• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Actual theft ⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Can’t tell if it is for the ad-girl. But I have to mention, that - ACKSHUALLY - this is not happening because of the focal length, but because of perspective, i.e. the distance between camera and subject.

  In order to achieve the same framing on a subject, like the dude in that GIF did, with different focal lenghts, you have to adjust how far away you stand.

  So for practical purposes, especially for portrait photography the focal length kinda forces you to do that, but it’s not the cause of perspective distortion.

  You could achieve the same effect, by taking the sameish picture with a wide angle lens and moving away from the subject with each shot and then cropping the foto to get the framing/field of view to fit the first pic in sequence. Of course you lose resolution and image quality that way, so it’s not recommended.

  Dunno. Most of that collection I just got from a friend.

  Seems like having the data just once in a folder is more space efficient than redundantly storing it in every single file’s metadata. I mean, its just a few kB each, but even that adds up.

  And also there’s sometimes not just the cover artwork for an album, but also back-cover, an image of the disc itself and the whole booklet.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Moisturize me⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Does that also work for the album-art images I have in my mp3-collection? Or will it ignore the music as well?

  Isn’t that the water that’s inside my Alkaline batteries? It must be good to energize the body.

  I support this as an opportunity to improve on my very shallow knowledge about the icelandic language.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why are people using the "þ" character?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  and it is lower-case only

  More unsolicited German facts:

  ẞ, that is the upper-case version, does indeed exist and has been official since 2017.

  That being said, it’s pretty uncommon, and mostly only typography nerd use it, but I just couldn’t let that slide.

  The thing is fruit/vegetable is not a category in botany. Fruit exists, and it kinda has that definition, that it carries seeds, but that doesn’t serve to distinguish it from vegetables.

  Fruit/vegetable is a culinary distinction, rather than a scientific one.

  They got the formula wrong.

  Half your age +7 is the correct one. Works surprisingly well.

  I always thought it was more like overloading, but namespaces are also a good analogy.
