It's amazing that they can measure the speed of sound at all given this. They must need to line up a bunch of eardrums.

That's my take too. Short for "this requires you to follow a steep learning curve, even if it is not easy to do so."

Ha! Well I was just having a laugh. Expecting that you would prefer "you should damp your expectations" and that my construction should mean "make your expectations wet." And it turns out dampen is ambiguous. It means both moisten and dull, deaden, make weak.

Not only that, but most every form carries both meanings, and the "weaken" sense for the word damp predates the "humid" sense. Because the noun came first and it was specific to suffocating fumes in a mine that would extinguish candles, and people.

So my take now is that dampening means both "making weak" and "humidifying, moistening." Only damping is specific to motion/energy. And I can't recall encountering anyone using damping to mean "making wet."

You should probably dampen your expectations on this one.

Darktable is fantastic, but the learning curve is steep for great results. It took us months to get comfortable with it after using Capture One, Lightroom, Photoshop/ACR. It's different. Our first efforts looked like crap.

For someone processing just a few files I think RawTherapee is probably easier and likely to give better results with limited effort.

Try Alt+Wheel

It's not that one charging location was down. It's that the current battery tech can't charge in cold conditions without using some of its own power to heat the battery cells. This means people need to anticipate the cold and charge earlier and more often than they typically do.

Those who didn't were stranded.

This is a real limitation of the current technology. Not a deal breaker for most people, but it's a learning curve and a potential inconvenience.

Just get into a habit of muttering "it's not vodka" whenever you drink from it. That should put everyone's mind at ease!

Looks custom. It seems unlikely that Lenovo would offer this.

Run your fingernail across the transition in each direction. Is the carbon fiber part higher than the rubber coating, or lower?

I like LibreOffice Draw for this.

And if you did, and want a fun tech project to track what species are in your yard, check out BirdNET Pi: https://github.com/mcguirepr89/BirdNET-Pi

Legrand makes a recessed keystone wall plate that may help. There are also other recessed and angled plate options that may help.
