Talking of surprise: I was ready to return our not-yet-dispatched MacBook Air (orderer on 20th October) as it only had 8GB and… they updated the product to 16GB! That’s neat, now I get why the delivery time was longer than expected.
Always the same, push to the outside and force the other driver to crash or bail. Usually with a net “advantage” gained, over and over the same unsportsmanlike tactic. It’s really a pity that one of the fastest drivers is unable to compete fairly and is just not fun to watch.
Nice and thoughtful video, thanks for sharing! But he calls out two tweets of him, saying that Hubermann probably doesn’t really think that way, so saying he is a clown is perhaps a bit much? I enjoy his podcast a lot, but I fully get the point that Strong Medicine makes. Nevertheless, Hubermann gives a lot of very nicely packaged advice, on how to tweak here and there to get a bit more from one’s everyday life - but those tweets are really horrendous I must say
You mean the iPad standalone and purely touch interface or with attached keyboard and mouse? Pretty sure that - with physical keyboard - Cmd+T opens a tab with focus on address bar, but I don’t have my iPad with me right now to test this
Perez is so slow, slowing down on an outlap is not enough to let him through
Yes it feels secure. The magnets are very strong and the locking geometry has tight tolerances, so that on the cutting plane there is no movement whatsoever. And even when a side force is applied to the blade tip, the blade moves but remains engaged, because the two magnets in the back keep it in place. The only thing to look for is avoid scraping the blade edge to the inner side of the body - the mechanism is very “fidgety” but using it too much dulls the blade. You can avoid this scraping by pulling the edge away, but you have to purposely think about it. I even imported it to Europe from the US, so to you it will cost surely less than to me ;)
My office carry is the Exceed Designs TiRant Razor-M: awesome mechanism and really compact. Really expensive, too…
Here paired with its sibling flashlight EDC:
I just know of Plus12: they make normal socks with asymmetric shape to avoid restrict the foot. I would like to try them myself but didn’t yet. But they are not cheap and maybe not widely available - I think they are based in Europe.
Subtitles will automatically appear if you mute the volume or go back a few seconds
Nice little QoL feature right there!
Since I discovered RAW Power thanks to Lemmy and used it happily since, I thought I post the availability of this more advanced app recently released. With the uncertainty around Affinity Photo after the Canva acquisition, maybe it of interest to some :)
I don't know what it takes for a basketball shoe to be good, but one bootie-style light shoe like the Freet Kidepo and the Sole Runner Surtur and T1 look like the nearest you can get. Maybe a thicker insole could help with impacts if landing without proper form. The only other wide shoes with more cushioning that come to mind are Lems, but they don't have indoor sports boots, just low-cut sneakers.
Obviously already on thousands of other sites, but apparently not on Lemmy, so here you are!
> COMING SOON! The EOS R1 > >TOKYO, May 15, 2024—Canon Inc. announced today that it is currently developing the EOS R1, a full-frame mirrorless camera, as the first flagship model for the EOS R SYSTEM equipped with an RF mount and is aiming for a 2024 release. > >The EOS R1 is a mirrorless camera geared toward professionals that brings together Canon’s cutting-edge technology and combines top-class performance with the strong durability and high reliability sought in a flagship model. This camera will dramatically improve* the performance of both still images and video and meet the high requirements of professionals on the frontlines of a wide range of fields including sports, news reporting, and video production. > >This camera employs the newly developed image processor DIGIC Accelerator in addition to the pre-existing processor DIGIC X. The new image processing system, composed of these processors and a new CMOS sensor, enables large volume of data to be processed at high speeds and delivers never-before-seen advancements in Auto Focus (AF) and other functions. > >By combining the new image processing system and deep learning technology to an advanced degree, Canon has achieved high-speed and high-accuracy subject recognition. For example, subject tracking accuracy has been improved so that in team sporting events where multiple subjects intersect, the target subject can continually be tracked even if another player passes directly in front of them. In addition, the AF “Action Priority” function recognizes subject movement by rapidly analyzing the subject’s status. In moments during a sports game when it is difficult to predict what will happen next, this function automatically determines the player performing a certain action, such as shooting a ball, as the main subject and instantly shifts the AF frame, thereby helping to capture decisive moments of gameplay. > >The combination of the new image processing system and deep learning technology will help to improve image quality. Canon implements the image noise reduction function, which has been previously developed and improved as part of the software for PCs, as a camera function to further improve image quality and contribute to user creativity. > >Canon is working on field tests for this camera, and will support capturing definitive and impactful moments at international sporting events to be held in the future. > >Going forward, Canon will continue to expand the EOS R SYSTEM lineup of fascinating cameras and RF lenses, thereby continuing to meet the demands of a wide range of users and contribute to the development of photography and video culture. > >\* In comparison to EOS R3 (released in November 2021)

I would place this breakthrough for humanity higher than moon landing but lower than vaccines. How could we live without this before?!
No I think the level 3 is only available in selected countries, roads and speeds. It’s called Drive Pilot and it’s not the one they are using in the video.
You got me here, wasn’t even aware that the Mercedes system is officially a level 2 with Steer Control that is supposed to do much better than seen in the video. I still think they should have compared with the more basic Autopilot, though, as this is what consumer report evaluated and the safety problems of Tesla’s lack of driver monitoring are there.
I edit my first comment according to what I learned through the discussion :)
I just care about proper and honest reporting. I’d have a Tesla any day over a Mercedes, for many reasons, but bashing systems based on the wrong assumptions is wrong. They are showing a line keeping assistant that requires steer control at all times (Merc) and a system that aims to be unsupervised - only that it should supervise and doesn’t do it properly, hence the lower score in many tests and the federal investigations in the USA.
MB Driver Assist could be compared with Tesla Autopilot. FSD does obviously much more in that is a “Level 3 beta”, albeit always level 2 because of its development stage. The yet to be released Drive Pilot from Mercedes - the Level 3 automated driving system - could be compared with Tesla FSD, that is a comparison I would gladly see!
Btw, the start of the video on the consumer report evaluation is about Driver Assist and Autopilot. The car in the video then runs FSD.
This comparison doesn’t make any sense, why bother?
EDIT: actually quite interesting in how bad the Mercedes lane keeping is even though with a Level 2 automation should do better. Misleading title and video beginning, because Consumer Reports evaluated Autopilot and not FSD.
The switch is out of metal, with LED indicator in the middle (blue as the idle color, red or green while charging I think)
Hullo! Begging pardon in advance for the missing beamshots, here a couple of pictures of the latest buys:
- FireflyLite NovMu V2 with Nichia E21A 4500K R9080 in Fossil Grey
- FireflyLite X1L Elite with Cree XHP70.3 HI 4500K CRI 90 in black HAIII
Build quality and LEDs are just awesome, they aren’t cheap but feel very premium. Feel free to ask any questions!
I’ll try to get some beamshots if anyone is interested, I’m still not sure on the right place and setup.
You're right! I suspected that during the video, but wasn't sure and thought I was mistaken as I don't have my iPad with me. This reminds me about how much I use those cameras! :D
Hullo! I just wanted to make aware of the latest updates on one of the newest Fireflylite flashlights, the X1L Elite (I am in no way affiliated with them and read the most info on Reddit, but it would be nice to kickoff a discussion on it here too).
Yesterdays update includes these 3 emitter choices:
- CREE XHP50.3 HI 5000K CRI90 2600lumens 120 000cd
- CREE XHP70.3 HI 6500K CRI70 3500lumens 84 000cd
- CREE XHP70.3 HI 4000K CRI90 2600lumen 62 000cd
It's very strange that the 70.3 HI 4000K would output the same lumes as the 50.3: I asked them and Ivy (the sales representative of Fireflylite) says it's because it's the low bin K2, if someone were interested.
There is as of now just one review by ZeroAir but it is expected that at least two other reviews will come out soon.
I hope some of you find this interesting, I personally find the 4 new models that are slowly coming out of preorder beautiful and with solid specs.
What are your thoughts? Did you preorder the X1L or other new gen FFL flashlights?
Hullo, I recently aquired a Speedlite EL-5 and was thinking of pairing it with the ST-E10 transmitter for off-camera flash. I found dozens of complaints online that since a couple of years ago, the Canon RT connection drops constantly and is unusable, probably due to interference. Does someone have a good experience with the radio sync? Apparently a lot of people are having problems - are there any who don't? This situation is the best advertising for Godox, really thinking of returning the Speedlite for the V1 Pro - that in itself would be inferior to the Canon, but with excellent compatibility and radio sync!
Hullo everybody! I'd like to know if someone has experience with the new Speedlite EL-5 and if they can share if their LP-EL battery shows extreme drain when not in use and installed in the flash. Mine lasts less then 3 days, without using the flash apart from checking the state of charge 3 to 4 times. I read some other comments online on this issue, so it's not isolated.
- Keychron Q8 Pro
- Gazzew U4Tx + a couple of Kailh Box Navy switches
- MTNU Beige keycaps (lovely new profile, GMK made double-shot PBT, expensive - even more due to Colemak)
I bought the keyboard immediately when I found out they made a BT version of the Q8 (I use a Q10 daily at the office), as I was looking for an iPad compatible one. Very happy with it!
Just wanted to share the link to the livestream of the designer Matt3o looking at the first batch of the MTNU keycaps. They are made by GMK out of PBT, with double shot legends. The profile has been developed by Matt3o and GMK as a Cherry-height spherical angle shape. First batch is currently shipping out and has the WoB, Beige and Susu colorways.
I find it really interesting and I don’t think I read anything here regarding this.

Hullo together! I finally got to order my first iPad (Pro 11")! I'm a long time MacBook and iPhone user and do a little photography now and then. On the Mac, I use Olympus OM Workspace to import and decode the RAW files. They go as TIFF files in Affinity Photo for the actual editing - I find the ORF engine in Affinity much worse than the "official" Olympus one.
Affinity Photo for iPad is a thing, but:
- importing directly could mean use an inferior RAW engine (I don't think Olympus has native iPad software for that - can the iPad even handle ORF files?)
- The V2 release was really lukewarm and I still use the V1 on my Mac. I am a bit skeptical of the software house in the long run, but I'd love to be proven wrong!
Now, do you have suggestions on how to handle an editing routine on iPad and which software to use, ideally without subscription costs?
The edited and finished photos are usually saved in Files and imported in Apple Photos for iCloud storage.
Thanks in advance!
Reylight Pineapple Mini raw Ti + ExceedDesigns TiRant MagLock #ExceedDesigns #Reylight #Titanium #flashlight #utilityknife #cutter
I found a very good - albeit not perfect because of the bead-blasted finish - match for my Reylight Pineapple Mini Ti! Such a small, light and useful package, and in my eyes really beautiful! What do you think?

Hullo! Does anyone have experience with the GRVL line of Decathlon bikes? The most concerning component they use are the hydro-mechanical brakes, TRP HY/RD. To me they almost seem the worst of both worlds, so to say. What do you think? How would they compare to the GRX 400? Thanks in advance and keep pedaling!
