The Official Head-Case Photography Thread.

The colors are fantastic (very accurate), Al. Are these all straight out of the RX1/RX1R? -
Blocking a highway is quite possibly the dumbest thing anyone protesting can do. I am not against the protests but blocking the highway has resulted in one of my classmates being forced to give birth in her car on Friday (the baby did not survive due to complications at birth) and 3 physicians not being able to get the ER on time, one of whom was a trauma surgeon. Are the protesters assuming responsibility for any lives put in unnecessary danger or those lost as a direct consequence of their actions? While I am not black, I have been on the receiving end of racist remarks and actions on more occasions than I care to count. Given the current climate, there's a very high likelihood of getting arrested at a protest if things get slightly out of hand. Blocking a street where traffic can at least be diverted one thing but blocking a highway is irresponsible regardless of how worthy the cause is. Lives have already been lost and more continue to be lost as a result of some very emotionally charged people acting irresponsibly. The right to peacefully protest is a constitutionally protected one but there is a time and more importantly a place for it. Highways are NOT it.

Got an email back from schiit saying the dac was noisy with the grado gr10 which is not as sensitive as the Jh 16. recommended I cancel the order since it was not the tool for the job. Extremely impressed with their honesty. Will likely buy from them in the future.

School/Gaming Laptop Recommendations
crappyjones123 replied to Voltron's topic in GoRedwings19's Computer Help Hotline
For the absolute newest games, yes, the air would be a crappy gaming machine. For the 15 year old 1.6, 10 year old css and gmod, 4 year old csgo, I doubt one needs a super beefy gfx card. Besides I've played those games (besides robocraft) on a macbook air without issue. Didn't run at 300fps but I got a pretty good 100 - 120 fps. No, I am not baiting anyone into a what fps humans can really see and whether one should bother past 60fps. -

Lol @ "up to 240 minutes." Trying to make 4 hours seem like more than it really is. Real world performance would be what? 2 hours? All three games you mentioned, Al, are available for mac so any consideration for a macbook air? I have run css on it in the past and it runs just fine. I know you mentioned non mac but given that the games are available for mac without any wrappers or emulators and how light the air is, it might be appreciated in the long run. The extra pound or 2 got to be after a while especially if other things are in the backpack. -
After 1750% funding of soapstone to replace ice and the kid wanting to make potato salad, I don't think asking for $12 is a ridiculous proposition. PS. Fuck it. Ordered one. Would likely spend $12 on shipping/paypal fees trying to sell it if it doesn't work out anyways.

15% restocking fee. I'll wait until they end up on the used market I guess.

Would something like this help with not hearing the noise floor on the jh16s? There are times when I can't use my speakers (roommate in the apartment or julie studying nearby) and want to use the jh16s but the output on my desktop is noisy (as expected).

Bleh. Wish there were a way to surprise Julie with them. I guess she will know what her christmas present is. Thanks for the link.

This just popped on my Facebook feed - http://www.spigen.com/iphone-6-plus-case-neo-hybrid.html

I have the apple leather case. Expensive but I got a $50 gift card for some reason when getting a new phone so just go the one at the store. Works well enough. Only issue is that the jh16 jack does not go in all the way. In the store someone else had the same case and when I tried it on theirs, it went in just fine. Minor product variation I guess.

Am I alone in thinking Amazon has failed miserably in their more recent forays in mobile/content consumption devices?

Happy birthday Gene.

The Official Head-Case Photography Thread.
crappyjones123 replied to Knuckledragger's topic in Miscellaneous
I know - that's why I even posted it in the Photo Critique section, not the People forum asking what I could do better. Just wasn't expecting so many things. On the other hand I am thankful for the critique once the original stinger wore off. Tells me specifically where the post processing went wrong instead of just hollow likes/dislikes. -

Not sure if serious... I posted it and some black and white conversions to fred Miranda and essentially got torn a new one. I thought it was a reasonably good image until I read the 6 paragraph post telling me everything that was wrong with it. -
