Not sure if it will help but sometimes charging overnight on a 5W charger can get it going if the battery is just really dead. Probably the easiest way to ensure you’re getting 5W is a USB A to C cable connected to a PC or laptop. If you have an older wallwart with a USB A port it’s probably 5W charging as well. Could be worth a shot before sending it back.
The only voice function I use is setting timers and I get so frustrated Google wants me to unlock my phone to do so. I am using my voice because my hands are busy. So annoying!
I do use it, probably one shoot or so a month. out of every 100 pictures I probably have one great one and 10 others that would be good with editing but I never go back and edit them. A phone is probably better for most people most of the time but there are definitely cases where it wont do the job.
I initially bought it when I worked over night shifts and wanted a night time hobby on the weekends, so I wanted to do deep space photography. I finally got on days soon after and am not up as late anymore so mostly take it on hikes, or birding and rarely around the city.
I rarely talk about it unless I show a picture that people ask “how’d you take that?” and I have to explain. I’ve bought a few lenses in 5 years but think I’m set on those. Maybe in another 5 years I’ll upgrade the body. For me it’s been a worthwhile investment.
Yes dedicated cameras are still around. They aren’t going away anytime soon. I really like my Fuji camera.
Canon makes great optics and decent hardware but is pretty bad at everything else.
but username checks out.
But are they actually healthy and happy?
The only deal I find on prime day is storage. Usually pick up a SSD or few SD cards and save a few bucks.
Same. I still have Solus on my old laptop but I mostly only use that when I travel. Its the same install I’ve been using since 2018 with no issues. I did not install on my new laptop because hardware wasn’t supported on available install image and it seemed like Solus was on its last legs and not worth jumping through hoops for.
I have 2 at work. Sometimes I just have our ticket software on one and Firefox on another both full screen. When works crunching I might have multiple PDF manuals open on one and PDF schematics on another and could use a 3rd for a browser window to search for old similar problems in our daily reports. I’m able to work best when I can keep 1 screen dedicated to what I’m working on and the others for information gathering.
At home I typically just have 1 screen for gaming. I might set my laptop up on the desk if I want to browse the web or chat while playing.
I had a 92 Taurus that made a loud crack when I turned left. Mechanic said engine was about to fall out. Left it parked in front of my house and a cement mixer backed into it and crumpled the front end. Got about 2000 bucks out of a car we were going to scrap.
That approach never sinks in with anyone I train. They seem to remember that I told them something about something so they do that not remembering I said not to do that.
When I was messing around with it, I had to go back and fix it’s code more often than not. It’s still useful for get the be bones of a program going though.
Aptitude has a GUI? I’ve been using it purely CLI for years.
36 year old and still sleep with stuffed animals. I’ve had them for 30 years and just honestly sleep better with them than a pillow. They are a stuffed wolf named timber and a stuffed dog named woofles.
I think only the real dog judges me, but that’s cause she’s a jealous bitch.
At home mainly records. Rega P6 as a player, marantz amp and totem speakers or koss esp/95x headphones.
On the go Qobuz on my phone to cayin ru7 dac and campfire Andromeda iems.
Well he’s also a huge asshole and that’s from many first hand accounts.
Oh see I like to feel the rush of adrenaline from living dangerously and only save once completed.
I think the RIAA has a different view on that. Huge push backs against recordable cassettes and VHS tapes when they were introduced.
What if I keep a jade egg in my ass just for fun?
Reading this I should live like a medieval peasant and only eat potatoes, onions, and root vegetables and drink nothing but beer. I’m kinda down with that.
