During FOSDEM 26 there was a talk about FreeSewing, a site where you can adapt clothing patterns to your specific sizes.

I can not stand the DLP projectors, so I got an Epson 3LCD, and have no issues with it, not crazy expensive either.

It is also possible to define `.PHONY` multiple times, so you can simplify this to:

  .PHONY: something
  something:
      ./do-something

  .PHONY: something-else
  something-else: something
      ./do-something-else

  create-file:
      ./generate-some-output > $@

ffmpeg works really well for this. I have also been making time-lapse movies for over a decade, starting with using just Quicktime Pro 7 to combine the images into movies. Later using various other tools. Now I also use ffmpeg, and want to keep track of exactly how each movie is put together so looked for a way to script each movie. Now I use ffmpeg-python (not a lot of recent updates, but just works) to steer ffmpeg, with my own time-lapse specific Python package https://pypi.org/project/time-lapse/ to assemble the movies, and for each movie I have a single script which describes which frames are part of it and how they are combined into a movie; https://github.com/153957/time-lapse-scripts I am quite happy with the setup, making it easy to recreate movies in the future from source, but at higher resolutions or different codecs.

So this is just a digital zoom (crop) with Super Resolution™-like (machine learning) upscaling...

Similarly I recently switched the other way. I recommend Lightroom over Capture One. The subscription is a slight downside, but Capture One is similarly expensive if you want to keep up with the latest version, I know you don't have to, but if you do it is expensive.

Moreover Capture One is missing some features which Lightroom has: The ability to filter collections based on their name. A shortcut for 'increase/decrease rating'. Filter photos for 'x stars and higher'. Show all images in a folder, including those in subalbums/subfolders. Being able to mark photos with a 'Reject' flag/rating (and easily hiding, not removing, those).

For a project where I worked on we offered streaming TSV responses and always finished the response with a last row containing a comment: `# Finished downloading.`. Since we also managed one of the client packages to access the endpoints, we check for that when the download is finished and raise an error if it is not there.

I get mine from http://louie.world/wallpapers/

A bunch of wallpapers related to specific movies or Disney, with various variations or themes per movie/series.

This comment on ArsTechnica on the same subject links to some videos which have nice explanations for the videos: https://arstechnica.com/science/2020/04/navy-releases-three-...

Basically lens flare, balloon, and a plane.

drop support for all versions of Django prior to 2.2

Prior to 2.2, so they encourage keeping support for the Django 2.2 LTS.

Great website which I used many times to check the precise species appearing in photos I made. Unfortunately the project seems to have stopped updating over 9 years ago (if the news page is a good indicator).

Recently I discovered ffmpeg-python [1], also a nice Python frontend to FFmpeg. One of its best features is being able to show nice graphs [2] showing where which filters are applied from in to output. And all FFmpeg filters can be used, it is a thin layer over FFmpeg, just much more readable.
