That Vulcan taking off was extreeeeemly loud damn they said to cover your ears but I was at the top end of the runway and it ROOOOARED off the tarmac like an F1 Mclaren which is great shape for such an old bird.

Yeah The Vulcan was definitely very cool. I too was surprised when you realise how old it is. First time going, I work nearby and heard the planes last time :P 

 

What did you use to take those pictures? 

Very nice image Pixel its certainly very scenic round there.

I used a cannon 700D with a 70-300 F4 zoom, images are not as crisp as Id like but I dont have ?300 or more to spend on a higher spec lens

Very scenic pictures. I guy that I work with went to Devon at the weekend and showed my the pictures that he took. The changes in the scenery in the UK are just amazing. 

 

Ah cool, once I get better at taking pictures I need to invest in a proper camera and move away from my point and shoot.

These are from a Fuji X10 which you can pick up for about ?100.

 

Maybe one day I will own a big boy camera :)

Most of what he writes is garbage and appears to be extremely canon biased in his reviews (nothing nikon ever makes is as good as canons) however, he does have some good articles to read here and there:

Took this one yesterday morning at about 3am.

Came out okay, was practicing with shutter speed, iso, and all that good stuff.

I did post tweak the colors (the lights you see give off a green glow which shows up bad in long shutter times.)

Just you dude ;)

 

I've had this problem before there's something up with the Neowin uploader where the pic is visible sometimes and not others.

Nice shot! You have a "classic" horror film look going on there!

    • What? They aren't removing the disc drive and charging $800 for questionable performance upgrades that are better suited to a new generation console? How outrageous!
    • Bummer it's only 1TB instead of 2. I had one of those - the "Halo Special Edition" OG Xbox. This looks like a cool update.

    • Google's NotebookLM gets some useful features you may have been waiting for by Aditya Tiwari It's been three years since Google introduced its AI-powered note-taking and research app, NotebookLM. Just when Apple is about to kick off WWDC 2026, the search giant has announced a platter of new NotebookLM features that add agentic capabilities in chat and more advanced reasoning. For starters, NotebookLM now draws its fuel from Gemini 3.5 and Antigravity to improve accuracy and reliability. One of the things people have been asking for a long time is more transparency into the thinking steps. NotebookLM now shows expanded thinking steps in chat, providing better visibility into the thinking process. Google compared the upgraded NotebookLM with prior versions and found that it "achieved an average win rate of over 65% — a 15% point margin above parity — across our top five core evaluation dimensions," including accuracy & quality, multilingual support, large document analysis, document creation, and advanced research. It showed substantial improvements in analyzing large documents, achieving a 69.9% win rate. The system also delivered "exceptional performance" in advanced web research and source discovery with a 78.2% win rate. The AI research tool now generates outputs in more formats. You can give instructions to guide the outputs and download the generated files from the studio panel. Here are the newly supported formats: PNG and SVG for data visualizations and charts PDFs, docx, markdown, and text files for documents PNG, JPG, and GIF for images JSON and CSV for structured data XLSX for Microsoft Excel PPTX for Microsoft PowerPoint You can make edits after the outputs are generated. The feature is available globally; therefore, you can provide directions in one language and create outputs in another. Google said that it's also making it easier to get started with a project in NotebookLM. Instead of having a list of sources beforehand, you can even start with loose ideas, and NotebookLM can help build the repository of sources through the chat. For instance, you can find primary sources in other languages to get new perspectives or explore related works of an author. All of these new features are rolling out globally for those who can loosen up their pockets. They are available to users with Google AI Ultra and all Workspace business customers with AI Ultra access. Google has plans to expand them to more users in the future.
