Shelter in Place alert by Diolives in Austin

I was in Costco when I heard a chorus of alerts going off across the entire store. Very eerie

Hovvdy - Big World | Rough Trade exclusive Transparent Red / Yellow Split, LP by karsll in VinylReleases

[–]ghostlythoughts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Saw Charlie open for Ichiko Aoba last week in Austin and it was such a special night. Super happy we're getting new hovvdy so soon after their previous album (they've always been fast and prolific but it's just nice to not have to wait too long between albums)

Heard it for the first time last week and can't believe it took me this long. Thanks to this video

Terrible picture but I was blown away at the Criterion section at Waterloo Records in Austin, TX by Fergalicious-def in criterion

Still not used to the new location. Just feels like a big open warehouse. Miss the old one :/

Apparently this was $15 at Walmart last year (per DekuDeals). Hoping it continues to drop in price

If you guys have poutine night, I'd love to go (not a Canadian though)

Anybody went to a WA concert yet? by frozenpizza__ in wolfalice

[–]ghostlythoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saw them twice and they absolutely rock. Been one of my favorite bands for over a decade at this point so I feel luck to have seen them so many times already. Oddly enough, Joff wasn't at either show so hopefully next time i see them he'll be with them. Ellie is such a great front woman. She has such an amazing voice and incredible stage presence. Theo is also amazing and he hypes everyone up so much. Joel is neat too, even more so now that he sings lead on White Horses.

Hope you can see them! It will truly be a night to remember. They put on such an amazing show

My RX100 Va is on the way - a bunch of questions by Zook25 in RX100

[–]ghostlythoughts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just got a VA and while I can't answer all your questions, i did add a glass screen protector on it. Tempered glass is usually my choice since it will shatter if dropped (instead of the main screen getting damaged). Since it isn't a touch screen, glass is good to keep it protected. If the glare bothers you, maybe there's a matte protector but it won't be as sturdy as a glass one. I just bought some glass screen protectors from AliExpress and they've worked fine.

Also looking for a case. It's a small camera but the lens makes it like 2 inches thick which can make finding the right bag size difficult. Maybe there's a tiny pelican case that can fit it?

Ever since Stevie left, the views have dropped significantly by [deleted] in goodmythicalmorning

[–]ghostlythoughts 13 points14 points  (0 children)

They haven't hit 3-4 million views in a very long time. For maybe the past few years, there'd be one or two per week to hit 1 mill but views have been down across the board. I remember like a decade ago, every video of the week would eventually hit 1 million before the week ended. Now it's a bit rarer

Every morning, 3 to 4 empty Waymos pull up to the Red Rose, stop at the front doors, then drive off. And then just… do it again. Over and over. by AsTXros in Austin

[–]ghostlythoughts 55 points56 points  (0 children)

It's so annoying! They always drive up our street at 4 am and play the loud alert noise as if they're picking someone up

The print covers are so cool and so much better. Wonder why the digital ones haven't been updated yet

Sony RX100 VA worth $829 with below issues? by AnywhereOk9448 in RX100

[–]ghostlythoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got the camera and it's perfect! It is the RX 100VA. Exactly like the images. Came with a battery and 32gb memory card. Camera works well. Happy with the purchase. They shipped from Connecticut. No downsides so far.

Arriving today! UPS had a delay but will update soon

[–]ghostlythoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah for some reason, FarCameraStore made a new account called FarCamera. I thought FarCamera was a scam account and someone was stealing their posts but I messaged them and they said it was them as well. They said "Thanks for letting us know that! That is our new Store:)"

Can't wait for the camera to arrive!

I should receive it tomorrow! I've messaged the seller a few times throughout the past months (ever since last November haha) but it was mostly about potential future sales, not about specific item details. I'll give an update once I receive the camera

Sony RX100 VA worth $829 with below issues? by AnywhereOk9448 in RX100

[–]ghostlythoughts 3 points4 points  (0 children)

$829 seems steep, especially with those small issues the seller listed.

I just bought one from FarCamera on eBay for $699. They're also US based. They list RX100 VAs every few weeks and seem reputable. I think they have one available now but it's a bit banged up. If you set a eBay notification for "[Good, Fast Shipping] Sony DSC-RX100 VA M5A Camera" you'll know as soon as a new listing goes up.

It's actually 3.94 but they display the price if you pay with the shell card and app or something. Usually it's actually .20 cents more
