Night photography on iso200 film maybe not such a good idea. Maybe if I turned the shutter even slower(the LCD showing shutter speed on my camera has no backlight so I have not clue what it picked) or opened up the aperture more(I think I was at 5.6) still something close to what I wanted.

When I was younger I would not close a "parent" process until a "child" process was done. More specifically if I downloaded a file from the net then ran said file from within the browser I would not close the browser until that downloaded file was done doing its thing...

My Podcasts listening https://blog.marcg.pizza/marcg/my-podcasts-listening

I actually kinda like crypto.

Cryptography, that is.

Hey all, I have a sincere request. Please boost if you can.

I am helping some wonderful people in Merauke in West Papua learn more about their colonial past. I have always supported the Papuan people in their struggle for self-knowledge and freedom.

Could anyone who speaks Dutch please help me translate this text here into English?

I am going to then help translate this text with them into Indonesian. If someone knows how to translate Dutch into Indonesian, that would be just perfect!!

Again, please boost.

I want to learn more about WW2. Where should I start?

Was going to listen to this podcast

But that's a long time commitment to listen to all episodes.

Found some old DVDs containing rare footage of a friend of mines band circa mid 2000's. If you are up for a good metal show you can find them here.

So a while ago I found this Polaroid Sun600 camera at a thrift store for $10. Had to get it. Finally got some film for it and all o gotta say my fellow humans is that there is something magical about watching a picture developed in front of your eyes.

For a 40 year old camera/tech it takes pretty decent shots. Has its own magic feeling.

Best I can tell this model was manufactured in 1981...I just don't know for how long so not sure exactly how old this specific one I have is. But chances are 30+years old for sure.

Just in time for Bandcamp Friday, November's Monthly Music Book Club album is "Faithless Planet" by Yumi Sakata. Availabe at https://yumisakata.bandcamp.com/album/faithless-planet for the cost of $(name your price)

It's available on Spotify and presumably other streaming services.

Let's have a listen and get together in the XMPP room (xmpp:musicbookclub@rooms.chinwag.im?join) the weekend of 27/28 November.

I remember the first 8bit trip on YouTube, it was the first video that I saw that was full HD, 1080p - it was amazing

But after 12 years, actually two month ago - Rymdreglage released 8Bit Trip 2!!!!

It was worth the weight ;)))))))

I'm not sure the audio captured properly. It sounded OK where it was recorded but now on my PC not so much...maybe it's just my PC somehow.
