I'm super excited - a fully functional 1949 Leica IIIC in a very nice condition with a Summitar f2 is on its way to me.

When a leader speaks that leader dies

You won't have to follow me

Only you can set you free

You gave me fortune you gave me fame

You gave me power in your God's name

I'm every person you need to be

Oh I'm

If you have an Audi/SEAT/Škoda/VW made from 2013 onwards, check the coolant expansion bottle for the label 'G13 mit silikat'.

This means that a 'silica teabag of death' is fitted to your cooling circuit.

Book it into a specialist, NOW, get it removed, and get the remains flushed/pipes replaced.

Open back of a 35 mm film SLR camera, the Minolta α-9 (Japanese model; known as Maxxum-9 in North America and Dynax-9 in Europe) showing a partially loaded roll of Ferrania P33 black and white film on the left, the film leader stretched across the film gate toward the take-up spool on the right, with the camera’s rear door open and electronic contacts visible; a green-and-black braided strap lies in the background.

First roll from the new batch of P33 loaded in the Minolta α-9. I notice that the film cartridge is red now. I keep praying that nothing else has changed. 🙏
The weather should be sunny tomorrow, so I’m hoping for scenes with good contrast.

Interstellar travel is impossible and aliens haven't visited Earth, physicists say “There is a silence in the night sky that has bothered me for as long as I can remember. ” Richard Feynman’s reflection lingers because it feels personal.

Another truth most humans are just to dumb to grasp.

Once I get done with this whole Medalist II journey I may yet have to write a rare blog about it simply because there's scant hands-on examples of using it with the accessory backs out there. But in the meantime, I'd be hard-pressed to cover the basics better than Eckman:

🧪Frances Arnold was a single mom of 3.

That didn’t stop her from doing pioneering work that would eventually change biotechnology.

Her method of directed evolution created enzymes that
had broad implications in industry.

She was the first American woman to win the Nobel in Chemistry in 2018.

They all do this. And it feels like a reflection on the humans behind them, whose inflated careers are built on never admitting they don’t know the answer. The ‘smartest people in the room’ if ‘smart’ just means glib and facile, turning out lies with complete conviction.
