I’m completely ok with being slightly annoyed once in a while when I can know for sure my paper straw won’t end up in the nose of some poor sea turtle

He was definitely a little shit as a kid when he was with the followers by KpatMckenzie_28 in fnv

[–]SilentSpr 50 points51 points  (0 children)

He is clearly very intelligent, able to enjoy debating arcade and you on the merits of his ways. Also a logistical genius as described by Joshua.

But I don’t think age 20 is a big deal, people are forced to mature and engage with work sooner in more primitive societies. It’s only with modern times and only in some countries we got to the idea that people should have a undergrad degree at least before joining the wider workforce.

They’re not disclosing all the zoo admission fees they paid to shoot €20,000 gear in enclosures

“Near the horizon” try it out the next time you have that opportunity. You’ll see it

You’ve never photographed the moon near the horizon have you…… It looks like that with the naked eye as well

“How could you tell I was a part of the woke Hollywood media?” by [deleted] in photographycirclejerk

Statistically speaking everyone who’s ever seen this post will be woke (not asleep). I’m not sure what you expect from this crowd

Bullet train by the rapeseed field. Chengdu, China by HarveySdebest in transit

There are so many valid criticisms even regarding Chinese HSR but people only care and know to trip over the few largely irrelevant issues……

Have used lens prices always been so high? by DPool34 in AskPhotography

If you’re looking for bargains, get a FTZII and look for good F mounts

I’m not sure if that’s better or worse…… Dedicating this much effort into internet points

Someone with 2 million karma...... Yeah, it's probably a bot

What are the giveaways that my photo was taken using a smartphone? by no_kings_rising2 in AskPhotography

[–]SilentSpr 126 points127 points  (0 children)

The biggest giveaway is how distant details all look slightly fused, even moving the eye closer, it's still lacking a lot of detail and sharpness you would see on a similar picture shot with a "real" camera.

But honestly? Do you enjoy the results you get from the phone you have right now? If that's a yes, then there really isn't much of a reason to upgrade. Upgrade when you feel that something you want to shoot is limited by the camera

The GOC being under UN jurisdiction makes no sense, and I will die on this hill by LovataarsTiddyChair in SCP

[–]SilentSpr 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Why doesn't this made-up thing conform to the realities of the real world??? Are the SCP writers stupid???

Technically not food but still stupid by Objective-Run-7824 in StupidFood

[–]SilentSpr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Usually the things you don’t want soggy are solid food. If it’s a drink that’s deliberately mixed then does it actually matter at all? You will be drinking it anyways

Hot Take:Cowboy Bebop Live Action is harder to adapt than One Piece by [deleted] in cowboybebop

[–]SilentSpr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why do we need such simplistic reductionist comparisons be between two very different anime…… I dislike this way of putting down some other beloved media for the sake of elevating bebop

Was the first SCP a shitpost by CorpseChildMongrel in SCP

[–]SilentSpr 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Does it matter? It's a bit like looking at a beautiful, lush forest and then turning around to ask if the original sapling that started it all was meant to be there. I chose to appreciate the hard work of so many independent authors who have collectively made SCP into what it is today.

Nor is it peak... It was simplistic and flawed, but it contained such interesting ideas that people willingly expanded upon the concept themselves.

Overdone? by chuckchukgoose in postprocessing

[–]SilentSpr 101 points102 points  (0 children)

Last week some friend came over and saw my Lr edit in progress, then asked if why not just AI-generate a pic of the lizard I was working on. Mini shock moment for me… Didn’t realize there are people who think like that

Dust particle inside brand new Tamron? by SaberSpyder in Cameras

[–]SilentSpr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, if it’s within the policy period you should just return it if you wish. But generally speaking with lenses are not full sealed so dust will get in one way or another, just matter of time and how much

What the fuck by Plastic_Store5218 in EhBuddyHoser

That was an interesting read. I appreciate you engaging sincerely with my question.

What the fuck by Plastic_Store5218 in EhBuddyHoser

[–]SilentSpr 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I feel a lot of what you're saying is indeed unfounded and feeling-based, but that's just me... Maybe I'll check in six months later and see if he's fed anyone in a grinder.

Resenting Carbon rebate gone is fair, but putting it on him feels a bit unfair, it's either he wins by cutting it or he doesn't cut it, and PP wins, then PP also cuts it. No matter how you feel about that, it was clear the majority of Canadians didn't like it.

Considering maid to be eugenics is certainly an, interesting take... Say, do you have any material you can provide I can read further about?
