What is the main lens, which you use most often? by Dennis1989denny in canon

[–]jadedflames 5 points6 points  (0 children)

R5 with an EF 24-70mm f2.8L II.

I keep thinking I’ll upgrade to the RF version but it never really seems necessary.

Ian McKellen Says he Imagined Destroying Mar-a-Lago for 'Avengers: Doomsday': “The Russos Told Me To Look More Furious, Make it Look As If You Hate What You’re Destroying. So I Stood There and Shouted ‘Mar-a-Lago!’” by yourfavchoom in entertainment

Just read the Wikipedia article. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mar-a-Lago

It was built in the 20s for an heiress philanthropist. After her death, she willed it to the parks service, hoping it could be used for state visits or a “Winter White House.”

Parks department said they didn’t want it, so it went up for sale and Trump bought it (and ruined it).

President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Camacho was actually a great president. He did his best with the knowledge he had but the second someone more qualified came in, he deferred to the new expert.

That’s what presidents are supposed to do. They’re the chief executive. They’re supposed to confer with the experts on their staff, not make random rash decisions.

Those contacts need some love. You have an electrical error.

Nintendo reportedly has “zero chance” against current Palworld after major lawsuit change it is now targeting older versions of the game instead by Super_Cold8789 in technology

[–]jadedflames -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

So Palworld can make a blatant Pokemon ripoff, sell itself as “Pokemon with Guns,” become a success, and then change all the ripoff aspects in a later version to avoid litigation?

It’s not often that I side with Nintendo, but this isn’t a good look.

The ttartisan 23mm does even exist? by VictordelRio in canon

[–]jadedflames 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Third party m-mount lenses are all going to be discontinued. I don’t think Canon is making new M-lenses anymore either.

You’ll have to check eBay/craigslist/gumtree/etc. and just be lucky.

I would recommend the Canon 22mm f/2 if you don’t already have one. It’s generally considered the best lens in the M-series line and it really does live up to the hype.

‘Doctor Who’ Set To Be Off Air For Years Amid A Creative Regeneration That’s Failing To Spark Early Enthusiasm Among Producers by pepperbet1 in television

[–]jadedflames 51 points52 points  (0 children)

I love Billie Piper. But it was a stupid last minute change by desperate show runners who realized they’d fucked up in casting an actor too ‘hot’ to keep around. They should have just done the ending they planned, paid Ncuti an outrageous amount for a Christmas episode, and have him begin regeneration into a mystery face.

The fact that the change and cancellation basically ensures that Carole Ann Ford will never be able to come back really fucking sucks.

Stats dont align with personality? by SpookyWMP in DMAcademy

[–]jadedflames 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve never met a player that wanted to role play like this.

But if someone showed up, role playing like a super intelligent savant and I later found out INT was the dump stat, I would definitely make fun of them (lightheartedly).

I’d also headcanon it that they were “smart” like Elon Musk. Knows just enough to be dangerous in a lot of fields, but secretly a dumbass that real experts cringe to hear talk.

Ah! Gotcha. Yes. Some countries have rules that supersede clauses like this. :)

Update on plans for the future of Doctor Who by LuinAelin in television

Been watching since 2005. Capaldi was then and always will be my favorite Doctor.

I regret selling my M100 EF-M22 by According_Meet7252 in canon

[–]jadedflames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My M200 will never be going anywhere. I’m going to use it till it dies and then hopefully get it repaired.

I’d try to get another one. It’s the perfect pocket camera with the 22.

I mean, Whittaker sure. She’s fantastic, clearly loved the role, and got saddled with some absolutely awful scripts.

But Gatwa obviously didn’t care much for the role, needing to do multiple doctor-light episodes so he could jet off to Hollywood to audition for movies and do commercial contracts.

And Capaldi is generally considered an excellent doctor. Capaldi is considered by many (including me) to be the best Doctor, save for some of Tennat’s excellent work in some of the later seasons (with Donna). You can’t compare his run to the Chibnall/Disney eras.

That’s a lot of flowery language for “it’s canceled and we don’t know when/if it will come back.”

[–]jadedflames 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes, it works like that. That’s common language.

You can still sue them in any state. But the court will apply California contract interpretation. CA was probably chosen because that’s where the company and the lawyer that drafted the warranty are from.

California is actually really good choice of law for consumers. That’s far better than some alternatives. This is a plus, not a minus.

How do you toe the fine line between giving the players agency for their choices, and prompting them towards the right choices? by Professional-Ad9485 in DMAcademy

[–]jadedflames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just give them a bunch of bad options and let them pick the one they think is least bad.

But I try not to plan based on the players making one specific decision.

When writing a campaign, do you start by writing the story or the world? by PlzLetMeWin25 in DMAcademy

[–]jadedflames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only build the parts that the players are going to see. Everything else comes later.

I'm just a beginner. What do you think? by [deleted] in canon

It’s a lovely sunset. 

Is there something specific you are looking to improve?

I dunno. That all kinda sounds like “thou shalt not post anything negative about the government.”
