  2. Replacing Files with Finder would fix about 90% of my issues with iPad OS. Ideally in a perfect world I would like a Samsung Dex like feature on iPad or even iPhone... but that will never happen. Apple wants you to buy an iPhone, and a Mac, and an iPad.
  3. Lancool III does it. Thing is heavy af though, as I always mention... mine is a burden to take up for moving EMPTY, I can't think how badly it can get when filled with hefty parts. I think that's because of the whole screwless design, where both panels are closed and you have basically nowhere to hold the chassis from other than its corners. Therefore the center of weight is crap, making it seem heavier than it already even is to lift.

    Welp, my tripod fell over - was pulled over by…

    Cheaper is same lens or primes... The 18-35 is usually a step up due to 1.8 apature. Maybe a Sigma DC 17-70mm f/2.8-4 OS AF HSM. Those I know for canon are under 300 nikion iirc is cheaper. Get the newer one the older one kinda stinks. There is not really a lot of choices.

  6. You want a ATX 3.0 psu for these RTX 40XX cards due to the adapter. The 14900K is not a cpu to be recommended for a gaming build. That cpu runs hot and has issues. Look at the 7800x3D.

  7. is this about Ubisoft closing the original crew? Can I sign it even if I'm outside Canada?
  8. That issue is an inherent property of DisplayPort connections, it doesn't have anything to do with FreeSync/G-Sync or HDR. Use HDMI instead if you don't want this behavior.
  9. The tag was a bit faded, but I managed to get the model number, it's a Logitech V-U0009.

    $350 USED yeah no on that one This lens was like $200 new IIRC, aint no way I'm paying $350 used for a replacement
  11. Got an update from Stop Killing Games. The Canadian petition is opened. So y'all please sign it. https://www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en/Petition/Details?Petition=e-4965 Wish LTT would heavily promote this movement in their videos, not just WAN Show talk.
  12. I picked this up for my new rig since the mobo doesn't have optical. The product page says it works with Windows, Mac OS, and Linux. Can't say for sure if Mac and Linux definitely works or not, but it's been fine for my PC. It's also really small which is nice if it's going to live on your desk.

    Welp, my tripod fell over - was pulled over by…

    I would recommend a sigma 18-35... they are like ~350 used.
  14. I have this super niche case where i am looking for a 27inch 1440p, 144hz monitor that does not have any hdr, gsync, nor freesync. Super stupid of an idea, i know. The issue is related to my other post from a while ago where my current monitor is acting like its being fully disconnected when turned off. Best answer i can find is to turn off DDC/CI which does not seem possible for me to turn off on this monitor. Its just an annoying thing i would prefer to sell my current montiro and just get one that doesnt have gsync/freesync/hdr so it should 100% not have that issue. If you find any or know of any, please let me know

    Welp, my tripod fell over - was pulled over by a wire near the base, and now my 18-55mm Nikkor lens is ruined. Only other F-mount lens I've got on hand is a 80-200mm and a telephoto lens isn't ideal for... just about everything I do. 

    Looks like it's time to pull out the 2009 Canon SD960 point-and-shoot for a few weeks!

    I quite like this camera, looks solid for its age, decent amount of actual hardware controls and solid optical zoom, can't complain. Actually bought it years after the Nikon D5100 as a secondary camera for travel.

    Spoiler

    Because of its smaller lens, it can also focus at much smaller distances than the Nikon D5100, opening the door to silly photos like this.

    Spoiler

    Can still get some solid closeup shots out of this old cam.

    Welp... any good Nikon F-mount lens recommendations? Any adjustable zoom autofocus lens is pretty expensive unfortunately, but the 18-55s are not outlandish, luckily...

      There is not really a lot of choices.

  16. Yup, run a wire. Direct burial CAT6 (CAT5e could work depending on distance, but now-a-days, CAT6 is kind of the minimum you should be running). Trench it, you only need to go down maybe 6" or so..could even get away with less depending on your soil/situation. How far is it from the closest ethernet connection?
  17. One of the main ones I listed was a better file system. I mean its fine if the iPad Pro is only pro for 3d artists and designers, but it would be so much more pro if the software could go a little further. Of course anything can be improved, but this is like the lowest hanging fruit here. BTW, some iOS and iPadOS apps can run on macbooks. The iPad has literally the same chip as a Macbook, a good keyboard and trackpad now, why not. Why not have a toggle to just switch between MacOS and iPadOS? Or add those last little software power features a lot of pros that stick with Macbooks would like? There's so many things Apple can do to improve productivity in iPadOS and they've actually have been doing some of that (albeit slowly over the years). Some people just want a little more. I mean Microsoft fails at a lot of things (Windows Phone) and they never really had a good mobile/tablet system so as you said, surface is a laptop with fancy touch. Google has the reverse problem where they have android as their main thing and chromebooks are their little netbook, laptop competitor. Android tablets just don't really come close on the tablet end to Ipad Pros and they don't have the horsepower to do what Apple could be doing with the iPad Pros. Maybe in like 5 years I can ask the same from Android tablet makers when Qualcomm gets their shit together. Apple has the combined knowledge of some of the best mobile, tablet, and desktop software ecosystems. They've already made the change on the hardware side where their phones, tablets, and laptops use basically the same chips. Why don't they leverage some of that amazing MacOS expertise to improve iPadOS?
  18. I mean if it works, it works. But don't worry about it for now. Tackles the issue if it comes back but if its going ok right now anything further will more likey than not hurt the issue.
  19. You wont need any other cables with the power supply and if you connect the fans to the motherboard it should have a controller built in. As for the computer, you can save yourself a good bit of money by downgrading the CPU as it will never get anywhere close to its potential when used for gaming. If you do that then you can also downgrade your cooling. Also if you are not married to intel, AMD offers a much better upgrade path. https://fr.pcpartpicker.com/list/RMNzcH

  21. If you can already get the job done, than nothing else is absolutely necessary. They just make life better and easier.
  22. Partners new car got hailed on, hard. 2-2.25 inch stones hit it, thankfully not for very long. The chrome strip around the windows is dented hard, roof, hood, a couple dings on the A and C pillars, a couple on the front fenders, a couple on the doors where they do round over to vertical. Shockingly no broken glass, thankfully.
  23. Are you looking to save money, or did you buy a 32 ounce bottle of lube? That AIO is utter ridiculous and someone at NZXT should be shot for that price. All that fans?! You have 600 in cooling alone, coupled with the hottest CPU known to man.... would you be interested in saving that money or deploying it properly to get: 1. World's fastest gaming CPU in the World!!! (yes, I know I used World twice) 2. World's fastest gaming GPU in the World!!!! (again) Up to you, but definitely have room for improvement unless you truly WANT what you posted. You could literally have the fastest gaming PC (in the world) with a little shifting.

  25. Absolutely necessary? No. but are more monitors more better? Yes, for all things.
  26. I got the same lens, when you take the back lens cover off there are some screws that you can unscrew to access the internals and then get access to the pieces on the inside. I would think that something is jammed inside there because at that point the lens moves the least. If you can fix it by just adjusting the springs go for it but chances are that its irreparable without professional help and parts which will more likey than not cost more then the lens. Its a kit lens (at least mine was) so shouldn't be too expensive to replace either new or second hand. Anything else would be more expensive then getting a new lens. Thats what I think though and I could be wrong as I am also an amateur in photography.
