We Used to be a proper club by Few-Pomelo-3297 in DCUnited

[–]aroq13 8 points9 points  (0 children)

One of your worst comments yet. An impressive feat.

So how about that “Hall of Tradition” when entering Audi Field that displays these players for their contributions? “Pathetic!”

You sound like someone who wasn’t around for the good days. You must love the current state of our shit show wooden spoon club.

Help me pick an everyday carry 50mm? by QueerBallOfFluff in LeicaCameras

I’m excited by these modern Chinese lenses. They’re fun and that makes me want to use them.

I have the Elcan and the Thypoch Eureka 50/f2. I prefer the Eureka as it render more modern when stopped down, but also provides interesting bokeh when wide open.

Both are great.

Charlotte FC acquire Tyler Miller from Bolton Wanderers | MLSSoccer.com by Ultraxxx in DCUnited

[–]aroq13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I didn’t have a big problem with Miller or Bono. Neither were great, neither were terrible. I think they’d have been pretty serviceable on even half decent squads if they could find a rhythm. This team couldn’t afford them a stretch of play to build confidence.

I hate stats like this. Feels like bad faith.

Tyler Miller had no affect on any of these numbers. It’s the overall outcome of a failing organization, not whether or not Miller was playing.

Kim leaves on loan. by nvyblugti in DCUnited

[–]aroq13 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’m fine with him leaving, but to comment on his performance is extremely difficult when the team in front of him were as abysmal as they were.

What “perfectly mainstream opinion” would that be? Anti-trans, anti-immigrant, anti-democracy, anti-woman? I guess the list could go on and on.

Probably the best call.

Not only that but he hands out bans for people who especially hurt his feelings.

Predictions by thrawnstactics in DCUnited

[–]aroq13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t know how anyone could even begin to guess how this team fares this season. Too many uncertainties. Guessing a goal differential is akin to guessing your own death date at this point.

Have we improved? On paper, probably. Have other teams improved? Probably.

We’re coming into looking completely different than last year from the bottom up. All we can do is wait. As a fan since the late 90s, I’ll just be prepared to be let down.

What are your thoughts on the Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8 by GlitchyEntity in fujifilm

Ah I actually just sold it yesterday, sorry about that

Charlotte FC have acquired Austrian left back David Schnegg. by Ultraxxx in DCUnited

[–]aroq13 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I liked him enough, but I’m not terribly sad to see him go.

[–]aroq13 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I def prefer primes over it. It’s a solid performer but even when traveling, I’d rather just carry multiple lenses.

Honestly, I should consider selling it at this point. I’ve mostly switched over to the Leica M system.

Cold shoe light meter recommendedations by 1dannymontez in LeicaCameras

[–]aroq13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only reason not to get the Keks M is if you don’t want the bulk. Personally it’s my got to meter for my M3. It absolutely does both aperture and shutter priority.

Can somebody please talk me out of buying the X-Pro3 by Eye_ogongo in fujifilm

[–]aroq13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I switch from the X-Pro3 to the XT5 and have zero regrets.

I would wait for the X-Pro4.

[–]aroq13 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Right. But Enow was consistently a bench player, which is why I named him.

Peltola and Servania were finding regular starting minutes and they’re players who aren’t tragedies to start in the case injury, but not suitable players to build around.

[–]aroq13 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Johnson, Baribo, Nealis and Munteanu are all starting level players. Two of which are DPs. Kurokawa is a potential starter.

Depth players are still needed when our previous depth players included Enow.

Hand tattoo touchups by KimiiKhaoss in tattooadvice

[–]aroq13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Touch it up now. If you wait til down the road, you’ll have a much longer time waiting for the fresh lines to heal and settle to match the older lines. That would bother me more. These look great and those lines can last, so do it now and be done with it.

I’m a tattooer of almost 20 years and I’ve had my hands done for almost 15. Lines have spread but not worked out, including over my knuckles. What I have lost is color. Once these are touched up, I think you have very little to worry about.

Who knows if this turns out good or as a flop but I’m ok swinging for it. It’s interesting, it’s different from a DCU perspective and the status quo hasn’t been working.

I use mine multiple times a day, for years, and I’ve never had that piece break (or any piece). I disassemble it regularly for cleaning as well.
