canbus··on Bitwarden: Free, open-source password manager
I swapped from Lastpass when they introduced the "single-device" restrictions for free users. Bitwarden has worked flawlessly since.
canbus··on Autofocus on a Pi – ArduCam's new 16MP camera
I agree - I have a D600 myself and still use mine occasionally, Nikon's backwards compatibility is great! I am equally impressed by the AI manipulation by modern smartphones and their ability to take handheld shots that say a 10 year old APSC camera (with a huge sensor comparitively) might produce a blurry mess with. That being said I don't really know what modern APSC cameras can do nowadays!

I think that opens up a discussion about sensor size not being the biggest factor in image quality and whether it's worth it or not in practical terms to have a large sensor. Personally I have found that my full-frame DSLR gets a lot less use than my phone with a sensor size that is a fraction of the DSLRs! Yes, artsy bokeh shots/low light photos (although this is subjective due to recent developments with smartphones) are easier to take with a larger sensor, but I almost feel like they're going obselete now at least for every-day use.

Quite easy to read the MCU text with the autofocus camera, with the others not so much.
canbus··on Burn My Windows
Bragging about wobbly windows was the best thing ever. I'm glad I'm not alone!

haha, ditto, wobbly windows were awesome, and the geared cube

compiz effects are probably one of the main reasons why Linux interested me so much growing up, and why I now work in tech!
canbus··on Homebuilt pickups: How underage teens skirt the law to drive in Sweden (2016)
Viva la Redblock.
canbus··on How to develop black and white film at home with coffee (2019)
Cool. My dad and I have taken up film photography fairly recently, myself using a Nikon F55 which lets me use all my digital lenses, and him using an old Kodak Brownie that he grew up with. He had a heart attack about a year ago and shooting on film seems to give him a nostalgia trip that calms him down. Strangely it does the same for me too. We'll have to give this a go together!

so is cyanide!

I like the poster that says "this is a natural product" as if it's good for you or something
canbus··on Making the dislike count private across YouTube
Cool, now I can't dislike a video, instead I'll just commment "this video sucks" on every video that I don't find useful.

Surely this change doesn't solve anything?

canbus··on NixOS on Framework Laptop
What are your thoughts on the 9550? Personally I think it is the worst laptop I have ever used. The battery life was abyssmal, the graphics card constantly had issues. At one point plugging anything into the USB-C port caused sparking..

The worst bit was how loud the fan used to run.. if it had spun any faster you'd think it would start hovering.

canbus··on Do Dev Careers Die at 35?
Depends exactly _where_ you are as a Dev. In the science industry I have mainly worked with people who are much older than myself (23), to the point where I'd say I am the outlier.

Stackoverflow is not the centre of the internet either.
