Phone thickness is definitely up for debate but as someone who takes a lot of photos, the cameras of todays phones are vastly better than the early ones.

Here's some photos from my collection I found from that era.

I have a bunch of really good examples of pub nights but I don't want to post anything with people in them.

Unless you had perfect lighting conditions they looked like ass. In order to fix the problems you see in these photos you need a combination of larger sensors, larger lenses and optical stabilization. All of which we're bumping up against the limitations of physics.

Digital zoom is definitely not a replacement for optical zoom. Digital zoom is just cropping your photo on the fly, you might as well just do it yourself in post. Optical zoom retains the full sensor image. You can also modify focal length with optical zoom. I find myself lately standing further back and zooming in to get that background compression for more intimate shots that you get with a telephoto focal length.

Cameras on phones are getting good enough that I don't find myself reaching for my SLR much anymore.

I like how the Pixel 6 (my current phone) handled the bump, just one long bar across the back. It doesn't rock when you have it lying on a table and the bump actually slightly angles it towards your view. I wish there was more of that rather than the stove top bump on one side.

I know this is an odd take but I believe we just see the word ATM as a word instead of an acronym. We see ATM as an adjective now, like Sewing Machine or Answering Machine. That box in the wall is the machine that does the ATMing.

Something unsettling about seeing both L's in the Walmart font

TLDR: you can get it from the url http://epic.download

Looks like it only has Fortnite, Fall Guys and Rocket League on there for now

They used this article as a starting point and made up the news. The photo and date match the picture

I'm gonna say the news article is fake. It looks like they took this article as a starting point

https://malibutimes.com/caltrans-to-close-one-lane-on-pch-and-corral-canyon-for-bridge-construction

Photo matches, even the article date is the same

I think the numbers still stand. The long time adjusted R rated box office winner was The Exorcist which is $1.011 Billion adjusted. Joker beat that with $1.078 so Deadpool and Wolverine is now the clear winner and it still has lots of theatre run to go.

Whole heartedly agree D4 last season was an absolute banger probably my favorite Diablo to date

I'll never buy Maxwell House and Folgers again! I mean I never bought them previously...

I just installed a few coma patients around the house. If there's privacy concerns should I uninstall them?
