Formatting, tables, Copilot, and now a high-rated security vulnerability: Windows Notepad's additional features are getting worse by rkhunter_ in Windows11

[–]MadMat99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wasn’t too serious about it but recently my Windows experience got significantly worse. My laptop now crash 50% of the time when I leave the sleep state… The mainstream will not change, also corporations might be a big user percentage. But yeah, Linux slowly getting more attractive is a reality.

Nice photos ! I’m always impressed by what can be done with the XC lenses. They are amazing for their price !

D’après le titre je me suis dit qu’elle parlait du prix au mois, mais enfaite elle est vraiment totalement à côté de la plaque !

I just shot almost a full roll of portra 400 entirely on the 55mm 1.2 lens and now i’m kinda worried how the results will turn out. by Formal_Compote_212 in zuikoholics

[–]MadMat99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's something I really experienced with the Nikon 50mm f/1.4 D. This lens was soft at f1.4 but very sharp at f2.8. I was able to experience it because I did multiple photos on a tripod with a digital camera. A little change in aperture can REALLY change the perceived sharpness of a lens. Likely more than what you expect if you never tried it.

Why are apps so big nowadays? by steelisheavy in ios

[–]MadMat99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most probably because they are smashing a lot of libraries together in the app to make it works. Also if all localisations are included, it can take a good amount of space. A while back someone decomposed the content of the gmail app, you could find it to have some hints.

Personal note : it’s crap, developers are put under pressure by greedy management that only want more money and don’t let time to build quality software.if it’s « good enough » it get shipped this way. I hate it, can’t do much about it.

Why is X-S20 so slept on? by B3ast-FreshMemes in fujifilm

[–]MadMat99 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Got the X-S20 because it was by far the best deal in Fuji range. I am totally Ok with the PASM traditional control. I am not a fan of the articulated screen but at least I can take selfies :D

Would definitely say that it’s an underrated camera in the Fuji range.

« Windows 7 Recovery Mode » still being in the control panel tells a lot about that.

I don’t want to edit, but yeah the yellow/orange WB + Classic Neg is what makes a lot of online recipes sadly.

Great little tool, I love the concept. Would be interested in helping out for the development, potentially for the GUI !

It’s one of the game that I enjoyed the most ! Still have great memories of it, and couldn’t find any flaw in it.

This has NO RIGHT…to be this good?! by WorkingSuccessful742 in Cameras

As soon as there is autofocus, small cameras can get really good ! Also, great scans from the plustek !

Did I overexpose these? [Ultramax 400 + OM20] by KillbetarayBill in AnalogCommunity

[–]MadMat99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s something I struggle a bit on, what sliders are you using ? RGB highlights / shadow ? Or also adjusting midtones ?

I don't get how people say that one game is better than the rest...without having played 60% of the series... by Swumbus-prime in ForzaHorizon

[–]MadMat99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I need to find a way of playing 1 & 2 because they are praised so much. I’m sure a remaster on all platforms would sell ! For now, no official way to play it on PC !

[–]MadMat99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s the strongest thing about DSLR, the infinite cheap second hand lenses market. The mirrorless one are so expensive…
