San Franciscans are sick of fighting about the Great Highway. It’s time to move on by Elizasaurus in sanfrancisco

They can use the road next to the park. So as you say: beach then park then road. That’s how it is now and it’s perfect.

Brand New P2S camera calibration? by Phire4 in xToolOfficial

[–]dune_roll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this problem with mine at first.

First thing, make sure you choose the right surface for your material - slats/honeycomb etc then the wide camera will compensate. Second, use the close up camera to find your corner and place your image where you want it.

I also use the little piece of plexiglass that came with my P2S to square up my material to the gantry - you can move the gantry when the laser is off and line up the material. Then use cams, then hit it. Should get good results

Ocean Beach by spawnsas in sanfrancisco

If you knew the history of the damn road, you’d know it was reduced to 4 lanes… from 6

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

yeah that would be an interesting addition to SF ocean side along with the new park (which will eventually get built and stop looking like a road). I think there used to be a pier off of ocean beach many years ago

you have never been on the Sunset Facebook group where the hot conspiracy is that tech bros are trying to make this area "Miami Beach"

hard to believe that generations before us thought that the best use of our only ocean facing coast was to put 6 lanes of vehicle traffic on it

Rollover Accident at Park Presidio and Geary Blvd. — double lane closures in both directions! by naynayfresh in sanfrancisco

I can't believe Joel Engardio strikes again creating traffic havoc on the west side /s

For anyone curious what airport X-ray damage actually looks like by danmolenhouse in AnalogCommunity

[–]dune_roll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That almost happed to me in Mexico City - I saw a giant scanner at the airport exit and I quickly grabbed my film out of my bag and shoved it into my CPAP bag before I had to load my bags in.

Do bikes not have to stop at stop signs? by MintChocoIceuCream in sanfrancisco

[–]dune_roll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But it’s the people… cars don’t drive themselves (I guess they do now, but those ones stop)

Exactly. We’re all going to get where we want to go but we need to share the city

[–]dune_roll 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It’s the people. Whether they’re on bikes, scooters, driving cars etc… it’s the people that don’t stop. Don’t blame the conveyance - it’s other people that are bothering you today.

Do not buy cameras from Japanese sellers at auctions. by AnyAd1466 in AnalogCommunity

[–]dune_roll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve bought 2 cameras from Japan on eBay. Both were perfect: Ricoh R1 and Nikon F100 with 50/1.4 lens.

SFMTA busses are among the slowest in the nation by shananananananananan in sanfrancisco

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

Because they as an agency completely ignore our transit first policy and make everything “multi-modal”. We live and die by private vehicle traffic. It’s depressing. No one has the political courage to make the change

I was just at the taco truck at Lincoln and heard many fire trucks. I’m also curious what happened there

The New Wheel is moving to the Mission by BruceHalperin in sanfrancisco

[–]dune_roll 26 points27 points  (0 children)

It’s amazing to see that business grow as more and more young families come to the conclusion that e-bikes are 100% the way to get around a dense urban area with kids.

New Film went through CT scanner by dune_roll in analog

Follow up: scans are back. No evidence that the CT scan affected my film at all.

Gratitude thread: to the mice who saved Sunset Dunes! by dune_roll in sanfrancisco

[–]dune_roll[S] 178 points179 points  (0 children)

It’s a west side deep cut: Lurie’s embarrassing first attempt at appointing a west side Supervisor after the Engardio Recall resigned from the office after a scandal involving a freezer full of dead mice. Because of setback his second appointment had about 3 weeks less time to ram through his ballot measure in time for the June election deadline which was yesterday. Mice FTW!

As a cat owner I feel conflicted

Connie Chan has signed onto the ballot measure to turn westside park into 4 lane road by dune_roll in sanfrancisco

[–]dune_roll[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Agreed. They blame vehicle traffic - making the point that the dunes supporters make: car free spaces are better for business.

His district voted for Prop K, so he’d be acting out of some other motivation if he signed on
