TIL that the mid-range Canon EOS cameras have a fake “overheating” timer when recording high-resolution video to force people to buy the professional EOS cameras

@Nine immaculate attention to detail on the uniforms rendered in dynamic poses?

Also girls doing cool shit

@ben that's practically half the fae who seek an audience with the queen

Instead of weird uncanny valley 3DCG though, we get charades absurd enough to make her jesters feel redundant

Sleepy, ADHD train of thought led me to wondering if there's ways to chemically induce plants that have been bred to seedlessness to produce them

Ah, URL shorteners, my greatest enemy

The URL you want is this, just remove the space after the https:

https:// archive.org/services/loans/loan/?action=media_url&identifier=<IDENTIFIER GOES HERE>&format=pdf&redirect=1

Hey everyone, want to borrow ebooks from archive.org on YOUR terms? 

Here's a method I came up with using Calibre, on all platforms where it's supported.

1. Install the DeACSM and DeDRM plugins into Calibre
2. In the plugin preferences, configure DeACSM and set up anonymous authorization, then export the encryption key and import it into DeDRM's ADE keys
3. Restart Calibre! This is important!
4. On archive.org, find the book you want to borrow and loan it out
5a. If you can borrow it for two weeks, do that and download it in the format you prefer
5b. If you can only borrow it for an hour or it doesn't give you a download, borrow it anyway, then copy the identifier in the metadata, add it to the following URL: archive.org/services/loans/loa<IDENTIFIER GOES HERE>&format=pdf&redirect=1 and download that (you can also change the format to epub or similar but it may not always be available)
6. Add the ACSM file to Calibre and it'll download it and then decrypt it for you
7. Be sure to return the book so other people can use it right away!

Happy reading!

interesting bee fact: antenna is for boop your nose

nft psa 

the mee6 discord bot team is now doing nft's apparently so you may, uh, want to remove that bot from any servers you're in
(mee6.xyz/nft)

@junebug Yeah, better to just try and Get Shit Done at this point, the window to fix it keeps shrinking

Just heard a fitbit ad with a woman who says "I sometimes sleep so well, I'm ready for anything the next day" and I literally said "fuck you" out loud.

@Runner "Do an aileron roll" sounds so much less interesting though

I got a discount christmas kinder egg pack and got this absolutely adorable raptor, this is now one of the most important things in my life for the next 12 hours
