ohhh this is cool, I got the slightly more expensive M42 to Canon EF adaptor from aliexpress with an identification chip, and now it does focus beeping (even though it's still a vintage lens with manual focus), and has more accurate exposure in liveview

Hey Science, I need a tube in my kitchen so I can shout "butter, you dickhead" into it and I'll hear that two days ago when I'm standing in the middle of the supermarket thinking "what was I out of again?"

Furthermore, I encourage any FOSS projects who have accounts on fosstodon.org to either move to an instance of their own where feasible or move to a better FOSS oriented instance.

The FOSS community at large deserves better than what fossotodon.org can deliver.

Like do you really want your FOSS project's account on a instance where the admin behaves like *that*? or where it is policy that all posting must be in English.

Last time I checked, FOSS is supposed to be for everyone, not just people who speak English.

Clarification edit - FOSS stands for Free and Open Source Software.

picking up a project I last touched 10 months ago and man I left it quite the wreck

and, because it always goes back to Jacob Geller: Worlds Designed for Violence

Show thread

it reminds me of the preface of "All That Is Solid Melts Into Air", about (post)modernism; analyzing the architecture of Brazil's new capital, Brasìlia, designed as "embodying the hopes of the Brazilian people", but turning out to be a city perfect for holding control, depriving people of common spaces to freely interact, and providing ample infrastructure to quell revolution

possibly spoilers for Silo/Snowpiercer 

actually they're both structures built for control, incredibly easy to have checkpoints either in a train or a single staircase, and cut off entire sections. literally just vertical/horizontal variants

Show thread

Silo really feels like a mix of 1984 and Snowpiercer
