Hey y'all, today I experienced another push for Linux from our friend Microsoft. 5 minutes ago, I wanted to use the timer app on Windows, so I could manage my work/break schedule, and this fucker showed up. Yes, that's a prompt to sign in with a Microsoft account to use the clock. If you close it, it pops up 30s later. Clicking “Don't sign in” or closing the process responsible for displaying it is useless, and guess what… IT PAUSES THE TIMER WHEN IT SHOWS UP.

I guess this is another thing added to the super long list of things which will eventually make me switch my main workstation to Linux once win10 is discontinued.

Hope y'all are having a great day :3

I got this picture from my mom who was painting. The cat is head first into the container she used to wash those paintbrushes, and standing in the paint

This time i set up my old dslr and a tripod for the shooting, and i shot 70 30s frames. It seems like there's a problem with sharpness, but im not sure if its because i lack a star tracker, the lens was slightly out of focus, or because of atmospheric wobble.

Here's some behind the scene images:

The camera is a nikon D5100, a low/midrange camera from almost 14 yeas ago mounted to a cheap tripod. The white box on top of said camera is the battery which i made from 2 old powerbanks because im a cheapass and couldnt be asked to buy a proper one :)

I saw the nothern lights too!

Here's another weird collection of videos

I took about 30 raw 30s exposures from my phone propped up on the roof, stacked them with deep sky stacker, and I'm impressed at the result.

This poor laptop drive was serving me well as a jank storage pool on my Nas for almost 8 years now and today it died.

Jeg har lagt merke til at de siste årene, når en butikkarbeider spør meg om jeg vil ha kvittering, og jeg sier "nei takk" så får jeg den allikevel. Er det en greie at de fleste hører "takk" og antar jeg vil ha kvitteringen, eller er det sånn at de må alltid gi kvitteringer til kunder?

Jeg har alltid sagt nei takk til kvitteringer, men de siste årene så har det poppet opp en trend der de bare gir meg kvitteringen selv om jeg sier nei.
