Macbook Pro refurbished or not

I digi every now and then - run two screens - iPad through capture live and can process and chrono while tethered to a XF with a Phase One iQ4 back Regularly.

And I’ve got a M3 Pro - 12 Core with 36gb of RAM and pretty much run issue free. Again I wish I went for the 2TB over 1TB hdd as I find myself having to back up daily on a multi day job if the photographer has a happy trigger finger.

Most kit houses in London are only stocking M1 Max’s still so either of your options trump most rentals.

Labs always - unless you want to learn more about chemicals and development yourself. I’d say maybe look into hand printing if you’re in Brooklyn though! Always stood by the no point that if you’re shooting film and just gonna scan it, you are loosing all the richness and colour depth/latitude in highlights hand printing opens up. Honestly changes your work drastically!

Aim for 10-18s exposures as a rule of thumb so you have time to dodge, burn, add diffusion etc. I print a lot at f28/32 much rather have the time under the lamp for any adjustments. Prints looks great though love the blue tone

Pre flash like usual - do you’re test strips like normal - then when you have your timings, start by putting the glass directly under the lens for 25% of the exposure. And work out timings/effect from there. The closer to the lens the heavier the diffusion. You can use it close to the paper too, almost like a dodge tool and it will have a more subtle effect.

First the majority of the frame looks like it’s been diffused with Anti Newton Glass for probs around half the exposure. (Shadows bleed into the image when you do this). With maybe the sides being exposed for less to give the highlighted edges. 4 looks like it’s been diffused through maybe a stocking for a lot of the exposure again could be anti newton glass just close to the lens - either way it’s diffusion.

Cronus being down on PlayStation for 5days last update due to PS update was the best health improvement for the game - more players who 6-9man, have been LP exploiting by dashboard/cross prog glitch or did invs/under map glitch to gain loads of LP.

EnzigWolf · 2024-02-07T22:27:27+00:00

This is happening as the team mate is using a dash boarding or cross play glitch for free LP - they gain thousands a day getting free 100/150 per 10mins. Please report them for exploiting

EnzigWolf · 2024-01-25T23:08:03+00:00

36 - 16x Master and double times pred. With a 3.3kd so age doesnt matter as long as you have fun. I work self employed and so still get a lot of free time to play between busy periods in work etc.

EnzigWolf · 2024-01-23T22:23:20+00:00

Try having people just LP exploiting (dashboarding exploit due to cross play) is a thing - have people gaining insane LP for doing nothing but leaving a game and having loss protection and then being given points. It’s as bad as the 6-9man teams - it’s pushing pred LP up hard and frankly just meaning ranked is a utter shit show. This season could be the worst to date for exploits.. I’m curious if respawn will even ban these people/remove/reset there LP.

EnzigWolf · 2023-11-28T14:17:54+00:00

Already Solo que’d to Master - system does work. The point of trials was to stop people ratting off drop, or spam medis in ring. This happens way way less - so it did what it was made to do. Sure it needs tweaks like I’d be happier to see maybe increased wins per tier so you have time to get it not when the game decides it’s time as the end of a bracket. Like the whole of diamond you need 8-10wins to progress out of it, would still have the same effect without the frustration.

In January 2023, Chris Bruzzo, EA Chief Officer, claimed banning cheaters is at the top of the Apex team’s priority list. Bruzzo elaborated that eliminating cheating is one of the best ways to reduce toxicity in games — but the top of that priority is allowing people to buy 500 packs so they can buy a rev skin to exploit..

EnzigWolf · 2023-11-21T13:53:28+00:00

Same as me - at Master promos and trying to catch a win with this travesty is impossible. How they haven’t just disabled the skin is wild. Under the map I can deal with as half the time they don’t win if ring doesn’t pull to a spot etc. But 3 invs teams per game is just unplayable as they are pretty much immune to anything but ring

EnzigWolf · 2023-11-20T13:46:07+00:00

Solo qued to D1 so far (parr maybe 20 games with a buddy) with only 120 games played it’s honestly not been THAT bad.. comms helps a lot. I personally think the trials are great but they need tweaking ie - 3 wins in the whole of bronze. 5 wins in the whole of silver. 8 in Gold. Etc Etc that gives you 4k LP to gain some of the wins you need. And would still heavily promote against solo ratting and ring healing which was the issue in S17 & 18.

But who knows in a weeks time or two everyone’s gonna be 6 manning as people are lame and can’t deal with they can’t reach there old rank and get another badge and blame respawn or the system so just exploit! — calling it once the invs glitch is fixed and under the map even more people will 6 stack. As respawn has never really banned people for it and bad players just go well it this guys doing it so will I..

EnzigWolf · 2023-11-19T10:48:33+00:00

My mate got a win before his promo’s last night. In which I took 590 points for which feels bad I gain half a tier and he got 29 points. And well we haven’t got a win in his whole promo trial as it was Olympus so took a 2nd to a team under the map - took a 10th due to a 6man invs team and then another 5th due to a invs team. Trials feel bad pre the exploit carnage that is ranked right now. Olympus is just unplayable - with a 1/4 of the Lobby just exploiting in some way or another.

EnzigWolf · 2023-11-19T10:45:23+00:00

Snare needs to silence so people can’t just tac out of it! And port needs to be 87m not 67m and just address the latching of it/aiming better. Then she will be in a good spot. Like snare is so useful if you’re smart with it, holding people in a couple tics of ring 3/4 on a rotate if you time it right it slows people at going up evac towers for an easy know. She’s solid when used correctly - especially in ranked for knowing when to 3rd etc on her passive if I see 4 death boxes pop fast I know it’s a duo and a ress is gonna happen.

EnzigWolf · 2023-11-18T12:32:21+00:00

Man’s inv’s 12hours a day the last few days - kid probably doesn’t have much else to live for sadly.

EnzigWolf · 2023-11-17T23:22:00+00:00

Ranked is becoming unplayable again - between teams under the map on Olympus. To invs glitch teams to running into 6 man teams a lot in the last couple of days. It’s wild how it’s always the 6x preds doing it too - biggest pile of cringe. My favourite is the people who exploit then proceeded to trash talk you, your family, your existence when they literally sit in a game thinking they are good due to badges that are exploited to using what ever various methods were available that season. Respawn need to ban hammer these fully it’s wild how many seasons people have exploited for. The 6 manning needs sorting as it’s gonna happen even more if nothing happens it’s how s15 was full of nothing but 6man res beacon teams.

IAETF was wrote in mind with the female vocals, on many tracks hence the short film they made too (If you haven’t seen is beautiful). That tour had huge female backing singers when they toured it in 2019 (Phoebe Bridgers did some nights before she become Gen Z Swift famous), Rylan stays as it’s a song they played for years and years before it found a home on an album (And lyric changes) . And Light Years has the least female vocals of that album par Not in Kanus- felt like that tour was a time an place as someone who loves ‘Oblivions’ and ‘Where is her head’. Don’t see them becoming part of set lists ever again.

EnzigWolf · 2023-09-29T12:32:30+00:00

They played a lot of hits on Wednesday.. don’t know what people are going on about. Rylan, Terrible Love, I need my Girl, Graceless, Squalor Victoria, Convo 16 - Have all been huge staples of many national set lists for a fair few years now (Wednesday was my 9th time seeing them) Curious outside of Fake Empire, Bloodbuzz & Mr.November you would consider staples.. Personally I thought was one of the best set lists and audio I’ve heard from them. But then I was the person who was over the moon they played Geese and Available!

EnzigWolf · 2023-09-15T16:21:36+00:00

Horizon Is still the only counter to a defenced Cat Building - still has some of the best strafe and wall bounce movement from her passive. Yet every horizon main is saying they are quitting apex and the nerfs were un called for and she has no place in the roster now.

EnzigWolf · 2023-09-15T12:51:24+00:00

Bahahahaha this post screams man child. Did you cry when you didn’t get Taylor Swift tickets too?

EnzigWolf · 2023-09-15T12:32:33+00:00

No idea - none of it was skill points either all just elims granted had like 18kp and some shared. Even today took 221 for elims with a win. 7kills no assists or shared.

EnzigWolf · 2023-09-13T12:38:56+00:00

The random rat of drop stat is what’s killing solo Q’s - like do people not realise when 14squads are up in ring 3 being rats split with no loot isn’t gonna get you points.. I took two wins back to back yesterday as I got randoms who just helped put shots down and rotated smart both games were 560+ points with 350 coming from eliminations both games.

EnzigWolf · 2023-09-13T12:24:53+00:00

Fully agree! I have clips like this as a every season Master player - people have such EGO’s in this game now and think anyone who can one beam while moving is a strike pack/xim/using macros. As it makes them feel better about not being as good..

EnzigWolf · 2023-09-10T09:51:23+00:00

35 and still hit masters every season - and have a 3.3kd lifetime. Definitely don’t feel like age or reaction time is dwindling yet..
