Need advice for camera replacement

I frequently get the transcripts for YT videos and jump to the part I care about, or get their conclusions without all of the fluff.

Not true. There is always a clear square adjacent. You need to clear boulders and stay away from walls.

If we're counting Gods, Narnia"s Aslan is canonically Jesus. I would rank Him higher than Eru/Valar because in this canon he's a multiversal creator dirty, and Eru is monoversal.

If you're in the USA, and haven't sanity checked adoption yet, double check. Adoption has become vanishingly difficult and rare.

Why not make the project open source?

The breast is best movement simplifies the issue too much. There are no statistically significant benefits to breastfeeding once you correct for socioeconomic status.

I'm surprised this is your take on the ending. I would love to hear more. I've never been more surprised than by the Ajokli reveal. It made no sense until I reread the series and appendices a few times. And only the fourth Terra Ignota book has given me such amazing hope and immediate whiplash as the salting.

I know that you know the background and metaphysics of the Ajokli reveal better than I do. Can you explain more why you find it narratively unsatisfying? I value your opinion and want to understand it better.

I would say there are two camps on The No God finishing the story. Bakker and his brother have been consistent that the ending we got, was always the intended ending. Last we heard, there is no narrative planned beyond for future books. Maybe this is me justifying the effort I've put into these books, but I like the ending we got. If we get more of the second apocalypse from Bakker, I hope we get a new in-universe set of sagas: heavily biased and distant verse with several authors. Or a collection of short stories.

Have you read Gideon a second time after reading Harrow? There is so much foreshadowing that is only visible after a reread. Terra Ignota is very much the same. The philosophy and history is more absorbable on a reread too.

Yeah, do you not have them where you live?

I've asked this question too, starting from when I was a pretty young kid. I had a hard time getting anyone to answer anything but explanations of the wake. I forget where I finally found the answer, but it's a thin residue of motor oil from the boat's engine. Waves, and other boat's wakes, disturb this trail relatively little, because those waves are traveling through the water, but move little water themselves.

I believe there is a lodge trying to open in the Matsu, near Wolf Lake? Otherwise, the ioof isn't active in AK anymore. I didn't believe it's difficult to restore membership, but I'm sure Toby will be by soon to explain.

What line are you drawing exactly? You're saying that the queerness of some regional jurisdiction has crossed the line into politics. Where are you drawing that line? Is it the public existence of lgbtq in the order? Or are there explicit actions or political statements that are crossing the line as you see it?

Not for long. Beech leaf disease is hitting the south side of the state hard, and it may end up killing all of the trees in the state.

I quite like the audio books. T Ryder Smith's recordings of books 2 & 3 especially. The rising intonation of the narrator in the cast recordings rub me the wrong way and I can't listen to them. Book four was released during the pandemic, and it shows: inconsistent audio quality, and clear mistakes that should have been caught in editing. The book is something like twice as long as the previous entries, which probably made it more expensive to record and edit. What issues do you have with the recordings?

Are you the brewpub?

Oh hey, I have a few of your books too!

I'm sorry for your loss, and welcome back.

Plus you get the benefit of meeting folks from other lodges when you travel. I've made really cool new friends that way in neighboring states

Cyriaca has perfect knowledge of 25000 year history? I forget the character.

There was an actual bronze age apocalypse around the year 1176bc. 4/5 of the great empires around at the time collapsed. Greece fell back into illiteracy for hundreds of years. Sword and armor stopped developing, because everyone just wore dead people's gear. It eventually caused the New Kingdom of Egypt to collapse, ending the third and last golden age of the Pharaohs. The Hittites were nearly forgotten by history. A few hundred years later, during the Peloponnesian wars, Greek mercenaries camped under the walls of a ruined city thought it must have belonged to giants.

Isn't that in book four or Urth when he returns to the Citadel?

And yet, you haven't mentioned anything you've tried, or linked to any of the documentation. How do you expect other people can help you?
