At first glance I thought this was satirical, implying ikea was fined for making people build their own furniture.

Does that affect your battery much? The warning pushed me away from trying it.

OK… let’s adjust the doomsday clock again.

My parents rented me and my brothers one of these from blockbuster for a night. It was great and I’ll never forget it.

I rely pretty heavily on manual focus and focus peaking. Primarily because my main lens I find myself using is my 70-180 AF Macro with the FTZ adapter, which doesn’t autofocus with the Z bodies. When using Z lenses (like the 24-120 S) then I’ll use autofocus along with peaking.

I was in your situation recently.

10+ years ago, I had sold all my Canon kit including a 5DMkII and some EF L lenses and I wanted to pick up photography again. I was luckily not committed to a specific brand since I didn’t have any of my kit left so I was free to look at other platforms. I had a few friends with cameras and tested some different platforms out but ultimately settled on Nikon.

I currently have a full frame Z6II mirrorless and I like it very much. It’s lighter and more compact than my Canon setup was, and I also feel like the lens selection and price (both Z and F) are better than it was when I had Canon. My favorite part of mirrorless is the focus peaking. I find myself using it along with manual focusing for about half my shots.

Look around at other platforms like Nikon, Sony, OM, etc. before you commit because it would be a good time to switch of you did want to. If you stay with Canon, I definitely recommend looking at mirrorless.

Its already available for download and use, but I can’t find the source anywhere other than a Python proof of concept project that beeper purchased the rights to to make this app.

There shouldn’t be any back end beeper servers with this implementation if they really do what they say and interface directly with Apple servers.

So if the app will be open source like they say, can’t we just build it ourselves and not pay $2/mo?

OK now I’m interested. So you have a link? Or maybe a list?

Looks like Microsoft Pluton is a newly implemented security chip in some 2022+ processors. Definitely not ideal, but I imagine there are already people working to bypass arising issues.

It’s concerning to me, but I’ve yet to see it. I stream from my NAS to a plex client though, so maybe it’s only windows playback.

They’re lowering the cost of the remaining LCD models

I don’t see it available on the proton page, deals, or in my account. Thoughts?

Gilmore Girls is a classic feel good show that I’m surprised hasn’t been mentioned. Its pretty campy occasionally, but sometimes that’s what you need.

Also Ed.

If you download from the github it has swipe.

Awesome! Thanks for the hard work.

My entire wishlist is on sale, so pretty much everything!

That’s great! I’m looking at putting one in on my property. Do you have any tips?
