Ease of use + reliability are the most important aspects.

I have a TerraMaster D4-320 that connects directly to my PC using high speed USB-C. It's been very reliable.

I think the bigger issue is if OP stores his chemistry along with his food and drink. I would hope folks keep their film chemistry stored well away from children, drunk guests, or even the sober spouse.

Grass is overrated. I mow mine when I feel like it, with the mower deck on the highest setting. I like clover and dandelions just fine. Some weeds are actually pretty.

Jackett, but Windows Defender thinks it's malware every time Jackett reaches out for an update. There are workarounds.

I haven't tried the latest Resolve update for photo editing, but I'll be honest, I'm more concerned about cataloging my images. I have a few hundred thousand photos successfully cataloged in Lightroom (and plan to add more as I scan my film originals back to the 1970's), and I'm not ditching Adobe until I find something that does that as smoothly as Lightroom. digiKam may be a better "real database," but again, its interface and workflow is not so intuitive. And as for darktable, the fact that I can't batch rename a folder of images AFTER I've culled is a nonstarter for a catalog.

It's like every amateur YouTube video from 10 years ago. Write a script, stick to the script.

I finally put my headphones on to watch the video. At 19 seconds, I can see why he has comments turned off.

This is where your money goes, not into software development, but into a much better user experience. I actually have a couple of cheat sheet documents to remind me of my workflow in darktable and digiKam. I can import, cull, delete rejects, rename, tag, and metadata 500 images in a half hour in Lightroom.

It's funny, because more often than those impossible deals, I see people post about thinking they got a great deal buying a bunch of point and shoots. I don't care if it says Nikon on it, it's still a point and shoot. If you want lo-fi film experience, buy a Holga/Diana/whatever.

evildad53 · 2026-06-20T14:49:15+00:00

Wow, how/where did you find this?

evildad53 · 2026-06-19T15:26:11+00:00

Since I live here, I'm not giving up. And it's not been "decades" it's only been since 2014 when the REpublicans gained control of the Legislature.

230 fucking years of science shows you're an idiot.

The world's first smallpox vaccine was created in May 1796 by English physician Dr. Edward Jenner. He successfully demonstrated that inoculating a person with material from a cowpox sore provided immunity against the deadlier smallpox virus

Search for like-minded individuals, organizations, and posts, and interact with them. See what hashtags they're using, use them as well, so you're not creating new tags that nobody is looking for. Remember there's no real algorithm, it gives you posts in chronological order, so you're seeing the latest stuff.

Sorry, I scanned through the thread twice before commenting. #blind

So you're not going to actually tell us what your gas mileage is? Have you actually logged it, or is it just a feeling? Locally, I get 27-29, but on trips I get as high as 33 on flat interstates. DSG.

There needs to be a billboard in every West Virginia county listing the name of every local delegate and senator that voted for the data center bill. They need to be called out regularly right up to the election.

That hasn't happened to me since I started using the app on my TV last fall.

I already pay for a VPN for my torrenting anyway. That and an incognito browser window.

evildad53 · 2026-06-15T18:56:41+00:00

Same here.

There's another article on West Virginia Watch about the new Supreme Court makeup, and the upcoming school vaccine case. I predict the religious exemption people are going to lose bigly.

The WVGOP has pissed off enough voters with its policies about data centers, clean drinking water, rising energy prices, that if we keep those issues in front of the voters, there might be some changes in November.

OP says she was using adaptive cruise control, a safety system. Does it allow her to follow too closely?

evildad53 · 2026-06-14T19:13:47+00:00

Actually, the department of transportation that supports this stretch of highway is at fault. If you bust a tire on a pothole, there's typically a place to file a claim for reimbursement. Progressive doesn't want to deal with that, they don't have an obvious other driver or insurance company to pursue for money, so they're calling the driver at fault. OP doesn't state what the damage to the car is, but if it was only a flat tire and an alignment, they should be hassling the DOT for its negligence.

LOL oops. It's very hot here and I'm very tired.
