    @George-K said in Wordle...: I've said how bad I am at these types of games (Jumble, eg). You are more of a Whatzit guy, I can figure this out most days, it gets easier after you do it for a while. It is next to the Sudoku which I do most days.

    As will anybody who supported her. This will be a rude awakening for their very souls.

    @jon-nyc said in Predicting Tucker: If it was a lie it was Tuckers since he’s the one that said it. Well, that's certainly one simple minded way of looking at it.

    Boston College was 4 miles from my house, so I could walk there. My father went there, my grandfather went there. There was no need for any extra visit, an easy decision. When I started there the majority were commuters, after 4 years the majority were residents. I think it is now 100% residents. No more living in your parents house and walking to school.

    Excellent outcome. I hate that it happened in Ohio, but glad it turned out correctly.

    @taiwan_girl said in Hey Klaus!: What do you guys think of mirrorless digital SLR cameras? They're a bit better than DSLRs but either take fine images. Same sensor technology, although most companies now (outside of Nikon) are putting their R&D into mirrorless. Digital viewfinders give you more information than an optical, which is what you normally get with a DSLR. True opticals can't give you a live histogram, focus peaking or highlight readings, and digitals can. A lot of mirrorless cameras are lighter enough to be noticeable. The downside is the battery life, but that's becoming a moot point. The only reason to have a DSLR rather than a mirrorless is if you've already invested too much in DSLR glass for the upgrade to be worth it. Which it wouldn't be. That's why Nikon came out with a new DSLR on its standard mount system right before the olympics: the market was professionals in exactly that situation.

    This is simply a dodge to try to free up frozen overseas funds. Nothing will change.
