3rd time I am grinding down this birchwood board we cut all our bread on, since I made it 13 years ago. Used 600 paper for the 1st time...always thought it was too much, I usually stop at 320. How high do you go for your kinds of wood?

Most of the things I make are ash, willow or birch, and I've always thought there won't be a tangible improvement beyond 320 grinding paper. But the 600 really was amazing...where do you stop?

Fullscreen YouTube in Opera for Android has recently given me lighter squares in the upper part of the screen. Why? Can I turn them off again?

I tried this so you don't have to: A timelapse of only clouds at a 90° angle.

Clouds rolling by are often absolutely essential to landscape and object timelapses, like this one:

Without clouds, it often gets boring. So, today, I tried to take it to the extreme. This is only clouds. Not even at an angle, just looking straight up.

Eh, well, I guess it makes me some sort of car sick. No need to do this twice, I guess.

[Samsung A54] People who actually watch dashcam videos: Do you prefer the one with the meta view from the dashboard, or just a clean dashcam clip?

Going slow + no spatial awareness + wanting to drive mid-road = bad combo

She drove past me again when I walked from the car at my destination. Head deep in her phone, truck driving wavepatterns mid-road. Damn phones.

Vannkraften herjer...memefiserte følelser fra ett av mine yndlingsturområder

Her i Sandelva i Samnanger har det lenge vært planlagt kraftverk. Det kom en traktorvei på slutten av 80-tallet, kanskje, og nå bygges det et kraftverk gjennom dalen. Jeg har ikke sett på konsesjonen som tas med her for ordens skyld:

https://www.nve.no/konsesjon/konsesjonssaker/konsesjonssak/?id=7006&type=V-1

For meg handler det mest om følelser. Dette er kanskje den vakreste, lyseste furuskogen i hele Bergensregionen. Vannet som renner i Sandelva er så utrolig klart, at utlendinger vi har tatt med hit endte opp med nesten bare bilder av vannet. Det er magisk på vinteren også. Vi gikk her mye med småbarn.

Jeg vil tro at anleggsveien med en bredde av opptil tre fylkesveistandarder vil bli tilbakeført. Men akkurat nå er det ille. Mye sprengstein full i plast, en del har falt i elva, utvasking av sand, grus og andre materialer. Inngrepet ser brutalt ut.

Likevel er vannkraft kanskje den beste, mest miljøvennlige krafta. Vil tro vi trenger den ekstra energien. Men, akk, så ufyselig det ser ut hver gang en elv blir tvunget ut av sitt habitat.

Where are the gems at?

I started watching K-dramas with CLOY in 2019 and there have been so many amazing shows. Good K-dramas were the #1 reason we went back to Netflix after a long hiatus from that service.

But...there are so many bad ones. I start a show and they remind me of telenovelas. Then there's stuff like "Boyfriend on demand" - I forced myself to watch almost 9 episodes, but the main characters have the chemistry of a stone and a stick.

So many shows are just bereft of ideas. They feel mass produced and absolutely not genuine. Lots of slow walks and clichés like snow and falling cherry flowers.

So...where are all the good dramas at? Like CLOY, Rookie Historian Goo Hae-ryung, Hometown Cha Cha Cha and all that?

Gymnosporangium clavariiforme (Uredinales, Pucciniaceae) shining super bright on a juniper.

The bright orange/yellow in a forest is really uncommon here at the Norwegian west coast at about 62°N. A clear sign to everyone: Don't eat me!?

The white balance on this one is absolutely borked...no way to save it, I guess? Love how the ferry goes back and forth and the rain going South here. I also listened to recent feedback and did not speed it up too much, akin to Reddit's 20s attention span...

I want to create a QR code for people to scan off a poster. Has anyone here ever done that before? Would you recommend any of these apps, or just use some kind of webservice? How reliable are these?

The tail end of the season also translates to using the tail end of whatever snow is left. Love to zigzag between the emerging rocks and grass.

På en supernydelig tur til Bergsbukken på Berge i Bergsdalen torsdag kom jeg over disse dyresporene. Hva er det?

Polished the car, these scratches look as bad as before. Are they too bad to polish away?
