That’s actually a genius prank. Now I just need to find a spaceship…

I wouldn't trust oracle with a 6 user blog about the family dog, much less this...

What are those?

You don't understand where the right's issues come from. They aren't formed from a set of ideals and principles, but from the wims of billionaires.

Backing in with a backup camera is easier, and pulling out forward is much safer. Once in a parking lot I nearly started backing out when a child dashed in front of my camera/rear bumper and I was disturbed by the possibility of what could have happened in another timeline.

As someone who wants to use Kotlin or Scala, is there another way to get around these two? Coming from .NET or NPM I found both of these to be terrible.

I'm fine with bots posting news articles, but there are other communities I'm seeing that are basically 100% bots now and it is just annoying to see.

I am unsure just how revolutionary this feature is, though I am definitely interested in trying it and can see it's value. I've somewhat gotten away from Jetbrains, but I do still use and promote Rider for C# development so this is potentially a nice addition for my professional life.

Is this something you want to run manually or automatically? If you want to run automatically either look into dotnet service workers, or run the console app with a crontab.

You can use https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/tools/dotnet-publish to create an executable. Then you would just transfer the resultant files, or file if you publish as a single executable file.

Firstly, consider spending some time with your phone camera. There are apps that should allow you to manually adjust ISO and shutter speed. Most phones aren't going to have good RAW support or allow aperture adjustments, so you will need to focus on a specific set of things. Read or watch videos on artistic ideas like composition and color. When I was first getting interested in photography I did this for about 6 months just to be sure it actually held my interest long enough to justify spending money.

I would recommend reading this:

Personally I would pay attention to the Sony and Fujifilm lineups. If you need a bit more portability then also consider Lumix and Olympus/OM.

I would recommend avoiding the RF(Canon) line for beginners due to the limited and expensive lens selection. I say that as a Canon R6 owner.

Do you think the people who built these platforms are teens? I'm a 27 yo engineer and Marxist through and through. Just because workers unions of the past were overturned by tyrants and capitalists alike, doesn't mean the basic ideas weren't sound. The system in which I am forced to participate in is fundamentally flawed.
