Are plane crashes this common normally in the US or is there just more cameras running?

Primus sucks

Or the Frank Mullen hand gesture regardless of what metal gig you are at

It survives exactly 75000 folds before it fails

No the people working at my datacenter eat across the street from the datacenter lol

How do you define skeleton crew?

No but it’s not a build it and forget it thing either like the common narrative thinks these days

Yeah but it’s 50 people in this very small scale example. Also all those people make good money and eat at restaurants most days for lunch. Etc etc

A big scale high compute datacenter would need hundreds of staff

I work at a tiny old datacenter that employs like 40 people full time. And we have only like 50 racks of servers

Do you think the thing just runs itself? You need electrians, hvac specialists, fire system specialists, UPS specialists, on top of all the computer related roles. There are tons of different moving parts

It’s also one of the best ways to still get into the tech industry because the guys physically racking servers and replacing disks can be hired fresh out of school no problem, and those people directly work with veteran sysadmins who get to absorb that knowledge and move up that way

Can dig more sources for you regarding draining of ecosystems tomorrow

Not excusing anything here but it’s not like the Finns treat their forests with respect either. The entire country is a tree farm.

A photo with masking takes like an hour to edit manually but minutes with the Adobe AI tools

You can do the same thing in gimp technically, but my time is too valuable now to be tracing tree branches manually with a brush.

Can gimp mask a sky or subject automatically and reliably yet?

I shoot in natural light exclusively and rely on those features.

Also what about camera raw profiles for fuji? Last I checked no

Edited my comment because I can’t read apparently

I’ve been a published photog for more than 10 years but I stopped doing paid photography work during covid and it’s just a hobby now. Need my lightroom. I don’t have time to spend 30 minutes masking a sky or subject when lightroom can do it in 1 second automatically and usually better than I could manually.

Edit: Sorry I misread. I thought you were saying I was new to pro photography. I haven’t got a chance to try the reverse engineered lightroom yet but I’m excited to. Fuuuuuuck adobe.

Gimp isn’t good enough for pro level work.

Guitar hero literally got me into real guitar so probably that one

1kg of 50mg thc gummies

People pulling up to my campsite in the middle of the night are not innocent people

Whats your suggestion? Call the cops? Lol

I’ve literally been robbed while solo camping before

Since covid there are just a lot of bad people out there. I put my shotgun on my tailgate now and have not had a random drunk crew pull unto my campsite in the middle of the night since lol

I’m much more afraid of a person intentionally carrying a gun

Yeah that’s kind of the idea haha

I’ve been almost killed by a grizzly, twice, when I used to live on the eastern slopes of the rockies in Alberta. Climate change and human activity are making it hard for the bears and they are hungry as fuck in those parts.

One time when I was like 6 years old camping with my parents, I went on a walk to the river and got charged from behind a bush, but it didn’t seem hellbent on killing me

Another time I was hiking up a fire cutblock and my buddy and I thought we saw three hikers maybe like 3km uphill from us. Eventually it was obvious is was a mom and cubs, and they were chasing at us full speed (we were upwind from them). If we were a little further into the hike, I think one of us wouldn’t have made it back to the truck in time.

I’ve also been trapped by a moose in my parents garage for 6 hours, once

I still would rather run into either these animals out in the sticks than random humans. I’ve encountered some really sketchy people in my time spent in the woods. Seems to be getting worse too. I’m not a gun person, but that’s why I have a gun.
