enrico also posted that he didn't have an air conditioning unit.  Is this a french thing?

I don't have one in my home office, and these past weeks I've been working with fans only and today was so hot that had to work with no shirt on..

 

Yes, AC is not all over houses in France. I think it's the same thing in Europe in general.

France is a temperate country, so really no need of AC.

But here comes global warming !

France is not temperate anymore.

And the more we are going to install AC in our homes in Europe, the more the heat will increase outside.

It's a never ending nightmare.

And it's sad to know that there is a perfect

I am going to make a youtube channel.  Getting a better microphone, 4K Webcam (logitech brio), audio editing/video editing software is a first step. I also collected some youtube strategy courses.

I'm still with the resistance (I have a Samsung), but I used to be with the empire a couple of years ago

I've been interested in dynamic microphones because they don't pick up mouse clicks or other desk movement.  My Samsung Q9U malfunctioned and actually needs to be replaced or refurbished by the manufacturer.  It was still brand new. 

I bought and returned a Samson Q2U microphone as a replacement.  Didn't like it at all. The Q2U is too weak of a microphone.

Replaced with a tried and true Blue Yeti pro and am mostly satisfied.  It has superior performance but unfortunately does pick up mouse clicks.

Won't buy Samson products ever again.

I couldn't resist and bought the Yennefer statue

How much do these statues cost?

They retail for $50-70 each.  

On amazon they are about $60-40 each.  

Shani cost about $40, Geralt and Yennefer are $50 each.

I am getting both statues in the mail tomorrow.

The yennefer outfit 2 is my favorite outfit of hers.  like it better than the default one.

The Witcher 3 Yennefer Romance - YouTube

@Enrico_sw  this is the Triss statue.  It's not bad but like the Ciri statue I feel like the face sculp doesn't look like her:

The original outfit is also another one but it's out of production and expensive.  There are also ultraexpensive ones out there by Prime studio.  It's great but cost around $1200 and is big: 

Received the Yennefer statue this morning.  It is a very beautiful and detailed statue.  The face doesn't look enough like Yennefer but it is still good.  

The Geralt statue is excellent in its details as well.  

But there is one flaw.  When I display the two statues together, they don't fit 100%.  Geralt is a tall man, significantly taller than Yennefer and with a larger head.

The two statues themselves are approximately the same height, 9 1/2 inches.  So we have a Geralt and Yennefer that are the same height.  Also, Geralt's head is only faintly larger than Yennefers.  

It looks like other Geralt statues have a larger head than this one (series 1).  However I didn't want an action pose, but a relaxed one and only this one fits the setting.
