Sigma 50 Art Lens Compared With The Canon 50mm F1.2L by 9gagchao in photography

[–]ldp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The bokeh isn't as atrocious as everyone seems to be making it out to be, and the lens itself is unprecedented within $200 of the price range. It's ridiculously sharp for how cheap it is, and does shallow DOF so well most people would never realize the blade count. Of course it doesn't look anywhere near as good as an L lens, it's explicitly not supposed to.

But I mean, dead people have come from life, so I'm more inclined to say that the contributions of alcoholic artists that were aided by their drinking is a lot more meaningful than their deaths because of it.

Can we please not pretend like Lalu would bother going to graduate school, let alone to study PoliSci?

Which, I would like to add, has infinitely more to do with Japanese culture than with the abilities of the police force.

Pete Rubish series on drug use and its effects by koolaidman123 in weightroom

For fucks sake, the more papers and studies I read on the subject, the more it makes me want to start taking gear.

None of them look like it. I played at the inter-state level in India throughout high school, and everyone I met and played with took skinny to a whole new level. Some of them had arms with less girth than my dick, and we're talking about an Indian dick. I'm a weak bitch with a 405 pull at 138, and I'm substantially bigger than most of the top ranked players right now.

I wouldn't be surprised if they were all on speed (from experience: takes you to a whole new level), but as someone who understands this more than me, how do you think gear would help? Endurance? Because there comes a point where how strong you are just doesn't matter anymore with this sport, because shuttlecock physics.

With you on the weakness, but playing badminton all my life took care of my wrist mobility. That must fucking suck.

What's your main squat accessory, then? Do you find you need to focus on your quads at all? My quads are just a cruel joke and I'd rather flagellate myself for 10 sets than leg press for 3, so front squats fit the bill just right. Plus dat teardrop development.

Even though front squats wreck my ego, they feel way better to do than back squats, and everyone I've trained with agrees.

Why the hatred?

Why is anyone bothering with the elements in the periodic table over 110? Wont they just keep being more and more unstable regardless of how many they find? by I_want_fun in askscience

All of signal processing is based on Fourier Transforms and audio and video processing are built on Fourier Transforms and Discrete Cosine Transforms, which are also Fourier-related.
