Tested my 4x5 reducing back for the #GameBoyCamera last night. Still can't shoot in the daytime, until I get a print done in black. However, it's wild that this is from a toy #camera from 1998.
@br00t4c They're just so proud of the good work they're doing that they don't want the media to steal their thunder by revealing all the surprises early, right?
Or are they actively concealing war crimes?
Seems like it's probably one or the other of those things.
Periodic Execution of Apple Shortcuts with launchd https://en.ileif.de/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/DALL·E-2024-05-16-18.08.33-Transform-the-black-and-white-line-art-illustration-of-a-modern-desk-setup-into-a-1990s-GeoCities-style-image.-The-scene-should-feature-vibrant-nosta-150x150.webp
This article demonstrates how to use the system service ‘launchd‘ on a Mac to run Apple Shortcuts regularly and automatically.
Made a mount for it that hangs back and aside, so it can double as handle, the camera can stand up straight on it and the access door for the USB connector of the camera isn't blocked.
It took ages to figure out a position which enabled all of the above, but then that's why you make your own kit.
Works pretty well and happy with the result. Satisfying amount of salvaged parts, too.
Let's talk briefly about what a tire-fire #Wyze is and why you shouldn't buy from them.
I attempted to order COVID tests from them near the start of the pandemic. They sold more than they had, I never received the tests I ordered, and cancelling the order was a nightmare.
But then they started spamming me.
In 2022 I unsubscribed from their #spam.

In February 2024 I asked them to delete my #Wyze account (created only to order the COVID tests).
They just spammed me again.
When I click the unsub link, the page it takes me to claims I'm already unsubscribed.
In addition to all this you're probably aware they've had numerous security and privacy issues with their products.
You really, really shouldn't patronize this company. #spam#privacy#security
Up Close With the Completed 3.2-Gigapixel #LSST#Camera
Engineers at the #SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory have completed work on the Legacy Survey of #Space and Time camera. The device is the world's largest digital camera and will be the centerpiece of a 10-year mission to map the night sky from the Vera C. Rubin #Observatory in #Chile.
Alors que la préfecture de police de Paris teste ce dimanche, pour la première fois, la vidéosurveillance algorithmique lors de la rencontre Paris Saint-Germain - Olympique lyonnais, certains fans de football s’inquiètent de l’impact potentiel de cette technologie sur leurs libertés.
Any #camera project or product page that uses stock #photography to represent camera output should be avoided like the plague IMO. Good on PetaPixel for the sleuthing here. 👏🏻
