I'm listening to @hacks4pancakes talk about resumes, helping people looking for a job: https://youtube.com/live/0z95pwVOiTM?feature=share

jerry,

@hacks4pancakes that was a great discussion. I think you helped a lot of people today.

This is composite of 100 stacked macro pics. Helicon Focus makes the process FAR easier than with Photoshop.

Here is a high res version: https://jerrybell.smugmug.com/Orchids/i-CzvQ9S2/A

jerry,

@xabean It is is about 1-2mm

jerry,

@xabean here it is.

jerry,

@xabean that was f16, with a 1/40 shutter speed

jerry,

@vathpela @xabean ah, you know I forgot to say that my camera does all the work - I just tell it where to start, how much to adjust the focus between shots, and how many shots to take and then it runs it as a batch

jerry,

@grendel84 stacked. Each picture has a very narrow in focus depth. Helicon takes the in focus section from each picture in a stack and blends them together

jerry,

@grendel84 when shooting macro to get the fine detail (which Mastodon sadly largely compresses out), even very tiny apertures have a shallow dof. Backing up and using a small aperture will put the whole flower in focus, but it loses a lot of detail

ok, need some feedback: It appear that pixelfed is moving in the direction of mariadb, away from postgres, and the current issues appear to stem from my us of postgres. I've been contemplating a move to the domain infosec.pics, which would essentially be starting over. There is no (as far as I know) working way to migrate pixelfed accounts from one server to a different server. I don't like the idea, but I also don't like the idea of a persistently partially broken instance, either.

We have 323 total accounts and 26 active accounts, so while the blast radius may be small, it's a complete PITA for those 26 people.

What say you?

jerry,

@thisismissem for sure. There are some discussions in the pixelfed GitHub about the functionality that does exist apparently not working

jerry,

@Brentguernsey It's an entirely separate service - it is similar to Instagram in that it lets you share pictures and whatnot. The changes I mention won't have any affect on infosec.exchange.

Federation on pixel.infosec.exchange is a only partically working. I am not sure if it's a recently intriduced bug, or if I've done something wrong, or if it's relate to my use of containers, but I'm working on it, but no ETA to fix yet.

jerry,

@thisismissem thank - looks like it's my choice of database

I can’t believe it’s time for the Puppy Bowl and the Great American Rescue bowl already! Hopefully y’all are ready for this

@jerry since the last update, landscape mode always behaves like a desktop (4 columns side by side) even on my tiny iPhone SE

I tried the setting to control that in layout options but no luck

Sometimes I prefer just to read wider lengths of text (instead of narrow), especially on longer posts. As in, I’d love for one post/thread to fill the screen in landscape mode.

Would you happen to know if this has been reported yet?

(I’m using iOS Safari with a Home Screen shortcut)

jerry,

@GuillaumeRossolini not that I am aware of. For now, if you turn off advanced mode, it does (I think) what you want, but that is a hassle

jerry,

@GuillaumeRossolini the hassle for me is setting it back to advanced mode

At the big age of 52, I am realizing that I will always be a bad photographer not because of my equipment or skill, but because I can't get my eyes to work correctly. Oh well. It would be nice if The Lady Catherine had a portraiteur worthy of her, but the world will have to miss out on 5-15% of her beauty.

jerry,

@spiegelmama the 7 inch monitor I have on top of my camera is not there by accident

I took pixel.infosec.exchange offline to fix the new critical cve in pixelfed. Since pixelfed doesn't work well with docker, I am also moving to a vanilla/bare metal install, so it'll take a while to complete. My apologies.

jerry,

ok. pixel is back up, but I hacked together another containered version with the update because redis not installing correctly on ubuntu and I need to take a break before I launch that server into the sun

jerry,

@admin I make extensive use of Ubuntu’s livepatch and extended support repos. I’ll have to see if Debian offers anything like that

jerry, to random

TFW I find out my (much) younger brother is about to be a grandfather

jerry,

@jeannie my brother is just a bit older than that. It’s all good. There’s just no way I’m that old.

People can be so kind to moderators when they dislike a moderation decision.

Also, other may want to be wary of this person.

jerry,
