Yeah, I've been noticing that a lot of British snacks are meat flavored but contain no actual meat, like roast beef Monster Munch and even the prawn cocktail ch—crisps.
You would not want or expect meat in the prawn cocktail crisps but I get your point;)

Bought this stuff on sale too plus free shipping... even if I saved $50 off msrp, I still think it's pricey. Oh well... happy birthday to me... which it actually is... LOL
 
Samsung QE65Q70 QLED 65”

Went from a 49 to a 65. Colors are beautiful.

I have this exact same TV (Actually used only for my gaming room.) The craftsmanship is something that actually surprises me, it looks great and is one of the highest rated TVs on the market in terms of overall longevity with the chipset and very few hardware problems. Enjoy.
 
Just purchased the Brydge 12.9 Max+ keyboard/trackpad case for my 12.9” iPP.
Very satisfied and works great.
Love the new, magnetic snap-in hard cover for the iPad. Securely snaps in but can be removed easily enough.
Does add some weight to the set up as essentially the keyboard portion is a large battery but no problem.

Very comfortable computing using it with the Levenger Lap Desk in my recliner.

Thanks for confirming, I really wasn't aware of that.
So getting older isn't all that bad :D
People generally tend to get long-sighted as they get older, so previously short-sighted people can find their eyesight improves.

It's not a miracle though... lots of people end up both long and short-sighted, needing corrective lenses for both reading, and others for distant use.

Is the cam link for your camera? I’m curious how well the link works when connected to a macbook via a thunderbolt usb hub .

Your setup looks nice.

Thanks... I'm not sure how well it works connected to a macbook via a thunderbolt usb. Don't have on to test. All I can say is the the Elgato Cam Link 4k is a popular capture card, and recommended by a lot of content creator influencers... which isn't saying much... LOL

It does work well with my DSLR (EOS R) and Mirrorless (A7riii). My setup has changed since I posted that pic... and it is still in the process for another change. So I don't go off topic, I did purchase another Elgato product... The Elgato Facecam... because I found a 10% discount code....

Every Elgato product I purchased were on sale or discounted... which is still pricey... haha Anyway, both camera's are using a usb camlink. It works well on my mirrorless A7riii, but my EOS R turns off about 30 to 45 minutes in... I think it's overheating and shuts off. That's one of the reasons why I ordered the Elgato Facecam. I was using my EOS R as my static corner cam... which is a small picture anyway. Planning replace the EOS R with the Elgato Facecam, and move the EOS R below my right monitor facing my Wacom Tablet and mouse when editing.

I actually didn't receive my Elgato Facecam yet... so yes... the box on the pic is Photoshop'd... if you couldn't tell.. :)

Really clean setup, I think having (almost) everything from the same brand makes it look really professional. What kind of content do you create an where can we get a peek?

I shoot portraits for fun, mostly IG influencers... then word got around at socials, and I started making some extra cash from it. Not all the influencers are fake, but I have been asked to manipulate all kinds of things in their photos. If you can think of it, I probable did that edit... LOL... I've been doing this for maybe a little over 3 years... but I got really good at Photoshop. I built my rig to do my content creation work for my regulars, and then I thought it would be a good idea to record my work. I still want to learn more of the apps in Adobe Creative Cloud, so I'd like to document my progress. I'm still working on setting up my sources in OBS studio... I've done some test recordings... but I still suck at it... so nothing published yet. Another reason why I'm doing this is to help me communicate better and break out of my shell... so I still have to practice, and not suck as much...

I posted recently of my manipulated work in a thread lately titled "I Hate Photoshop"... which is about Fake manipulated pictures posted in social media... haha...


They are gifs and before/after examples... but my plan is to record the process of my edits when my setup is ready, and share them when I feel comfortable with my recordings. oh... I might even stream PC and VR gaming also.
