A photo of the tower of the Nieuwe Kerk in Delft. They buried our dead Dutch royals here.

Went to Delft today with my Fuji GSW690 camera

YouTube video by Adam Savage’s Tested The Secrets of Replica NASA Spacesuit Hardware!

The main inspiration was this video. It has a whole bunch of interesting design considerations for things you want to have release easily when you really want to, but absolutely not when you don't: www.youtube.com/watch?v=YPEw...

A couple of containers with brightly colored lids, with scalloped grips and a fancy bolt pattern for keeping the parts together

I needed a bunch of containers for old lenses that are missing lens caps, so I designed one with caps inspired by the locking mechanism of hoses on space suits. And then 3d printed them in a bunch of colors

Ever since you posted about going to this LARP I was wondering what it was like. And you did a good job telling how it worked, but also the emotional impact and what it meant for you

Multipla

Ep. III denotes Epoch 3, so definitely after WW2. This is the standard for those epochs: www.morop.org/images/NEM_r...

I'm not sure about the origins of these boxcars, they might be surplus WW2, or part of some deal related to the Marshall plan

Multipla

No idea what they are, but they are pretty pink flowers that seem to glow a bit at the edges

Went out and made some photos of familiar places

A friend wanted to learn fusion and together we designed this rgb light we’re calling pixel

The rgb part is pretty simple, it is one of those standard ws2812 strips, with wires running to an esp32 in it’s butt that’s running wled

Three abstract figures with an rgb light as a head sitting on a record cabinet

I 3d printed three of them and designed a bench for it to sit on

i am pretty good at the whole "fixing distributed systems" stuff but i'm also pretty good at the "levelling up a team" stuff too

I do hope it's you in a decade time, like i've been able to do with the stuff I shot a decade ago

Yeah, the only thing that keeps me going is the incredible sized negatives, and seeing the results on my large monitor when editing.

I wouldn’t go that far, but the moment somebody makes cohost2 or just a better tumblr I’m jumping ship. Because this place is not inspiring me to do more photography

In addition to better image compression I also would like a cross platform drafts option where I can queue photos like a slide projector. Though basically I want cohost back

Even in portrait you only get to 1:1, which is insane
