How about Monsanto?


Ah, yes! Food!

It’s a hard watch so click at your own peril.
Nope.
Not very. Currently in an air conditioned office.
So its not too bad. It could be kombucha.


Fire blows up shaving cream can inside my downstairs fire place!


Can a person ride 30Km in that environment without fear of death or starvation and for a useful purpose like getting somewhere or meeting someone?


Get a cheap mini PC instead.


Extract the gene and inject it into a roach. Then encode human DNA into roach eggs and fly those roaches to Mars. After a few generations we would have a fully grown man roach able to feed off the radiation. That’s as far as I’ve gotten that idea. Oh man, tomorrow is another fuckin Monday. But we’re just 5 more weeks from 2026 can’t wait to 2029 when we’ll have a new president. Thanks electoral college! Without you we wouldn’t be able to choose the most retarded possible person for the job. I hope you guys eat some psychedelics this time around. Sure we could also choose whatever the public picks. Wait, what was the question?


Oh, less great. Let’s one day do the full government paycheck thing. If anyone proposes that I will vote yes on it. We vote for school taxes to make new schools. Why not pay for new programs if we use those in schools too. Am I right? But a tax write off I guess its not bad.


Yeah its pretty simple yet very much not trivial. You can get images that are relatively fine by just making one from cardboard even. All you need is 4 mirrors. Two pairs for one side and two for the other. The non trivial part is how to fill the whole sensor frame and what specific angles to use for your specific lens. I’m using a 40mm lens full frame. 35mm can see the inside of the adapter so that’s not good. It gets worse with the wide lenses on your phone, but you can still get an image you can crop. And its its really freaking cool to see your kids and family in 3D on your phone on a finished image. Unfortunately my family runs from the camera and doesn’t get the 3D effect at all…and doesn’t even want to try. But whatever. Maybe one day when I’m long gone, one of their kids will find an old rusty SD card and discover the awesome thing that 3D is. I don’t understand why all the 3D headset makers haven’t jumped on this with a standard…simple, have all new phones get 2 cameras, and then create the software to take the images or video. Finally have that video in a standard format for all viewers. There’s plenty of smart people that can do this.
Oh and yes, you can do 3D video and it kicks wide angle viewed video so so much. It’s phenomenal to watch my kid slide down a slide in 3D. I know it sounds stupid but man…the possibilities for the right open minded community are endless.


This is an awesome idea! So basically you can do open source work if you’re between jobs. Keeps your skills, gets you paid and gives back.


You can do both cross and parallel:


There isn’t an online specific place for 3D printing optic assemblies but there are plenty of places to read about stereo photos. There’s even a software called stereophotomaker that helps you crop and adjust the photos you take.


I 3D printed a special lens to do that. It basically holds 4 mirrors to catch two images on the same sensor slightly apart ~2.75" apart or so.


I started using photoprism. But their viewer doesn’t show my 3D side by side stereo photos. Immich brings a better viewer that gets out of the way and it also has multiple users. The immich multiple user accounts function a bit weird. My family photos need to be shared as external libraries while our phone photos cannot be shared unless you share accounts. They did some decisions around handling multiple users that is not fabulous. I used photoprism for awhile but just a few months on immich I can tell its going to be a better experience.


Photographers are the worse. They are still buying lenses from 1930 and all the decades between then and now. Just because glass still works regardless of how old it is.
So it’s got some fongus dirt…opens it up, washes the glass and puts it back together!
So its got a scratch or the fongus ate the surfaces… No problem! Now it has character! Need more character? Add jelly! Its great for porn! Oh, I guess its good for porn in many ways. Jelly.
HDMI adapter memory dimm card! That’s $45.99 all day long.
