No, I sent this off to TheDarkroom, in LA/Socal. But they were so underexposed that their scanner didn't handle them well, so I rescanned them at home.

 

Argus C3, 50mm, Ektachrome, but way under exposed. I still think it came out cool. Looks like a car picture to me, but it's better for the environment and the city ๐Ÿ™‚ Scanned on an Epson V600 using xsane and gimp.

That's how it used to be. You asked questions to people who were believed to be wise, and then their answer was what the truth was. And most of the things we "knew" were just wrong.

Not that it's less complicated now...

Love the creativity here. This is the kind of stuff I hope to see more of on lemmy

If you're looking for anti-neuclear skeptics and fear mongering, I don't think this is any more the place than reddit was. I hope rather than seeking out those echo chambers you look into this a bit more. I don't have any good stuff to link you too off the top of my head, but maybe someone else in the comments will

This is the one I had seen before

I was a fan of the version with the tricolor, but I think this interpretation actually makes me okay with the one they adopted

SFO was my first thought too. It's usually not quite this well timed in my experience; this is still a cool shot to catch.

I've actually never played any Star Trek games before - I think the closest I've gotten is Stellaris, which definitely made me think of star trek. I don't know if that disqualifies me, but I might pick this game up anyways, sounds like a good time right now.

This concept actually makes me want to have AI take my job

My c++ is pretty rusty, but I hopped through the changelogs. I think this is the source for it here https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/file/tip/toolkit/components/antitracking/URLQueryStringStripper.cpp

X with serifs, but only on the right side

I agree with what other people have said about using the command line more and the gui less, that will make you have to learn about utils like find, grep, sed, and maybe awk.

Try learning vim (or emacs). Use some command like tools for stuff you'd do in the gui. Try some basic scripting for common tasks. Maybe write some short python/ruby scripts if you need them. I've found that writing code has given me a need for learning more about how the command line works, and other "power user" features.

 
 

Does anyone else have a bike that you look back more fondly on that it deserves? This was my first project bike. It was really beat up, and I made a lowball offer that the seller accepted. Oops, just bought a project!

Redid the fork seals, the whole braking system, chain and sprockets, tires... But there were still even more problems than I had time for (paint, rust, fuelling weirdness, rear shock issues). I always wish I still had it until I remember how much more work it needed.

 

Of course people still have to bike through this zone, it's just that for now they're on the street. I guess all the other roads in the area aren't enough for the businesses.

It was too nice out not to ride, I had no choice. Was worried about the chips, but fortunately I had a bungie net. Those things are great!

 

The Himatic G is actually pretty fun for a simple camera, and takes good photos too

On a work trip for 3 days, and brought 2 cameras and 2 rolls, 1 color 1 b&w. Wasn't going to load them till after going through airport security. Except my "to dev" backlog isn't very organized... Fortunately there's a local camera shop that sells film not far from my hotel.

 

He's the sweetest cat (and converted me to a cat lover). Someone actually gave him up, but now he has a great home.

 

Took the 101 up to enjoy the scenery. Was a great ride, longest I've done so far. I'm already itching to do another!
