WTF is wrong with these racist assholes?!

Many people seems to praise metal reels like you do, I will buy one at some point but I can’t imagine loading a soft or curly film without the help of a ball bearing …?

Like what prevents it to slip backwards ? How to avoid touching the negative surface with my hands…

Think about a metal tape measure. Its a long piece of floppy metal, but can stand nearly straight when held horizontally for many feet (or CM). Its because the metal is curved. When loading the film you do the same them. You hold the film at the edges and squeeze it a bit so it has that same curve as a tape measure. The metal reel is slightly narrower than 35mm film so the film goes in easy when curved, but when it gets to the binding point in the reel it expands out becoming wider, where it gets "caught" by the edge of the wire reel.

Its been a looooong time since I developed my own film (which was also black and white), but from my experience, the plastic reels were always worse than the metal reels. I always used something like this and it worked very well. Little difficulty getting it on the reels in the pitch black dark.

I had to practice in daylight a couple of times with prior with developed (or scrap) film, but once I got the technique it was very easy to replicate in the dark.

Hamilton is the only one in that poster that doesn't look happy to be there.

There's no UMD disks in the picture for that PSP. So you've only got the one game thats in the unit.

That video of the question was taken at the Williams Fan Event space right on the Las Vegas strip in front of the New York New York casino. It was cool to see live, but would have been a bit nicer if it hadn't been raining.

Here's my picture from it:

Hydro isn't. Nor is solar photo voltaic, wind, or tidal, but yeah, nearly everything else is. In a combined-cycle natural gas or diesel plant half of the power generated isn't steam power, but the other half is.

It also put Sainz in the top 10 in the Drivers championship. So both Williams drivers are in the top half in the Drivers Championship, and Williams as a team is in the top half in the Constructors championship. I love how great they are doing this year, especially when they are running their 2024 car!!

The lemmy instance you choose (for example, you chose .ml) to join will have its own tone, flavor, rules, politics. You will find instances that are left, right, and center. Additionally you will find some that are VERY far-left or VERY far-right. If you are finding the tone for the lemmy community (equivalent of reddit subreddit) different that your position, it may be because its hosted and moderated on an instance with that particular bend.

You may also experience some judgment from others because of the instance you are coming from as it can communicate some of your positional bias. Some users have chosen to relocate to other lemmy instances once they get an understanding of what ideas live where.

All of that said, while lemmy and the fediverse has a much smaller userbase than Reddit, it is so much nicer here. My last post to reddit was over 2 years ago, and every post I hear about how bad it is getting over there confirms this is the better place here.

Make sure to introduce contradictory posts. That way you'd divide the audience along ideological lines and foment infighting.

Should I be concerned these steps come so clearly to me?

So I've never read all the QAnon "drops" but I know they exist. Wouldn't it be trivially easy to feed all of them into an LLM, and then have it generate Q-like "drops" that look authentic? Then, post many "drops" all over the conspiracy theory sites under different pseudonyms. Since they are built from the read Q drops, and conspiracy theories are mostly bullshit anyway, wouldn't they be impossible to discern Q "official" messages from LLM garbage/hallucinations? Wouldn't this effectively DDoS the conspiracy theories?
