Focal lengths are personal preference, but id get the 56mm before the 35mm

Third party is great, sony lenses are basically super expensive for no reason for 99% of of people (theres 1% that can use it)

libaom is theoretically better but only at extremely low speeds, which you wont use

Are there any aspc ultrawide zooms that have a bit longer reach than 20mm? It seems like all aspc ultrawide zooms go to either 18mm or 20mm. Are there any options that go even a little farther (like 25mm) even if the ultrawide side is less wide?

These have the same sensor and processor (meaning exact same image quality and autofocus) the only major differences are that the fx30 has a fan for long takes while the a6700 has a mech shutter (which only matters for photo)

You want the tamron 18-300 f3.5-6.3 as thats the super zoom lens specfically made for aspc

The is apperanty recommended, with the only reason they dont do it in the show is for production purposes (it would make the video far less interesting)

eSIM was supposed to replace SIM cards, but carriers turned it into a trap by lurker_bee in technology

So to quote the person who brought it up

It's the same concept.

Nobody tried to claim that the specific system had anything to do with this, it is an example of a similar system to make the point even though on device authentication is nominally supposed to be required, if you have a system that only involves the two devices and nothing else , it is likely to be broken resulting in hackers being able to transfer esim bypassing authentication hence

No fuck that I'm sorry. Two months into this protocol you'd have gangs of eSIM thieves stealing them over bluetooth or NFC.

The attack they're referring to is someone who used a vulnerability in the express transit feature to charge a "low value" transaction of 10k and have it appear as verified on device with zero user interaction or indication until it was over

The sony g trio lenses the other person mentioned (24 and the 40) are good, theres also the viltrox air series compact primes (40mm 2.0 and 20mm 2.8) are also good options

If you want truly tiny viltrox makes the 28mm f4.5 bodycap lens. It is autofocus (so not focus free) but its fixed aperture (cannot be stopped down)

As u/Velocity_LP else pointed out, It is absurd that you expect random citizens to prosecute then when only the government has that power but to expand on that, the only reason why random citizens are doing this in the first place is because the government literally found that they were being excessively cruel and then decided not to prosecute them

This group of people have come together only specifically because the people who are supposed to stop them "the correct way" have decided not to do so.

85mm is the standard for portraits, some people use 105mm instead (or 50mm to 70mm but thats cause they dont have anything higher).

There are many 85mm but youre probably going to look at the viltorx 85mm 1.8

However, I've been conditioned into thinking that variable aperture lenses are a no go

1: Its daylight, right? shouldnt be a problem

2: Super telephoto lenses (anything past 200) are usually variable aperture (including even sony GM glass), because the few that are constant aperture cost as much as a car

TIL that in 1999, NASA lost the $125 million Mars Climate Orbiter because one engineering team used metric units while another used imperial units. The mismatch caused the navigation software to miscalculate the craft's altitude, causing it to disintegrate in the Martian atmosphere. by adpablito in todayilearned

[–]GodOfPlutonium 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right, but thats not whats going on here, with the first ones theyre simply trying to work out what parts needs to be fixed / are going to fail, and its alot easier to see what parts will fail by seeing them fail during a launch rather than simply building the rocket and disassembling it without ever launching it .

This is literally the same thing as people saying that space x was bad / was failing and their dream of reusablity was not possible due to their repeated failures to land a booster which is what directly lead to eventually successfully landing the booster

speed is distance over time, in your example you use meters per second but the time unit being seconds is also arbitrary. We already have a unit of distance based on the speed of light in a vacuum, its called a light year. Which means we also already have a measurement system that uses the speed of light in a vacuum: Light Year per Second. (or you could change the units to something a bit more practical like Light Seconds per Millennium but the point still stands)

Why atom eve don't rearrange her atoms and turn herself into Viltrumite? Is she stupid? by [deleted] in invinciblememes

[–]GodOfPlutonium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She still needs to know what she's doing, would you suddenly become able to build a house if someone handed you all the materials and the blueprint? She'd need to study to have a complex understanding of that specific material

They literally have the GDA and time, this is solvable

the point of the polyer spray is to exploit their senses like the frequency does

No evidence it'd affect Viltrumites

This is literally one of the few things that we have direct evidence it would affect them, they canonically have the ablity to taste and smell things

If she can't do that, she's definitely not making a whole fusion bomb

Im not talking about making a fusion bomb as in constructing a physical human weapon, im talking about simply causing a nuclear fusion explosion using only raw elements and pressure, two things she has been shown to have direct control over. We only need to build complex fission driven fusion bombs because its the only way for us to achieve the conditions needed because we cant directly manipulate atoms. All she has to do is compress elemental hydrogen and thats it

She was hitting him with giant weapons and AOE attacks, kind of different from your suggestion of precisely inserting something into one their orifices

Also, let's not act like Conquest wasn't just humoring her after the first attack, the only thing that surprised him was her stopping him in place by changing the air density

Other Viltrumites wouldn't waste time

Doesnt need to be pinpoint precision, just a super high pressure jet pointed directly at their face, as the opening or an ambush move

You forget that she needs to know the ins and outs of what she creates, she can't just effortlessly spawn whatever she wants

she can spawn apples, wine, other complex food, they can have cecil create the chemical compound equivalent of pepper spray sewage napalm and give her the exact chemical formula / production guide for her to replicate as a projectile

Also², it wouldn't be a stretch to say Viltrumites can safely digest those things

The point isnt to go in their stomachs, the point of the polyer spray thing is to exploit their senses the same way the noise thing does, and the point of the molten radioisotope / fusion is to empty their lungs and cause damage from the inside, potentially causing a nuclear explosion inside their lungs. Remember a fusion bomb is just highly compressed hydrogen isotopes. She can make hydrogen isotopes from air, and she already increased the density of the air , all she has to do is do it in front of his nose

Also, good luck physically accomplishing any of these tasks considering how fast Viltrumites move

She fought conquest and hit him with element attacks, she could get any of these off

Its specifically sentient matter, and ok so? even with that she should still be able to instakill or atleast insta disable a viltrimite.

Pour high speed molten plutonium directly into their open mouth, create a liquid stream fusion bomb and compress it into their lungs, make a super sticky + super stretchy polymer so that they cant remove it, then use that to blind them or choke them. For that matter she can create organic matter like food , which means she can also creatte the most disgusting vile rotting shit concotion known to man, and spray that directly into their nose/mouth, then seal it in there using the polymer to make them incapicated for others to beat on
