A command line interface showing a list of PHP packages that can be installed on a Linux (RHEL) server, one of the entries is "php-snuffleupagus"

Ok, I just saw this package for the first time,somehow never noticed it in years of installing PHP when deploying new web servers

PHP and Sesame Street, those are two things I would have never put together. One gives joy to children all over the world, the other…😅

Black and white photo of two strips of blank film on a white background, the top one is a standard still camera film with KS perforations, the bottom one is motion picture film with BH perforations

If you have trouble sleeping and need a boring Wikipedia rabbit hole, here's one for you: film perforations

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Film_pe...

For instance still camera film (top) tend to use the KS (Kodak Standard) perforations, while motion picture film (bottom) use the BH (Bell and Howell) perfs

Color film photo of the top view of a Ford-Cosworth DFR V8 engine, mounted on a late 1980s F1 racer, photographed from the rear of the car. In the upper part of the picture you can also see the legs of a few bystanders in front of the parked racecar.

Some Ford-Cosworth DFR V8 porn. 😜

Oh, just to make it clear: it's not a lie or cheating, it's just the role I've been doing for a couple of years now, but it was finally formalized.

At least now I have another pretext to ask for a raise in the next months 😏

Today at work they wrote me on Teams during a partners meeting

"can we change your corporate email signature to [my new job title]?"

"yeah I guess" I said

This is how promotions work in IT consulting 🤣

Apparently I needed to appear more professional to a client I'll have to work on in the future

A man sitting at a table, only his back is visible, he's looking out of the window towards the Imola racetrack pit lane. On the table his Nacional baseball cap, similar to the one Ayrton Senna wore. Senna sadly died in Imola on May 1st 1994 during the San Marino Gran Prix.

Imola, 31 years later. 😢

A pair of cutting pliers on the left, and on the right two opened plastic wristbands for paddock/media access to the 2025 edition of the Minardi Day event in Imola

I went to a motorsport event today, and I wanted to take off these wristbands in a clean way to keep them as mementos.

The first thing that came out on Google is a @deviantollam.bsky.social video I already watched but forgot 😅

I think I'll try to expose it at 500, maybe a few shots at 640 and see how they will turn out.

Thanks for sharing your experience!

Looking online I found lots of people shooting it at 640 and getting nice results.

I understand that C-41 pushes it compared to ECN-2 (that's why Cinestill sells 500T as 800), but I'm worried that 800 may be pushing it too much

I'm planning to shoot it during the day but indoors/in low light.

A 135 film cassette being held by three fingers, the label shows it's Filmriss Cosmo 500T, which is respooled Eastman Vision3 500T AHU

I have a question for fellow film photographers: just got some respooled #Vision3 #500T #AHU (the new one w/o remjet)

Do you have any tips on what #ISO should I expose it at? The seller says 800 if developed in C-41, but recommends 500 for better results.

God I love Reddit.

Someone posted a photo of a 35mm BW roll of film they tried developing at home to ask what caused the problem they had

It seemed a clear case of not enough solution (they used monobath, ugh)

One comment said "not enough picture juice"

I almost spit out the tea I was drinking 🤣

I'm arguing with a Linux webserver.

Apache has decided to timeout when starting and I can't figure out why.

Ugh.

A color photography of a Bentley 4½ Litre parked near Brooklands Clubhouse. The car is painted green and has a Union Jack flag on the door. Behind it, there is a group of people chatting in front of another partly visible vintage car.

Old glory.

A long exposure photo of the night sky, showing lots of stars and a white haze in the center.

Starry night, looking up while chilling on the balcony.

if you love something, take it apart until you understand it, then share it with the world.

Ok I turned off my Lenovo-branded space heater, let's enjoy one hour of pool time before dinner.

(Having fun working from the seaside while it lasts, autumn is coming 😅)

A screenshot of an email from Linus Torvalds, dated August 25, 1991, with the subject line "What would you like to see most in minix?". The body of the email describes the start of his project, a "free operating system," and asks for feedback. He mentions that the OS will not be "big and professional like gnu" and that it's "just a hobby."

Happy 34th birthday to the Linux kernel!

On this day, August 25th, we celebrate 34 years since Linus Torvalds announced his new toy project. What started as a small, personal project has grown into the powerful Linux kernel, the heart of countless devices worldwide.

I own 0.0000002% of Intel, but I don't usually feel like bragging about it.

(I bought 10 shares a year ago. After it went down, of course. Don't usually do single stock picking, but I was bored and felt I could gamble 200 bucks)

Yeah, they still are, I bought mine a few months ago on eBay for 30€.

It's a cheap way to scratch that rangefinder itch without breaking the bank, and as you said for what they cost they're not bad cameras

A black and white photo of a wooden table, on it an almost empty glass containing a rum and coke, on the right an ashtray, a pack of Cohiba Club cigarillos, and a chromed zippo lighter. On the left a FED-5v rangefinder film camera.

The usual summer Sunday evening.

Smoking my weekly cigarillo on the balcony overlooking the lagoon, sipping a rum and Coke, looking at the clouds, ready to grab my rangefinder film camera if something interesting catches my eye.

Also, maybe a coincidence, but the fictional team in the F1 movie is called APX GP, and my camera in front of me is loaded with a roll of APX 100 (the modern stuff made by Ilford that is AGFA in name only). 🤣

I just watched the #F1 #movie. I hated less than I would have thought, it's enjoyable entertainment

Racing movies tend to have crap storylines (unless they're movies inspired by real events) but excellent visuals

Anyway, my all time favorite movie about F1 remains Frankenheimer's 1966 "Grand Prix"

And I'll tell you even more: as an Italian (real Italian, not one from New Jersey), I kind of enjoy hawaiian style pizza.

I love the sweet and savoury contrast of ham and pineapple.

Also a lot of Italian people eat cured ham with sliced melon in the summer, so...

TBH living in #Italy people are obsessed about food, for some reason we tend to believe we have the best food in the world and love to argue about it.

So every time you state a food opinion you tend to offend someone else, that's why I stopped caring long ago.

4 months ago I was in New York City eating my first slice of NY-style pizza ever.

To celebrate that anniversary, I ordered pizza tonight. 🍕

Actually (and I don't care if I offend anyone with this statement) NY-style pizza is similar to the average takeout pizza you get here in Italy.

Still, managed to snag a single room with breakfast in a nice 4* hotel , and high speed rail tickets to travel back home via Milan, where I plan to stop for the day and have lunch with a friend, maybe snap some photos.

And all of this will probably cost less than the wedding gift 😅

Finally I booked an hotel room and the train back home for a wedding I'll have to attend next Friday.

I caved in just because tomorrow the ticket prices will increase (Trenitalia lower fares usually disappear 1 week before travel date). I'm a master procrastinator.
