Rescued some camera gear.
It was a Pentax ME with a set of lenses. It was found in an attic with no info. Not working was the tone.
Collected the camera and the lenses.
After close inspection, the thing that kept the camera from doing camera stuff was,.... A pair of batteries inserted the wrong way.
Today I replaced the mirror damper.
Let's put some short Fomapan 200 inside of it.
Prendendo spunto da un discorso di @salvadorbs sulla situazione di com'è l'internet oggi.
Sono l'unico qua che ha nostalgia del vecchio sito della Nintendo? Quello ancora nel periodo della Wii e del DS.
Quel sito dove entravi e, sfogliando la lista di giochi usciti e che devono uscire, andavi a caccia della pagina dove potevi trovare o dei minigiochi o una piccola preview/demo dei giochi DS/Wii da provare Online per darti una piccola idea di cosa potevi aspettarti.
In #Mahāyāna #Buddhism the #bodhisattva ideal shifts the goal from personal liberation to universal #awakening. Liberation is not escape from #saṃsāra but compassionate return through #bodhicitta, where #wisdom (#prajna) and #compassion (#karuna) act together for all beings. In this post, I have composed a short overview of how the bodhisattva, from #philosophical foundations to #ethical significance, has shaped the trajectory of Mahāyāna practice:

The Bodhisattva: Mahāyāna ideal of compassion
What does it mean to be free? In early Buddhism, liberation is portrayed as the final release from saṃsāra, a cessation of craving, ignorance, and rebirth. But Mahāyāna Buddhism reimagines this freedom in a radically relational way.Fabrizio Musacchio
I think Windows is trying to gaslight me, my mouse speed is all wrong even though none of the settings changed.
Maybe it's a sign I've slipped to another dimension. A dimension where the only difference is that mouse pointers move and statesmen die a little faster.

The image features a black background with white text, presenting a news article about a nationwide referendum conducted by Australian university students on the Gaza conflict. The article highlights the significance of this student vote, comparing it to historical anti-apartheid campaigns. It mentions the referendum's call for censuring the government's role in the Gaza conflict and urging universities to sever ties with Israeli weapons companies. The text also references ongoing tensions between Israel and Australia, including Prime Minister Anthony Albanese's plans to recognize the State of Palestine at the United Nations General Assembly in September. The article concludes by noting the growing student-led campaign for Palestinian solidarity and its influence on institutional policies and national discourse. The source of the report is Al Jazeera, with Danielle Robertson reporting from Sydney, Australia.

Das Bild zeigt eine stilisierte Illustration einer Hand, die nach unten zeigt. Die Hand ist detailliert gezeichnet, mit hervorgehobenen Linien und Fältchen, die die Hautstruktur darstellen. Auf der Hand befindet sich ein roter Fleck, der auf eine Verletzung oder eine besondere Bedeutung hinweisen könnte. Der Hintergrund ist in zwei Farben geteilt: rot auf der linken Seite und blau auf der rechten. Unter der Hand steht in großen, blauen Buchstaben das Wort "HOPE" (Hoffnung). Die Illustration hat eine retro-Posterart, die an politische Kampagnenplakate erinnert. Oben im Bild ist ein Profilbild eines Mannes mit Sonnenbrille zu sehen, und daneben steht der Text "xennialfarmer" sowie "Mike Block · Vivaldi's Winter 1".

#GAZA La présidente du Comité international de la Croix-Rouge dénonce les plans israéliens pour une évacuation en masse de la ville de Gaza. Elle qualifie l'idée de "non seulement infaisable mais incompréhensible".
#Gaza
Je me permets d'ajouter la source : le communiqué de presse du #CICR qui date d'aujourd'hui, samedi 30 août 2025.
Le texte qui suit est une citation attribuée à la présidente du CICR, Mirjana Spoljaric :
" (...) Une telle évacuation entraînerait un déplacement massif de population qu’aucune zone de la bande de Gaza ne serait en mesure d’absorber, compte tenu de la destruction généralisée des infrastructures civiles et de la pénurie extrême de nourriture, d’eau, d’abris et de soins médicaux." (...)

The tendency of American cultist consumers to follow fads like lemmings off a cliff is going to make this as prevalent as plastic slip covers once were. The only good news is that you'll always know a cultist's house when you walk in. #politics

There were already two new gravitational-wave candidates today – so far.
S250830m, if real, most likely came from a merger of two black holes 12 billion light-years away.
ℹ️ gracedb.ligo.org/superevents/S…
S250830bp, if real, came either from a merger of two black holes (84% probability) or from a merger of a black hole with a neutron star (16% probability). The distance is “only” 1.4 billion light-years. The sky position could be determined quite accurately (to within 10.5 square degrees).

I really dont understand how people can be so heartless and live their lives without empathy and compassion for others, when every single day, whether one realizes it or not, we all need help in some way every day, and some of us need lots of help, and sooner or later we all need lots of help, yet so many, most go everyday willfully ignoring the pleas for help from those in need.

Dopo il suo ritorno alla Casa Bianca, lo spazio più rappresentativo di Washington ha subìto una trasformazione che dire pacchiana è poco: tra dorature, bandiere extra e un tocco in stile pseudo-Versailles, l’ufficio presidenziale somiglia sempre più a un covo dei Casamonica.🤦♂️

Meghan Trainor beglückte die Welt 2014 mit „All About That Bass“. Ich komme euch mit „All About The Feed“. Und ihr freut euch darüber sicher. Tut ihr doch, oder? ODER? Nein, ich bringe nicht die drölfzigtausendste Auflistung, was ein Feed ist. Ich nehme mal wieder an den #BlogWochen2025 teil. Und da geht es nun einmal diesmal darum, dass die Feeds halt nun mal wichtiger sind, als viele denken. Es gibt ja auch jede Menge Blogger, die denken, dass der gute alte RSS-Feed sowas von letzte Saison ist. Ist er das?

Zwei Tage nach Eröffnung des neuen A100-Abschnitts in #Berlin musste dieser wegen zu hoher Verkehrsbelastung kurzzeitig gesperrt werden.

@catarinac mas não são os comentários do PR português que o vão travar.. A nível europeu deve haver quase unanimidade (excepto Hungria) nessa opinião, um único líder torna-la publica apenas vai trazer sarilhos para esse país.
PS: a não ser que o Marcelo saiba que o rumor do falecimento é real...
