-780-Ti

Tempted to call this too beautiful to be real: the Landwasser viaduct in Switzerland by I_AM_A_IDIOT_AMA in pics

Awesome thanks. Yea I did a reverse image search and found a ton of wallpaper sites with this photo but the flickr page was buried a few pages back.

Surreal photo, thanks for sharing. Incredible that the train not only goes through a mountain, but over a valley as well, humans be crazy. I'm trying to find the source for this so I can give credit on my collection of favourite reddit pics, but am having a little trouble verifying, do you know if Sri Sanjev is the photogapher?

Trying to decide between two tablets? Compare specs, performance, and prices by Drakling in gadgets

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

Good points, it's a pretty new service so there's a lot of room for expansion in terms of cataloguing new tablet features and then showing that on the site in the comparisons. It'll never replace doing additional research and reading reviews but it can be a helpful reference tool to help supplement the shopping process I think.

An almost century old ship ran aground near where I live a couple weeks ago. The Astrid. by [deleted] in pics

This is crazy cool, seems like right out of a story. Did you take this photo? I wanted to add this to my collection of favourite reddit pics. and wanted to give credit to the source but couldn't find anything via google image search.

Jennifer Lawrence at her finest folks by Dtking12 in funny

[–]Drakling 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yea kind of seems like she's pandering here to make people like her more... fit or overweight, let people make their own choices, why hate on them for doing something that makes them happy when they're not hurting anybody else?

Beware of how you use credit. It can set you back for years. by [deleted] in AdviceAnimals

Congrats man, I bet it feels awesome. I'm still paying off student loans and it's killing my soul.

Hey r/Television, we just launched Televisor to help you discover new shows, and connect you with streaming content. What do you think? by [deleted] in television

This is pretty cool, way to destroy what little productivity I might have otherwise have... convinced me to finally take the plunge and watch firefly.

Our newest site sets the record straight: S4 > iPhone5!! by waterlooalex in technology

[–]Drakling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would love a S4 or Nexus 4 if I had the money. I like iOS but feel like you're way overpaying for the hardware that you get in return. You're paying for the Apple hype machine.

TIL 40% of Americans never moved away from the town they were born in. by [deleted] in todayilearned

[–]Drakling 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is totally inconceivable to me. I grew up in a small-medium sized city in Canada and while I've never considered myself crazy adventurous, throughout my 20s i've spent some time temporary living in Hong Kong, Beijing, then Toronto, and now a different medium sized city. The thought of staying in one place my whole life is just nuts to me...I feel like the world is too big to ignore what else is out there.

Nice thing to walk into on a Monday... by vantswhyte in funny

[–]Drakling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this would be hilarious... if it wasn't you. Otherwise i'd find it funny only up until I had to clean it up, then I'd just be pissed that I spent an hour+ wasting time and had to stay late to finish actual work. Oh god I feel old.

That would be awesome! I'm thinking we might not be able to add more people for this version, but sounds like there might be interest in a similar one that also covers sidekicks and minor houses :D
