is this pic real? Julie Bowen looks like a bobblehead by obamanwooin Modern_Family

[–]alemerson 4 points5 points ago

This looks like it was taken with a wide angle lens up close and angled down to include the feet. This type of angle tends to exaggerate the head and minimize the feet. Take a look at the next picture. She looks like shes in big head mode too. Its just an artifact of the lens.

Macbook pro randomly shutting off without warning, any ideas? It's becoming incredibly frustrating by captian_quickshitin applehelp

My MBP is doing this. Im pretty sure mine is a battery issue. Does yours turn off at around the same percentage every time? Mine dies abruptly at about 25%. Maybe one of the cells is not functioning correctly anymore.

As an engineer I am in love with this watch. Is it good quality? by hectorse2011in frugalmalefashion

[–]alemerson 1 point2 points ago

I own this swatch watch that is my every day wear. I wear it with a black leather band though. I hate the metal band look.

Is the 27" iMac optical drive the same as the MBP? by fenrisulvurin applehelp

[–]alemerson 0 points1 point ago

I doesn't look like it. I am assuming that you have the latest 27".

Here is what the drive looks like for 27"

Here is what the drive looks like for MBP

My MBP battery is on its last leg. "Condition: Replace Now." Am I in danger? by alemersonin applehelp

[–]alemerson[S] 0 points1 point ago

I got really excited for a second. But I have the late 2008 mbp, the first unibody. So no great deals for me

It's not really NYC, but I have been working on a barge drilling for soil samples below the Tappan Zee Bridge. Here is where I spend my days: by brickmajin nyc

[–]alemerson 2 points3 points ago

So this means depending on your findings, maybe, possibly, in the future the we'll replace that bridge with something a bit safer?

My first G5 Hackintosh build! by rmw156in hackintosh

[–]alemerson 0 points1 point ago

Do you think cpu power has an effect on how fast your adobe apps open? I just bought the same hdd and installed it in a late 2008 MBP 2.53 Core 2 Duo with 4gb of ram. I just tried opening photoshop cs5 and it definitely took about twice as long to open. (still only about 4 seconds). What do you think?

Photoshop .PSD Nesting/Consolidation Practices? Also, small troubleshooting input if possible! by RevisionZeroin photoshop

[–]alemerson 0 points1 point ago

Something is strange about your experience. I just tried opening a 557MB file (granted thats mostly one large picture in there) and it took about 7 seconds to open on my late 2008 MBP, 2.53GHz Core Two Duo w/ 4GB DDR3 Ram running PS CS5. I was able to quickly option-click a text layer so everything else was invisible and shuffle the text around without any hang ups.

If you want to dropbox me the file (send pm with link), then i can try and reproduce what you're saying in CS5.

As for file nesting, I do it all the time. I group related elements in groups, and try to condense everything until my layers view is only folders. I use this technique when designing webpages, so each page is a folder. Ive never had a problem doing it this way.

TIL there are special contacts designed for sports players to help them quite literally keep their eye on the ball by Stink_Eyein todayilearned

[–]alemerson 1 point2 points ago

This same type of lens can be found in sports sunglasses. Its just a color filter that emphasizes a certain color spectrum. Check Bolle's lens simulator to see an illustration of the effect.

It's too flat. If it was breaking, we could probably start to see the sides of the pieces
