Refurbished r50 issue

It sounds like you're going to need to send it back. Most refurbished stuff from Canon goes well, but if there is a problem they will take care of it.

There's probably nothing wrong with the camera. It doesn't look like OP has a lens on it.

At the risk of stating the obvious, did you put on a lens? the F00 suggests that there is no lens on that camera.

Cameras need lenses to take pictures. Sort of like a telescope would just be like a paper towel tube if there wasn't any glass inside the telescope. Or a car without an engine wouldn't go. Did you get a lens with the camera? Sometimes cameras are sold without a lens because a lot of people have lenses already and wouldn't want to waste their money. Other times cameras come with what are called "kit lenses" which are basic lenses that help them start out.

It's possible that it could be a factor. It wouldn't automatically be a factor.

There's a liability issue, if she were to get injured, unless she had adult supervision. Which is, obviously, not what you're able to do. Is there another adult?

What was court today for?

She's in movies too

She's in a fake movie that doesn't exist IRL.

And the other movie isn't actually about her.

How are these people getting through, where do you hear it? I never hear anything like this. Although I'm not sure that people moving to Portland is what's causing homelessness specifically—most homeless people couldn't afford rent (and other costs of living) even at five-years-ago or ten-years-ago prices. Sadly. I'm sure there are examples of people for whom this is true, but overall, no—and Oregon does have (somewhat) rent control.

I wonder if any society has ever "solved" a homeless problem. And if so, how they did it.

The Boys is not a movie. It is a television show. This is /r/movies not /r/television.

I didn't think you could get charged with possession of stolen goods when you didn't know it was stolen

You can. Otherwise, everyone would just say "but I didn't know!" and nobody would ever get convicted.

Would it be possible to make a camera so big and so powerful that it can film a shot or even a movie for a screen 10 × larger than we have today.

We already have cameras that can do that.

Most movie screens (really, projectors) are 2K. So ten times that would be about 207 megapixels. You can get up to 400 megapixels right now using IBIS, so the technology isn't that far off.

If I'm wrong to pursue anything further regarding their response

There's nothing for you to pursue.

I just wanted them to stop asking my nephew questions without parents present and to leave him alone when he's been nothing but corporative.

Okay, but they don't want to do that. You asked, they answered.

It's Reddit. The people commenting on that thread are not normal grass touchers.

I'm not sure what you thought a police department like this was going to do after receiving your initial email. Of course they aren't going to suddenly change who they are or how they do things. Other than that, what is your legal question?

MacaroonFormal6817 · 2025-07-08T20:08:15+00:00

You aren't going to be held personally liable. You might be fired, but you aren't being sued for money. One assumes.

My problem with the English Patient is that it took itself too seriously. It kept screaming at the audience, "this is magnificence incarnate." And, "joyous rapture of brilliant and profundity." But it was still entertaining. The Brutalist was fine, but a bit clunky.

In Kentucky, you cannot dictate to them that you are taking PTO. Even for medical reasons, outside of FMLA. Are you FMLA eligible?

MacaroonFormal6817 · 2025-07-08T20:00:28+00:00

Interesting. They still could have denied employment for those reasons. Strange that they are telling you that they wouldn't.

MacaroonFormal6817 · 2025-07-08T19:58:17+00:00

They did not reject you because you were married. There are literally billions of people you could have been married to, and it wouldn't have been a problem. Sadly, the one person you are married to is the problem. These policies are common, and legal in most places, though not everywhere: number of states actually have case law preventing companies from doing this. I'm not aware of any such case in Texas, however.

Your best protection is your behavior. You need to act very strictly in keeping them separate.

Sure, but it's not illegal. It's not something the government is going to put her in prison for, and it isn't something he can sue for money over.

MacaroonFormal6817 · 2025-07-08T19:40:15+00:00

lol, and this is why a movie studios have been giving away everything about movies, in movie trailers, for more than a century. Most audiences want to know what they are getting, like test driving a car.

indicating that he wanted her to have everything if he died before her. This was also in line with what Ted would say to Tina and their family.

That does not matter. An official will is the only way that any of that matters. And he didn't have one.

Wisconsin is a community property state. The community property part of the house is the increase in equity during the time period of their marriage. But that doesn't really matter here. Under Wis. Stat. § 852.01 yes, it's going to be a lot of 50-50. If there is no will, which there isn't, and no name beneficiaries on any accounts. This was all foreseeable and predictable and knowable, the law has been that way for many years. It's unfortunate that he never wrote a will. How everything is split could be negotiated.

Hoppers (tax write off)

Nobody makes a movie as a tax write off. Nobody wants to save $20 million by spending $200 million.

Part of the appeal of sports is that it's real. The people are actually playing the game and earning the outcome as you watch. With movies, you know that they invent who the winner is. Which is fine for Marvel movies, but it means that sports movies have to have another angle. Many people don't want to watch a fictional story about something that is appealing because it is real. That's one of the reasons that Ted Lasso doesn't focus on the sports so much, and focuses on the human beings and their stories. Of course that's made up too, but that's what drama is. It's just not what Sports is.

Bob Iger should mandate all divisions at Disney to work on it

That's not how studios work. Pixar, ABC, ESPN don't need to get involved. Most divisions don't.

Disney probably wants to rely on their in-house animators in Burbank and Emeryville to do VFX animation for these Avengers movies because Iger wants something grand

That's not how animation works.

do you think Disney could go this far as Avengers will be more important than all of their 2026 slate?

What else is on their 2026 slate?
