    [PIC_THREAD] Landscapes, Architecture, Seascapes

    I've been trying out a water damaged lens that I've cleaned up in the hope of getting back into photography (that doesn't involve my son!). Detour on the way to work this morning: Closing Time, on Flickr Grave Rays, on Flickr Both out of camera JPGs, but I like them as is.

    Lightroom Setup

    Perhaps I'll have to find an external drive to use via USB or even just connect the NAS via USB and see if it's any quicker. Always been wary of external drives, but if it's sitting on my desk, not gonna be much worse than an internal drive. I'll probably just keep my output files on the cloud...

    Lightroom Setup

    Hi all, I've hit a bit of a low with regards to my photography and want to pick it back up again. One of the issues I currently have is with my home computer setup. How is everyone else running their photo storage? My main computer is a laptop with a 128gb SSD as its only storage. I have a...

    **** The Official Nokia 7 Plus Thread ****

    Well, if it's any consolation; those with the Nokia 6.1 on EE/BT aren't getting updates either!

    **** The Official Nokia 6 (2018) Thread ****

    I really should've thought of that! Will try shortly.

    **** The Official Nokia 6 (2018) Thread ****

    It's from CPW - as far as I'm aware it's only single sim plus SD card. Anywhere I can check?

    **** The Official Nokia 6 (2018) Thread ****

    The option is there and selectable in the developer options on my Nokia 6 (2018). Nothing to test it with though! First impressions are pretty good - was expecting it to be smaller than my 930. It's lighter and thinner but a bit wider. Used to it already so not a big problem. Android is fast...

    **** The Official Nokia 6 (2018) Thread ****

    I've ordered one of these today, will post first impressions after I set it up. After reading the description, I'm hoping it will feel reminiscent of my old HTC One S in hand but with proper android updates... Also moving to android after 4 years of Windows will be a bit of a shock!

    Are all phones flawed at the minute?

    Only because people associate plastic with not being a premium material. Polycarbonate allows wireless charging, light weight and durability.

    *** AMD "Zen" thread (inc AM4/APU discussion) ***

    Apparently they had to crank up the brightness on the LCD to match the brightness on the other screens - from what I gather from the comments, the other machines were much higher end. The APUs are likely to be in my next machine, albeit in desktop form, so I'm glad the performance seems to be...

    The return of the king? Nokia 8 and 9 series

    Well, if they can keep up the quick software updates, they could differentiate themselves by serving their customers better than anyone else. I think these flagships may play it a little safe to gain some traction; the interesting models will likely be the next ones. It's a shame the 6 has the...

    Moto G 5th Generation

    Waiting for a delivery of a G5 Plus as a replacement for (a surprisingly robust) Lumia 930 running Windows 10 Mobile. I'm looking forward to trying Android again after 3 years of Windows Mobile. However, going from the superb AMOLED screen, decent camera and durability of the 930 to an IPS LCD...

    If you have a lumia or nokia windows read this !!

    I don't think it's much of a surprise, given the recent release and the new continuum features. The main issue with the phones are the pack of 3rd party support and getting the developers on board with the other devices helps this no end; I can understand the focus elsewhere. The OS is still...

    If you have a lumia or nokia windows read this !!

    Unfortunately, I think it's a problem with my sensecore as my location bits are all turned on. It happened after a factory reset I did just after it updated. cu3ed, this is the update from the Upgrade Advisor; I'm not running as an insider, this is the first proper release of 10. I'm aware...

    If you have a lumia or nokia windows read this !!

    I've installed the official release on my 930. I'm enjoying the better responsiveness in the OS, modern mobile Office and other improvements like built in timer and flashlight features (yep, no more dodgy apps for basic functionality!). Always worth having for the latest apps, although there...

    Magic the Gathering (MtG)

    I think my deck least might be a bit wrong as I have only one Mastery of the Unseen! Will figure out what is missing... Most of the mill decks will involve ST at the moment, so will probably have a load of drawing. Mine will be slower and less competitive but more fun for all hopefully. What...

    Magic the Gathering (MtG)

    The full art lands will probably drop in value over time with the massive influx onto the market. I was going to get a fat pack for the lands but I have plenty, would be paying a lot for aesthetics! Going to the pre - release event next week though. I was meant to be playing in FNM with my...

    Which AMD APU? A8-6600K vs. A10 7700K

    Wouldn't it be better to go with a Kaveri based one even if it is just for the potential HSA benefits in software like Libre Office?

    Windows 10

    The majority of built in default "apps" are on the basic side, like picture viewers, pdf readers, basic email clients etc. Now that they run on the desktop, I don't see how the "modern" ones will be worse? The previous problem was that they pulled you from the desktop (which I hated) and that...
