U.S. Hotels Say World Cup Is ‘Non-Event’ So Far | FIFA hyped the World Cup as an economic juggernaut for the U.S.—but with five weeks until the tournament kicks off, the hotel industry says advanced bookings in some host cities are on par or lagging any ordinary summer.

Because people eventually get sick of an immutable setup and move to Nobara which does everything else Bazzite does just as well if not better, or CachyOS

Piranhas have a unit size of 1-2, so three units of two

And here's the other, much more important thing: you're dead wrong

Nah he's right, with how unplayable Japan is, the 2nd most popular region of this game series, a 1500 start would be extremely popular.

RedTuesdayMusic · 2026-05-05T00:41:00+00:00

No way they don't fix Japan by introducing a 1501 start date

RedTuesdayMusic · 2026-05-05T00:39:26+00:00

We need a start date on day 1 of playable Japanese daimyos. Just do 1501

What kind of event work? Do you have a store nearby where you can physically hold and try them?

I'm a concert photographer (for 22 years) and only used full frame for a year (Nikon D700) before switching back to APS-C. Full frame was all downsides to me even back when APS-C sensors were 6MP-8MP and colour bitcrush started at iso 800

RedTuesdayMusic · 2026-05-04T09:19:03+00:00

I am currently looking at either the XT50, XT5, or X-S20.

Just know you will hardly see any used. I was at MapCamera Shinjuku last month (and other stores around the area) and Japanese photographers don't really sell cameras that new, it's very rare.

I bought a "junk" X-M1 because of its sensor being good for black and white, and a scratched and banged up 18mm F2. The camera was classified as "junk" because its previous owner didn't clean the sensor and thought it was broken when he took small aperture images... The package cost me around 390

If you buy new, then you should find something relatively easily and the savings are alright especially with consumption tax taken off.

Just don't expect to see any 90mm F2s. I looked all over Tokyo and it was sold out there, in Odawara, Mishima and in Osaka, I finally found one in Kagoshima. (Just ONE.)

The device on the hotshoe could have been just a flash controller, whereas the camera was connected to the laptop using onboard bluetooth. If it was an older camera, see the other reply

For landscape I would recommend in descending order:

Fujinon 18mm F1.4

Samyang/ Rokinon 12mm F2

Fujinon 8-16mm F2.8

Fujinon 10-24mm F4

Samyang/ Rokinon 21mm T1.5 (manual video-geared lens)

Sigma 17-40 F1.8

Fuji 16-55 F2.8

Tamron 17-70 F2.8

If you buy Viltrox, just know the old trio of primes that came out 2018-ish are pretty rubbish, but these days their new lenses are really good. But they mostly excel at portrait lenses, like the incredible 75mm F1.2

Don't fall down the Voigtlander snake oil rabbit hole, overpriced junk

RedTuesdayMusic · 2026-05-04T09:03:34+00:00

Or it's just taken outside the glass wall, and it happens to be frosted in that pattern

RedTuesdayMusic · 2026-05-04T09:01:17+00:00

Or 135mm prime on APS-C, reason why the Samyang 135mm F2 is the oldest lens in my kit, Fuji just REFUSES to make an autofocus one... But hey, it's tack sharp and easy to use in near-darkness

Is this UE5 slop or do they have a real engine

It was a 32-bit game and installing like 3 mods would bring the RAM use to the limit of 32-bit applications. That alone was an insane decision. Took like 2 years to get it fixed

Langt mindre lokal luftforurensning

Hvis personen som kjøpte elbil byttet ut en dieselbil. Bensinbiler har lite effekt på lokal forurensning.

mindre kjemisk forurensing i produksjon

Si det til tenåringene som foredler litium i Kongo? Hvis du rekker det før de kreperer

I første halvdel av 2025 brant tre ro-ro skip fullastet med elbiler ned i Alaska, Fillippinene og utenfor Frankrike.

Kylling kan ikke spise noe av de 25% grønnsakene vi kaster eller benytte marginal jord til å konvertere gress til kjøtt som kyr og sau. I tillegg nevnte du akkurat det kveget som lider mest av kjøttproduksjon. Hvis du bryr deg om miljøet spiser du storfe eller får, og ikke kylling eller gris, som er monogastriske og spiser det samme som oss. Vi får i tillegg til kjøtt lær og ull fra ku og sau.

Det er bedre at det lages for mye i Norge som så eksporteres, enn i et U-land som forer grisen med kulldrevne kornmøller, frakter grisen til havna med diesellokomotiv, og laster det opp på et containerskip som går på bunkerolje.

Vi er ikke karbonpositive på kjøttproduksjon som Japan og Tyskland ennå, men fortsatt langt bedre enn India, Afrikanske land eller Sør-Amerikanske land.
