I had Erwin take a video during practice last tuesday using my Lumix. I wanted to see just how good the quality of the video was given the specs of the camera. So basically when shooting on a 16:9 ratio, the Lumix gives you hi-def resolution (1280×720) Although with extremely lousy audio compared to the Cybershot. Here’s a sample:
The video is available in its full resolution as well. Unfortunately, playing it in HD requires you to visit the video’s “official page” for it to work. Which is a bummer since I wanted to be able to have people view the HD content straight from the embed.
There’s also some footage of me driving through the storm that night; should give you an idea how it the video does in low light conditions.
Spring cleaning
The most common usage of spring cleaning refers to the yearly act of cleaning a house from top to bottom which would take place in the first warm days of the year typically in spring, hence the name. However it has also come to be synonymous with any kind of heavy duty cleaning or organizing enterprise. A person who gets their affairs in order before an audit or inspection could be said to be doing some spring cleaning.
So I guess for lack of a better term, that’s exactly what I’m trying to do with my room… and failing miserably at it.
Not really “failing,” but I’m the type of guy who likes to get things done quickly once started – and for some reason, I can’t seem to get a good flow in reorganizing shit beyond my main desk.
Still, it’s better than nothing.
How stupid do they think we are!?
So Denon’s selling digital interconnects at 500 dollars a pop. Cable is 5 feet btw in case anyone’s interested.
It’s basically an ethernet cable, which could be had at $3 at that same length. Yeah, it’s the same shit you use to connect your computer to broadband internetz.
I had tears in my eyes (from laughing) after reading one of the comments/reviews:
If I could use a rusty boxcutter to carve a new orifice in my body that’s compatible with this link cable, I would already be doing it. I can just imagine the pure musical goodness that would flow through this cable into the wound and fill me completely – like white, holy light. Holding this cable in my hands actually makes me feel that much closer to the Lord Jesus Christ.
I only make $6.25/hr at Jack in the Box, but I saved up for three months so I could have this cable. It sits in a shrine I constructed next to my futon in Mother’s basement.
I only gave it four stars in my review because I can’t find music that is worthy enough to flow through this utterly perfect interconnect.
