:DOH: 8 hours sleep in three days. Sorry I forgot.

Yeah, but not which one.

Isn't this the new car thread? Can we at least keep it automotive? :(

Multiple US companies have learned through class action suits.

What? You had a different username then?

I suppose one should check the policy for frame limits. I always rent cars with unlimited mileage for example. Earlier this year we put on 2700 miles in 8 days. The guy looked at the odometer and then the paper and his device a couple of times. :D

Radio Shack used to aggressively ask for phone numbers.

I looked at leasing, but it seems like the costs are about equal to a six year period more or less. It doesn't work for me driving 6000 miles per year, but I know some people with money like to get a new car every 3 years without any hassles of sales. I' rather drive the car 10 years and then...

I suggest a rental if a huge number of frames are expected. 15k in 8 days is about normal for still photos in some locations.

The ratings are not particularly accurate. Most shutters fail far sooner. Some last longer.

What, no 4D yet? :D

Bummer. Maybe try a resort next time if you are not leaving the ship?

So you are back now and survived without interbet?

According to the calculator I could break even on the cost after 68-79 years. :lol:

Why does he need the USAP?

Yeah, that is a bit sad. Does almost everything you watch involve fantasy and people in tights or funky uniforms? No romantic films or dramas?

Oh, their sales have declined dramatically. :( The problem is that Nikon has also lost sales. Although the relatively new class of FF MILC and proliferation of other MILC have increased, the overall sales or interchangeable lens cameras will continue to drop. The unwashed masses just want...

The S scores 99 and the P85D is 100. The latter is nosier and has a worse ride though, but has the AWD. I'm not sure how they get 100 or more with the Controls and display being worse than average due to the giant iPAD needed to do anything. Anyway there is no economic value to being battery...

I've been using Nikon for 39 years. Although I have purchased less than 10 Nikon DSLR bodies, I do have experience with a number of the Sony sensors both in Nikon and Sony bodies. I have also owned 16+ Canon DLSRs. It may not be what you want to hear, but in the APS-C sensors the noise levels...

8.1 should be around for a while. Does it do anything for your needs that 7 doesn't?

Of course you have every prerogative to change posts. :) I just wanted to confirm my mental condition was sound.

Amateur and youth sports is difficult even for photographers, much less the soccer moms that have seen a few too many commercials with somebody capturing frame-filling, peak action with a cheapo camera and lens. For starters, I'd pick the latest Nikon 5xxx series body and a 70-300 lens in...

There is nothing about apes swimming in the pool.

I hope they can make the hybridization package inexpensive enough to have in better, larger cars without making them too expensive. I wonder about that 2016 model article. Are the writers professional engineers or meth heads?

It was around 01:00 in his zone.

Hey, where is Doug's post? I was trying to reply and it has disappeared.

"Persons having currently active diarrhea or who have had active diarrhea within the previous 14 days shall not be allowed to enter the pool water." Who goes over two weeks without any diarrhea? Glad I don't liketolike to swim.

I only have three and they are fast drives for the type. Or do you have the 5900RPM?

Oh, I forget all those different kinds of the electric hybridized. According to documentation, that is the same basic car as the Cruser. I had one of those in the NJ, but it had a horrible engine/tranny, sounding like the bees, cats and werewolves all fighting under the hood. I guess electric...

I wish there were a larger electric. Unfortunately even if still living by the 20200s, I just don't drive enough nor can I be certain of having electricity. :(-

How do you think I feel with these obsolete lenses? :( Three 100-400 IS, 500/4 IS, two 24-70/2.8 (first version), 16-35/2.8, 300/4, 300/2.8 IS, and 400/4 DO.

Damn, that's about 50% off. Getting 5% off on a regular car from the dealer is like a torture.

Damn, I'd be too worn out from riding nearly an hour each way day after day.

The new Canon 35/1.4 II is very interesting. It looks like they have a new means of reducing LoCA to make fast lenses that are APO. We'll have to see if they update the old 135/2 , 85.1.2 II, etc. There is some Japanese info here too.

Is that the same man who said, "If something is illegal in only two states, one of them will be Alabama." :)

A slide rule. :( I was so happy when the Bowmar Brain came out.

Yeah, there could be several boards, different BIOSes, etc. I was crazy about getting a BX board to work back in the day and found it just could not exceed 384MB.

Can you drive to the left ?

Is there an ulterior motive? I don't see the purpose.

I really don't get it, but Bing is still there.

WTF with the Google?

Apparently the descriptor "idiot" is no longer allowed, regardless of accuracy. :(

Are you sure that the hardware is not defective?

Is it not ok to identify a clueless, incompetent person as an idiot?

I paid about $150 a few years ago for more hours than I needed, so that seems right. I can also see not wanting internet due to concerns that people from work may be inclined to contact him. That's one reason why I prefer the less accessible locations with limited internet. :) The drawback is...

Maybe it did.

I'm trying to use the ad block plus app on the new LG phone, but in the configuration it keeps asking about the WIFI. I don't ever want to use the WIFI on this phone except on travel if no service is available. Can this app block ads from the normal phone usage or is there something else I can...

IIRC, BISO support for hardware and OS was always a problem. I was using 784MB of RAM in 1999, when many computers only had 128-256. I was so glad to move from 98 to 2000 around 2001. 9x was just so ugly, especially the USB drivers, etc. :hurl:

Is that the cruise you were mentioning last year? Usually they have a few packages and it is metered by time.

I have 9 cordless phones with speakers, so there is no point in using any of my cell phones at home. :) The LG does just fit decently in the pants pocket and is OK for walking, sitting, driving, etc. Anything larger would really be too much. The case I received is reasonably protective for the...
