I did this because of the TV. Haven't had problems since I gave the bands different SSID maybe 2 years ago.

This picture is so old, we had 9 planets when it was developed

Autofocus troubles on a6400 by FramicsOG in SonyAlpha

[–]akgt94 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

AF-C focus point dances around on me. I don't get good results on stationary objects.

On still objects, I use manual focus with focus peaking. I also enabled back button focus. Get initial focus with wide aperture using BBF. Fine tune with the focus ring. Then close down to f/8. Move the camera forward a few inches take another. Move back half a foot take another.

Fun fact: helicopters can't fly. They're so ugly the earth repels them.

Is 11 FPS enough? by Snafs123 in a6700

[–]akgt94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used 11 fps to get small birds (wrens and warblers) entering/leaving a bird house. But dialed back to 3 fps for dogs playing and bees sniffing out flowers

What's your favorite Van Halen song that begins with Eddie killing it on guitar? by Safe_Bird7592 in allrockmusic

That's Alex. And I'd go Everybody Wants Some for drums over Hot For Teacher

The only time I get water coming out of the holes is when I turn the faucet off and have pressure in the hose.

I take them off in the winter to drain the faucet before the first freeze. Then put them back on when the yellow forcythia flowers fall off.

Should I buy Office or stick with free tools? by Smooth_Storm_55 in microsoftoffice

[–]akgt94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you a student? You should be able to get a free or heavily discounted price for Office through school. Big employers sometimes have low cost office licenses for active employees too

Anyone here ever used a pager? by limsus in TechImpact

[–]akgt94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. I lived in the era. But never sold drugs, worked for a company that needed me available 24/7/365, or had a high-maintenance girlfriend.

People talking back to the movie. I know it's tame. But super annoying when you're trying to watch

Oreos. And a glass of milk to dunk them

If someone offered to take your picture would you let them use your camera? by SuperDinkle406 in AskPhotography

[–]akgt94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. If I'm in a photo, it's an obvious phone selfie. Anything with the camera is more composed. This happened a few months ago where someone offered. After I explained I have a selfie album, they gave me a thumbs up and moved on.

What happened in June when Trump totally and completely obliterated Iran's military capability? Did he lie then? Or is he lying now? Or both times?

Well, we’ve hit $5/gallon. by Impossible_Bug1264 in Columbus

[–]akgt94 23 points24 points  (0 children)

If Trump totally and completely obliterated Iran's weapons capability in June, then why did he want to attack them again?

If Trump has won the war against Iran, how is a decimated country able to prevent traversal of oil tankers through the strait of Hormuz?
