BTW, if you find yourself in the Murell's Inlet are and hungry for some seafood - Hot Fish Club - those people know good food. She Crab Soup & Grilled Grouper are freaking amazing - so is their lobster pot pie ...

Netflix is really nothing more than TBS on a subscription model ...

@ammy @pluralistic This reminds me of how Hershey's makes chocolate.

First their research lab makes a new chocolate bar, using all the best ingredients.

Once they have it perfected, they bring in consumers to rate it.

Then they cheapen the ingredients, and do a taste test again.

And they repeat that process until they have found the absolute cheapest version of the chocolate bar that consumers still thinks tastes good enough to buy.

h/t to @bhawthorne , who originally passed that info on to me.

@proactivebusybody organization of files, ability to edit multiple files

@proactivebusybody Bridge picks up everything on the card - for each shot there is a RAW AND JPG file version. There is no way (that I can tell) to just import the RAW into bridge, then delete - just leaving the JPGs on the card for me to transfer to Google Photos. So, to tell Bridge I only want to import RAW files ... I have to click on each and every single RAW file which can be a lot of clicking ... then I have to do the same w/ Google Photos in selecting the JPG images ...

@proactivebusybody I do that now ... but if I take over 50 pictures - which is quite normal - I have to select the 50 that's going into Google and then select the 50 that's going into Bridge. If I could get Bridge just to pull the RAW files ... I would be set :)

Any Adobe Bridge users here? Is there a way to just import the RAW files off the card using Bridge? I like shooting in RAW + JPG to store my JPG images in Google Drive. But maybe I am going about this all wrong ... maybe I need to rethink my image file strategy, workflow and storage ...

Everyone at the New Year's Eve party I went to has COVID except for my partner and I - we've tested twice. How does that happen? I am pretty sure the vaccine helped - thank you science!
