As we head in to the long winter here in Chicago, I revisited a photo I took last spring. Shot on a Sony a7iv with the Sony FE 35mm f/1.8
Glad to hear he's recovering well. People underestimate the degree of deconditioning that happens after just a few weeks of immobilization and hospitalization. Looking forward to more great music from him.
But also... Tumblr?
Does anybody know of a credible organization to donate to that is providing aid for the victims?
Note: my experience is limited to the US medical system, so things may be different where you are. However, I definitely agree with getting wrist braces first while waiting for your appointment. Schedule an appointment with a primary care provider who can evaluate you and recommend either medications or refer you to a specialist. Often times carpal tunnel can be managed with over the counter medications, wrist braces, and avoiding the repetitive movements that exacerbate it (usually typing in today's world). If not, then the specialist of choice is often an orthopedic surgeon that specializes in wrist and hand surgery, though there are also plastic surgeons that specialize in hand surgery as well.

Oh, and for anyone interested. Shot with my Sony a7iv, Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 lens, aperture f/7.1, 3.2 second exposure on a tripod. The relatively long exposure is what gives the water jets that soft, smooth look
Took a little stroll through Chicago's downtown on Thursday night. Glad I brought my camera and tripod
Doctors of osteopathic medicine (D.O.) are legitimate doctors (at least from my experience in the US healthcare system). They function identically to doctors of allopathic medicine (M.D.) with the rare addition of osteopathic manipulation. But their standards of training and credentialing are essentially the same.

Florida is the darkest timeline.
Yeah the big draw of custom keyboards for me was trying different switches, so hot swap was a must. I already have more switches than I need. If I could do it over again, I would have first invested in a switch tester
It's the 1st generation Google Pixel Stand, a wireless phone charger. Overpriced and not worth the money since I prefer wired charging to maximize battery longevity
Still deciding. I'm relatively new to the hobby so still getting a feel for different switches. I've only recently become a fan of linears after discovering heavy linears, and now going back to tactiles feels so crunchy. The bananas have a very light bump at the top, so once you pop through that, they just feel like smooth linears. The bump for me basically serves to prevent accidental key presses when resting my fingers on the keys.
This is very quickly becoming a very expensive hobby...
Bottom is my first, a GMMK Pro with Gateron ink black V2 switches. And just yesterday I received the Keychron Q5 Pro with Keychron's own banana switches that I'll be using at work
Yes it was. The city had a super eerie feel back then, didn't it?
Oh that's cool, I didn't know the raised oar salute was a thing, but that makes sense.
They sometimes have boats too tall to pass through along the river, but they just raise one bridge at a time to minimize traffic disruptions. Kind of a fun spectacle to see if one hasn't seen it before
In 2020, Chicago raised its bridges leading downtown during the BLM protests to try to limit crime and destruction in the area. As cool as this shot was to capture, it's bittersweet to know the context of why the bridges were all raised.
I took this photo a few years ago in Chicago. There were still visitor restrictions related to Covid, hence the barriers around the iconic "Bean." Shot on my Sony a7iii on a tripod. If you're interested, I've got more photos on my Insta @bluu.ig
P7Pro has a larger screen at a higher resolution which will consume significantly more power. I'm sure some part of it is also due to inefficiency of the Tensor processor
