Nice!!! Cameras are always a ton of fun. Soyl’s DSLR can technically fit the same lenses as its old film SLR, and so it’s been using that, as it does not have a modern lens, and it results in some interesting, vintage looking photos somehow.
The lens seems to not focus right with the viewfinder for whatever reason, so its always just guessing as to what the proper exposure/focus/etc is
ooooooh those are lovely - we thank it for sharing
Soyl finally bought a physical copy of Signalis. It had to search to find a good deal on a copy that contained the photo Elster carries, which was available as a preorder bonus (and some non-preorder copies while they had supply) as they tend to cost a lot more than a copy without, thankfully the one it got did not cost much more than one without said polaroid.
Being an early version of the game it has some content differences between the version it’s played, as well as a few minor things missing from the switch version.
There is a particular word that has been redacted from all newer releases of the game, with the game explaining that said word is an obscenity to the state, and all mentions of it are blanked out with black ink, however, in the early versions, the word is entirely uncensored, which is wild to see the differences considering how much attention it has paid to the game and all the details that it has seen before.
I didnt know about the word being uncensored in early release i tried to determine what the word was from ingame imformation but couldnt figure it out
it doesn’t wish to say in the forum as it does not wish to be deactivated /j for maybe spoiler reasons (having theories is fun) but it can confirm them over DMs or something
I think i will try and determine the word again when i try my next playthrough but i may ask sometime
Preorder from July came today. Will be interesting to go through it again when I have some down time. I’m also planning on pairing the promo cards with their original/matching printings
Bought a used Stetson Temple for $100 less than the new price (~$160 before shipping). It's 1 size too big; but 1, that's easily adjustable, and 2, for that price reduction it's worth it.
Liked my Jazzmaster while I had it, but it had fret issues, so I recently sold it.
As well, I sold it because I got this:
It is a 2024 Squier Sonic Mustang in special color Graffiti Yellow ($200 retail, got on sale for $160). It is a shorter scale [24 in.][1] than my other guitars above (Juniper being standard [25.5 in.] and Umi being Gibson Standard [24.75 in.]). To me, this makes it a little easier to larger stretches down the neck[2]. If you read my long post on the Orchard, this is what I wrote Cross Your T's on (not the midwest emo riff, that was on Juniper[3]).
It's primarily going to live in Standard/Drop-D with 11's on it, unless I need a second guitar in either DAEAC#E, FACGCE, or Drop C/C# for a different sound on a song
The Boss SD-1 Overdrive just came back in stock at my local music store, so finally picked one up. Expect to hear it in music eventually. Chain is currently SD-1 to Op-Amp Big Muff to CH-1 to TR-2 to DD-3 to RV-6
New crap acquired!
It is a small fan from NRD [1] with a cool counterweight design.
Its like quarter the size of the previous one and is really quiet [2]
I cleaned it as much as I could without taking it apart [3]
Some of the pictures in its natural habitat
And some from alternative angles
I don’t think the translucent plastic is suppose to have this yellow tint but I like how warm the light going through it looks.
You can tell it's 20th century german because it's all beige.
Interesting, I've seen tower fans with similar blade designs, but not that small and utilitarian looking. Always liked that aesthetic (coming from the owner of a 1952 Royal Quiet De Luxe)
In the bottom right picture the fan looks like a doggy 
It certainly is an nice design, lot more interesting to look at then normal fans.
I don’t think it is exclusively german thing as my polish lamp is literally painted with the same paint, but oddly enough I also associate this color with germany for some reason.
Maybe because it was used on trabant?
I also had german hairdryer in the exact same color [1], with doesn't help with fighting the stereotype XD
or maybe I assumed it was german because of the color? ↩︎
Yo! That Fate of Atlantis pin (if I know my sprites) is sick as hell!
It is! I love that game so much, so I had to get it. There was a matching Sophia pin as well that I might end up getting
Ah i was so excited to share guitar i missed the expensive part of OP.
here we have exhibit A of “wow-i-really-purchased-that..”
this harkens back to a time when the world stood still and i was locked away inside with dreams of becoming a jazz guitarist ʅ（◞‿◟）ʃ (it did not happen)
