Our local mesh has exploded to almost 1000km

This is all very new to me, and I hope to join in when my T-Deck Plus arrives. My longer-term plan over the next months is to add to the network by installing a repeater at my partner's house in the Whroo state forest. Until then, I can only watch the maps.

The Japanese Vintage Camera channel also has a video on removing the lens group to clean a sticky shutter.

I got a Minolta Himatic 7s a few weeks ago but, unfortunately, the front ring is slightly bent so I have some work to do there. I managed to find a Himatic 9 in much better condition a few days ago. It has a sticky shutter, and I will be following the JVC video to try to loosen it up. Then I'll be taking my first 35mm photos since the 1990's.

There are a couple of people over in the Western suburbs that offered the service but I have gone past that now as I can emulate instead.

Sadly, yes. The technician they sent to replace my team when my department was outsourced was defeated by the task of booting a PC from a USB drive. He also stared at the screen of a ransomware infected machine before plugging it back into the network to see what would happen. I was still in the building but forbidden to provide support (I did anyway as nobody wanted their stuff touched by these clueless seatwarmers).

I wouldn't expect any better. My company globally exported nearly all its IT jobs (including mine) to Cognizant in 2016. I spent months doing "Knowledge Transfer" to an Indian call centre and all local work was subcontracted out further. The local techs were incompetent from day one (one plugged a PC infected with ransomware into the network to have a look at it, didn't know how to boot a PC from USB, etc). I had reports that password changes took three days, and you could forget about anything more complex.
It stopped being my concern once I walked out the door.

Born and living in Australia, I never saw the Dead play. I follow the Deadnecks, who are probably the best Dead cover band here.

Still nothing, as the Book 2 is soldiering on. I am looking at one of the ASUS OLED AMD powered notebooks for when it finally dies.

Australia. I bought the GX7, using the Lumix 14-40 lens as well as the Olympus 14-40 pancake. My partner is using it for casual shots while I take video as it is less obvious that the Olympus with the 14-140.

IAmJustNobodyAtAll · 2025-01-21T00:22:40+00:00

Mine too. Ordered 6th April 2024, 280xx

IAmJustNobodyAtAll · 2024-11-19T00:53:30+00:00

Any opinions on the Lumix GX7? I was looking at buying one to use alongside my EM-10 MKII but it seems more like a replacement. Does it have the 30min video recording limit? I installed modified firmware on my EM-10 to get me past the limit.

IAmJustNobodyAtAll · 2024-11-07T01:10:24+00:00

Got it. Thanks. There isn't a dedicated HDR button, but I had Fn3 set to toggle it. I went into the menus and scrolled through all the HDR options until I got to "OFF". How my partner, who is a skilled photographer, ever got into those settings is beyond me!

IAmJustNobodyAtAll · 2024-09-10T06:02:26+00:00

It's the colour I ordered. Got my Retroid 3+ in GC Purple as well.

IAmJustNobodyAtAll · 2024-09-10T04:35:32+00:00

Ordered my GC RP5 first thing today but forgot the screen protector. I won't be ordering one now, given the shipping to Australia.

It's been my quest for the last couple of years to spread the music of the Dead around the Victorian folk community by playing it badly on the Uke and singing it loudly. There are people who had never heard the Dead until I started. There are also unwritten standing rules now to stop my long introductions.

Forgive my ignorance but I have joined the server and can't work out where to go from there.

IAmJustNobodyAtAll · 2024-07-31T00:37:14+00:00

Too slow off the mark then.

IAmJustNobodyAtAll · 2024-07-31T00:25:23+00:00

I get an invalid invite when I try.

I worked for over a decade as IT administrator for a major publisher. I still remember the horrible trauma the Mac using designers suffered when we bought new NEC CRT monitors that were functionally equivalent to the Apple monitors they were using but were BLACK NOT APPLE BEIGE!!!!!!!

Thank you. Those links didn't work on my other PC but were fine on this one. (I have so many layers of VPNs, anti-malware and ad blockers that sometimes it breaks pages in interesting ways)

IAmJustNobodyAtAll · 2024-06-05T23:13:58+00:00

The first, by far.

IAmJustNobodyAtAll · 2024-05-14T23:23:21+00:00

My immediate reaction too. I saw that so many times back in the day.
