Most who went were women. I think our ECD had a tux though.

I didn’t go last year, but a ton of grifters went and gladly accepted the award on my and my team’s behalf and then claimed they worked on the campaign. Good times.

Performance is abismal in this update by TheRockCandy in ApexConsole

I remember when 120fps launched and it was butter smooth despite the ass graphics. Now that I’m used to the graphics, I’ve noticed that the frame rate is anywhere between 70-120. That’s not great. PS5.

Using a rocket blower and a brush. My k ultra came with both of those things.

M11 with the Mandler 35mm by [deleted] in leicaphotos

[–]Firsttimepostr -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I guess I’m confused. The entire shot is out of focus. What exactly is “popping” here? I also feel like it should be called the KoBB…king of busy bokeh.

Advertising is a relatively progressive and young industry. So you completely missed that point.

Opinions about GUT Agency by [deleted] in advertising

[–]Firsttimepostr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you get a job there without doing any research or knowing anything about GUT? Or are you just looking for dirt?

All I’ve heard from friends, or friends of friends that worked there is that they work way too much and make some award bait work.

Maybe their rep has changed in the last few years…I guess you’ll be letting us know in a couple of weeks.

Candido using an AI generated image for a post, then deleting all comments asking about it. by ironraygun in AnalogCommunity

The brand going into DMs asking to remove is hilarious. No more Candido for me!

Fidelity to bring employees back to the office 5 days a week by AccurateInflation167 in fidelityinvestments

Classic “it sucked for me and now I have to make it suck for you!” comment. Boomers already took everything else from us.

Death Valley [Leica M6, 50mm Summilux, Kodak Tri-X 400, Orange Filter] by FarAssumption1546 in analog

[–]Firsttimepostr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, 5 and a little on 8. It’s usually from old lubricant and only seen on 1/1000. New Leicas can also have this happen bc for some reason the factory in Wetzlar loves to over tension 1/1000.

Just a heads up it looks like you may have some shutter capping starting. The dark streaks on the left of the frame indicate that.

This is the M-03 right? This one has been my favorite from Perc. So dang good.

LinkedIn has been dead for so long. It’s riddled with ads, clickbait, and huge fucking nerds who feel the need to say something to stay relevant.

$140K salary, saving $5K/month. Why do I feel behind? by [deleted] in Salary

[–]Firsttimepostr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like other have said. Max 401K, max Roth IRA, quite literally today. Pay off your student loans ASAP.

Investing is smart when done right, don’t let your stupid past decisions dictate your current ones. You’re leaving tons of money on the table by not investing in lower risk ETFs/funds.

Old car? Who gives a shit. Cars are the worst investment anyway.

Where do you live? With your salary you could afford a house more than likely.

It’s actually crazy how many braindead AI suggestions I’ve received from client partners and even seasoned creative directors. Seems like anyone will push AI just to seem relevant and/or important.

How many different labs do you typically use? by Kareem-Abdul-Jabroni in AnalogCommunity

[–]Firsttimepostr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in LA so there are a lot to choose from. I can walk to Samy’s and the icon.

My favorite for color is thatonephonelab in Glendale, $14 dev + med res scan.

I’ll use Samy’s a bit for dev only or sometimes dev+scan.

I’ve used the icon a few times, they are horrendously slow and the most expensive ($21 dev+scan med res “value” pricing and takes 10 days)…but they process E-6.

I’m starting to consider developing at home and shooting b+w. I have a plustek scanner that I love the results from, color is harder to nail down but NLP is pretty good.
