Hey Ford beat Ferrari in Le Mans

That's because studded tires should only be used on ice. Even in winter on dry roads studded tires have worse traction than even all season tires do. Realistically very few people should even own studded tires because stud less winter tires are just better in most situations.

Winter tires are not just about the snow. They have better dry traction in the cold as well.

I mean she is beloved in the north country. That's the problem.

Yeah except those statues didn't go up until well into the 1900's.

The rain. My dog will ask to go out, see it's raining when I open the door and give me this pleading look. He has a raincoat but if it's raining heavily it's not really enough.

If you don't trigger any effects

OK and what about for the people who one drink does trigger an effect?

a single drink for most adults

Again, what about for the people who it does? You're being quite absolute here. What I'm saying is you cannot use amount alone to determine whether or not it's problematic. You said it yourself, it's a factor. You originally used it as a determinant.

So no, that is not in fact how addiction works. I've spent the last 10 years studying psychology and I'm a PhD student in the field now.

That's not how addiction works. Firstly, addiction is not a defined term in the medical or psychological fields so the conversation is kind of pointless. Secondly, amount has nothing to do with it. Lots of people have a "nightcap to help them sleep" every night. That is dependence and problematic or colloquially, addiction even if it's only one drink.

Technically it's more like 80% but still cool.

Excuse me but I loved my Zune.

That doesn't make sense though. How'd you get to 302? 302 times farther should only be about 302 light days away. It should be 365x4.25=1,551.25 light days farther from us.

How dare you disparage the amazing Fiero!

 

Can anyone help me solve this? I have a Samsung Galaxy Watch (I believe it's the original, I got it in 2019) and ever since my phone (S23 Ultra) last updated it doesn't save my notification settings. I like to have it set so that my watch still notifies me while I am on my phone and that when my watch is connected to my phone it silences notifications on my phone. I can still set that, but when I turn it off at night it resets the settings so every morning I have to open the wearable app and redo my settings. Does anyone know how to fix this?

 

I'm looking at getting into photography and I'm trying to decide on what camera would be best for me. One of the primary things I'm interested in is nature photography when I'm out on hikes.

I spoke with someone I know into photography and he seemed to be pushing me towards full frame cameras. Given the prices for these cameras (I'm fine with used) it seems like I have to make a bit of a choice between older full frame and newer aps-c.

After doing some research here are the cameras I am currently considering:

Sony a7

Sony a7R II

Sony a6400 (or maybe a6500)

Nikon D800

Canon EOS 5D Mk III

Canon M50 Mk II

These are sort of organized by how interested in them I am. The pricing varies a bit for them, but with the cheaper ones I'd be able to get more lenses sooner and/or feel less bad about upgrading it in 2 years if I get really into it. So would the a7 or a7r be a good way to go to get a good balance of things or is something like a D800 still worth it today? Or is it just that worth it to have something like the a6400/6500 today to have newer features?
