Kind of a dev
I mostly post about random old stuff I restore or just repair, such as mechanical cameras, typewriters, audio equipment, or computers. Usually going through phases, currently: Cameras
I also read a lot.

Every year when the leaves turn brown, I decide
"it is time,I must become Santa"
and grow a full beard, and every year after about a month of doing that, I remember that having a beard is FUCKING HORRIBLE and it just feels like pressing my face into a slightly softer hedgehog half the time

I swear to dog one day I will use a rangefinder and the focus will be on the thing and not behind it because I think my eyes are just stupid. Not bad, just dumb.
Anyway I pushed some Agfa APX100 to 400ish again, some blurry glasses for your viewing pleasure

I wonder how many convincing "yeah it's important don't worry about it" I still have in me until my parents realize that the thing I put in their basement a year ago isn't actually some important part of their internet connection but a storage server that is just too annoyingly noisy for my place 👀

BREAKING: In Gießen herrscht komplett verkehrte AfD-Welt: Bürgermeister lässt die friedlichen Demonstrationen von Polizei mit barbarischer Gewalt zusammenschlagen. Warum werden die, die sich für Demokratie & Rechtsstaat einsetzen, zusammengeschlagen und nicht die, die beides zerstören wollen???

Y'know, I try to like Leica as a company, which also means that I try to ignore everything they did in the last 20 years and most of their customers, but I have to read some stuff for research and it's hard to remember that they weren't always the "look at me!!" golden tech bro Lambo of photography

So... it's (mostly) the curtain, got a big burn-hole. Not great, not terrible, available as aftermarket part but I gotta hunt for that.
Kind of a unique issue with rangefinders: The sun hates them and if you store them without a lens cap, it will try to kill them if it gets the chance

May the gods have mercy on me, I got a broken Leica M5 for repair and have to hope that nothing in there is actually physically broken - just grimey, out of adjustment or whatever - because getting any replacement parts beyond screws and springs will involve questions like "They want HOW MUCH?"

I need to hop between 4 different trains today and spend some time at each intermediate place to get something, like a quest you need to do in order.
Planning 30min buffer per train for delays ✅
Knowing alternative routes ✅
Arrive early at the first stop✅
...A tree just fell on the track

Downloading some Christmas songs off YouTube for my Dad's Christmas thing, and he thinks we're doing something so very illegal that we need to be careful, lest YT kicks in the door and takes his 7 public domain Christmas songs.
Using yt-dlp in a terminal adds to the "hacking the youtube" aesthetic.

Added a secret trapdoor that launches randomly colored balloons when clicking the thing.
This may _sound_ like a stupid feature, but it's actually very important because that's how the sad =( is turned back into a happy =)

Also a cat, which mostly just stares straight ahead, occasionally blinks, and appreciates getting clicked.
Why?
I don't know, it's caturday, let the =) have a cat.
