Started playing Star Wars Squadrons and now I need a joystick for my PS4 which is something I never thought I’d need

Actually accomplished all my todos for the day and then said “Okay what do I do now?”

Finally completed my remote office setup using an Audio Technica ATR2100x mic, Sony ZV-1 Camera, an hdmi -> usb-c capture device & some accessories.

Ironically my brother in rural Iowa now has power, but my parents in central urban Iowa still are without power. Sounds like things might start to get better after this weekend 🤞

So every time I go to update the firmware on my A7RIV it mentions a kernel extension. But after it updates I never see any 3rd party extensions. Is the extension temporary? Or does it not install it on 10.15?

I’d love to get the Sony A7SIII menu system on the A7R4. I hope at least the current gen of full frame cameras get it

I love Jason Vong & his excellent Sony Photography videos, but it’s also a great reminder that you don’t need to respond to every notification & to periodically take breaks https://d.pr/2R6x80

Thanks to one of my friends asking about a photograph, I was reminded that tilt shift lenses exist and they can do weird things like photograph you in a mirror without showing the camera in the image https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZlaeWRMYwGg

Finally upgrading my PS4 with a 1tb ssd from the 500GB 5400 rpm hdd that it came with.

I don’t need it very often but sometimes I wish I could do very basic queries on my iTunes purchases like show me my movie purchases by movie length on my Apple TV

I haven’t charged these in over 2 weeks. Granted I only use these when running/walking outside & yoga (at least 45min-1hr/day.) Now I just really wish these had ANC.

I’ve only recently bought the Studio Ghibli Films on iTunes. I love Princess Mononoke, but was afraid I wouldn’t get into the other movies. I was completely wrong about that. I only have Ponyo left to watch and every one of them has been fantastic.

I just spent the last 45 minutes navigating my brother (a parent who hasn’t been able to see infinity war or endgame yet) what to watch before seeing either. And he wanted to skip straight to endgame. So how’s your evening going?

Kept these in stock for California Wildfire Season, gonna try and figure out a local spot to donate them soon.

Didn’t know this was going to be released today, but now that I have to work from home I’m glad

For some reason, the Mac Photos app this evening has been choking hard on my Sony A7R4 nighttime shots. Really struggled to export some shots to jpg. https://pixelfed.social/p/colindw/133428375615311872

Say what you will about Terminator 3, but I think the most important improvement it made over Terminator 2 is that in the T-800, Human casualties is now recorded as an integer instead of a floating point number

Found a StackOverflow question where someone provided a decent answer to the question, but the question asker commented “that looks like what I need, but I don’t know this Objective-C, I need to use this from Swift“
