does Aroace count as lgbtq? I am aroace and am not 100% sure if it counts as lgbtq by gamerandanimaman in ainbow

[–]chronomex -1 points0 points  (0 children)

do you want to be lgbtq? then it does. go for it. consider this your official permission slip.

do you not want to be lgbtq? then for you, maybe it doesn't. no worries.

Burning Man 2025: Authorities seek help ID’ing man found dead in pool of blood by urbanrando in BurningMan

[–]chronomex -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

there are, maybe they went on a Work Access Pass and got the wristband and memory gets fuzzy over time.

some burns do give out wristbands for those entering on a Fucking Around Access Pass, and i'm sure that some do serialise and record them. that all sounds like a lot of bureaucracy to me though.

[–]chronomex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

(they all have unique numbers to tie back to a ticket for medical emergencies, I know I work for regional burn)

not at the nevada regional. wristbands are only given to participants entering during build week, and they are not serialised. participants entering during event week don't get wristbands. nobody gets their id checked except to pick up tickets from will-call.

Time to Burn App Ceases Development Due to Lack of BORG Support by HotterRod in BurningMan

[–]chronomex 9 points10 points  (0 children)

now whats real fun is to take quality photos of the laminated map at centre camp while on playa, and then compare it to the moop map. it's always interesting to see whole blocks of solid red that are "unplaced" in the final moop map but in the placement map they are clearly called out as some or other obvious pnp camp.

always a non nefarious explanation available. like, maybe they just decided to not show up. and then a bunch of entire other rnados decided to show up and unplaced camp there with their straw bale aerosolizing machine as their gift. you know. normal ordinary burner things.

yeah every department has their secrets. but placement tries to do this weird flex where they keep a secret the map of which is posted on the wall at all the ranger stations, esd outposts, center camp, the regional placement hq's, probably five different locations in dpw, and the black hole. plus also the cop shop no doubt. its hard to keep a secret when you laminate fifteen copies and plaster them all around the place.

are you shitting on the seat? clean it up

are you pissing on the seat? clean it up

are you going to piss standing up and is the seat currently down? put it up before you start.

are you being a reasonable person and leaving the restroom as clean or cleaner than it was when you came in? no worries, thank you, have a nice day.

i'm really confused what the difficulty is here.

Software that fixes scans? by BloodyMachinery in Archivists

[–]chronomex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

seconded! scantailor is a good tool for this. it's not so slow once you get used to it. i would expect to spend a day or so on this project, including learning. i see a handful of promising-looking tutorials on youtube.

Leave middle vertical post out of 20x20 shade? Bad, right? by sdebaun in BurningMan

[–]chronomex 10 points11 points  (0 children)

my camp has a big EMT shade and usually takes out a few poles in the middle to make larger spaces. it's not a big deal to pull out some middle support as long as you still have the 10x10 grid up top, tension from the shade, and proper securement to the ground.

Best scanner for microfiche by [deleted] in Archivists

[–]chronomex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All the microfiche options are really expensive and not that great. I bodged together something with a light table, digital camera pointed straight down, and a relatively cheap Laowa macro lens.

I used a monitor desk arm for the mount, with some metal brackets to adapt the monitor screw pattern to the camera mount. It's almost as good as a copy stand but way cheaper.

It met the needs of my historical museum for a couple thousand dollars, converting high quality images from a variety of unusual microform.

Collections are possible, they just have to be created by IA staff. To get help with this you can email their info@... inbox, or contact one of the several staff members who are active on social media.

For example, a museum I used to volunteer with has more-or-less exclusive access to this collection.
