I attempted to plot a bunch of types of cameras on a cartesian plane of fashion coolness vs photography coolness.

Any changes or additions I should make?

Maybe 8 years ago, I thought I should make a spreadsheet to keep things I want to share (with individuals or on social media, for example) so that I don't share too many things too quickly.

I included a timer so that, if I didn't add anything new, I'd have a year worth of sharable content and thus never appear to drop off the map.

Well today I have hit 365 things to share. Congrats to me?

What easily-typeable do you default to for ≠?

I'm starting to think that the intro/extroverted breakdown is not actually useful but I can't seem to put it to words

Movie recommendation: **Gran Turismo (2023)**

Based on the true story of a kid (19 at the beginning) who was good at a racing simulator game and got picked to be trained as a "real" racer.

(Don't watch the trailers, it gives away too much of the story.)

I used to think "confirm email" fields were dumb.

But the number of times I've seen people do the likes of @hotmaol.com…

My enjoyment of staying home and my desire to go places so I can take photos of different things do not jive well

Fun linguistic fact: the Dutch word for "lawyer" is "advocaat" and that word shares the same etymological root as the English "advocate". Is that not perfect or what?

Bonus related fact: there's also a (delicious) brandy-based drink sold in 🇳🇱 called advocaat and one of the theories behind the name is that it was originally called advocatenborrel, or "lawyers' drink"
