What did I JUST say? 💀

As for me, I prefer sweet red wines. I know the correct term is probably not “sweet”, but I’m referring to those Hungarian red wines that are literally sweet. The Romanian La Revedere comes close too.

Thanks for all your input. I don’t have the emotional capacity to react to all of it at the moment, but I can say that I disagree on the vinyl FLACs. It depends on the very track/song itself, if you ask me. Sometimes, but not always, on the genre too. Those pieces that I want to enjoy clinically pure, I listen to in bit perfect mode through Tidal on USB Audio Player for Android with my Sennheiser IE900s. Such would be Diana Panton’s album If The Moon Turns Green. If I want to enjoy the entirety and general feel of the soundscape rather than the individual instruments, ambient sounds, overtones and frankly speaking noises, I listen to it on vinyl or audio cassette. Such would be Cyndi Lauper, Blondie, Madonna and the lesser known Patty Smith.

Red? White? Dry? Sweet? So help me God if you say Rosé.

Mom sent me this yesterday. Thought it was fake news. Now it’s fucking official.

Wooow. Thanks! That makes so much sense! My portable player is some cheapo from China: My deck does have a treble adjustment knob though. I’ll give that a try later. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge! 😊

May I fork your repo? If yes, then:

# fork of @maeve@kbin.earth 's groundbreaking code. Give them a like!
# / is equal to KNOWNUNIVERSE
find / -iname "ultrarich" -and -iname "*corporation" -exec rm {} \;

If somebody could tilt the book 90° for me, that would help a lot.

Thanks for your kind words and encouragement! 🥰 If you’re interested, here is a post about it.

To be fair, the most crucial pieces are unfortunately the hardest to get by here in Europe: the analog to digital converter, which in my case uses a cheap Chinese chip. It has a quantizing resolution of 8-bits, so at least it’s able to do 256 kinds of “interpretation” (color info included, though…). There are professional ones out there which have either all been bought up and are being hoarded, are crazy expensive ($200+) and are not being made any more: some Sony or Black Box devices.

All this, I an open and transparent about with my colleagues. I tell them what to expect, give them a sample, and then it’s on them do decide whether to go through with it or not.

Sorry for the rambling. Thanks again! 🩷

Venting = off my chest, ever so little

This means a lot! 🩷 I’d like to put

Don’t take other people’s faults as a reason to have less heart in what you enjoy doing.

on my profile. May I put your username/handle next to it, or would you rather that I didn’t? 😊

All good stories deserve embellishment. 😎

People write the check that pays for their own ass kicking in advance. Killer take on “dug their own grave” or whatever. Thanks!

Sweet. This reminds me of that movie that “follows” a man sitting in a zoom call while the world is under attack or something.

That is some sic (awesome) advice! Thanks so much! 🥰 I do have a 1200 dpi Canon scanner. Would that do it? 🤔

Man, if I didn’t have to work two feet from her, I’d literally cite your comment in her FACE 🤣❤️

Sic! Thanks!

I love how this became an actual artistic niche, instead of simply being a means to cut costs.

It’s never too late 😊

Fantastic episode 🩷

No optics, just extensions.

You’re a living library of optics and photography. 🤣 I did actually wing it today, just using the same values regardless of having put on the tubes. The image was a bit more shaky handheld, but it did alright. The magnification wreaked havoc on the depth of field though. We were talking millimeters even at the smallest physical aperture. The leaf above was shot at f11. 😱

Anyway, thanks!
