How I manage my photo workflow, a tiny 🧵 :
First of all, I shoot in JPEG. If it's not good enough for a JPEG, it's not good enough for a RAW. Not amount of data will ever recover a totally burned area.
So after I transfer my files to my computer, I open Rawtherapee, an open-source equivalent to Lightroom.
My first step is to select all the unblurry/correctly exposed pictures using a 1-star rank. You can also color-label your pics, but I find the star system more handy.
After a first pass, I filter on the starred pics and I unstar the worse ones until I have a number of pictures I'm comfortable with. Usually around 15 pictures per model. Removing pictures hurts, but it's less work down the road, and nobody wants a dozen identical shots.
Next, let's process one picture by double-clicking it

Experimental Piefed support is now available for Voyager
I'm excited to announce that Voyager now has experimental support for logging in with Piefed! You can try it out today on:
This will roll out to the official app stores and vger.app soon(tm), once I’m confident there are no major regressions. If you prefer not to switch to beta builds, just hang tight.
Please note that Piefed support is EXPERIMENTAL! There are still many things that don't work quite right, which I'm hoping to improve over the coming weeks.
The basics including scrolling home/all/local, viewing posts, blocking, commenting and voting should work well. However there are some known issues:
- Can't sign up for a Piefed account in-app, only log in with an existing one
- Subscribed communities list is empty (should be fixed soon!)
- Inbox tab doesn't load
- Comment search doesn't work
- Profile upvoted/downvoted doesn't load
- No moderation tools
- Mark as read doesn't persist
- Creating/editing posts is currently untested
- ...probably a bunch of other stuff too, please let me know below!
Behind the scenes, this interoperability is made possible thanks to aeharding/threadiverse, a new library I am working on to normalize various threadiverse-software APIs. It's open source so any project use it, but it's under heavy development right now. What's cool about this is in the future, adding support for mbin, or whatever else is possible!
Again, feel free to try it out and let me know if there are any more issues to be documented and fixed.
Yesterday I merged in a PR that lets the instance admin set the sizes for thumbnails.
But the real issue is that the thumbnails have a variety of uses - in the PieFed web UI thumbnails are shown quite small so 170px is fine. But some mobile apps might show the thumbnail in a manner that spans the whole screen which is going to need to be at least 350px wide.
I'll make PieFed generate a 500px version of the thumbnail and include that in the API response (as well as the smaller one).

On multiple levels, ‘green’, ‘renewable’ energy dams devastate freshwater ecosystems and biodiversity. “While they account for less than 1 percent of the Earth’s surface, freshwater ecosystems are home to more than 10 percent of all species,” Josh Klemm and Eugene Simonov wrote for International Rivers. “Hydropower dams are a key culprit in the rapid 84 percent decline in the populations of freshwater species experienced since 1970."

in reply to nixCraft 🐧 • • •I would disagree. The current drawback with AI is that there are no physical concepts to represent the symbolic language it is expressing. A square is a square. The word "square" is a symbol.
We're currently asking AI to infer meaning to something which, to it, is meaningless. You get the same response from children who grew up with Minecraft instead of an abacus. It's why Common Core was invented. To a lot of modern kids, math is alchemy, 1 mysterious symbol + another = a third.
