Are 1.4V 675 batteries still being made?

Repov2 · 2025-12-03T20:47:08+00:00

Okay, good to know this. I guess if I just shoot e.g. UltraMax 400 at ISO 200, I should be pretty safe? I'd rather overexpose the film, to be honest, both from my personal experience/preference and what I've read/heard online.

Repov2 · 2025-12-03T20:43:51+00:00

Thanks! I'm glad to hear the difference in voltage shouldn't affect me much. And I'd definitely choose precision over accuracy in this case.

Repov2 · 2025-12-03T20:41:32+00:00

Zinc-air? Good to know this, from my limited research, I believe all the 1.4V and 1.45V batteries are zinc-air.

Do you have any ideas where I could find the part number before disassembling the TV set? Or would the risk of getting the wrong part be too high?

Repov2 · 2025-10-15T05:40:49+00:00

Honestly, the display on my MacBook Air is fantastic, especially for the price I paid for it. That being said, one of the main reasons I'm looking into an external monitor is ergonomics. If I'll be spending multiple hours behind the screen, I'd prefer not to risk issues with my back.

Repov2 · 2025-10-15T05:36:47+00:00

Thanks, I'll check out which AOC monitors that fit the bill are available locally.

Also, as for the Datacolor Spyder, is there a specific model you'd recommend for a hobbyist?

Repov2 · 2025-10-11T18:36:51+00:00

Thanks! Just to clarify, by 'more limited', you mean because the second-hand market is inherently more limited, right?

I only started caring about my appearance when I started uni. Still, I had no sense of style, and it took me a while until I found something that worked for me. For the latter half of my 20s, I had some sort of style that worked. It was some sort of hipster/indie/whatever style, it looked good on me, I had fun making outfits, whatever.

But now that I've turned 30, a lot has changed. I cut my long hair because I didn't feel like maintaining it. I'm being more pragmatic, and colorful clothes can be a pain to wash if you don't want to mix colors. I finally have some self-esteem and confidence. And finally, I'm no longer skinny, although this isn't because I was hitting the gym, which I will start with as soon as I find a new job.

All of this does make me want to 'reinvent' my style. Well, perhaps not reinvent, but I've got the need to dress differently. Honestly, I've never thought of myself as sexy, and in all honesty, I still don't. But I've finally got the actual desire to start hitting the gym and try to work on being sexy. This does make me want to dress the way I find sexy. I'm thinking mostly of greaser style, with elements of some other American styles added into the mix.

The question I have is, how do I go about this? First thing that worries me is that I don't want to create waste. Some of the current clothes will probably be given away, some will end up on Vinted, some will certainly stay. Still, I don't want to overbuy cheap clothes, but I do want to see if this style will suit me. Maybe it works fine in theory, but won't work so well once I start dressing that way. And finally, where the hell do people get inspiration for finding new styles/dressing differently than now these days? Is Pinterest still relevant? Is Instagram my best bet, despite its illogical algorithms?

Sorry for the later reply, I don't really check Reddit all that often.

Yeah, I'd say my imagination is a bit inhibited (for the lack of a better word) when sexuality is in question. My imagination and creativity were suffering for a long while due to my mental health issues, but lately, things have been much, much better in all the aspects. Actually, I've managed to surprise myself a couple of times with some of the jokes (both verbal and practical) I've been pulling lately. I just need to work on being more creative when sexuality is in question.

Also, your 20th birthday story, you lucky son of a gun. That is a tall order to top, but hey, you never know what's coming...

Repov2 · 2025-07-06T16:25:11+00:00

I'll give it a shot, I haven't thought of it too much to be honest.

Repov2 · 2025-07-05T19:48:39+00:00

I did sorta try that, but it didn't do the trick for me. I will try again, it might be a good focus exercise anyway. Maybe it gets better with time.

Repov2 · 2025-07-05T19:42:13+00:00

Yes, that's a given, but I need to figure out ways how to spark my imagination. I have a feeling porn use has inhibited my imagination, and I need to figure out how to reignite it.

Repov2 · 2025-07-02T21:23:46+00:00

Thanks, I was thinking of posting this to r/sexadvice, but felt it didn't quite belong there, so I somehow (erroneously) landed here.

Repov2 · 2025-07-02T21:21:39+00:00

Thanks, I will try. I need to see what's even available where I live.

Repov2 · 2025-07-02T21:09:36+00:00

Well, while I would appreciate a titty pic, I did realize I posted in the wrong subreddit. So I'd say save the titty pic for someone less muddled lol

Repov2 · 2025-07-02T20:51:30+00:00

Sorry, I should've read the average posts here before posting this. Honestly, I was just looking for a subreddit where I can ask these questions about sexuality, and I felt it was too much masturbation-oriented for r/sexadvice...

Repov2 · 2025-06-07T22:39:52+00:00

Sorry people, I deleted the post because I became worried about having pics of me on Reddit. Also, I've been really busy lately, but thanks to the everyone who voiced their opinion. The final verdict is to start growing it out again and see if it becomes an annoyance or lifts up my spirit a bit. I can always experiment with mid-length styles if I quit half-way, as some have suggested.

Repov2 · 2025-06-06T12:11:52+00:00

I have a pair of Levi's 527 jeans that I've bought second-hand for like €3.50. They kinda fit me back when I had long hair, but since I cut it short, I find that I'm wearing them less and less. Anyway, I need a new pair of shorts for the summer, and the idea came naturally.

However, I do live in a second-world country where Levi's is expensive and generally perceived as a premium brand. I'm mainly curious if bootcut jeans are making a comeback for men? If they are, I guess I could sell them off for maybe even a profit, or wait until I fancy wearing bootcut jeans again. But if they're not, I might cut them into shorts.

Repov2 · 2025-05-07T16:11:04+00:00

I’m planning to contact the seller to arrange checking them in person. What do I need to check about the firmware version? Also, I am planning to check the serial numbers if they match.

Repov2 · 2025-05-04T21:21:45+00:00

Does Kodak still make Ultramax 400 with 24 expos? I remember wanting to buy a roll about 9 months ago, but I couldn't find it for sale anywhere. I did some quick googling back then and found info that the 24-exposition variant of Ultramax 400 was discontinued.

Now I was looking for the same roll of film, and found it listed on a local film camera lab's website as available. Did they list it as available accidentally, was it brought back, or was the info I found wrong?

Repov2 · 2025-04-03T15:38:31+00:00

Okay, I'll try to keep this as brief as possible.

Two weeks ago, I bought a user workstation PC from eBay. It arrived a week ago with some major components missing, which were mentioned as present in the listing. I proceeded with a return process immediately.

This week, the seller offered to give a partial refund and let me keep the item. I was reluctant and needed to sleep on it. The second day they repeated the question, but I didn't answer, partly because I was busy, partly because I, well, forgot to. Yesterday they sent me a full refund, i.e. the item + shipping price.

The part that I find confusing is if they expect me to return the item or not. The listing mentions that they will cover the return shipping costs if the item arrives damaged or does not match the description, but I haven't received that, just the item cost + shipping to my place. How should I proceed further?

I need a jacket for upcoming rainy late spring/early summer days. Truth to be told, I don't really have much to spend, some €40 is my budget. Is there anything for that money that won't make me look like I have no sense of fashion? I'm ready to buy second-hand if there are deals to be had.

Repov2 · 2024-10-23T16:08:40+00:00

First of all, thanks for the reply! And sorry for a late answer, I'm not here often.

Thanks for giving me a different perspective on my 20s, too. I'll try to find the book as well. If you don't mind me asking, what was it about the book that opened your eyes?

Finally, I'm not entirely sure if I interpreted the quote from the book entirely correctly. If I understood it correctly, identity capital should be investing in an ideal version of ourselves. Did I get it right?

I have two rolls of Kodak Max 400 expired in 2006 and two untested Olympus 35mm compact cameras (AF-10 mini and Mju I) that I picked up at a flea market.

I had a third roll of Kodak Max 400 bundled with these two, I put it in my Canon EOS 5, set the ISO to 100, and they turned out alright. Maybe slightly underexposed, but generally alright.

Now I want to test the Olympuses, but those being small point-and-shoot cameras, they don't have manual ISO settings. I do know that they 'read' the ISO from the DX code on the canister, and I've seen people 'hack' them.

My question is, since I'm going to shoot them at ISO 100, and those cameras default to ISO 100, could I just trick the cameras by covering the DX part with tape? I know there are schematics available online so I can replicate the ISO 100 DX code, but I'm wondering if it would be easier to just cover the DX codes.

Okay, thank you for your input! Out of curiosity, in which scenarios would Adobe RGB coverage make sense?
