Re: QUESTION (Apparently solved)
It all comes down to Fonts! The number of Fonts in Win 10 is significantly reduced compared to Win 8/7. PSE Editor hangs because it can no longer find certain fonts. One solution is to replace the Win 10 Fonts folder with the Win 8/7 version but the simplest is to check the "Use System Fonts" in preferences. Easy hey? So far, so good. Hopefully I've saved $80 on an upgrade.

Thanks for the heads up. I have my diner blog on Posterous, ( http://dinerdan.posterous.com/ )but I haven't posted anything there for quite a while. When it was taken over by Twitter, I concluded the end was in sight. It was very convenient to use, and it is sad to see it go. I need to move and update my diner blog and my photography blog.

Re: ANyone use Posterous? Apparently it's shutting down
I think that Tumblr is the nearest equivalent. I believe you can even post to Tumblr via email, which was one of Posterous' selling points. I liked Posterous' relatively clean native look and you can achieve that by using one of Tumblr's free themes, like Minimalist. Tumblr's pretty flexible. I have two Tumblr blogs, one of which is morphing into my portfolio, and is not really a blog at all. I've been lightly tweaking the Minimalist theme to get what I need. Alternatively, basic blogs at wordpress.com are free, and many folks recommend them. There's supposed to be a migration tool for Posterous to Wordpress that would be worth checking into. Posterous went sideways after Twitter bought it and I stopped attempting to use it. I'm unsurprised at this shutdown announcement.

It's too bad, because I liked posterous and would have gone on using it. I liked the simple interface and that I could feed to Twitter/FB automatically. At any rate, when they never answered me, I dumped all of it onto a wordpress.com space. I ran Driving the Flies on WP for all that time and WP is comfortable for me. Plus, when I get around to posting something there, I can also have it feed to Twitter/FB. Interesting that they have sent out an announcement, since it was pretty much dead already. Hmmm.

Re: In Photographic news Apparently reality wasn't good enough for CBS
It's all fish paper. Creative control of a staged production. What are the fireworks? A simulation of a battle we happened to win. 150 years ago, or maybe 199 years ago, or 235 years ago. It's no worse than what the TV crews do before a ball game, or football game. They send a color crew out to capture the feel, the essence of the area, a few monuments, people playing in a park. traffic on the roads. Usually on a Thursday, while they had the rest of the crew setting up for the game.

That's not what fireworks are actually.

I don't bother watching fireworks myself anymore 'cause really: see one, seen 'em all. Bang! Ooh! Phizz-crackle! Aahh!

electronic level (and an apparently-undocumented feature) in K7
I noticed today that if I pushed info twice (or is it three times?) while in shooting mode, the entire rear display switches to an electronic level, complete with a sort of artificial horizon display. Neato. Unfortunately, this made it VERY easy for me to set the camera on top of a spirit level and visually confirm that my K7's level is actually off by about half a bubble. :-( It doesn't look like it can be calibrated/adjusted, so now I get to turn OFF the level display, or train my brain to always show the display a half-bubble off level when I want the camera to actually be level.

Re: electronic level (and an apparently-undocumented feature) in K7
Yep, that's v1.10 firmware ;) 2010/7/31 Charles Robinson charl...@visi.com: I noticed today that if I pushed info twice (or is it three times?) while in shooting mode, the entire rear display switches to an electronic level, complete with a sort of artificial horizon display. Neato. Unfortunately, this made it VERY easy for me to set the camera on top of a spirit level and visually confirm that my K7's level is actually off by about half a bubble. :-( It doesn't look like it can be calibrated/adjusted, so now I get to turn OFF the level display, or train my brain to always show the display a half-bubble off level when I want the camera to actually be level.

I thought my K7 level was terrible based on a carpenters level. When I checked it with a better level it looked better as well. A better test is to see if it's level is to test it against the horizon of a large body of water, which is guaranteed to be level.

I take back my last comment, as Pentax now has a rental place in a less
expensive neighborhood.

Yes, Sire William, right after I read the title of this thread, I thought of your vassal, err, pusher... ;-).

Men are generally very simple creatures when it comes to certain things. Mind you, so are women. It's just different things, and different types of trite. Mr. Darcy I'd be leery of any man who says he understands women. He's liable to lie to you about important things as well. I don't claim to understand women but I do think that men overcomplicate them, and women tend to go along with it. Lying is a good example. Men lie to women all the time, and think that women believe them. They don't, but they let men continue with their false belief. For any value of n that men possess in a nth order attribution of false belief, women have n+1. Put more simply, so the little ladies can understand it, women are always one step ahead of men. That's why Elizabeth Bennet always wins, however often you read the damn book, or watch the damn film.
