Like the texture and paint job. What’s the process?

I love that you made it out of cardboard. That’s a reasonable material for the job, easy to work with and the whole thing has a great re-use/recycle vibe to it.

That’s widely reported, but not true. Maybe the first Hollywood movie to be released with full color correction.

The first movie that went thorough a complete digital processing step was the Swedish movie “Zingo” in the mid 90s. There is another one that got partially processed, but the name eludes me just now.

Anyway, Jason X was also color graded before O Brother Where Art Thou, but eventually did not get released for a couple of years.

It’s probably correct that an obscure Swedish comedy didn’t have any influence on modern editing techniques though, so I only consider those references valid for the question of who really did it first.

An OM-3 or a Lumix GM5 are both absolutely portable, even more so than typical mirrorless bodies. Unfortunately, the OM-3 is a flagship camera, and the GM5 has turned into a collector’s item, so both are expensive.

Not really, no. Signal was released more or less exactly a year later than WhatsApp (May 2010 vs May 2009), which, if you look at the 17 years since then, doesn’t really matter that much.

However, broad adoption rates in messaging apps are typically achieved by e. g. funny emoji sets vs. encryption, and the early versions of Signal were pretty barebone.

That’s alright, if it’s new to you, you simply didn’t want to damage it. If they sit around for a while, they magically tend to accumulate the tiniest amount of gunk, which makes them hard to unscrew - or maybe someone put tue gronk on it, which, was already mentioned, you really shouldn’t do.

Picture shows the iPhone Duo, a new iPhone with a foldable screen, enabling both the person holding the phone and an implied observer just barely visible on the right of the frame to view the screen, thereby making the depicted scene a 3 person interaction.

Now, there are other interactions involving three persons, some of them living under the umbrella term cuckold, hence making the device’s foldable screen the cuck screen.

It is actually not. It damages the environment, deprives people of drinking water, is addictive and makes people dumber as they begin to rely on it.

1. You could start by typing cd and use tab completion to explore your target folder(s). This would require at least a rudimentary knowledge of what you’re looking for so you can prefix your search

2. If you really want to explore the contents and pick your target without knowing anything in advance, cd "$(find . -type d | fzf)" would give you a smart browser. You can of course replace ‘.’ with any base directory you like. Requires fzf.

3. In general, zoxide can help with navigation.

4. If you want to stay a purist, I’d go for simply recalling your last ls command from the history and replacing it with cd. An example has been given in the thread already.

But did you like it eventually?

I’ll come forward and admit I fucking love mushrooms, and some facts in this book blew my mind. It’s one of my favorite, non-fiction books.

I opened the link and immediately suspected it must be the son of Rupert Sheldrake, brother to Merlin Sheldrake, the mycologist. It was.

Merlin’s book is rather amazing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entangled_Life

Overall, interesting family.

Ah, I instantly recognized the voice of Karin Dreijer. Karin’s solo album as Fever Ray is pretty good.

How would random parts in a phone be “missing” in the first place?

Just stopping by to confirm there’s a lot of good stuff in this post.

In general, if you want to decrease CPU and memory usage, the first and foremost thing you should do is decrease parallelism via the kopia settings (i. e. either as a global policy for scheduled backups, or directly as parameter when creating a snapshot). No idea about kopia-ui, but the settings are probably exposed there? Not a ui user.

You can also decrease resource usage by tweaking compression settings, or disabling compression completely.

Once that is done, you can experiment with hard limits. I’m not sure how resilient kopia is in the presence of those, or how performance might suffer - all I can say is I backed up 2TB of data just 3 or 4 days ago using reasonable settings, and it did not tax the host overly much.

No, but the actual study does. Birth outcome is defined as:

• weight at birth
• gestational age (i. e. how long the pregnancy lasted)
• if the birth weight was below 2500g
• if it was a preterm birth, i. e. the gestational age was less than 37 weeks

The study focuses on first - born children and corrects for multiplicity (e. g. twins), which are a lot more common under medically assisted reproduction.

The highly abbreviated conclusion is that under these circumstances, the previously observed poorer birth outcomes largely disappear.

Naturally, this result says nothing about the later developments of the affected children. Nothing positive, nothing negative. Nothing.

Beauty. I have one sitting at my front door, and luckily, the other inhabitants have accepted her (and their fate).

I was wondering why the smaller testicle would hang lower, and indeed:

To investigate further, Dr. McManus studied 187 Greek statues and their Roman replicas. The result? The same pattern repeated across sculptures: a higher right testicle, but a larger left one.

However, looking at the paper itself reveals:

What’s the turquoise / brown textured stuff? Some kind of adhesive foil, e. g. faux leather?

Also, I looked at your post history and it’s you with the train compartment. Great job!
