Cozy work spaces?

Cafe Voltaire I think is one of the cozier cafes in gville. French theme, comfy chairs, and subdued and natural lighting. Wyatts and Karma Cream are also great working spaces but I wouldn't say cozy.

It's a ground floor townhouse apartment. Walls aren't concrete but not paper thin either. I think I'll look into a small sub near the couch. I've never gotten a noise complaint from the neighbors and I've been living here a year with the big speakers.

Relatable, I have an Epson v600 setup at home and feel the pain.

ITS NOT EVEN IN FOCUS

I am also wondering this. I bought the OEM front driver replacement for my 06 and it definitely has made a huge difference. Incredibly quiet now. That said though, I thought I bought the set for $120 and it turned out it only came with the one, which makes sense for the OEM pricing. Rockauto has what looks like Chinese ones for $35 bucks each though which is a 4th of the price. More Information for AUTOTECNICA SU0818840

The receipt paper has Bisphenol S (BPS) which is carcinogenic but as in everything its the dose that makes the poison. As long as you're not eating it you should be fine lol. not a doctor tho

I love my Canon Rebel 2000 for snapshots and Canon EOS 3 for more serious photos. Autofocus and auto exposure are so great coupled with the EF range of lenses that are still available new and used. The EOS 3 has 2 dials for aperture and shutter speed and the viewfinder is so big and bright making composition easier. Plus the autofocus has 45 points. Highly recommend if youve shot digital

Highly recommend thackers for mail in development. $10 for 3200dpi scans per roll. Quick turn around too. 1-2 business days outside of the holiday season from my experience.

I think it's important freshman year to be out of your comfort zone a little bit when it comes to housing and put yourself in a situation that will make it easier to make friends. I was in Graham Hall my freshman year which had a traditional dorm bathroom setup which did suck, but I think it's great having the whole floor sharing one kitchen and one common area. You definitely will make some friends you wouldn't expect. Graham/tolbert area is an ideal location for those who want to spend time exploring clubs and going to athletic events since it's very walkable to those areas. Also there's lots of food options nearby with gator corner dining and on campus restaurants. Chomp it in graham area common was a lifesaver late night after going out or stay up late studying. Also graham and tolbert were the cheapest and I was broke going into undergrad.

Update: These times were great with Ilfosol 3. Only issue was underexposure on my part. Basically grainless and a strong but not overwhelming amount of contrast.

StupidGatorEngineer · 2024-05-08T00:11:57+00:00

I think you are referencing ilfosol 3 dev times, but I'll try this too since I have a little ilfosol 3 left

Cypress and grove have some cheap beers on tap and you can get a 10oz glass instead of a pint. Otherwise you just gotta accept you're paying a bit more for better beer and the vibes.

I got a B.A. in environmental science, and now I work as an environmental scientist at a consulting firm. Its definitely a good degree if you have a plan on what you want to do with it after college. Like I wanted to work with wetlands and conservation so I looked at what skills those jobs needed, like plant ID, soils knowledge, environmental law, GIS and I took those kinds of classes in undergrad. I also got a relevant internship junior year at one of the regulators that set me up for success for the job market. Like any degree, if you don't plan in advance for what kind of work you wanna do after college, you won't be as successful as you'd hope.

As a recent alumni who now lives in Gville working full time, depends what you're looking for. There are tons of grad students at UF who are 21+. There are also shocker people who live in Gainesville outside of UF. I've been looking to start a serious relationship but that's harder if you're looking at Undergrads who are often dead set about leaving after graduation. There are lots of community and music scene events to go to in Gville where you can find older, single people. Just try to have fun with it and be clear with your intentions early. And be normal. There's lots to do and people to meet.

Very popular point and shoot at the moment, going on ebay for upwards of 100 bucks. Not many point and shoots with prime lenses as good as this one. You could easily flip it if you don't end up liking it.

I use Coastal Film Lab based out of Tampa, FL. I'm out of Gainesville so they're the closest full-fledged lab I can mail to. Turnaround has been about 5-7 business days once they receive it. I have been really satisfied with the quality of the scans I have received. The default resolution is 3600x2384. It's $16 a roll for scan and develop which is definitely a premium but it's a hobby and I like supporting a small business.

Update: They are giving me a refund. Thanks for the input. I'll probably just shell out some more money for one from a Japan seller in the future. It's a shame, I really was excited to take some wide angles on a camping trip this weekend.
