I love @captureonepro. Best photo investment I've made. But the fact that radial masks default to *outside* masks with no (apparent) way to change the behavior is absolutely maddening.

[Ben Brainerd @ben_brainerd]

I was actually excited to give @Coffee_Stain money for @SatisfactoryAF, but Epic locking me to a region I don't live in has nixxed that idea.

[Ben Brainerd @ben_brainerd]

So apparently despite never actually having used the @EpicGames Store, my account is set to the US due to (I guess) a location on my Epic account? And the only way to change this is to send them an email, that they may/may not answer? How about "no", Scott?

[Ben Brainerd @ben_brainerd]

@DylanReeve Jesus christ, $1000 for a *keyboard*? That's... Actually that's exactly the same price as the Micro Panel. Dafuq?

[Ben Brainerd @ben_brainerd]

Shocking perhaps no one: Eye AF doesn't work all that well on folks wearing glasses.

[Ben Brainerd @ben_brainerd]

@MysteryColorist Yeah. I definitely agree about the grade, if not his conclusion that it'd be easy.

[Ben Brainerd @ben_brainerd]

@MysteryColorist Don't get me wrong, as a fan I would LOVE a quality *4:3* remaster. As a post pro I just gave myself a concussion facepalming.

[Ben Brainerd @ben_brainerd]

@MysteryColorist Of the part I watched, the only part I agree with is the grading. The color I the remaster is hideous. 😭

[Ben Brainerd @ben_brainerd]

@hypomodern Well, if there's a shortage of *new* stuff, it stands to reason there'd be a shortage of used stuff too, since folks can't replace it. 🤣

I didn't ask about the shortage. It's not like rice stalks are in short supply here.

[Ben Brainerd @ben_brainerd]

@hypomodern One of my teachers was actually complaining about that yesterday.

[Ben Brainerd @ben_brainerd]

@hypomodern Assuming they're actually getting their stock from Japan, there's a tatami shortage going on for some reason. 🤣

[Ben Brainerd @ben_brainerd]

Samyang/Rokinon is releasing an E-mount version of their 85mm 1.4 AF. That's... A bold move.

That was sarcasm. It's a stupid move. The Sony 85mm 1.8 is ridiculously good, and is like $200 cheaper.

Am I the only person in the world who drops their tripod legs *biggest tube first*?

[Nathan W Pyle @nathanwpyle]

I have drawn the world’s worst pun

[Ben Brainerd @ben_brainerd]

@hypomodern @danakwatson S1, WF (low-key), WF (Insanity), Broken Angels (Ship discovery is, of course, a season-end cliffhanger), Broken Angels (Heavily modified end part. Everyone fights everyone)

[Ben Brainerd @ben_brainerd]

@hypomodern @danakwatson I mean, just off the top of my head right now, if I were writing I could maybe pull 4 seasons out: S1, Woken Furies pt1 (The lower-key beginning and maybe a bit of the robot craziness), WF pt 2 (Robot boogaloo and most of the Sylvie stuff), Broken Angels... Wait, 5 seasons.
