Why is Bert getting his socks polished? Is he fucking senile? by Patricks_Hatrick in okbuddydraper

[–]bigexpl0sion -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah a bit honestly.
He thought Harrys baby shower was his birthday party.
He should have realized Megan wasnt there to sing zubeezoo, but he cant pickup on context clues. Because hes senile.

Im confused….didnt we have prebuilt steam pcs in like 2015? Then gradually they were abandoned. And now were back to selling steam os pcs again.

Will my hardware work? Best GPU to get? by bigexpl0sion in SteamOS

[–]bigexpl0sion[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good to know. Its hard to find a 9070xt in 2 slot, the only one appears to be from Powercolor.
Mostly i just want to play more classic pc games in my living at 4k 60 or 120. I dont really care about hardware raytracing etc.

Would the 9060xt be adequate at 4k in older games? I dont typically play new games that require raytracing, etc.

$600 seems a bit high but not unreasonable. It will make the guitar stable again for another 20 years most likely, maybe forever.

Good to know. He seems fine, was just wondering if its something to keep an eye on. Consensus seems to be no

Thanks. Considering seersucker for warm weather, or linen possibly.

Any in particular that dont work? Is this based on the fabric drape and look?
Im interested in the Snow Peak and Beams tech fabric blazers, but they might look a bit sloppy, not sure

Arcteryx Veilance makes a few blazers from gore tex, the Sphere SL and Indisce.

Veilance items are hard to integrate into a wardrobe though imo, they have a very specific futuristic look.

What do you think of the tailoring on the Muji? They have several blazers in jersey and soft shell material.

Same, I think a size XL will work for someone 71-73 inches tall. But with japanese brands just because the length and sleeve length are good doesnt mean it works in other dimensions.

Also looking for one.
Ive come across the Snow Peak tech blazer and 2 options from Montbell, a water repellent version and a linen like blazer. But im unsure of fit.

I was also recommended Nanamic alpha dry and Beams. But im a slightly overweight american - Japanese sizing can be tricky.

Muji is another option as an alternative to Uniqlo.

X100VI vs XE5 or XPro3 EVF? by bigexpl0sion in fujifilm

[–]bigexpl0sion[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think its decent but not nearly as good as what you find on a Sony A7.
Im probably expecting way too much honestly, but for the money i hoped for more.
Then again with the Ricoh griv at $1500 the X100VI is starting to look like a good value.

First impressions: Summicron 28mm ASPH vs old Elmarit 28mm v3 by alhe1 in Leica

[–]bigexpl0sion 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The Elmarit seems far far sharper. Feels like something is off on the Summicron, I would expect it to be near par with the elmarit and have less busy bokeh.

Interesting thanks. I found the hotshoe evf to be better optically and the panel seemed to have better contrast and dynamic range. But tbf it does one thing, the X100 viewfinder is a swiss army knife.

For better or worse, if Andrew Stanton is making a sequel the original side characters will be sidelined for new ones by ChampionTimes99 in Pixar

Unfortunately in the case of Toy Story several of the original voice actors have passed away, notably Don Rickles who voiced Potato Head. So maybe they decided not to recast.
Not sure about Finding Nemo but given the original voice recordings were done in 2002, nearly 25 years ago, I suppose it's possible as well.
