So how good do your closeup portrait shots look with that 35mm you covet? Noses looking a bit large I would imagine?

My DSLR would be totally useless to me if I had to carry two prime lenses around. While that works for photographers who lug a big camera bag around, it does not work for an active tourist like myself. I do own a good 50mm prime and I only use it for studio shots. With my awesome 2.8f full sweep zoom, I get the…

Wow. what a sheltered life you live. Do you have any idea how much nudity there is in real life? TV shows tend to not even come close to real life, including Game of Thrones and Altered Carbon and other shows that occasionally are not afraid to be a little realistic. I’m actually naked right now as I type this! Stop…

the sun. Past Mars. The rockets fired a bit longer so the car will be somewhere in the asteroid belt.

The ‘99 M3 I had was a fine car for a two year lease but even in 1999 it wasn’t a fast car. Today the E36 is just dated. The E46 was better in every way and an E46 M3 like the 2004 I have owned since it was new can actually keep up with modern sports cars of today. Maybe not 0-60 but on a road course, an E46 M3 can…

Well they did work. But they crashed sometimes. There is no doubt they have always been more stable than Android phones though! ;-)

I can tell you I am no troll as I have had every iPhone since the first one, and I have been an Apple-only user since my Mac SE in 1989, and I read a dozen apple blogs every day but these days mostly AppleInsider and Reddit’s /Apple sub. The only bug I recall people complaining about was the type-o bug in Messages…

Please clarify what bugs you have had. iOS 11 is virtually bulletproof.

Did you ever have a single crash? I participate on numerous iOS forums and never heard a single complaint like yours before.

maybe 2 or 3 out of 10,000 Pintos exploded, so you were in good company. Almost every iOS user is totally satisfied with iOS 11. The few that are not will always make a big stink which is the nature of blown-up fake controversies of internet forums.

Nice to hear a voice of reason. Sure there are always bugs but Operating systems including Apple iOS have consistently been getting more and more stable and faster over the years. People seem to forget the way things used to be.

iOS 11 is the most stable iOS I have ever used since the beginning of the iPhone. Think about how many times you used to have to reboot your phone because it was frozen or because it started slowing down. My iPhone X has only been rebooted for updates. Bugs? What bugs? I saw one bug, with character replacement when…

I’m not worried about someone stealing the results of my Ancestry test. There are a lot more things I’d be worried about being stolen from me.

People base entire careers studying the migrations of human ancestry. the quest for knowledge is a powerful drive built into the best people. Others are satisfied to remain ignorant abut their history and about the universe around them, as they go about their petty day-to day lives. I can tell you were born without…

Ancestry is a huge company that has been around for 25 years now. You have a broad definition of “startup”. The incredible value of learning one’s ancestral history through genealogy is something many people cherish. Decoding DNA and using that info to trace a human’s genetic roots used to cost millions of dollars,…

They can sell the info to studies but your name is not tied to that info they can sell. I read the agreement that came in the legal copy of my particular kit I purchased. This article jumps to way too many conclusions.

Meh. I’m still going on with the kit I got my daughter which she asked for as a Christmas gift. My dad always warned me as I was growing up never to ever use an ATM card. He refused to be given one, and he would take the train into the city to make a transaction with his bank. Everything we do is a risk. Most of our…

Can’t stand that fake speech so I had to stop watching. Sorry Anker, you lost one possible customer.

Bettera than I remembered it! Thanks!

I think the movie being thought of was one of the dirty harry movies. I remember Clint Eastwood being in the scene?
