Y’all. I bought myself a macro flash as my own going away present and look at this. First damn pictures I took.

@Viss @jerry Yep, looks like you have a nice setup, now look for cute tiny bugs on flowers :)

More light + stop-action effect of flash = sharp macro photos

@tomjennings @bluGill @pluralistic @liaml And then you have weird stuff like the F1 engines that are essentially turbo-compound because they extract additional energy from the exhaust with an oversized turbine wheel that is captured electrically. Too complex for the consumer market. Can I please just have a $25k EV Civic with reasonable range? 100-150 hp should be plenty, no need for “silly mode”.

Feeling rather cranky at Shark for assembling this vacuum with tamper-proof torx T10 and T15 screws, some of which are recessed so I can’t get a bit driver in them. Symptom is the brush only runs at low speed. Switch seems ok, one contact to brush unit powered at low, and a second one on hi. But I have to get into the brush unit to proceed further 🙄

When in doubt, don’t be a tool-using animal, be a tool-making animal 😎

Some sort of single engine flying ideal for lovers of UFOs or any other paranormal stuff.
Also usable by normal people too.

@Ailantd The Fiat 500 of UFOs, that's great!

I'm imagining a little row of pedestals with cupped tops for parking.
