I still think the Nikon S series’ 1:1 viewfinder is magical. Feels like a video game HUD when you open both eyes and the framelines just float in space in front of you

I imagine he’ll announce a new jet that’s invisible to the entire electromagnetic spectrum, operational in five years, then burn a few hundred million in DoD funding and never speak of it again

I believe 2 and 3 are similar to the FAA’s reasoning for not requiring child seats on airliners. If you mandate car seats in airliners, lots of parents would just skip the flight and drive to the destination, which carries a significantly higher risk than just letting the kid on without a seat.

Makes sense from her perspective. If she’s already getting all the access she needs, why would she bother with a background check that could dig up a bunch of dirt about her handlers? Security clearances are for plebeians.

Could this be local exhaustion from stand development? I know it’s possible to see increased contrast around highlights under certain development conditions but this might be a bit too extreme for that to be the reason

Happened to me for the first time about a month ago. We were outbound and the same callsign flight was inbound to the same airport. Normally that’s supposed to be two sequential flights operated by the same crew on the same tail, but IROPS makes fools of us all.

With its integrated light meter and interchangeable lens system, the [Insert 35mm SLR] is the perfect choice for beginning hobbyists, professional film photographers, and avid collectors alike! FFS I’m already searching for old cameras on ebay, stop trying to sell me on the concept of photography

The thing about being ruled by a gerontocracy is that cohort mortality is a probability density, meaning all these fuckers start dying around the same time -- in clusters. The same Weibull Distribution "bathtub curve" explains why batches of light bulbs and hard drives all die in the same month.
A line graph plotting the probability density function of a Weibull distribution over time. The horizontal axis represents elapsed time, and the vertical axis represents the probability of failure. The curve models a wear-out scenario where the shape parameter is greater than one.At the beginning of the timeline, the line starts near zero, indicating a very low risk of early failure. It remains low and relatively flat across the initial and middle stages of life. As time advances toward the right, the line curves sharply upward (called the "bathtub curve" because it resembles the back of a bathtub. It forms a steep, narrow peak that represents a concentrated cluster of failures near the end of the maximum lifespan. After reaching this maximum peak, the curve plunges rapidly back down to zero, indicating that nearly all subjects in the population have failed.

So any shot that isn’t perfectly center of mass gets pushed away and becomes a near-miss. Also explains why Vader needed a targeting computer to hit a non-maneuvering X-Wing right in front of him in the trench

On the topic of special effects, looking back I really appreciate how they didn’t have the budget or the tech to animate sci-fi bubble shields for everything. I always imagined deflector shields as an invisible force field pushing blaster shots away from the craft it’a mounted to.

I was shocked when I realized how lax enforcement is on the General Aviation side of things. There’s really nothing keeping a pilot from flying an out-of-annual plane, without a medical, below legal minimums, without an instrument rating. Judging by kathrynsreport.com, it’s not uncommon either.

I purchased a Nikon SP from KEH once. Listed as excellent grade, no notes about its condition. When it arrived I discovered the rangefinder patch was so dim that it was essentially unusable.
