lmao we’ve had opposite experiences! i bought 2 old-ass polaroid land cameras that were perfectly functional, and took probably 50 pictures on each of em before the prices on fp-100c film started creeping above $1 per shot.
the impossible project continues to make type 100 film, but they currently charge ~$50 for THREE shots. for context the discontinued fp-100c filmpacks come in 10 packs and would run you ~$100 today. upsettingly high, but STILL CHEAPER than the modern replacement :c
i’ve happened into SO MUCH vintage audio gear this exact way hahahah
if you can’t keep your entire music collection in the player, what’s the point?
you can occasionally find these at goodwills or on ebay for like $70, 90% of the time they just need new belts for the carousel. they even have a special port on the back that lets you daisychain two of em together and share outputs, AND they read home-burned cd-text. it’s a physical media pirate’s dream machine lol
320gb hdd I had laying around that would otherwise just collect dust due to it’s miniscule size.
i put a 512gb drive in a thinkpad less than a decade ago and thought at the time “boy this might be overkill”
and now i can get 2tb on a fucking microsd for a cheaper data/cost ratio than i did back then, wild.
If you did it with someone else’s photo and THEY said it was doxxing, I think I’d be inclined to side with them. Since it’s your own photo I reckon you get to decide whether or not it’s doxxing.
I’d hesitate to do it myself, but I send a lot of lemmy posts to my friends, who are very intentionally not all equally apprised of my interests/identity lmao
It physically hurts me to see so many other people loved the PSP as much as me, and we’ll never get to go back.
ah yes, “The Cheater’s OS” as us linux-heads like to call it
Make sure you don’t skip any of the goof ass noir/comic book cutscenes. Some real fucken bangers in there.
you thinking like, mini hdmi port directly in the chassis? or just an hdmi to usb-c adapter in every box?
also have you seen the aftermarket screen upgrade? it looks great, but apparently the (already kinda slim) battery life really suffers. I’m still very tempted hahaha
People online will also upvote blatant racism and 9/11 truthers and shit. I’m eternally grateful communities like this exist where we can talk about how fucken stupid people can be, and all feel a little less crazy. Who the fuck seriously says “hag” anyways? I’m glad I’m not that dummy.
You’re beautiful by the way, I’d be intimidated to talk to you irl hahaha
well if that isn’t just the sweetest thing I’ve read all day! ^^
This is like, the place to go for hair care. Your hair is already really pretty by the way! Getchu some CG approved products (this can help with shopping), find a routine that you can mesh with, and you’ll be surprised by the results ^^
I wish I could help with other stuff but I’m just a little AMAB eggy boi who gets away with having girl hair. I love helping people with hair tho, it’s such a minor thing but can be SO transformative!
oh hey!! if you ever have any hair questions or just wanna chat btw, pm me! ^^
I think starting a sentence with “For those like me” is a pretty clear indication that someone is speaking for themself
e: i’m just being catty btw, it’s a totally fine use of the phrase
Ahhh exciting!! I hope the waiting goes quick
The lil wavies that are already visible are SUPER promising. You’ve got a beautiful natural curl! As it gets longer it’ll start to drape more regularly under it’s own weight, and it’ll be easier to style once there’s more of it to work with.
The washing/conditioning methods in the CG doc will help bring out/emphasize your natural curl pattern. I went from kinda wavy hair to actual ringlets, and your hair looks wavier than mine was when I started!
And the great part about CG is you can tweak your results, there’s no one singular “ideal” end goal! It’s like a community of curl-scientists constantly running experiments and sharing their findings.
e: i think my instance is fucking up, sorry for the spam!
YES, I was hoping that link was the CG doc!! This is the way!
Also consider asking your barber what kind of hair you have (thick, fine, voluminous, etc.), bc it can make a huge difference on what it needs. For example using conditioner as shampoo (co-washing) does amazing things for some people, but it can cause scalp buildup in thicker hair.
SheaMoisture is my go-to brand. Their conditioner is so concentrated you almost have to water it down, I keep an empty bottle around and do 50/50.
i forgot those later filmpacks had batteries, golly what a boondoggle! at least polaroid is making em first party again, maybe someday it’ll be an affordable medium lmao
