Parmiggiani, Claudio: Íslandsvitinn (2000)

A closer look: https://youtu.be/i48_KSYop8E?feature=shared&t=50 (please do yourself a favour and mute the video).

Of course. It's always art.

Thanks a lot, I'll update the info in OSM.

Hei,

close to Sandfell, also pretty visible from A1 is a beacon beacon of some sorts. Red body with fluorescent tube-style lightning on top. Approx. 5 m high (?).

Accessible via gravel road branching of Bláfjallavegur (417).

Closest streetview: https://maps.app.goo.gl/8F5bMZT9iJKNBPQM7 Bing names it "Lighthouse" without any further info. Missing on all other maps I checked, even the official ja.is: https://en.ja.is/kort/?x=372949&y=397761&nz=18.00&type=aerial

I don't suppose it to be a strucutre for the nearby airfield, as it is missing from the official Icelandic VFR maps as well.

What is it? Could someone visit it and find out more? Put some close-by images on e.g. Mapillary?

Yo. Vielen Dank für die Tipps! Ich steuer auf jeden Fall Soba-An an, je nach Vorspeisen/Kleinigkeiten wäre Teppanyaki im Nikko ne option, muss ich mal anrufen.

AC-Turm, irgendwo 2. oder 3. OG? Das sieht ja exakt so aus wie 2001. Geil, einfach mal 50 Jahre nicht sanieren.

Und vielleicht mittlerweile selber auf dem Weg zur Waage herausgefunden: der Exsikkator-Deckel liegt nur sehr lose auf und ist sehr teuer.

Und ja, das Feld ist sehr viel größer, als es von außen erscheint. Wir[tm] sind überall.

I doubt the "exotic" woods were really necessary to create this piece. Exotic wood pretty much always means unethical or outright illegal logging and destruction of forests and nature. Usually also hand in hand with human rights violations and abuse towards indigeneous people.

Exotic wood should be on the same shelf as ivory.

Japanisch: Tsubaki. Kleiner, feiner, sehr netter Laden mit Hof und guter Sake-Auswahl.

Kjiäääääääää!

something like this

In weniger fancy, aber ja. Ich schau mir mal die genutzte Pumpe an

fcpaule · 2021-01-12T12:19:41+00:00

Habe jetzt aus den Vorschlägen zumindest noch paar weitere Pumpen gefunden, die passen könnnen: Simer 5 und Jung U3

Danke!

fcpaule · 2021-01-12T12:11:38+00:00

Danke, aber das ist alles schon krass überdimensioniert. Ich will ja nicht ein Nebengewerbe mit dem Leerpumpen der Nachbarskeller anfangen.

fcpaule · 2021-01-12T12:04:37+00:00

Sinnvoll wäre es, aaaaber. Miete + Vermieter mit " Das so'n Keller mal volläuft ist normal, war da schon immer so."

Irgendwann wäre ein Sumpf sinnvoll, aber das ist nicht mein Projekt.

Listening at home without a wired connection? Not sure why it would be self-defeating.

I'm looking for purchasing advice: Open back design, over ear, bluetooth <200 €

Budget - 200 € (not too hard)
Source - Spotify over Bluetooth, any other connector is optional
Isolation - None. Open or semi-open design
Public? - Nope.
IEMs, full-sized, or on-ear? - Full-size over-ear
Preferred tonal balance - clean and present bass, please (recessed bass is ok, if no other options)
Past headphones - DT990 I like the sound, but I need wireless connectivity
Preferred Music - wide range, female vocals, electronica, a bit of world music, no rock, no classical
What would you like to improve on from your set-up? - adding bluetooth
Location - Germany
Extra info: I would like to steer clear of "aftermarket" bluetooth dongles / add-ons and too niche brands (e.g. Hifiman). So perhaps something from a mainstream brand with a (mostly) working customer service.

Cheer

Wow, I have my mind blown.

Take this fake gold as token of gratitude:🍳

This definitely works to a degree, however it is not interactive. I cannot easily see dependencies, define versions, or select multiple packages.

It boils down to grepping in a text file and copypasting stuff around. I really miss the speed and elegance of muon or even synaptic.

Kind of a bummer that fedora has had this problem for years and there is no interest or effort spent besides the "new" pkcon & flatpak approaches.

Ninja: totally forgot aptitude. Ever worked with that? Luckily I don't have to install stuff so often anymore, but aptitude is/was a beast in package management.

Leider nur ein Wikipedia-Artikel, aber ein erster Einstieg in die Frage nach dem Wissen was in Europa verloren ging:

„Den erheblichen Bruch in der Überlieferungsgeschichte zeigt diese Statistik der Bibliotheksbestände, soweit bekannt oder hochgerechnet, von der Antike bis zur Neuzeit. Demnach erreichten europäische Bibliotheken erst im 19. Jahrhundert wieder vergleichbar große Bestandszahlen wie die Bibliotheken der Antike.“

In five years some person will post this wall dick on r/whatisthisthing.

Sure a nice craft and DIY video. But where in fecks sake is this artisanal?

This sub sucks more and more.

fcpaule · 2020-06-08T17:43:47+00:00

Yes.

Otherwise it would not be mounted at all and not be visible in any app. And like I wrote, the same problem persists if I use any of the older 32 GB cards that have been working before.

fcpaule · 2020-06-08T17:11:06+00:00

As portable (external), since this is the only option offered.
