@jla I just merged the fandom, cool huh?

@jla it's definitely the year wherein non-person accounts arose in an attempt to turn !gnusocial into another marketably-hip vehicle by which to advance the fourth estate above the meeple-ridden third & in process create the expressedly-unconstitutional - & respectively second and first - estates of nobility and royalty: the mysterious "verified" // the lords of waterdeep // the meowmeowbeenz fives // the sweet and elite #friendshipIsMagic #canterlotGardenParty !fediverse

@takekiwiakenji @mono @jla I love the micro 4/3rds format. The sensor isn't much smaller than APS (18x13.5mm vs 24x18mm), so it's still great in low-light. But since it's closer to a square format than APS, the lenses can be made *much* smaller and lighter for the same aperture.
My daily carry (literally) is a Canon T3i with the new-design 24/2.8 pancake and 50/1.8 focus-by-wire lenses, but I'm giving serious thought to selling the whole Canon kit and going with something micro 4/3rds. -
@postblue, that looks neat :)

@jla i like them, specially if they are waifu

@jla Thanks, Justice League of America!

@jla good to see that not everybody uses Gnome, KDE, XFCE and LXDE these days :) Do you still use #Windowmaker today or is it an old system?

@jla I mostly use a Hario V60 dripper but also have an Aeropress for the quick'n easy small portions.

@mikael @jla I grind my beans with a manual grinder because it's pretty quick and easy. It's also dead simple to clean.
I don't really drink coffee anymore, though, for health reasons. http://ur1.ca/p0cwl -

@mono @jla I often pair my Micro Four Thirds camera with a pancake lens when taking photos like 'normal' people do with a phone. When I'm in a dimly-lit space, with the aperture set to f/1.8 or so, I can get a shutter speed of 60 with a reasonable ISO setting, so the photos generally look pretty sharp.
While the wide aperture does severely limit the depth of focus, that's usually not a significant problem in those cases. I can always set up my mini tripod when on the go to allow for a slower shutter speed and a narrower aperture without blur. -
@jla @mono Well, when you have a tiny sensor like on a phone you have to make serious compromises to get anything.
1) If you turn the ISO sensitivity way up, you get a ton of graininess.
2) If you turn the 'shutter' speed way down, you get a ton of blurriness.
3) If you do neither, your photo is very dark.
How these companies are trying to pack a ton more 'megapixels' into these tiny sensors only worsens the problem. In fact, the best thing they can do with all these 'megapixels' is downsample until the noise and blur are unnoticeable, which some phones do in software. -
@jla As Wikipedia tells us https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_301
We will think about handling this... -
Yeah I suppose mst3k would count.

It was a joke on the "teaching kids to install Gentoo" thing. I don't know if anything changed, I'm still pretty new.

@jla Late-reply: The Oval album you linked to was... interesting. Good enough to keep in my collection, at least. Thanks for sharing!

I'm slightly disappointed about this not being Creative Commons due to being sponsored by cultural organisations, but hey, free music, cool.

Is @jla a spambot or what?

I must admit I'm not familiar with those, just watched what came in TV back then. I think was on RTL II http://ur1.ca/cyrej
