Light rail at the station on a rainy Seattle day [Argus C3 | 50mm | Kodak Ektachrome]
  • 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 🙂 Scanned on an Epson V600 using xsane and gimp.

    Does Lemmy skew old enough for this one?
  • 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...

  • 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

  • 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.

    Star Trek Resurgence Giveaway
  • 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.

    Wanting to improve my Linux skills after 17 months of daily driving Linux
  • 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.

    The ASUS Eee PC and the netbook revolution
  • I still have my Eee 901 sitting around with my collection of old tech. It actually booted up a couple years ago when I last checked it! Used the crap out of it back in college for computer science classes, since all I really needed was a terminal.

    Why aren't they using drones and more automation?
  • In a similar vein, I've been rewatching TNG and find myself thinking that they really should have put a cctv camera in engineering. Could have saved them a lot of trouble.

    Sore Losers of Lemmy: What Helped You Start to Lose with Grace?
  • If the win is out of reach for me, I at least try and make them earn the rest of their victory. The more you make them have to actually work for it, the more they'll enjoy the win. I guess I kinda think of it like a D&D game where I'm the DM: now my job is to facilitate the other player(s) having fun.

    Either that or I'll ask questions and try to learn, so I can come back stronger next time.

  • 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.

    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!
