Focal length and aperture both affect how much focus matters.
Also with most regular cameras, from what I've heard they actually have their max focus slightly past infinity to accound for thermal issues so the general advice for doing astrophotography is to focus on the subject, not just whacking it to infinity.

Those spy satellites are focused at the distance of earth. Hubble is focused at infinity or near-infinity

Gotta get that "y'all all" or "all y'all" going if that's what they're going for.

And get more surface area to the air than you could with straight air cooling.
And control the temperature more acurately if desired through a thermostat.

My grandpa has a Vanagon but it's in kinda rough shape.
Body is pretty good but the interior is pretty much gone and it has electrical grimlins so it either starts and drives perfectly or just screams at you doesn't even attempt to start.
Super cool vehicle though.

In addition to that. It's probably mocking these places where it asks if you want to leave a tip when you didn't see a single employee your entire visit. Or counter service/fast food etc.
- Comment on Do I need a license to kill a squirrel? 11 months ago:
You just gotta add a sign that says "Warning: trapping wild animals without a license is illegal. This trap is for feral cats only. Any wild animals found in this trap will be shot on sight."

I was going to say the same thing.
The first two parked vehicles look like the Pessima and the LeGran
- Comment on When Horses replace electric is the circle complete? 11 months ago:
There's a few reasons for that. One is obviously the having to get off the horse to deal with it but also dog poop smells way worse and doesn't degrade the same as horses does. It really doesn't take that long for horse poop to turn to pretty much dirt.
