In 120 for color, I use Gold (because it's like $7.50 a roll) and it scans beautifully. In 35mm for color, I use Fuji 400 (because in the three packs it's inexplicably like $8 a roll, vastly cheaper than basically any other good color film) and the speed is super helpful in the long rainy winter

In the wake of all the news coming out of the US and the amount of shouting at the TV I've done, I thought everyone else might benefit from one of my favourite photos from 2017 to break up the doom scrolling.

I cannot fix the big things, so here's a small thing.

Whenever I go over there to check a source, I'm always incredibly disappointed to see how many outlets and people I recognize still post there because they can't let go of their followers.
This is how twitter users sound when complaining about Bluesky

Happy Jan. 6th, everyone. Too bad the people who are supposed to uphold the law didn’t take their responsibilities seriously.

Some good news for a change.
‼️A German hacker known as "Martha Root" dressed as a pink Power Ranger and deleted a white supremacist dating website live onstage

This happened during the recent CCC conference.

Wonder how many hours it’ll take European leaders to agree a mildly-worded statement of light rebuke.

I cannot emphasize enough that the attempts to anthropomorphize an algorithm is a fundamental act of journalistic malpractice and an intentional act to shield the people responsible for this. It's fucking shameful.

Es geht niemals um Meinungsfreiheit. Es geht immer um Widerspruchsfreiheit - und die Bestrafung aller, die anderer Meinung sind. Faschismus lebt von Konformität. Pluralismus ist der Feind.
Die rechtsextreme AfD beklagt sich beim US-Regime, dass in Deutschland die Meinungsfreiheit angeblich so eingeschränkt werde, aber leitet dann ein Ordnungsverfahren gegen eines ihrer eigenen Mitglieder ein, nur weil der es wagte, dem Faschisten Höcke zu widersprechen! Kannst du dir nicht ausdenken.

At a certain point you should know if you want to hire someone. Its your job to figure that out and idk why strangers looking for work need to be punished for someone not being good at their job.

America, you have spoken loud and clear: You do not like AI. But what if AI is the way to restart the world’s idea machine?
We’re running out of good ideas. AI might be how we find new ones.
What if the best use of AI is restarting the world’s idea machine?

This year MinnMax is using our reaction stream for The Game Awards to raise money for the Somali Museum of Minnesota.

People aren't "garbage".

Please donate/share to help the museum's mission of connecting Minneapolis with the beauty of Somali art, dance, and history. www.givemn.org/story/12p1xe

Absolutely abhorrent behavior from Valve. Not surprising given their libertarian stance, but shameful and disappointing nonetheless.
Valve has now rejected my complaint, confirming that "I don't like muslims" is a valid reason to leave a negative review on a game on Steam

This is where we're at now.

While I'm happy with my Fractal Design Ridge SFF case for my living room PC, I can't help but love the XiKii Industry cases. They’re expensive and often tailor-made for specific hardware, sometimes to an impractical degree, but I feel like they have a certain ’90s industrial vibe and I love it.

I can’t get over how Barbie succeeded because it offered tangible ways for women and girls to celebrate each other (and dress up and go to the movies together) but studios thought it worked because it’s about toys so now they’re making like Bananagrams the movie

People who record others without their consent should be ostracized. And saying, “but it’s legal!” means nothing. Just because something is legal doesn’t mean it’s ethical
It’s an invasion of privacy.
