GrapheneOS could try supporting handsets that don't involve handing $1000 directly to Google if they want more donations.
The issue is that it continues to be sold as if it does work. It's been used as leverage when proposing more oil projects, and as a greenwashing panacea for politicians, for 20+ years now, despite that it's complete vapourware.
They needed to made to work before it was used as an excuse to drill-baby-drill. Not 30 years later.
I like all of these ideas, and would like to subscribe to all of the sandwich related newsletters.
It's a cutout. She's trying to trick him into groping her.
Canada doesn't have an auto industry. We haven't in generations. We don't own our factories, we don't own the caar companies, and we have no control over what is produced or if it makes sense.
The autoworkers here are just pawns. An expendible extension of the US and Japanese auto industries, which have both made awful choices anf gambles in recent decades.
I wanted to shower, but my wife beat me to it and now the shower is wet. Going to have to wait several hours now.
Blue Jays games have seen a laarge jump in the amount of ads shown this year, too. It's all garish. Watching things on SportsNet is like torture for the eyes.
It's just the tabernacle, which is the little box Catholic churches store the communion wafers and wine in.
This is why most connected people get jobs.
Well, you gotta make sure it's the right people counting the ballots. They need to be properly trained to know which ballots to count as 500 votes and which ones to count as 1.
Crazy how the only one of these airing criticism that says the budget isn't doing enough is the publicly owned one.
Hey everyone, just an update to my last post from Sunday night.
The eclipse went off without a hitch -- thankfully, I am not personally capable of interfering with celestial events -- and I have to say, nothing could have ever possibly prepared me for the experience. No photo has ever actually captured what I saw Monday afternoon. I don't think any of them have come close.
Picture of my own attached for total lack of effect.
As I looked down at my camera screen and watched the last light of the crescent Sun disappear from my view, I felt totality occur. The umbra of the Moon swept over me while I looked down, and the world got noticeably chilly. The wind died down. The world was silent for a hiccup. I immediately and excitedly looked up, and I think my brain broke.
Hovering in the sky over Potato World was an black, alien orb, surrounded by a thin ring of brilliant white and pink shimmering fire. It was something straight out of a science fiction movie, and not necessarily a good one, either. It looked so incredibly fake.
It looked downright cartoony.
And it hit me like a ton of bricks. I wept as I stared at it, completely unable to maintain composure. I gawked at how bright the solar corona actually was -- I had completely expected to have to strain to see it. I marveled as I realized I was seeing, with my own two, naked eyes, solar prominences arching over the limb of the Moon. And I just sobbed through the whole experience.
My fiancee, whose interest in this had seemed to be primarily a mix between modest curiosity in a significant natural and cultural event and support for my interest, also cried at seeing it, while her son sat on the ground with his mouth hanging open.
It was both the longest and the shortest 3 minutes of my life. When it was over, I just stood in the field in a daze, periodically pressing my camera's shutter button. In just a few minutes following the end of totality, the field, in which hundreds of people had gathered, was nearly empty. Only a handful of us remained, and most of the others had heavier equipment than my DSLR and tripod.
At the end of the day, I didn't quite get the pictures I wanted. I had hoped to get bracketed exposures during totality, and I had assumed that my camera's settings for that when using the LCD display as digital viewfinder would be the same as when using the optical viewfinder, and they weren't. But I'm not too fussed about it. The pictures still turned out significantly better than I could have hoped for.
I'll be posting the rest of my photos -- including some pictures of Potato World itself -- to my PixelFed account, which can be found here, if anyone's interested: https://pixey.org/i/web/profile/384533916920271164
