First scans are back. Not the strongest photo, but it's a start. Central Park, NYC.

@Gargron i heard the most beautiful music from right about where you took that picture. I love how your photo elicited that memory.

@Gargron Vision 3 250D is my favourite 🎞️ love the light & shadow work

New favourite channel: Chaotic Neutral. Here is a Call of Cthulhu scenario. Dominic Allen is an extremely talented keeper.

@Gargron cool! Thanks for sharing. And is that Angory Tom I see there? Bonus!

Eagerly awaiting film scans from my NYC trip to arrive...

@Gargron Are they like film-camera scans? Negatives? (I love photography)

πŸŸ¦πŸ§™πŸ»simp

@Gargron while I always leave development to experts I’m scanning the negatives on my own. It’s easier than you think and the quality (both by full-frame dslr and by negative scanner) is much better than one would expect diy

Eugen Rochko

The fact that you can follow the president of the United States (@potus) from your Mastodon account instead of being forced to have an X or Threads account for it is a huge W in my book. Of course our team is fully available to help if they'd want to set up Mastodon on whitehouse.gov. I believe governments should not rely on 3rd party platforms to connect with their constituents.

@Gargron @potus i think every mastodon should block Meta related every instance for privacy concerns. Or at least give an option to block such domains easily

jlo

@Gargron Yes but Meta (and the others) donate more so in return, they get β€œengagement” to sell ads.

@Gargron

This seems like a no-brainer. Fediverse for the White House.

Who is with me!

@Gargron @haubles truly a joy to welcome the folks who’ve made this incredible community and platform possible. There’s nothing like meeting someone for the first time in person after years of appreciating their work online!

@Gargron I'm reaching out on behalf of a dearest friend who received the heartbreaking news of a stage 2 cancer diagnosis.

In an effort to support them during this difficult time, I've started a fundraiser on GoFundMe. Your support, whether through a donation or by sharing the fundraiser with your network, would make a world of difference to my friend in need.

If you're able to contribute or spread the word, it would mean a lot. Here's the link to the fundraiser : gofundme.com/f/hope-amidst-har

It's an interesting image. Quirky pose but that's part of the draw. I find the face oversaturated and when I checked in an image editor there was a greenish color cast. Maybe my cheap monitor. ??

It does!

Reminds me of a photo I took of the bike of similar vintage that got me around the Irish village I was living in for several months. A kind of fond farewell and thanks for excellent companionship.

First scans of Silbersalz arrived. It's motion picture film (really, it's Kodak Vision3 in different packaging) developed in ECN-2. It is impressive how fine the grain is. But their lab processing time is much slower than I expected.

We've updated the rules of our flagship server mastodon.social today. Most are the same with some clarifications, but one rule is new: Content created by others must be attributed, and use of AI must be disclosed. Profiles that only post AI-generated content will not be tolerated.

@Gargron
"Profiles that only post AI-generated content will not be tolerated."

What exactly is such a profile? One whose every single post is an AI image without any comments? Or pretty much any account that specializes on #AIart, and to what degree of AI usage?

Ben Brockert

@Gargron How are users of the server supposed to know about rules updates?

Eugen Rochko

We've rolled out a new feature on mastodon.social. You now have access to notification settings and can decide who you want to get notifications from. Everyone else will be put into notification requests you can peruse separately. There's a fresh coat of paint as well!

The first bit sounds good, the second (the UI change) sounds ominous. I'll reserve judgement until I get to a PC though...

Being able to mute or filter posts that exceed 500 characters would be great.

Search is not good because it returns too many dissertations.
