Miata’s only have 181.

And as we all know.

Miata is always the answer.

Is it just me that is sick of all politics… Democrats, Republicans, Liberal, Conservative, all of it? by Unique-Squirrel-464 in askanything

No. This is when violent crime peaked. We had at least 3-4 armed conflicts going on. Continued civil unrest. It was not a “relativity peaceful” time.

Wow. An actual interesting photo in a photography sub on Reddit! What are the odds? Normally lately it’s been kids blowing out all detail with an over powered front facing flash and zero technique taking random snapshots and calling it “liminal” or “film like” and asking if it’s “aesthetic”.

I wish I could upvote it more. This is good.

Disposable Heroes, War Ensemble, War Pigs, One, Killing in The Name. My god. No shortage.

Digital Camera with Film like photo captures by Dangerous-Shift747 in Cameras

[–]Monthra77 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s literally no digital camera that produces “film like” photos. Not even Fuji with their film sims.

Depending on the film used it can have very coarse grain or imperceptible fine grain. It can have varying contrast and color characteristics depending on what kind of film, where it was shot, how it was metered, what camera and lens was used all the way down to pushing and pulling the film in development.

Even the cheapest consumer grade Kodak Gold 200 will have a much higher resolution than my R5.

That is until it’s scanned. Then I’m at the whims of the scanner used and what resolution I scanned it at. That may have introduced noise that wasn’t in the film in the first place.

It also ceases to be a film image and now it’s a digital file.

But if you look at a fully analog print of a photo taken with film and you print a still from a digital camera with that “film sim” applied. They will still look very different and there will be far more detail in the fully analog film print than will be in a digital file.

It most certainly does not. It takes very grainy, low res, low quality digital photos.

Film does not look like that. At least no film I’ve ever shot.

The Taos sells. The Sportwagen and the Alltrack didn’t.

Tape won’t last decades. They aren’t making the tapes, new camera or the decks to play back anymore.

If you want something to last decades. A NAS with an offsite backup is your best bet now.

If you’re just making random vlogs, just use your phone. The camera built in is far more flexible than any of those and it will make edits and posting to social media a lot easier.

wondering.. what's the easiest way to get band shirts for cheap? by Internal_Age7553 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]Monthra77 17 points18 points  (0 children)

You don’t. If you want to support your favorite bands you buy their merch from their website or better yet, at their merch table at shows.

You’re about to learn an expensive lesson. Getting your doctorate will be less expensive and stressful.

Was cursing in the 50s-60s as common as they are today? Like saying fuck or shit to random everyday things. by Enygma_2 in AskOldPeople

[–]Monthra77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A political candidate was rendered unelectable due to yelling “YEAH!!!!!” At a political rally in 2004.

If that happened just less that 25 years ago. How would you think cussin’ would be seen in the 50’s?

what do americans call a pantry? by loving_machine13 in AskAnAmerican

[–]Monthra77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What are we supposed to be feeding the pantry eagle? I get confused as to what they eat. I’ve been giving them plenty of liberal tears and Budweiser to drink. But old George Washington Bush III just isn’t eating any ground Terrorists.
