Cow Farts Have ‘Larger Greenhouse Gas Impact’ Than Previously Thought; Methane Pushes Climate Change

It's just hard to take seriously the current hand wringing over diesel emissions and the like from these agencies. Perhaps there could be a carbon-footprint like offset in how many cows one consumes to justify acquisition of a VW diesel. I miss my old W123 MB diesels; million mile engines, the 5 cylinder 3 liter diesel is a crowning achievement of engineering history - and one that would never be able to see a production line today under these regulations

My boss read about this in the WSJ and approved purchase. Going to put it through its paces in the next couple weeks. DxO ONE I think @wngrog might find it interesting. Shoots 20MP, RAW/JPG, f1.8, 1080p video and stores files on microSD instead of your phone.

microSD and adapter for size reference, you need a U3 grade microSD card for this gizmo.

My Samsung phone has a 64gb micro sd, takes 16mp pics and 1080p vid. Not extra device needed

No need. The more cows consumed, the less atmosphere damaging methane gas - chow down and drive a diesel... Have to admit to borrowing the idea from Ron White.

I remember the first time i personally encountered someone using the term "carbon footprint". We were fishing in NC and driving around late one afternoon - happened upon a young couple who had been kayaking and had her car stuck where she'd pulled off the road a bit too far. As I was getting a strap out and looking for a place to hook the 80 up to their vehicle, he was telling, in all seriousness, about running so many miles to meet her earlier that day because so they could take one car to the river. He did the run to her house to "reduce their carbon footprint by not driving that part of the day's outing"... I looked up from under her car and he wasn't laughing when he said it. Must have been around Asheville.
 
I would have unhooked the strap and said you should have brought two cars Mr. Carbon Footprint! See ya! These damn liberal tree huggers are going to be the death of this country!

Yes, we use iOS devices at work. The difference is the size of the image sensor (1"). This is near DSLR size, but something you can still shove in your jeans pocket. I wouldn't use it in place of my phone's onboard camera for just snapshots, but for taking quality architectural photos, certainly. It's not a wide enough lens for interiors, but for exteriors and sitework photos it'll be great.
 
Finally found out who is driving the pimped out black 100 at my gym. It's the smoke show karate instructor.

Seems like they've been adding more and more regular channels that you can stream. When they first launched it was only daytime crap available. Works for streaming your DVR'd shows, if your DVR is internet connected.

Watching Robin Meade right now at work :poof:
 
Poor guy. I tried this once.

I went back 8 years later.

Nah, it wasn't that bad. The kids did pretty good and I wasn't disappointed to leave at half with the way the game was going. I think Greta Kate got more into the game than Robert did. All that being said, I don't think they will be making another game this year.

You did catch me commandeering a discarded chair back for the wife.
