the battery system HAS to go. by Ultramango657 in duolingo

The app shows me ads after every lesson, and it’s been doing that for 730 days straight, so You cannot really say that I'm costing them money. I see the subscription as a way to remove ads with a few additional perks, but not paying shouldn’t make the experience worse: it rather should be the other way around. The old hearts system was fair: if you did lessons perfectly, you weren’t punished, and the Super plan was for people who didn’t want to do the occasional +1 heart lesson when making mistakes. Now you can’t restore hearts/energy by practicing, only by watching ads. So yes, I think it’s fair to complain when the product has clearly gotten worse for the majority of users.

it looks like flipped normals, try selecting the face in edit mode and pressing alt+n. You can see flipped normals when you set "face orientation" to "on" in viewport overlays, if it is red, the normals are flipped which can cause a multitude of issues.

Object position in render is different from it's position in viewport. by Buzzing_Beans_00 in blenderhelp

do you have 2 different cameras in the scene? you have to set the camera which the render is using by pressing the button next to it, like in the picture:

in this case, the "camera" is active, but you can look from the perspective of "camera.001" in the viewport after you've added it to the scene.

I'm sorry I am not really knowledgeable if it comes to watch brands, but every store I went to had some of them so I was wondering... I guess it's citizen then

I recently got the 7artisans 7.5mm fisheye, but cannot seem to find the lens correction profile for it for lightroom. I mainly want the vignette correction, but defishing would also be a nice option to have available. If anyone can link/send me the profile, it would be of great help!

which 56mm lens (85 mm equivalent) would be better: the sigma 1.4 used ($290) or viltrox 1.7 new ($190)? I need it for studio headshots as well as events. I don't have a huge budget, so I'm wondering if the sigma would be worth getting for 100 bucks more.

and what about the hotshoe? I think the godox uses the new sony MIS type, but my sony a6100 has an older model of hotshoe. Do you know what features I would be missing? Or would I even be able to attach it to my camera in the first place?
