hehe good guess, but its only our rented house for uni, lucky we are not under any flight path/landing path so you cant even hear the:laugh:h:

hummm 10 miles from Heathrow could be Uxbridge, Harrow, Slough, or maybe near that big Ikea! lol (that almost rhymes)

That slow picture is very nice(Y), except that I can't see the dog. :wacko:

It never slows in Hong Kong, I miss my good ol' Korea. :cry:

That is simply..... SUPA DUPA FABULOUSLY COOL!!!

I wish I'm skilled enough to take pictures like that.

You don't have to be skilled. All u need to do is; go to your kitchen sink and put the tap on so it is dripping at least 2 times a second and then set your camera to a fast shutter speed with or without synchronised flash depending on your lighting. Finally, take the photos and hopefully u should get one which is satisfactory. I took about 15 different photos and i thought this was my favourite :cool:

Hope this helps :)

Oh thanks for the tip! (Y)

The only problem would be that I don't know how to configure shutter speed of my camera. :cry:

Just in case, my camera is Sony Cybershot T3.

Yes it is definitely possible with the Sony DSC-T3 as it has a max shutter speed of 1/1000th of a second and i think a max speed of 1/250th of a second with synchronised flash. All u need to do to get into high shutter speed mode is; press the menu button, it should come up with a menu that has pictures on it and you have to choose the pic of a golfer. Select that then u put the flash on or off depending on the lighting but the 'up' button with the pic of a lightning bolt on.

    • I've been using MWB Premium for a number of years so that along with Windows updates and updated browser should be fine. Thanks for that.
    • For some reason I suddenly have the urge to go shopping at Sears.
    • So I did a quick test based on 3+ different public instances from the litany at searx.space ... and it spins everything rather differently. It seems that SearXNG is a meta-search engine (queries multiple search indexes rather than only Google's or Bing's or Wikipedia's or Reddit's) that operates in two modes: > public instances ... each instance opens itself to outside users who piggyback on its cached search history; this instance's own identity becomes known/tracked but end-users are hidden similar to an anonymization proxy; this instance's querying of major search indexes may be API based [rated limited, blocked, etc.]). > private instances ... your private install/instance that itself queries multiple (configurable) search indexes of crawled web content; every major Search Engine associates all traffic to your private instance (so your traffic is tracked via network usages) but client-side tracking (your own browser/computer specs) is flushed because it's a "server" doing the querying rather than your browser. My test asked the same 1 question to the 3+ engines and they all returned vastly different results: some had CAPTCHA failures against Google, some had failures against Wikipedia, and the actual results were also different -- some had auto-complete enabled, others returned a wikipedia highlighted excerpt despite the Wikipedia failure (hinting at results being cached from previous keyword matching), and others just gave an Are-You-Human non-CAPTCHA loop before returning random results. So this begs the caveat: Search query results will vary based on which instance is used because every instance queries the other search indexes separate (and thus its results are influenced on that instance's aggregate search history and index-access limitations). The major distinctions for SearXNG versus DDG or Brave: > The search UI is 'untracked' since no UI trackers are baked-in which would phone home or lay cookies into your browser (for DDG/Brave usage stats), > There is no 'crawler' that canvasses the Internet to discover fresh content (it leaves that to the major search indexes), > Queries multiple search indexes ("meta-search engine") based on the configurations and usage history of the server instance, > Privacy-friendly due to its ability to shield user tracking via standing up a non-local server instance connectable to major VPN providers: queries would all appear to come from general VPN/Proxy providers rather than your private instance (whether installed locally or on your own VPS in the cloud). PS: I've previously come across specialized search engines of this nature that indexes searches across media assets like YT, OF, etc. SearXNG seems to be a good backbone...if the rate-limiting/captcha/etc. issues were resolved.
