Also yeah I ditched the SMA connector. I have a few of those board-edge ones lying around and Rene Wolf's amp uses them (which I based this on), but I'll need an adapter to 75ฮฉโ€ BNC anyway, so might as well use something that won't rip the port out of the camera sideways if I trip on the cable.

I had (and still have) no idea what KeePassXC is, so these interactions make for a real cool first impression... /s

A pack of five MN27 batteries. Two of them are already leaking, long before the expiry date.

Seems Panasonic reused the same "EVR" (whatever that means) connector for several of their camcorders. This will work with at least: NV-RX64, NV-RX67, NV-RZ9, NV-RZ10...

Dumbest thing about this breakout/amp setup, though, is the head switch signal it exposes is 1/4 field rate (due to VHS-C 4 head shenanigans). The RCA is there to bring that out if I really want it but I'll probably not bother since software side doesn't really make use of head switch atm anyway.

Those tapes do play fine in a normal VCR but seem to have been recorded with a slightly misaligned linear head so the video bleeds into the audio when I try make it sound clear. Obviously no hifi on these. Yes I'll run them through the normal one first in case the camera decides to die and eat tape.

It's a probably-overkill amplifier to plug in the bottom of a very specific model of Panasonic camcorder to let me hook it up to my cxadc setup. I have like 50 of my family's VHS-C tapes to transfer and they were all recorded on this very unit so I'm hoping it'll give good results.

I wish I could step up and organize something here but I suck at organizing things so... idk, grab what you like and tell your friends I guess, or if someone good at organizing such things sees this feel free to do it better than I can

If anyone has a lot of money to spend on archival, there's like ยฅ190,000 (by my estimate) worth of purchasable downloads on the Kyoani download store that disappears on November 28, seemingly not offered anywhere else. Idk if anyone else has archived it yet. www.kyotoanimation.co.jp/information/...

Checked my twitter timeline today. Right off the bat a former mutual retweeting some ragebait about China/Japan culture "war" from someone who apparently also hates anyone with a Ukraine flag in their bio... I didn't really expect any different but man is it disappointing.

Can't get over the fact my old Xiaomi with a Pixel rom on it got free photos storage and then right when I went and bought an actual pixel they got rid of that... I really gotta move to Immich or something soon

Wait I think it kinda did what I wanted actually! Still melts around 60ยฐC but much better film-forming ability and less sticky when solidified. Now if only I had a compatible pigment...

Following a recipe for thermal transfer inks very roughly, I mixed paraffin wax with pine rosin, and just got a shittier kind of wax. Also tried cooking some ink hoping to get a dry pigment out of it and just made fancy blue tar. Amateur chemistry sure is fun... At least I didn't poison myself yet.

Quite exciting, but I can't help but worry a bit for the future of JE given the sudden shift from "we need to make sure people know Minecraft is closed-source by obfuscating it" to ditching that whole idea. I'm not saying "OMG IS JAVA EDITION OVER?" but... I just wanna know what prompted this change

A sale page on mercari for a rare Kasane Teto plush doll listed for $450 US. The images and description imply that it is a sale for the actual plush, but at the very bottom of the description there is a note stating "I am only shipping a picture of the plush, not the plush itself" and that cancellations/returns are not accepted. The seller's other items and past buyer feedback are made to seem legitimate. This is a known scam technique.

Lmao... A friend was on my MC server when I turned off the router and I didn't realize, but they still couldn't connect after. I restarted stuff and made sure their DNS updated etc. Turns out the auth servers went down just before I touched the router. I accidentally did it at the BEST time I guess.
