If microtransactions went live, does that mean that what we have now is pretty much the final version ? I hope not because it seriously lacks content, and the feeling that you have to buy gold if you want to get anything (or grind for hours on a limited range of activities) is strong. Compared...

Massive drop for pretty much all cryptocurrencies today, following China's ban on ICO's Also interesting read on Bitfinex : Are Fraudulent Tethers being used for margin lending on Bitfinex?

Considering the A7 costs 999$ new , 750 doesn't seem to be an amazing deal, unless it comes with a lens. Rather than the amount of clics, my main concern would be : how was the camera handled when it came to changing/swapping the lens ? I am super paranoid about dust, sensor cleaning is no joke...

When I heard the first reviews and saw that the movie didn't do so well the first few days, I thought that this was due to the fact that the comics it's based on is unknown in the US, people don't like novelty, blablabla, and started making up all kind of excuses in my head. I was pretty sure it...

The idea behind getting your xbt out of the exchanges and onto your own soft/hard wallet was also that some of the exchanges are not supporting bitcoin cash at all. This roughly translates into : you get robbed out of something you would have owned had you been in control of the private keys...

from a trip through Armenia a couple days ago : and a couple more pics in the travel section post : Armenia

Just got back from a 2 weeks journey through Armenia + Artsakh (it's a fairly small country, about the size of Belgium). All in all, fantastic trip ! I'll share a few things that I enjoyed there, so that you get an idea what to expect. -Fantastic landscapes. It's a landlocked mountainous...

Fantastic steakhouse : Strip House (15 W 44th St) Try the truffle creamed spinach as a side, it's delicious.

The maps displayed on the walls of the subway stations can actually be quite useful. They are not maps of the subway station itself, but maps of what is located over the station and show you where you will end up in the streets outside if you follow a given exit number.

Was in Toronto for two weeks, here are a couple shots I made there :

Le Mesturet (77 Rue de Richelieu) Quite similar to the "Bougainville" in many ways. Also, good selection of wines here. La Poulette de Grain (261 Rue du Faubourg Saint-Antoine, next to Nation) : know that they also serve a good brunch (but only in the weekends I think) Le bistrot de Maëlle et...

I know quite a lot of restaurants in the center of Paris (had my office for 8 years not far from Opera/Le Louvre), so I'll throw in a couple addresses I like : Good bread and "petits pains" : -Du pain et des idées (34 Rue Yves Toudic, next to Republique). This is a no contest. Just go there and...

Hehehe know exactly what you mean :p As for entry level DSLR, Subotai's advice is spot on : pick a brand, get something cheap. You could even get a used/refurbished one. No need to buy a whole bunch of lenses, just start with a versatile one (like a 16-50, or 24-70 ; I'd avoid fixed focal...

If shot on film / analog photography, this would be achieved during the processing of the film, by waiting a bit more when the paper is exposed under the enlarger. That would be the best solution imho (no quality loss by avoiding the extra steps of scanning and computer editing). You can do it...

Nice pics, I really like the portrait. You asked for critique, so let's be constructive ! :p For the first pic, I would tell you the very same thing I told Drek when he was posting in this thread on the previous site : Do not be afraid of the dark :) In your first picture, the whites are grey...

One of the best advices I ever got regarding photography was given to me by a journalist in Edinburgh, and I've been sticking to it 95% of the time since* : Manual mode : F5.6 - 1/500 ; and work from there. (as well as being locked to 200iso, and shooting in raw, but if you have an SLR, you...

Ok, just came back from the theater. How do I put this ? If I had to do an analogy, I'd say this movie is to the original what would happen if Mc Donalds tried to make sushi. Story wise, the movie is both a dumbed down version and has major plot changes (it's about the same magnitude of...

Ok some good news ! Release date : April 7 (movie theaters / US) And March 31 in the UK it seems ? with DVD and Vod April 24

Well, looks like you put your finger on a problem they have with this movie : distribution/marketing. I thought that the movie might already be available on dvd, but it seems that it's not the case, and can't find a release date. My guess is that they will try to go to a couple more festivals...

Saw it this weekend at a movie festival, had never heard of it before (yet it was released in April 2016), had absolutely no idea what it was going to be about (I thought it was SF when I registered for the screening), and ended up being quite a ride. I just loved it. It has been a long time...

Title: The Void Tagline: There Is a Hell. This Is Worse. Genre: Horror Director: Jeremy Gillespie, Steven Kostanski Cast: Aaron Poole, Kathleen Munroe, Art Hindle, Daniel Fathers, Kenneth Welsh, Ellen Wong, Stephanie Belding, Mik Byskov, Grace Munro, James Millington, Evan Stern...

Related to the TV show. Been playing for a couple days now, personnaly I really like it. The concept : you found a mobile in the street, and start getting messages from the previous owner, who wants to get a file back from the sim card (which has been wiped when you reset the phone). He/she'll...

Just came back from a two week trip in Uzbekistan. All in all, it was a great experience. Only real downside was that it was quite hot (temperature was between 30 to 45C / 86 to 113F). We went as a group of 5 friends who had already traveled together before (did Mongolia last year and Japan a...

Went to the "Mondial du Tatouage" convention in Paris yesterday, here are a few shots First one is Maud Dardeau from Tintin Tatouages (Paris, France) Artist is Hua (from Taiwan) Joao Bosco from London (he does lots of snakes) Piece by Monster Family (based in Guingamp, France)...

Just got back from a trip in Scotland. Beautiful place. The outdoors pics really do not do the landscape justice.

why is this not a movie yet ? >_<

Went with a couple friends who were training at the track last weekend, had never tried to shoot fast moving vehicles and thought it might be fun to try, here is a couple shots.

Quite a lot indeed ! Thanks again. I started with Darker than Black (first one I could get my hands on) as well as Knights of Sidonia (you got my attention when you said "it's great, but the animation can turn people off", so I watched a few episodes right away. I do like that style !) As...

Thank you for the advices Kaige

Looking for advice here ; it has been a while since I've followed what's happening in the anime world. What would be the good stuff released in the last couple years (movies or series) ? I mean the quality level of something like GITS/Akira. More looking for sci-fi / adult oriented stuff, and...

Tusk (2014) - IMDb god that movie was terrible, far worse than most of the movies listed here, and I am saying that as someone who used to love Kevin Smith movies. It's not the kind of movie "that's so bad it's funny" like Troma movies and such. It's just shit, as is Justin Long's acting. I...

a really interesting article in NY Times about Peter Lik (guy who sold the most expensive photography : 6.5 Million, and he supposedly made something like 440 Million from selling landscape photos) : Log In - The New York Times It's well worth the read, but if tldr, here is a quick summary ...
