  • Recommendations for digitalizing old photo prints? and slides?

    Jump

  • Roughly, it must be a couple hundreds prints and, say, 400 slides?

    I don't know how many I actually want to digitize, though: I didn't do any serious culling yet and -critically- how many I want to digitize will depend on how much work/money is gonna take per print/slide.

  • Nice.

    Is this a crop from a fisheye? The lens distortion looks very unusual, with the stretched corners

  • startrails over the north sea

  • But do you see sea? (I don't)

  • Darktable is basically the only software I use so I can't really compare... it definitely does have a learning curve and it's quite technical (designed for nerds, by nerds), but (being a nerd myself) I find it rather natural to use.

    In a sense darktable is more a collection of modules bound together in a framework than a monolithic/cohesive software. On one hand, this means you have to learn each module separately; on the other, it also means you can ignore most of the modules and only look at the handful you'll actually use.

    Definitely do watch some tutorial to get started with darktable (if only, to understand the general workflow which modules you want to use).

  • Strage... I can clearly see pink both on my PC and phone (in the initial image, not this one).

    Did you export the photo using the srgb color space?

  • Sunrise (shot with 25 year old Olympus Camedia E10)

    Jump

  • Nice photo.

    You should work on it in post, mainly to remove that pink hue in the overblown area.

    Here's what I did with darktable (it's just a quick edit, but still an improvement IMHO):

  • messed up the colours in the process

    To me it looks like you may have applied some "vintage film" style, and that it doesn't go too well with a photo that is mostly shades of brown.

    Brown is really dark, unsaturated orange and we perceive it as a separate color mostly based on what other colors are near it, so it's not easy to work with in a photo where there aren't many non-brown elements.

    Also, I am personally quite fed up with the (excessive and ubiquitous) "vintage film" photos.. I think that's not the issue with this photo, but, still, it's a bias of mine so that might be part of it.

    I am slightly colour blind

    Even mild color blindness must be a real hassle for photography (well.. for post-processing, mostly). I wish I had some suggestion to work around that, but I really can't imagine how it must be.

    Anyway, don't let that slow you down! Color shenanigans are really only a tiny part of photography, and (I must say!) they are often the most tacky part. There are lots of greatly influential photographers that even chose to ditch colors altogether and shoot in black&white.

  • Attenti al Cane - Textures [Nikon]

    Jump

  • Nice one!

    IMHO you might have gone a bit too far with the post-processing (or camera settings, if it's a jpeg): to me there's too high contrast, too much red, and the exposure doesn't agree with the apparent lighting conditions (it seems like it's been shot in broad daylight but it also seems underxposed).

    Do borrow your dad's camera more often! :)

    How do I get the script manager back?

  • Question to *nix permissions

    Jump

  • You got some great answers already :)

    Let me just add that, in general, it's expected to have executable files inside your home directory.

    For example, ~/.local/bin is intended for user executables and usually added to the $PATH, and a lot of package managers (such as cargo, go, pip,...) will install applications under ~ (Steam also does that).

  • Open source real time voice changer app for making phone call

    Jump

  • I must say, this is really creepy.

    In your shoes, I'd put some effort into explaining what (legitimate) use case you have, least people won't be much inclined to help.

  • Is there a way to de-google a smart TV?

    Jump

  • Basically, the only way is to disconnect the TV and use it as a dumb screen. Lineageos supports a few set top boxes (see here).

    I heard (take it as hearsay) that some smart TV periodically capture screenshots of what's on screen and upload it, so it actually disconnecting the tv from the network could (again, hearsay) make a real difference.

  • What's more important to you a free internet or your Internet privacy?

    Jump

  • It’s no secret that we trade our information for access to the Internet.

    I pay a monthly subscription for access to the Internet (actually two: one for the landline and one for my phone).

    So what do you prefer a subscription based Internet with privacy protection or a free internet with companies allowed to take and sell your data

    Either one would be better than what we have now, which is not free and not private.

  • How do I map "caplock to escape but shift+caplock = normal caplock", like Gnome has?

    Jump

  • I don't use that so I'm mostly shooting in the dark, but.. does caps:escape_shifted_capslock do what you want?

    (source: localectl list-x11-keymap-options | grep esc)

  • EU Possibly Emerging As One Of The Greatest Threats To Privacy

    Jump

  • The title is missing a second part: "after China, the US, Russia, the UK, etc.".

    I get that privacy is potentially in danger if chatcontrol passes (ie. it's not right now) and that to raise awareness is worthwhile, but misrepresenting one of the best places privacy-wise as "one of the greatest threats" is just dishonest.
