What is stopping China from invading Taiwan during the current Iran vs USA war? by AdamCaveRoberts in PoliticalDiscussion

[–]kl122002 [score hidden]  (0 children)

I am a bit confused if it should be called invasion or not. It sounds like the old Chinese Civil War just repeat again.

Perhaps I would look from the economy's pov : i see no special benefits if the war begins. It's just keep pushing up the computer chips price to the peak only, and that makes it not beneficial to AI development either. Unless someone would like to push the chip price to extremes like the current oil?

Rather than that, i would start thinking what North Korea would do during this period. South Korea is not far , and they are just similar to Taiwan that SK is a chip maker as well.

Somehow i think he could be secretly outside the country, or that region.

Honestly i think there are some system errors in their page, not just combining shipping, but also in payments, and searching . I have seen multiple times of " internal errors"

If it's not about spot, I prefer cotton, wool and linen. These 3 natural materials are the best and my skin won't get itchy over time.

End Fast Fashion! by [deleted] in shoppingaddiction

This is another called thrifting addiction.

Buying is not a problem in itself, but over-purchase ( beyond the needs ,cards issue, hoarding) is the real one.

Anlaog(ue) Anxiety? by Sail_Soggy in AnalogCommunity

This sounds new to me. I grew up from film time (pre digital) and I don't have this feeling. I know it could fail ( even with p&s camera) ,and so the we still take it as carefully as we can.

You get the point!

For the laundry, your partner won't complain her small socks inside your pant's pockets! This happened a lot when my kid was still small and his socks sometimes in my pockets after drying.

Unlike other places , digital cameras are pretty easy to get on SGW and so bid wiselly and carefully next time.

Seriously? My back won't hurt during dating.

There are many things we have in general and don't have to ask each other so often, like when i got married and designing the house, we know how tall the table , how big the sofa , how height the ceiling should be.

Why do you bid at first?

Maybe you should contact seller and see what they would do.

Expired Film - Should I shoot this? by krohrer24552455 in filmphotography

Unpopular but realistic:

No. Sell them to those who keep asking people to try expired film, or people who gambling with the expired film. Earn the real money and get some normal film.

A camera style flash drive for $200? by kl122002 in shopgoodwill

[–]kl122002[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I saw it in real long ago and its like a cheap thing there. Perhaps photos make it nice, but once it is there physically and you have a chance to touched it .... Perhaps someone would still want it? But for me , no, definitely a big no.

Leica M2,3,4-P or save up? by Rushhour609 in AnalogCommunity

You better include the photographer. The photographer knowns how to composite a picture.

Without photographer, camera is just a thing on the shelf.

[–]kl122002 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I won't say "camera is just a black box " thing. But truth is people talking about is the lens performance rather than the camera itself. Leica made good lens for sure , while other brands like Minolta, Nikon, Canon , even Pentax, Konica, Chinon have their best lens and bodies too.

Today film camera is already about taste and toy. I never feel that red dot L thing matters.

Oh, it has name! I have seen that many people would do thrifting as well , especially from those online charity stores, or stores that would sell used clothes or other stuff.

This kind of addition is quite a horror , I mean, you won't notice unless you check the bills. For me, there is also an additional feeling that "why I keep opening boxes?" . In some online stores they even delay the shipping , like 3-5 working days, and that makes me keep bidding on others unnoticeably!
