They are on multiple floors in some European venues too. I've seen McDonald's in Japan, but did not enter. Eating American fast food in a foreign country is just so wrong. :sunny:

:scratch:

WTF? Are they being replaced by something else? :elephant:

You have never been to Japan or China or other eastern counties? I've never been to McDonald's in NYC, but it's probably more like a McDonald's in Tarzana.

Ride in peace. :cry:

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl: :colors:

Why would you wait for 890,000 spams to accumulate?

Nothing. I took a few shots in the workroom only. 17 is useful for 48x36mm V-3 shift stitch to gain a wider view that any other EOS lenses and of course the >40MP. It is OK using a 60 mm circle out of 67.2, but full ±12 mm horizontal shift is not so great. It's better to crop some of the...

The main problem so far is shading. The front catches all the light. :( :santa:

Have you been in Japan recently? It is changing. The equivalent to the western Generation X have different viewpoints in many areas that their parents and the previous generations.

You know what I mean. ;) :beye:

For 8.5-10 years of pay, I'm surprised more people don't off themselves. It seems like a good deal.

Will you still have some family support system in town? :santa:

Anyone else working over the ling weekend? :tounge:

If I could feasibly do so I would. :smurfin:

That reminds me of the Unis in Japan some years ago. People were concerned about being injured by falling bodies so strategically placed netting was emplaced and acces to open areas was restricted. The Japanese have a high suicide rate, but it is more socially acceptable in that culture.

X25-E drives are not MLC consumer components. Price is reasonable for the purpose.

2TB is the OS and hardware limit.

Yeah, but it sucks that I'll never be able to use larger drives. :silent:

Better late than never. :smile:

The newer one is a ripoff. It has only 14.9GB free space. :elephant:

The card user.

$115 now. I wonder if there will be $100 specials by Q4 holidays.

80GB and it is quite good for most use.

The spare blocks? Should she care?

I don't think you are getting the point. A 15.2 GB file of all zeros or other pattern fills up the whole card. Wear leveling cannot add space.

Wasn't that reported a few months ago?

Why? It should fill each block as part of a large file that is the size of the card.

I doubt it would help very much at this point, given the results for the Monumentus XT.

It helps repetitive reads like booting and opening apps. Reviews are not very thrilling. It is surprising that Seagate did not produce a hybrid version of the new 750GB drive since the PC board is the standard size. Maybe they will do so in the future.

The clear human vision range is not wide screen, hence much of the problem. The other part of the problem is that many photos and text are vertical. Anything less than 1200 pixels is annoying. I'd be happy to run a 1200x1920 display at 1200x1600 if that were possible.

Except that there are no new 4:3 displays, such as 1200x1600 21".:???:

It is $40 more than the similar drive without the 4GB flash chip. :geek:

Hmm. I did not think about the PATA part. :( And you beat the flood control...

So there is a $40 premium for the flash chip.:clown:

The new Momentus XT comes in 250GB, 320GB and 500GB capacities and has a manufacturer's suggested retail price of $113, $132 and $156, respectively. :colors:

I prefer Neweggs. 1-2 days when ordered at 1PM. :cyclopsani:

Yeah, it really sucks. I'm holding onto an old 1200x1600 that is dying. Display conmpanies like to rip off the public.

No. A quick format does nothing. There are numerous recovery tools for that.

How about "organ donor?" :cherry:

These are all reasons to use USB 3, besides the little issue of power. :) I could use 2.5" drives in a toaster, but I know of no suitable storage containers for bare drives.

I was thinking that one pass of fill is enough of a wipe for practical purposes, i.e., software recovery would find nothing. I only do that for each project, not each time the card is used. Formatting is faster in the camera (essentially instant), but best done in the computer for logistics...

Dominant? What difference does that make? :rr:

No cards for sale. Formatting cards in cameras is annoying. I almost always format them in a computer with a DOS batch file after downloading each set to triplicate targets. However, I'd like to start fresh each time before going into the field. :cyclops:

What is the fastest way to wipe or zero fill the flash cards? Of course the less wear the better. :cyclop:

Ack! There are only 7 left.

That explains it. I never played video games in an arcade. The last video I had was an Atari with cartridges around 1976. I was already getting too old for games. :clown:

Of course OS and apps will launch faster after repetitive use. Yet if the writes are not cached to SSD content creation apps won't benefit that much. In a few years I'd like to see 32GB and some control over which files to cache.

I suppose this is only the beginning. 4GB is far too small. We need write caching too.:porc:

So today there is a new 750GB @ 7200 RPM Monumentus drive from Seagate. I wonder if it is worth a damn. The 500GB 7200 RPM Seagate was no faster than a good 5400 RPM drive. :cheers:
