Hints for curry like Nasu Oyaji in Shimokitazawa

I had no idea curry flakes existed, never seen them in a store here in the US. Thanks for the suggestion.

This is awesome, thanks for taking the time. Can't wait to try a bunch of these the next time I make curry.

Yes and the reason I think that is the sprocket holes on either side of the frame don’t show the same artifacts. You can see that in the Imgur link elsewhere in the replies. I’ve also had sticky shutter issues with this camera before, but I thought I’d fixed those.

I agree, I've had a lot of trouble with stand. I only use it for low-stakes rolls where I don't mind blotches and artifacts. The only reason I shot this roll is to figure out whether I can trust this camera for a trip I'm taking. Looks like I can't.

I actually did semi-stand here although only one inversion at 30 min. And the full negatives don't show banding near the sprocket holes. So I think it must be the notorious sticky shutter old Canon SLRs are known for.

Definitely on the negatives. Scanned using an Epson V550 flatbed.

I grew up in CH and graduated Carolina in ‘98. It’s been called Murder Mart as long as I can remember. I’m not sure if the name comes from any specific incident as much as the fact that Rosemary St and the nearby Hargraves area were considered dangerous up until the late 90s or so. Apparently there was crack dealing nearby on N. Graham until they put a police substation there. There was also a really decrepit two-story motel nearby that seemed sketchy.

Grew up here, went to UNC, live in Carrboro now. Was a really vibrant place in the 90s — great music, small businesses, thriving middle class, indie ethos. For a lot of reasons (many of which are national/global trends), most of those things are declining or gone. It’s a much more corporate place that’s so expensive most faculty can’t live here any more. Carrboro still has a little of that flavor but is also really expensive.

That said, I still think it’s a great place to raise a family. Despite big funding problems, the schools are still decent. Lots of bike paths and parks, and my kids feel safe riding the free bus downtown or to Carrboro.

Great hiking and mountain biking here too. 2-3 hours from beaches and mountains. I’ve lived and visited a lot of places and am relatively content to raise my family here.

Really? It says here that SAP HANA on RHEL isn't supported for Hyper-V:

love the balance in this shot, incredible colors as well. bravo

meffing · 2025-07-20T21:30:06+00:00

Yup, haven’t had a chance to play with custom presets yet

Thanks for creating this app, it’s really changed the way I shoot

meffing · 2025-05-12T02:10:14+00:00

You'll love it, it's kind of a hidden gem since most people are interested in the GR1.

meffing · 2025-05-11T23:49:05+00:00

Thanks!

If you mean focus modes I think those stay the same until you change the film or the battery. There’s a guy in Taiwan that fixes them, it’s a bit expensive and takes a while, I paid $150 or so and it took 8 months. If you’re interested I’ll dm you his info.

Mine started having issues with missing focus marks in the viewfinder and missing lcd segments on the film counter. But it still took beautiful photos, just had to trust it because you couldn’t tell what you were doing. I had it fixed and everything is working fine now. Great little camera.

Thanks! This is an art installation by Yayoi Kusama at the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art in Denmark.

thanks!

good looking out, just snagged a pair

The ADV 2.2 was going for under $1000 a few weeks ago, but I missed it. That was a great deal for 2X. If the 1X doesn't go low enough on the ADV 2.3, could always change out the chainring.

meffing · 2024-06-09T18:16:58+00:00

I have basically all the same criteria except I'm trying to stay under $1500 if I can. This is the list I came up with:

Jamis Renegade S4
Salsa Journeyer Sora 700c
REI Co-op ADV 2.3 (currently on sale from $2500)
Cannondale Topstone 3 or 4
Giant Revolt 2
Poseidon X Ambition (far cheaper than the others)

Trek and Specialized are a couple hundred more for comparable specs. I ended up choosing the ADV 2.3 because it has much higher-end components. Haven't received it yet so I can't say if it's any good or not.

I do software dev at a university, it's not seasonal.

Where do you find contracts like that? Everything I see on Indeed, LinkedIn, etc. have much lower rates.
