My daughter just got a quote for $1,650 for 1 photographer and no assistants, plus $300 for travel.

The contract doesn't specify any deliverables and leaves it up to the photographers discretion.

Is this a reasonable price? This is for a moderate cost-of-living area.

No deliverables is throwing me for a loop. Is that standard these days?

My wife noticed that the PDF to DevonThink from the Edge browser stopped working. It works in Safari, just not Edge. I am now having the same issue?

Any recommendations on how to fix?

Anyone know of any active photographers that do headshots?

I've reached out to a couple in the area and no one has responded. I'm not sure if they aren't in business anymore, busy, or just bad at sales.

We have an ecobee with a gas furnace. The heat setting will be 70 degrees and the thermostat will say it is 68, but the furnace will not be on. We’ve confirmed with a thermal gun that the room is 68 something.

Any ideas why the thermostat isn’t turning on the furnace?

I have a Carrera with the cool blue alligator strap.

How careful do I need to be with this? I know all the obvious things like don't swim or shower with it, but is it going to be damaged being caught in a rainstorm or getting water splashed on it when you wash your hands?

Tag seems to indicate that if it gets near moisture it will disintegrate /s?

Can I get some realistic guidance on this beautiful band?

My wife and I both take photos for events. Originally it was just me and everything was simple.

With two of us, I need to move everything to central storage and have photo management software that can use a NAS. Lightroom is out because they have NAS functionality locked down.

I have looked at CaptureOne but the wife isn't convinced. She thinks we need a digital asset management system.

Do you gals/guys have some recommendations on what I should be looking at for management and editing solutions?

Is there a good diy system available that is better than Lutron’s consumer gear?

Lights, audio, shades, etc. ?

All I could find was the things like control4 that require a dealer and constant maintenance from them.

I have been through a number of biologics. Cosyntex is the last one of a string of them. After 2-3 years they seem to stop working.

Suggestions for other solutions? Do you I need to see a different type of doctor than a dermatologist?

Has anyone speculated on what changes we can expect with Trump and crew in office?

What are recommendations for close to medium range self-defense for AR15?

I have some longer-range scopes but they have slow target acquisition.

Trijicon ACOG is what the gun store is recommending.

Thoughts?

I set hyperbackup to send to Wasabi, S3, and I noticed a lot of 400~ MB files are only 4k~ on the S3 system. I gave it a few days to back everything up.

Hyperbackup says everything is great. I restore a few files and they really are only 4k~ instead of 300-400MB.

Has anyone seen this?

We just got tasked with creating some corporate videos. I and some members of my team have done this in past lives, long ago.

In the past I used FinalCut and most of my team has used Premier.

What recommendations would you make for a fresh set of projects?

I just got a new 1301 m2. I have a 1301 version 1 that I wanted to upgrade.

The issue I am having is the fore-end stippling is insane and painful on the hands unless you are wearing gloves.

Are there other good fore-ends that don't weigh a ton? If not, how advisable is it to tape it up and take it down a bit with some 1300 grit sandpaper.

Not sure what to do.

As I am putting in personal health information in here, I am not putting in the direct relationship.

Male relative had a diabetic version of a stroke a few weeks ago. Cognitive impairment, limb spams, you name it.

I can't get them to take their insulin consistently or even remember whether they have taken it. For me I would keep up with this with various apps. They can't see their phone well enough to do that.

The doctor at the hospital says they don't meet the definition of incompetent although they are impaired.

I am at a loss as to know what to do in this scenario. Their primary care they have been going to for 20+ years. They haven't done a good job of helping them or there has just

Does the HDMI not work for output? I, perhaps wrongly, assumed that the Node’s HDMI port was functional and put out sound and perhaps a picture of what it was playing.

There seems to be no instruction manual other than the quick start.
