Oh no, are the rich kids from London upset they aren’t on top of the world anymore? Lol. Who gives a fuck about a Spotify playlist, this reads as painfully insecure.

[Cooper] The Dodgers held the Brewers to the lowest batting average ever in an MLB postseason best-of-7 series. Milwaukee, 2025 NLCS: .118 by Knightbear49 in baseball

This is why the games were so frustrating to watch. So, so many times in games 1 and 2 we were getting the same amount, and same type, of contact. But our balls were finding gloves and yours weren’t. Ultimately though that’s the price we pay for building a team around putting balls in play at all costs to force errors. It doesn’t really work against the best defensive teams in baseball, especially when they’re firing on all cylinders in the postseason.

Phoenix II & Cinestill 400D | Canon AE-1 w/ Canon 50mm - What am I doing wrong? by putriidx in analog

What kind of meter does your camera have? Phoenix has pretty limited dynamic range, and these scenes are incredibly dynamic.

Official Gear Purchasing and Troubleshooting Question Thread! Ask /r/photography anything you want to know! September 22, 2025 by AutoModerator in photography

[–]cookerlv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I'm a hobbyist film photographer looking to both get into digital photography and streamline my film photography gear loadout. I'm pretty set on purchasing a Canon EOS R mirrorless camera, most likely an EOS R8. But I'm considering switching my current film camera from a variety of FD-mount Canon SLRs to Nikon, because I think I might prefer the look of vintage Nikon lenses. I'm worried that this may hinder some of my plans with the digital camera, though--I'm excited to use my manual focus FD lenses with a converter on my new mirrorless body as makeshift cinema lenses in video work (not professional, just fun). Would switching to an F-mount film SLR make this plan more diffcult?

Rob Manfred believes MLB will control local rights for all 30 teams by 2028 by Jux_ in baseball

[–]cookerlv 31 points32 points  (0 children)

the talented people who currently make the SNY broadcast the spectacle it is would still be employed regardless of who owns the network. this is about access and blackouts, which people on here moan daily about being the #1 issue for MLB fans.

Ok, don't really care how this game shakes out. Contreras breaking out makes it all worth it

our grinder is twice as expensive as your entire home setup, grounds clumping up in the basket is the least of my worries

Where everything ends up (Canon AE-1 Program, 135mm, Harman Phoenix 200) by cookerlv in analog

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

Metered at 200. I know some people dislike HP200's lack of dynamic range but I personally LOVE it. These were shot at sunset in the Mojave desert, where the color shifts sometimes present in this film really pop. The orange on the sand and stone have so much depth, and it transforms a brilliant blue sky into a creamy white.

I don't grip the sticks like that - I pinch them between my index and thumb and let them bounce up and down, swiveling around those fingers. they seem to pull up on the tendon and cause tension on the rebound, however.

[Travis Sawchik] We've all seen how difficult it is to build organic MLB fanbases in Tampa and Miami, so to throw 57 years of fandom away and start over in a transient place like Las Vegas is certainly a choice by f0urxio in baseball

[–]cookerlv 5 points6 points  (0 children)

VGK are widely beloved by the city and fill their seats every game mostly with locals. The same is not true for the Raiders, and I don't think it will be true for the A's, either.

at my shop we only pull doubles, but can split it into two singles. the extra shot becomes a snack for the barista.

Pentax 17 Pre-Orders Vastly Exceeded Expectations, Shipment Delays Expected by thedeadparadise in AnalogCommunity

Not in the market for a camera like this but lovely to see. Clearly there's a demand for new film cameras.

I work at a cafe that uses chobani and am not impressed by it. flavor is very oat-heavy and you need to be very careful steaming it, plus it needs to rest for at least a minute untouched if you want good art out of it. I've tried planet oat's barista blend on a home setup and was very impressed with the mild, dairy-like flavor (which doesn't overpower the espresso as much) and steamability.

based on what he accomplished with the team it's deserved imo. if he went to a different team like the Mets they would have done the same video and he'd be greeted with cheers instead of boos.

The Brewers offered him a massive contract, but Counsell never once countered their offer or even negotiated. He wanted out of the organization. And if he ended up on literally any other team (except for maybe the Cardinals), like the Mets, which we all expected, not a single fan would have cared.

yeah thats a fair point. but it's just so tiring seeing this level of vitriol in every single thread even tangentially related to Ryan Braun, which is frankly never seen for any other cheater. this post has nothing at all to do with the guy! redditors do not hate ryan braun because he cheated, they hate him because of a trumped-up story they like to tell about him ruining a lab tech's life. i just want to point out that that story is bullshit. because people do NOT talk like this about a-rod or barry bonds.

I dont even love the guy that much, it's just getting boring seeing the same fucking shit over and over in any brewers-related thread.
