I wonder if youtube buffers the ad in the background as you're watching a video. That could explain why your actual video buffers but the ad plays just fine.

About 3 years ago, I was looking for emeralds at a closed emerald mine when I had the brilliant idea of hitting a random rock with my pickaxe. Turns out the rock was harder than the pickaxe, so a piece of the metal broke off and flew into my finger. I was 10s of hours away from any hospitals, and the metal curved around the bone of my finger, so I had to take my dad's camping knife and cut the thing out. This was at a camping spot, so I had running water, but it wasn't easy.

Aren't pretty much all storefronts searchable, or is it a Europe thing?

I shop primarily local and find stores with ddg/Google/Google maps. I live in a country where Amazon doesn't exist, and shipping takes at least 3-7 days, so I've always bought stuff from local stores. Of course not everything is sold in a physical store, for which you'll probably have to use ebay.

I keep forgetting that some people need vpns to torrent.

 

She's taking a sip from the water used to wash the paintbrushes, while standing in the paint.

 

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

Original Post

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.

Edit: Coasters and fridge magnets acquired

The green one says "white wannabes"

 

I've tried posting an h264 mp4 file from a webserver i own, and I noticed that most clients fail to load or outright crash when trying to open the post. Some give an "invalid MIME type" error even though "video/mp4" is a valid one. Posting the link as a hyperlink works, but then you don't get a preview. So what's the best way to share video on lemmy? Is it youtube/imgur or am I doing something wrong?

 

I was going on a walk and chose to take some photos of my local air traffic control radar. Also found this buddy, but couldn't take a good picture as i was being eaten alive by mosquitos :)

Both photos were taken on an old Nikon D5100 and edited in adobe photoshop. (adjusted the colors slightly)

I'm on vacation in paris, so I thought why not take some photos. Also here's my obligatory eiffel tower pic:

Both are shot on my phone in RAW and then edited in lightroom mobile
