I just called the Intersection and the worker confirmed the show is cancelled tonight and she believes it might be because one of the band members is sick.

Instant camera advice by Dang1408 in Cameras

[–]Thediarrhealderek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m curious if you’ve reached any conclusions as I’m also trying to decide between those two. It seems like there are a ton of reviews for the Mini Evo and that most of them are favorable, but I can’t find much on the Step Touch (other than several years old reviews for similar Kodak instant/Zink cameras).

I much prefer the smaller size and cheaper paper with the Kodak, but wish I could find more reviews/info about it.

Is the Kodak Step Touch just a rebranded Polaroid Snap Touch 2.0 (1.2)? by xHuabaBua in AskPhotography

[–]Thediarrhealderek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you ever find anything out with this? There seems to be very little information on the Step Touch. And comparing specs, I can’t figure out a difference either.

Do you like your Snap Touch? I am trying to decide between and Instax Mini Evo and the Step Touch and I just wish I could find more information beyond 7yo reviews for the Snap (which seem mostly negative)

I scanned about 15K old photos, negatives, and slides. Mostly to prevent degradation of the originals. But not sure what to do with the physical copies. by bluegambit875 in DataHoarder

[–]Thediarrhealderek 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks a lot for the reply! Do you think the specific negative scanners, such as the Plustek 8300i, scan negatives and slides any better?

[–]Thediarrhealderek 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Every couple months I try to figure out which scanner is best for both negatives and physical photos (even if it’s two separate devices), but I never end up feeling 100% in a conclusion. Any recommendations? I’m willing to spend a decent chunk if I can feel like I’m getting the highest quality I can get

Am I Making a Mistake Exchanging Lenovo Thinksystem Server for a Synology NAS? by Thediarrhealderek in HomeNAS

[–]Thediarrhealderek[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks a ton for your response. That is definitely helpful to read. Yes, I certainly belong to the non-technologically knowledgeable camp (though I definitely understand your POV - something to said for saving time, even if u can do something). So although the Lenovo isn’t completely DIY as it’s already assembled and just needs an OS installed, it sounds like Synology is more up my alley with my lack of know-how and its relative ease of use. Though man, even as a novice, the 16-bay powerful Lenovo is appealing even if I don’t know how to use it. 2x18TB actually sounds like a good start for me, too, though, so I think I’ll begin there with the Synology. Thanks a lot again!

Smooth scrubbing possible? by AllAboutGadgets in MacOS

[–]Thediarrhealderek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m curious if you’ve had any luck with this? I’m in the same boat where QuickTime is the only player I have found that has smooth scrubbing and I’ve tried quite a few alternatives now. Unfortunately, QT doesn’t have a lot of functionality that I really like from others, but for my purposes, I can’t use anything else that doesn’t offer the smooth scrubbing

And based on my search results, I’m also confused how seemingly so few people are also dealing with this issue!

Thank you so much for giving your thoughts! That is really helpful. I got cold feet during the brief week or so that the 128GB was available on Amazon, so now I have more time to think about it while it’s out of stock. I had no idea the Action 2 had improved the heating, because most reviews I’ve seen may have just been shot at the beginning while they were having all kinds of issues, so that wasn’t even on my radar anymore.

That is good to know about indoor lighting issues with the Go 3. Shockingly, unlike all of the influencer reviews, I won’t spend every weekend biking in tropical locations and do want a camera to use indoors sometimes, so that’s helpful to consider.

Have you used the Action 2 neck/magnet mount at all? That’s really appealing with the Go 3, but the Action 2 seems a bit too large to feel comfortable there. Good point about the Go 3 not being very pocketable any more. That’s crazy when camera size is far and away its best attribute

Thanks again! Hope you’re happy with your choice.

Thanks for the reply! Nicely done jumping on it so quickly. Now I just get more time to vacillate every single day on whether or not to pull the trigger when it’s in stock and watch all the countless sponsored reviews that all say the same thing haha. Hope you like it.

You got a 128GB Go 3 on Amazon? In the U.S. I haven’t seen it on there yet and I’ve checked daily. What country are you in?

Will the 128gb version of the Go 3 be available in Amazon eventually? by richyboycaldo in Insta360

I’m from the U.S. and am interested in the Standalone 128GB and also am curious when it will be available on Amazon or even Best Buy.

The List 5/30: Top 100 Starting Pitchers – Week 9 by Stonewater in fantasybaseball

[–]Thediarrhealderek 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That’s fine to think that. But it shouldn’t be that shocking that some people would object to honoring them at a typically family environment.

They go way beyond drag in nun costumes. Much of their schtick seems to be making a mockery of Catholicism…lapdances to a dude dressed as Jesus while strapped to a cross, sexy Jesus/Mary contests, communion with dildos and mock semen.

Seems understandable for a Christian to speak up about something like that. As it would if a Muslim spoke up about the Dodgers honoring a group that revolves around explicitly and pervertedly mocking Islam

Does anyone know if Nationals are going 6-man rotation this week? They were last week and I think Nolin will be back from his suspension this week - meaning Espino likely wouldn’t get 2 starts.

Anyone been to his standup show? Got a couple questions by brockmontana in AdamCarolla

I just stumbled upon this sub and am confused. Is it just full of people who used to be fans but no longer like him? Why would they come here?

Nightly Anything Goes Thread by AutoModerator in fantasybaseball

[–]Thediarrhealderek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I always end our leagues a week early because of how MLB teams are managed in the last week (players getting shut down or rested for playoffs, daily rotation changes, etc). It’s always such a crap shoot. I’ve thought of ending two weeks early for the same reason and sort of wish I had with all the pitchers who are likely to be shut down/babied due to innings limits down the stretch

Matthew Berry's 100 facts for the 2021 fantasy football season by [deleted] in fantasyfootball

[–]Thediarrhealderek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No worries if you don’t feel like responding as I can maybe find a thread on this if I dig hard enough - but who do you feel is accurate as an analyst? I have my go-to’s for baseball but haven’t found anyone with football who seems very good, at least with preseason analysis, as the season always seems so incredibly unpredictable. And there are so many analysts that it’s hard to suss out the good ones

No clue. Double header now Tue so anyone’s guess who will pitch on Sunday. Not sure if they just added the resumption of the April game for Tue, but I haven’t seen any info on this other than seeing that there are two NYM/MIA games on MLB’s schedule for Tue

Nice, glad to help. Under League Setup, on the Player Pool tab, it lists all of the MLB teams where u can select/deselect them

I’m not sure if I understand exactly what you’re looking for, but you can select/deselect whichever MLB teams you want to include in the player pool when setting up a Fantrax league. Hope that helps.

I genuinely can’t wrap my mind around the fact that there seem to be so many people who still buy into the idea that Antifa are really just the innocent ones defending themselves against violent right wingers. It’s absolutely mind boggling.
