You're right. In fact, in the place there are many more eroded stones with shapes that recall strange and ancient beings (or parts of them). Although the pareidolia will have a lot of the blame πŸ˜…

Yes, it is the same kind if stone and the same β€œsculptor”

I have used CircuitPython in some projects, especially with my children. Python was easier for them than C. For small projects (domestic sensor, remote control car,...) there is no difference in performance. For those use cases that are more demanding and squeeze the possibilities of the SoC to the maximum, obviously, it is not worth it. Taking this into account, I think it is an alternative for many DIY projects that are being done out there

You're right. It was taken a day before but it gave me an error when uploading the photo (it happens to me with some frequency in Lemmy lately) and it stayed in the pending queue

As always with these news it is still too early to draw conclusions: more analysis and tests are necessary.

I agree. It is more a curiosity thing than a real life project. But it helps to show the potential of this SoCs and it is a good practice for a lot of things.

 

I found this tutorial about how to use a raspberry pi to add a digital panel to old cars (canbus port needed)

There are free IoT cloud solutions to send and receive data and that work with MQTT protocol for this purpose.

It is a bad quality photo taken from a mobile. The circle that surrounds the moon is formed by the refraction of the moonlight when passing through ice crystals present in the atmosphere. At times surrounding the moon itself you can see a circular rainbow (they all are, but we see only half of the solar rainbow). This phenomenon is called a lunar halo.

Hi!

nice photo πŸ‘πŸ» I have just downloaded Siril, and I want to do something similar to this, but I have two Siril related questions because I think they are a lot of photos to stack and I am not sure my Macbook can do the job:

  • How long did it take you to process it?
  • Did you use a "normal" laptop or do you have a powerful graphic card?

Thanks in advance!

 

Tonight, if the clouds allow me, I wanted to take pictures with my Skywatcher Star Adventurer mini. As I'm going to set up a small telescope (a Celestron C90) I need a very good alignment to the Polar so that I don't have any traces left. Tips to make an alignment as accurate as possible? Thank you

My first photo with a telescope. It is not a incredible shoot but I am very proud of it.

I have developed a project in #python to follow #RSS feeds and send an email with daily news. It is more an excuse to practice python, git and design patterns than a real project, but feel free to use it if you find it useful. Suggestions, opinions and feedback are welcome.

I have just created a new community in Lemmy about Generative AI like GPT or Midjourney. The subjects are diverse: from news to development

 

Since the last update, half of the times I open the app I see All posts but in my preferences I have set Subscribed. The rest of the times it woks fine.

I want to thanks one more time to the developers who are making this great app πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ» I really love it!

 

I have just installed the last version and it comes with some errors:

  • I can't set NEW as default option for sort posts in config
  • I can't see communities wich I am subscripted
  • When I search the communities section is always empty
