Door een aanrijding tussen een bezorgauto van Picnic en een racefiets in Lisse (Zuid-Holland) is een 40-jarige man uit die plaats om het leven gekomen.

I was casually browsing on it today and now all profile pics showing a penis are blurred so you must upload a face pic to unblur the pictures.

Anyway, that means you can't browse profiles without disclosing your identity using incognito mode. At the same time it means your actual photo is now illegally being collected by a shitty company because there's no such law in Washington state dictating that websites must blur content if not presented with a photo to match to photo ID. The website says that they will use your photo to match with your ID....who gave this company access to everyone's IDs?

Anyway I could not screen shoot it from incognito, but maybe one of you fine awesome people could?

How about you? How much did you lose? Don't worry mate! Charles is here to help!

It's a Bike Shuttle Trailer. This one in particular seems to be the smallest one I've seen so far. I have a tiny car so I don't wanna be hauling a refurbished lawn care uhaul trailer. I want something that can carry 6 bikes and a toolbox just in case.

I am very pleased to introduce you a new photography community dedicated to vintage camera lenses.

[email protected]

The idea is to have a place to showcase our pictures made with vintage lenses, either from digital or analog cameras. Additionally, we welcome technical discussions about the use of this kind of lenses.

I started as a pure JPEG-photographer, but Darktable sparked my interest in RAW-photography. Darktable has its quirks, especially for a complete beginner, but its manual way of doing things forced me to learn some fundamentals, instead of just sliding some sliders to see if something sticks.

What is your workflow in Darktable? Which module is a game changer for you?

These are the steps I almost always take:

• denoise (profiled): Match with the ISO of the photo, sometimes reduce 'preserve shadow'
• Lens correction: correction method: Lensfun database. It finds my camera and lens and I like the correction most of the time.
• exposure: turn up the exposure until my subject is well lit.
• crop: to compensate my ability to hold the camera horizontal
• color calibration: I often use the eye dropper on a neutral color, or on the whole picture. Then correct the hue and chroma a bit, until my picture is as balanced as possible.
• diffuse or sharpen: Preset 'lens deblur: medium' to get it sharper
• diffuse or sharpen (second instance): Preset 'local contrast'; I often turn up the iterations, I like it contrasty.
• color calibration: Preset 'basic colorfulness: standard' to get the picture more colorful. I often add even more saturation. What are those chroma-sliders for?
• filmic rgb: I use the eye droper for the white relative exposure. For the black relative exposure, I take a look at the darker parts and turn it down, until I can see enough details in the shadows.

I experimented a bit with the red/green/blue-channel in the color calibration module, according to Boris Hajdukovic. That was fun, but the modules 'color equalizer' and 'rgb primaries' are a bit easier to use to tweak the colors. The 'tone equalizer' is also often used to brighten up the darker parts of my pictures.

Does anyone remember what the toy I'm going to describe is called or if there are any photos of one?

Its a thick wire that has a handle at the bottom and a little ball at the top. The wire/rod allows a monkey or other toy character to slide down from the top of the rod to the handle. The character has some sort of arm or tail composed of a small spring (like the ones in a click top pen) and the spring usually has a weight at the end like a plastic hand or a ball. To operate the toy, you move the monkey up to the top and then give the spring a little wack. The monkey then boings it's way as is claiming down from the rod. It makes a spring boinging noise.

Just wondering if anyone remembers those things.

I've had the CMC bottled for a month now. I can see tiny mold spots growing on it now, but I can still use it. I initially mixed in 0.25% Sodium Benzoate as a preservative. I say as a preservative because that is what every food stuff that uses Sodium Benzoate says. I have very little clue about what it might be doing but I will keep this post updated as the time passes to see how long it lasts. I've used only maybe a 5th of the total 600ml or so that I made at 2% ratio to water. In this sodium benzoate ratio I haven't seen it form the precipitate when mixed with an acid yet, so there is a quantity as which that happens. Also I think its reversible because I can dissolve the precipitate with a good microwaving and mixing.

They had these everywhere. It was definitely a foot fetishistic adult store. It's called Dick's.

I guess I spoke too soon. The CMC formula is great though. The resolution is basically photographic.

For use on plastics you need the sizing that I proposed on there. For regular paper I just noticed that that you shouldn't use peroxide to develop anything. First of all there's actually no hardening due to free radicals necessary. But I noticed that with bad paper, it will immediately turn all blobs of ugly gloppy blue. All that is needed is to remove the yellow sensitizer, so start with water only. But I am thinking that a better developer would be a quick wash in dilute HCl, citric, acetic, oxalic or sulfamic acid.

This is great cheap watercolor paper: https://a.co/d/aNkZqji It works fantastically out of the bag. It comes in a very losely packed thin plastic. Some complain that it comes damaged on the corners but that was not the case for me.

I've tried an old batch of nenah 94lb paper? And that worked well with less surface waviness. Photo paper blued badly on peroxide but maybe it will work with dilute acid.

Vue complète de la carte. Monochrome. On dirait presque un cyanotype !

OMG, I searched methylene blue because I saw it as possible sensitizer for alternative photography. But WTF! It looks like I landed on a chemical misinformation landmine. Everything on YouTube about this chemical sounds like bullshit. This link looks very bullshitty but as I listening to it, this may be one of few links that have some information on this stuff.

This has several issues....

1. Why not view it in your house? Or should we not actually ever own a home? View it next to your cardboard box?

2. okay here's my room look at it! That's all my money stacked neatly. My couch is old, sell me one. Yes I use that kind of laptop, sell me one.

3. you're opening up to getting a ton of dick pics on your server.

Yeah, why only garbeige?

Why not gargreen? Or garyellow. We have garage but not garheight or garweight. Do you measure garage in years or in garyears? I mean, everyone has ears, not just Gary. Maybe that's why there's no garyellow... What the heck is ellow anyways, Gary wouldn't ever have any of that! Not in his Garage, or his garbage, even if we all see it as garbeige.
