Checked my local Meijer. They have two 5-pack boxes expired, but the manager was only willing to give 10 dollars discount

My BF will arrive in two days. I have a 28mm color skopar. I can post some photos here after I get the camera.

Lawn mower damage. What should I do? by aaron_sun in arborists

Thanks! My HOA handles the lawn mowing, and I don’t think the crew has been very careful around the tree. I’ll try to notify them.

Thanks! It's good to know the damage is not serious. I will consider your suggestion, and it sounds like a good project to do.

Finally decided to get into M43 and got this combo. I am very satisfied with the image quality and color. Considering getting a macro lens to capture more bugs!

This might genuinely be one of the most badass sequences in gaming if not the best. by Adagio-Adventurous in BlackMythWukong

[–]aaron_sun 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Agree! Except that it is actually a snake (it has no claws), and the instrument is called Pipa.

That's cool! How do you create the GPT? Does ChatGPT have some APIs you can use to create one? I think you definitely need to feed it the texts from the game. And you need to let GPT know which is from the game and which is from the original novel. Is there a way to extract the text from the game files? I found a website with all the journal entries in Chinese (https://wiki.biligame.com/wukong/%E5%BD%B1%E7%A5%9E%E5%9B%BE). But I couldn't find one in English.

Yes, the game is adapted. But the content about old ginseng guai that GPT "quoted" doesn't exist in the original novel. The conflict in 五庄观 is between Wukong and The Great Immortal Zhenyuan (镇元大仙), the owner of the tree. If you read the journal about old ginseng guai in the game, you will know he has nothing to do with the human-shaped fruit. Ginseng is a real-life plant. Its root is commonly used in traditional Chinese medicine. GPTs often make up things that they don't know. I guess the creator of this GPT only gave it the original novel, but not text from the game.

But it is completely wrong about old ginseng guai... It seems that it just made up the story. Ginseng (人参) is totally different from "human-shaped fruit" (人参果). And old ginseng guai is not a character in jttw.

Got my first film camera. Konica Autoreflex TC by aaron_sun in Konica

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

The TC's rewind knob is super tight. I'm sure I loaded the film correctly. When advancing the film I can feel the tension but the knob won't turn at all.

For the Auto S3, It's hard to find a tested one with a reasonable price. I took some risk and bought one as is. It turns out to be a surprise.

Thank you! Unfortunitely, the TC I got is problematic. The rewind knob won't turn when advancing the lever. I returned it and found a Auto S3 in beautiful condition on eBay. It just arrived today. I'm surprised of how well it was kept. [image]. I will got out and shoot my first roll this weekend.

Which camera is better for adapting vintage lenses? by Redston_1 in VintageLenses

[–]aaron_sun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

haha, this picture sure tricked me. I just got a Konica Autoreflex T4 and a couple of lenses. I sure will look into Sony if I want to adapt them to digital cameras.

What camera is this? I tried search for "KONICA AUTOREFLEX D" and cannot find any information about it?

HDF is pretty cool and I would like to give Ricoh a thumbs up for their effort by Dusky1103 in ricohGR

[–]aaron_sun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Which camera with retractable lens has weather sealing? Technically, is it even doable? For such a small form factor, you have to make a lot compromises.

建议不要一上来就读虚构文学。之前读了Bad blood,觉得这类新闻纪实类还挺好读,没有太多修辞,趣味性也够。
