‘Insert clipboard’s contents’ sounds like a fancy way of saying paste 🤷🏻‍♂️

That’s a great idea, thanks :)

You say you suspect that the camera is MTP, but have you tested it with anything else? It’s worth checking the settings on the camera too, to check what it’s set up to do when it’s connected to something else.

As you’ve said, mass storage devices work with Xiaomi phones, so changing the camera to mass storage mode should work too, and will just mean that you have to browse to the correct folder 👍

This sounds similar to how it works for me too. I closed my eyes to try this.

I saw a very rough version of the table that’s in the room with me. The table is a low rectangular coffee table with a coarsely threaded grey throw over it going lengthways, but I saw it as a rectangular shape with a vague grey top. The ball was featureless with no colour, and was about the size of my fist, so an adult man’s fist.

I saw a low quality arm push the ball, but I really struggled to picture it, and while I knew what would happen in real life, I couldn’t picture it happening in my head.

It’s strange, as sometimes I can picture things fairly well, but other times I can’t do it at all. I have very vivid dreams on the occasions that I remember dreaming, but I can’t close my eyes and picture my family. I know what they should look like, in the same way that I know what a rotating cow should look like, but I very rarely get any sort of mental image of them.

Ironically, I was in a coma a bit over a decade ago, and while I was in it, the dreams that I had were so realistic that it took me months to get things straight in my head.

This is all very helpful, thank you :)

Any Creative Commons license will require the festival to list a credit for your work. That might not be an issue for the app or website, but the festival might not be interested in listing “poster by Tippon, used under a Creative Commons 4.0 license” every time they use something you created on social media, in print, or advertising.

I didn’t know about that. I thought they might have to credit me, but didn’t know that it would need to be on the work itself. I definitely don’t want that. I hadn’t thought about third parties either. I doubt that anyone would try to rip us off, but I don’t want to leave that door open either, just in case.

I’m not overly concerned with future clients, as I’m medically retired and just doing this as a learning exercise. There’s a tiny chance that I might get future work from this, but I’m more concerned with not cutting myself off from using the website / app template if I was to fall out with the festival at some point. As you say though, I don’t want to leave either me or the festival open to having the content stolen either.

I’ve just realised that I need to double check how to handle third party images too. We have some local businesses who support the festival, so we use their logos as links on the site. If I include them in the repository, I don’t want to accidentally give them away.

I’ve got some reading to do! :D

This is a good point, thank you :)

I was thinking along the lines of not restricting myself from using my own work in the future, but I hadn’t thought about third parties being able to use it too. I’m not concerned about other people using the code behind the website, for example. I’m still learning, so it’s probably more spaghetti than anything decent, but @[email protected] pointed out in their reply, I wouldn’t be able to stop anyone from using graphics etc.

That’s brilliant, thank you :)

This is very helpful, thank you both :)

It was an air fryer for me.

I’m disabled, so I’m usually home alone, or cooking one meal for me and my kid. The oven takes about 10 minutes to preheat, and most things take 20 - 30 minutes to cook after that. The air fryer takes about half the time and doesn’t need me to turn things.

On top of that, I get memory issues, probably related to ADHD, and sometimes forget that I’ve got something cooking. The air fryer has a timer and switches itself off. I literally can’t burn the food and risk a fire. At worst it goes cold again 🤷🏻‍♂️

I’ve heard that it’s so bad that someone has to create accounts on lots of different federated communities just to create fake engagement about it.

They’re handy for conversational type questions where remembering previous questions is important, but that’s about it. That’s not usually important though, and can easily be accessed through a website instead.

It’s an Epson Stylus, 235w I think. I’m not home to check at the moment. It’s not amazing, but it scans at up to either 1200 or 2400 dpi, and I usually use 600 dpi, as that’s more than enough for the typically low quality photos I’ve got.

I’m sticking with it on Windows for now too, as the software can do some corrections with one click, like certain colour corrections. I’ve tried a few Linux packages, and while they’re good, they’re all missing something compared to the Epson Windows software.

I use Onedrive for storing files offsite, and a Synology NAS for onsite. I’ve got my PC as the main source of my files, and use Syncthing to sync to my laptop and NAS, and Onedrive syncing the PC and NAS to the cloud.

I know Onedrive isn’t always popular here, but it does everything I need, and is cheap. It also lets me access my files from my phone

This is why I’m scanning in all my old physical photos. It’s great to go through the originals, but if anything was to happen, they’d be gone forever.

I need something like a pressure only on the left side of my sternum on just two ribs.

Could you fold over some gauze and bandage it in place as a temporary fix? The bandage could be wrapped around your body to spread the pressure on the opposite side.

It wouldn’t be a permanent fix, but could help you to fine tune where you need the pressure without having to design anything, and would hopefully provide some relief while you work on something better.

Uncle Benned, or Obi Wan Kenobi Benned? 🤔

I don’t know, you can get Photoshop and Lightroom for £10 a month, which is very cheap when you compare it to a night out or a takeaway, and at the moment, they’re better than the equivalents.

I do need to have another look at DaVinci Resolve though. I’ve heard loads of good things about it, but it was overkill for what I needed when I last tried it :)

I think I sat next to him on the bus once

I can’t decide if that would be too sweet with the apple sauce base. That might have to be an experiment :)
