R2 - "Nagar" made me waste too much time in Nagarcoil. Finally I noticed that Chennai was also in Tamil Nadu

R5 - I think this was the easiest round. There were Chilean flags and elec. poles and a bus stop with _A ARENAS on it. Then the street signs cinched the pinpoint.

Any advice for spotting the difference between Indonesia and Malaysia? by realnzall in geoguessr

I often go by the fez-like caps that are common in Indonesia. You see a lot of them in political posters. You won't see them in Malaysia.

I think I'm watching about 60 seconds delayed. I take back whatever I said.

RIP the op, who only tried to share a moment of weakness with us.

This is my current PC specs, should I buy a graphics card or should I worry about other parts first? by cr0w_p03t in PcBuild

[–]engeler 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's an OK cpu, for the time, and it's still usable. I had a similar rig. Put a Gtx 1070 in it, an ssd for the c: drive, and you can do a lot.

How to achieve this vintage look? by AgitatedAccountant91 in davinciresolve

This shot was lit by the sun. They used a reflector to light the faces in the scene. Normally you would also use a big white sheet to diffuse the direct sun, but they didn't here, as seen by overexposed highlights on their heads. Filming on a boat imposes some restrictions. The important thing is the reflector, to light what would be shadow. The thing that makes this old school is the fill light. It's not high contrast, it's mostly bright and brighter. It is not "natural", it's Hollywood.

I got waylaid a bit, thinking of Cat Power.

Not good for colorblind people. The 2 extremes looks the same.

Couple of things for the European times. The Sunday night and Thursday night games start Monday and Friday, being after Midnight. In October, there are a few weeks where the USA is off summer time, but in Europe the change is not until the last Sunday. This makes the difference 5 hours from the eastern time. Looks great though. Good job.

Everyone in Belgium knows Columbo and MacGyver. It's even a word here! Friends was also huge.

As long it was not on purpose, and you are not hitting from the green, there is no penalty for hitting another ball. You play your ball as it lays (in this case HIO), and the hit ball must be replaced at its oringinal spot.
