The #Fujifilm bandwagon is diverse: https://petapixel.com/2026/09/19/women-and-younger-photographers-are-behind-fujifilms-meteoric-rise/ Seems pretty obvious why: The cameras are smaller, lighter, and have really good ergonomics. Related

I'm going to come right out and say it: statistical extrapolation is *fine*. One of the most useful ways to understand the present and anticipate the future is to measure the things that happened in the past, find the correlations among them, and extrapolate likely future outcomes from those correlations. - If you'd like an essay-formatted version of this thread to read/share, here's a link to it on pluralistic.net, my surveillance-free, ad-free, tracker-free blog: https://pluralistic.net/2026/09/18/surprise/#wow-signal 1/ Related

Swedish open source developer; creator and lead maintainer of curl and libcurl, and a co-founder of the Rockbox project.
None of the Flock camera teardowns seems to specifically list curl as part of those software stacks, but as they run fairly stock Android installs it is likely that they too run curl. Related

Remember if you see someone take down a Flock camera no you didn't. Quoting @hypervisible.blacksky.app “The no-bill doesn’t legalize destroying cameras. It doesn’t cancel Flock’s OH contracts. But when a grand jury declines to treat smashing a surveillance camera as serious felony business, that signals something real about where public sentiment sits — and that tension isn’t resolving anytime soon” Related

Something most strong film directors have in common is that they can do all of it at a pro level - write, handle cameras, compose music, edit, create props, etc. It is only by getting into the details that you can develop deep enough taste to do great work. True in other work too Related

A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
