Abandoned farm

Running across various different places on rides is one of my favorite things. With abandoned and run down locations having a special place in my heart.

While out on my last ride, I ran across this abandoned massive live stock farm. Most of it has been overgrown with various plants and weeds.

The place is huge, with a large part still explorable. Photo above seems to be were the animals were kept, with a copy paste building right next to it that is still full of hay.

Just got myself a D7200

I've gifted my D7100, alongside a 35mm DX lens to my girlfriend.

For a few weeks I was debating on going FF, with something like a D750 or maybe even a D810, but finally decided against it.

Found a fantastic deal on a D7200 in pretty much mint condition, as the guy using it really took good care of camera. Even got a new original Nikon battery in the whole package.

The first lens that I got for it is another 35mm DX, as I loved using that lens on the D7100. It's probably one of the best DX lenses you can get (at least from all the lenses I've used).

How’s everyone enjoying Baldur’s Gate 3 so far?

I’m using medium settings with a few (clouds, fog) low ones. FSR is off for now, I did test it briefly on Ultra Quality and did not really notice any blurrong )though it was a brief test) The FPS I’m getting is mostly above 30 but varies a lot inbetween 25-40 (40 is my refresh rate cap).

The controls are easy to get used to and cover all the functions well. Only 4 hours into the game but really enjoying it so far.

How’s everyone finding the performance to be like after the inital few hours?

Squeezed a ride in after a few weeks of no riding at all

Exploring on the bike is one of my favourite feelings. Seeing what’s behind a bend, up that hill, beyond that forest… it’s a never ending adventure.

Anyway, rode a path I’ve ridden dozen of times and decided to finally follow a really nasty (as in overgrown) path I’ve never been down before. Literally down, as it as steep decent over loose gravel.

Man was it worth it. The path follows one of the local rivers and is actually a very decent and clean place to ride.

Can’t wait to explore even further.

Squeezed a ride in yesterday after a few weeks of horrible weather / irl getting in the way

What is everyone getting this Steam sale?

I was looking at getting some roguelikes / lites (already have ToME, CoQ), unfortunately Cataclysm DDA is not on sale.

Krone Hotel at 90% off looks like a decent choice too. Then there’s Jupiter Hell, which I recently stumbled upon and looks great too.

I’d also like to get some of the FF games, though I’ve played VI, VII, IX and a bit of XII, it would be nice to revisit some of the older ones I haven’t played almost since the PSX era.

WoW Patch 10.1.5 Fractures in Time Launches July 11

The infinite dungeon will be interesting to see in action, from what I've read there's a chance to get a mount from a past expansion. Though it seems so far only mounts that are still available in game.

As someone who plays a lock, I'm thorn on the pet customization changes. On one hand these are long overdue, on the other hand we are losing some of that customization we already had with the excuse being that they want the silhouettes of pets to be easily recognizable. Apparently hunters having a massive amount of different pets is ok, but locks 4 pets + a couple of glyphs to change their appearance is too much for both lock players and players playing against locks in PvP.
