   Deleted my account for "advertising"

   Former blogger for Second Life virtual world. ~ Had my account revoked after I was told my blogging was "advertising", even though 100's of other users do the exact same thing. Years of work down the tubes. Will never use it again. ~ Note: They are doing this to push for "PRO" memberships, because the company is hurting for money.

• Instagram alternatives for promoting business, now that EU laws messed it up?

  Is flickr.com still alive? It used to be so cool back in the day, but I dropped off from photography in general over like the past decade, so have no clue how things are going over there. Source: 8 months ago

• 20mm or 35mm prime lens

  20mm will look wider on your Z6II than your D40x but it should look the same as it does on any other FX body like the D780 or the D850. Go on flickr.com and search for photos taken with 20mm lenses. You can type 20mm in the search bar. Make sure you look at photos taken with full a full frame camera. If those match the look you are going for, go ahead and grab the 20mm. Source: about 1 year ago

• Some kid said you only these maintenance trains every 20 years?

  If it was like the post on 'flickr.com' saying it was a ''19354 DDM45'' Then I know the info to that. Source: about 1 year ago

• Karina & Winter (HQ 12MP)

  They should do https://flickr.com/ and gives us hi-res images. 😅. Source: about 1 year ago

• Question to Experienced ancestry user:

  When you scan your images, you can reduce the quality. You might consider getting a subscription to an on-line photo system, like flickr.com, where you can upload original images of high quality. You could have lower-quality ones on ancestry, or just use an outside link to the photo record you have. Source: about 1 year ago

• Many people don't pay full price, Most don't want to pay at all for news

  Some people continue to pay full price. (Thank you.) And the rest of the world leaches the content. If there was a means to subscribed I would. https://bbc.com/news. - Source: Hacker News / 6 days ago

• Why is mainstream media coverage of France so limited?

  It's everywhere I get the news. If you want a deep dive, just go to France24.com or LeMonde.fr/en or even bbc.com/news. Source: over 1 year ago

• Biden calls 'emergency' meeting after missile hits Poland

  Aight so the general idea here is it's not absolutely certain that Russia shot it and they're definitely denying it. Poland's trying to keep calm to avoid having to invoke article 4 and are leaning on the side of "accident" at the moment. This is almost certainly going to be fine, but if you want to stay up to date on it go to the BBC for decently unbiased reporting. Source: over 1 year ago

• Trader blames Brexit for soaring price of fish – but BBC edits it out

  It's similar to the memory hole effect with online news sites. If you initially release an article with inaccurate or misrepresented headline and contents, then change it later on without any record of the change (something the BBC has repeatedly done on bbc.com/news) you get a difference in perception of a news event based on when someone saw/read the coverage.

• Boris Johnson calls for calm after a fiery fourth night of violence in Northern Ireland

  True. I visit news.sky.com and bbc.com/news front page daily and I only found about it yesterday. Source: about 3 years ago
