Hi, I'm James. Eternal dilettante and purveyor of nonsense, much of it about #Python or #physics. I work for a computer vision company whose customers actually care about results, so the current """AI""" craze is slowly melting my brain. I boost more than I post. TANSTAAFL
Dev and scan for 7 rolls of film is US$150 where I live.
With my Bellini chemicals, and scanning setup at Photolaundry where I get a Fuji frontier scanner by the hour, it costs $4-5 per roll (excluding my time, but I actually do this to destress)
Cookie was banned from the bed because she snores so loudly it sounds like a trumpet and flugelhorn section in your ears (even with custom earplugs on). Then she was allowed on again coz I was sad that she was sick. Now she’s better and I guess I’m never getting her off the bed again (her loud snores are the rhythm of my dreams ahahaha)
@bitprophet well in the movie they set the runaway train in Pennsylvania for… some reason? I don't know why that happened, maybe because it raises the stakes to imply proximity to the Northeast Corridor or something
I have this open source thing I wrote some years ago, mostly for learning, but also because my employer at the time had a need I could fill if I could manage to build it.
Today, years later, I have not given much thought to it, but suddenly I find people opening PRs to contribute to it. I don't know how to politely say, "hey - I don't have the context to properly review any of this." It's a bunch of unsafe rust too, being mostly FFI.
@onelson kinda funny that they wrote themselves into a corner hard enough that they just didn't try to address why what they did wasn't a huge break in the rules of space combat established for the series. just… move along.
@onelson oh yea the perils of hyperspace gone wrong in general are definitely established. It's cool that 8 decided to bring that to space combat, but it does feel like it leaves a hanging "uhhh well why not always do this"
Probably they figured that fans would (do) eagerly debate the reasons if they just never bothered to address it
