Entirely unexpected, my timeline treated me to a photo of someone's workspace where they had a relatively large (like 20"+) ePaper monitor.

I knew they existed, I knew people used them, but at the prices they cost ($1500+) I somehow was caught off guard.

Pleasantly suprised, but I want one now!

While it feels inefficient, I'm very glad to find out that Darktable is still useful for non-RAW culling and binning of shots.

14k photos got binned to ~800 relatively quickly, and I've got a new workflow for events. Yay!

I've been a fan of bone conducting headphones for a while now, but does anyone have takes on *wired* bone conducting headphones?

Trying to see about a set so I can do video editing without worrying about the latency being frustrating. Worst case, I can just do the ol' DIY but I'd like to not.

Hi, #3dprinting. As of a few weeks ago, I'm unemployed.

I want to do this full time. Be the filament librarian for real instead of just on the weekends, like I have for the last six years.

Can you help? forum.filamentcolors.xyz/d/31-a-call-... Reposts appreciated!

Traditional art done in marker and colored pencil. The picture is bright and colorful. It shows an orange striped cat climbing a branch of a tangerine tree, sniffing the tangerines growing on it. The picture has checker-flower patterns framing it on the top and bottom.

A human hand grips a cat that is sitting up peacefully in a well kept room. The cat has neat, short gray hair, and has piercing green eyes. It looks ambivalently at the person holding the camera and presumably the grip.

There are no indicated sound effects in this comic, so the sounds are up to your imagination.

Panel 1: Hatsune Miku, Akita Neru, and Kasane Teto are on stage performing their song Triple Baka, with Miku pointing forward towards the crowd, Neru tapping on her phone, and Teto singing contently. Teal, yellow, and red lights shine into the sky behind them.

Panel 2: The crowd is going wild, many hands with glowsticks in the. A few people are wearing Miku and Teto t-shirts. The Neru cosplayer girl from the previous comic is on her dad's shoulders to get a better view of the concert.

Panel 3: The exterior of the amphitheater-esque concert venue. It's by a grassy park on one side and a body of water on the other. A few lit windows of the city they're in can be seen in the background. There's a sign on the wall of the venue that says "SHOW!!" with a long blue triangle and a short red triangle on it. A blue, yellow, and red spotlight shine out of the venue into the night sky, which is opalescent and littered with different shaped stars and galaxies.

Panel 4: We pan farther up into that colorful night sky and words appear, reading: Your effect on the world matters no matter who remembers it and how

iirc the db engine they use doesn't have unsigned integers (which is reasonable-ish for portability)
