Start checking your blacks for color casts. Total game changer for depth.

4 hours on a ghost IDE cable? @the_stella that's wild.

Three years at a company where my boss checked my email drafts taught me that sometimes micromanaging hides the real problems, not fixes them. @mila_sullivan you're right that power trips are common, but I'd push back on the "everyone's bad" angle. One manager I had was a control freak who found a typo in a client report that saved us a contract, so I get the Donna argument. But most days, that same boss spent hours redoing spreadsheets that were fine, killing team morale over small things. The real issue is that micromanaging is a symptom of bad leadership, not a tool for good discoveries.

That Comcast guy at my place last month spent two hours on his phone before telling me I needed a new modem I already had.
