Nice shot!
Can you tell me a bit more about it?
Obvious first question is what camera/lens you used for this? Then also what time of day (i.e. is it as dark as it looks or is this intentional underexposure to get the vibe) was this and which Fujifilm did you use? Standard 400 ISO perhaps or something more niche?
(Mostly coming from a place of my night shots on film can be a bit hit and miss, so always interested in how others go about it)
Can we just undo America?
On reflection it’s just been a lot of harm
Clown country
Well he does have brain damage
Literally a right wing talking point that was never based in fact (just like all of them)
I know the Atlantic is ultimately a capitalist ball gargling outlet that paints itself as progressive, but c’mon
Even taxing him 1% on his wealth, once, would dramatically change the shape of public finances in the US
If there was an American in charge that actually wanted to use public funds for their purpose, improving the country and the lives of everyone in it, it could genuinely change the country forever in a multitude of positive ways
Taxing one person, a single percent of their wealth, once.
That’s how much he has squeezed out of your economy. Him reaching down the back of his sofa once, would change one of the biggest economies in the world forever.
You need to take a lot more than 1% to reverse the growth (which is what this needs to do, they already have too much)
And there’s more than one of them.
Why every person in your country isn’t screaming for this is crazy to me, it’s your money they’re hoarding, your future they have stolen
Thanks for the knowledge, didn’t know that one
Like this is kinda death cult levels, now
HDHomerun is the commercial solution that is relatively painless assuming you have something that can run a client that supports it
Open source, you probably want to look at tvheadend and a USB DVB-T tuner (hauppauge still make decent ones I believe) attached as the next most straightforward option, it can take a little bit to get set up but it’s pretty seamless once it is. Same caveat about clients
Kinda
In a normal transaction without a phone you use a plastic card issued by MasterCard/Visa/Amex (or a local processor). The processing company charges a merchant a small percentage fee on that transaction to the business. In some places they might add that processing fee to the bill, but that’s illegal in my country nowadays.
When you add Google/Apple into the mix, they’re importantly not replacing anyone, they’re just adding themselves in to basically just replace the “plastic” part with “virtual” in what I said before. So the payment processor still takes the same fees they always have, it’s just a phone talking to the card reader rather than a chip in a card.
So how do they make money? I believe Apple just charges the bank a small percentage, which I imagine they reconcile out of the payment processor fees. Google, on the other hand, I think offers it to banks for free, because as is tradition, they’re more interested in the data.
A swift “well, don’t you think you’re worth more than that” can build many bridges
UK/EU has had contactless payments via our bank cards for about 2 decades now. America caught up eventually some years later
When phones got the ability to act as our bank cards, it made sense for them to use something compatible with the same technology that was already deployed
Funnily enough, America (and I guess also Korea, given the companies) dragging their heels on standard contactless is one of the main reasons why Samsung/LG briefly put out a couple of generations of phones that had a magnetic stripe mimicking payment feature in addition to standard NFC (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_secure_transmission)
I don’t think soup brain is capable of considering this
Most people seem to go for either codeberg or gitlab as alternatives
see people […] spent $25…$45…$30 on gas
I spend $7 ~ $13 […] three times a month
3 x 13 = $39
it’s not nearly as close as what I’ve seen other people spend.
?
Can we request the bullion is stamped with the face of Obama or something like that, just to really get an aneurysm brewing
I was originally gonna say Sigur Ros but that’s already been covered
My shout out goes to Niteworks then, who sadly did their farewell tour last year. One of my favourites:
And without fail, every accusation continues to be an admission
The hell are you on about?
Someone who basically just uses their screen to pull up a recipe to make dinner with is not going to have any problems. Similarly for someone who uses it to keep in contact with friends (directly, not via a social network).
Someone who only spends a half hour a day using their phone, but that usage is scrolling on twitter or some bullshit like that? They’re absolutely going to have problems. It only takes a few seconds to read a post and then a shitty idea might lodge itself in their head.
Focusing on just screen time rather than the content on it is expressly not focusing on the root cause, and we’re not going to fix anything if we focus on just the symptoms. It’s like trying to ban hammers because someone is smashing your windows with one. The hammer isn’t really the cause of the problem, and the person doing the smashing will continue a different way if they aren’t stopped.
Ah I misunderstood your initial comment!
Thanks for the detail! Do you get a lot of use out of the black mist filter? I’ve been considering grabbing one for a couple of my lenses
