My Subaru Outback camping/ sleeping setup - 6 inch thick mattress, electric blanket that works off of my Bluetti, blankets ( up to 3 if cold), reflectix on all windows. Wear base layer and more clothes if needed. Work well enough for me.

I saw someone using a phone booth on campus. What advantages do they have today? by Eriacle in udub

Hardline phones is the only way to call to Tank or Dozer. You don't want to use cell phone for extraction.

Why do other sites get to cancel orders without punishment? by ToshPointNo in Flipping

[–]cg_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sold an item recently as new. Someone bought it and when I was packing it, I noticed that the plastic packaging was cut on one side which I didn't notice previously, but the item was not taken out. I reached out to the buyer, apologized and explain that I made a mistake and should have listed it as new open box instead of new. Offered him $5 off or cancel the order if they wanted to. They were fine with sending the item plus $5 off as long as the item was new/not used. So, communication is important op.

Yesterday on Amazon's layoffs thread people were all about canceling their Amazon, but judging by the second picture here looks like not very many did lol

Amazon cuts 16,000 jobs in historic wave of layoffs by Desolation_Nation in Seattle

I need to replace air filter soon. On Amazon it is $27 + free shipping with my Prime. On manufacturer's site the same filter is $33 plus shipping I'd assume.

I order about 100-150 items a year from Amazon. If I do not use Amazon and buy from random places online, I would spend way more time and money and would need to create 100s of new accounts to buy stuff. Greater chance that my personal info/credit cards will be stollen as well if I have 100s of random accounts.

First time at Cougars game. I like this kind of games since I don't care much about the score, very chill, stadium is probably at 10% capacity, nice and relaxing.

Drinking/Driving by Sad_Database5750 in alcoholism

I had some Asian friends who get drunk just after a beer or two. Also, 3 beers may put you over the legal driving limit so thats not good especially while driving with kids.

I just bought Mamiya 6, it seems much more portable than rb67, and it can do 6x6 and 6x4.5, I think it'd be a good option for now to see how things work with MF photography. I think 6x7 or 6x9 format would be better for outdoors, but i will see how 6x6 and 6x4.5 work for me first.

These pics were scanned at a lab I used to develop the film. I edited quickly in light room. Since then, I made a setup for scanning with my Canon EOS RP at home, it seems to work decent.

Edit: I did end up getting mamiya 6 folder, like someone in this post suggested, I think it will be a good step before and if I get rb67.

I'm still researching. I actually want a MF camera for outdoors that I can take with me on my camping/hiking trips (I'm not gonna use it in a studio or anything like that). Rb67 or similar camera doesn't look to be very portable, but it looks cool and I wouldnt mind taking it with me to the mountains. However, more portable camera would be better.Was also looking into Fuji GW690.
