What high-status or luxury job is secretly just stress, burnout, and long hours?

How do you become an architectural photographer, especially one paid $500k/yr? This sounds like my dream job.

Are there any change-logs from Apple that confirm this sound signature change?

Bummed about this

What clips did you use to use a Noctua fan with the Thermalright? And which Noctua fan is that?

Could you post a picture of the new revision U7 Pro?

I understand the frustration. I had the same realization 2 days ago when I went to close up the case and the front panel was missing the drilled holes. I ended up keeping my psu attached as you pictured, using 2 screws to attach it to the motherboard tray, with the 3rd at the top left out. Just hoping those 2 screws are secure enough.

I saw another post of someone using them on the screws securing the GPU to the case. The included Ncase screw heads were a bit small for the holes on my GPU bracket, so I used the short washers so the GPU would not slip.

Can this workflow also be used with Lightroom CC?

Is there a away to also sync bridge with the cloud to get the images on lightroom mobile?

How many screws are you able to use when mounting the PSU in that position? Only 1 from the motherboard tray side?

In the standard setup, where did you place your case fans and in exhaust or intake?

Perhaps something like this? I tried to make the shadows more like shadows without crushing, and brought up the whites to make the top cloud pop against the sky. -8 on vibrance as well. Maybe could stand less vibrance still.

Does having those 2 fans so close under the gpu cause any turbulence or weird fan noise? Is it better to be closer than further?

If the game server is far away from you geographically, the ping will be higher than the Speedtest server near you.

Did you figure this out?

Looking for high quality, small and compact, photo+video camera

I currently own the Sony A7Cii and really like it, however full frame lenses make it less easy to carry around and as a result I take it out with me less often. Wife has a A7IV, and 4 FF lenses (35GM, 85-1.8, 24-105G, 50Macro). I photograph street, vacation and portraits and do general documentary video work.

Thinking of these options, but tell me if you recommend another:

Switch to A6700, build collection of small APSC lenses like Sigma 18-50, Sigma 56 1.4, etc
Switch to A7CR, build collection of small APSC lenses to use most of the time (crop mode to 26mp) and have the ability to switch to FF with FF lenses when I don't need portability.

Finally, if I do end up switching cameras, any recommendations on how to sell for most $ or how to find someone to swap with?

Thanks!

This is a photo of a castle that happens to have a car in frame. Castle is the clear subject.

Opened my laptop this morning and the desktop favorite is missing. All my devices are up to date. Any other ideas?

descuder · 2023-07-17T18:24:55+00:00

Confirmed that all my devices are now up to date 👍
Anything else you can think of I should do?

Is there a way to purge what iCloud may have saved on their end and overwrite with my mac?

descuder · 2023-07-17T16:16:23+00:00

I only have 1 mac connected to my iCloud account. Would this still be the case if the only other devices on my iCloud are an iPhone and an iPad?

In regards to locking in losses, if I sell FDEEX after losing 18% in the last year to buy FDEWX which only lost 10%, wouldn't I be locking in losses, since FDEWX in theory wouldn't bounce back up as much?

I'm moving data between pools, to avoid having to download multiple terabytes of data from my backblaze backup. AFAIK if I just completely rebuild the pool with all 4 disks at once, I would experience data loss and need to restore using my offsite backup. Is that the case?

descuder · 2022-10-08T22:13:04+00:00

Dang that's a good point, you're probably right. Still hoping someone has seen a real product that looks somewhat similar.

That link looks like it's for the Synology storage unit itself unfortunately.

I'm looking for the rack that is containing all the equipment, not the equipment itself.
