ignoring the silly locked vertical aspect ratio, the samples shots are awful. The clipped highlights in the left corner or first picture look worse than an iPhone's. Assume that's Fuji's poorly-applied film emulation making the picture of the running track look muddy and terrible
I doubt that it does any advanced HDR stuff like modern phones do so it's going to clip unless exposure is controlled. It's a shame that in this day and age camera companies can't achieve as great instant results as modern phones even though they have much larger sensors and better optics.
too bad it only took you a few moments to take on this mentality after a lifetime of goodwill. America's been hijacked you should continue to stand with it

I'd say you had a fair chance of not allowing this to happen again. He could have been impeached, arrested, or shot. Either way would have been fine from Europe's perspective (and in fact, it seems like all of those almost happened). Instead the carrot was re-elected.
Relying on them now would be a mistake of the highest order, though I don't doubt that a lot of the political elite in Europe would very much like for things to return to sanity.
Doubt that but we’ll see. As for bias it appears to be pulling sources that include fox and the Washington examiner. Does that also make it inherently right wing biased?
back in 2005 my friend and I were obsessed with the game and I told him I'd build a new computer when HL3 released because mine barely ran HL2. I still think about that for some reason and how crazy it would have been to us then that HL3 would simply never come
Reminds me of a one-sided bet eight-year-old me made with my dad in 1986; he reluctantly agreed to buy me an Atari 1040ST (to complement the 8-bit Atari and PC/AT clone I already had at the time) if the Indianapolis Colts won the Super Bowl.
Imagine my (lack of) disappointment when he refused to honor the arrangement twenty years later.
working pro for more than a decade now, maybe some off this was relevant very early on but it's really just all web forum gear chatter. What people miss is that a photographer's job isn't using a camera or lamenting settings, it's lighting. Done artificially or by modifying what's available, you have to master both. The camera is incidental and what he's describing his just picture taking. If you're interested in photography it's more useful to take a studio lighting course and learn about fixtures and modifiers than worrying about iso.

When you do primarily street photography, and you have almost no ability to change the light, knowledge of studio lighting is all but useless.
In street photography, and any photography really, paying attention to light is super important. I’d argue it’s more important when you can’t control it.
Sure you could just go out onto the street, take a bunch of photos and pay no attention to light, but if you want to improve your photos, or know why good photos are good, paying attention to light is just as important as say composition
I'm not saying knowledge of lighting is unimportant. I'm saying knowledge of studio lighting is of little use when you don't have control over things like the type of lighting (daylight vs. incandescent vs. fluorescent, etc.) and lighting placement because you're shooting outdoors and you're limited largely to natural lighting (perhaps with the exception of a flash), and no ability to bounce lighting.
I can't use my watch while I charge it. Nor my earbuds. Nor my portable Bluetooth speaker.
None of those can give me any meaningful amount of use time (and definitely not enough for a full work day) from a 2 minute charge.
My mouse can. The port location is not a problem. The constant whining about it from people who largely don't use it is more annoying than any disruption a charge cycle causes.
> If my Logitech G502 mouse couldn't charge while in use, I wouldn't even consider buying it.
Similarly, if a mouse doesn't support touch gestures I wouldn't consider buying it.
I guess we both make compromises: you never have gesture support, I maybe can't use the mouse for two minutes while I go make a coffee if I forget to charge it overnight once a month.
> Specially because previous generation of apple's mice could be charged while in use.
The first version of the Magic Mouse required you to change AA batteries, and its predecessor was a wired USB mouse. Not really sure how you think either of those is charging while you use it?
When my mouse starts blinking I just plug cable and continue whatever I'm doing and it's a solved problem. No second guessing if I can take a break now in the middle of a meeting, no unnecessary cognitive load, no need to remember to charge it when "I have the time", it's... magical.
Personally I don't find it to be a particularly huge "cognitive load" to see a "mouse battery is low, charge soon" notification and then just charge it at the end of the day.
But for those that do, it's great that we have choices.
Yes, but the other point is that, in a practical sense, it is not really a problem. Just a silly design decision.
I expect, if they ever get around to redesigning that mouse, they’ll change the port, if only to avoid derision. The recent port change was not enough to warrant moving the port. That front edge is quite thin so there may not be enough room in the current case.
