    A great trick for Garmin watches is that they make some high end models with sapphire glass. Get one of those used and you have top of the line stuff for a reasonable price, yet the glass never scratches so it will look like new...

    Some quick feedback:

    The two things that draw my attention are the person looking away and the black blob in the top right. The black blob mostly feels like a distraction. The person is not well lit and almost hard to see compared with the almost over exposed foreground. There's a lot of interesting stuff in the picture but kinda mixed messages for what to focus on with the parts in focus being so dim.

    I would try cropping much tighter around the subject and see if you can find a stronger composition.

    Kvarn är ett bra sätt att förbättra kaffet, dels får du färskare kaffe och dels kan du variera hur fint du maler för att justera in smaken. Blir det för surt, testa mala lite finare. För bittert: testa mala grövre.

    Kan rekommendera Wilfa WSFB-100S, maler jämnt och bra och har goda inställningsmöjligheter.

    Until a couple of months ago it was illegal in Sweden for a restaurant owner to allow spontaneous dancing if they did not have a dancing permit. Since July this year they don't have to apply for a permit but still have to notify authorities about arranged dancing.

    The small board that was above the numpad has all the smarts for the whole keyboard, so I had to follow the traces it was attached to and find a new location to wire it in at. Luckily the big PCB I cut in half is pretty simple so I could just visually see where everything went and run a new wire there.

    Both Ducky and keychron have some prebuilt with hotswap. For example the Ducky One 3, you could get it with Red Silent switches and if someone really hates the feeling you can just get new switches and swap them out.

    It does the job, but this lens is right at the limit of what it can do, especially with the guide scope as well. I also have the counterweight kit.

    It's not super precise, some adjustments have a bit of play so it takes some finessing but it can produce pretty good results.

    I haven't looked into is there's something better out there now however.

    Yeah, it can be pretty expensive. Some tips:

    • figure out if you want a photography kit you can also use for astrophotography or something more dedicated to astrophotography like a telescope you can put a camera in.
    • camera equipment is a lot cheaper used.
    • A lot of deep space objects are most visible in infrared, a camera without IR filter can capture this but wont be much use for anything else.
    • the old astrophotography reddit is a great place to learn about equipment tradeoffs as all photos are posted with equipment details. Makes it easier to learn what you can realistically capture and what requires 10x your budget.

    It depends a bit on what equipment you have, but at least with my gear I don't see much even on individual 100s exposures until I post process to bring out what was captured.

    I think it depends on what client you use. I haven't seen it in any Lemmy app but you can find Lemmy users with a Mastodon client and add a note, so I guess it's up to the various clients to implement.

    Two things help a lot:

    • Tracking, either with a proper telescope mount or as I did, a star adventurer. You align it using the pole star, then it rotates the same speed as earth, counteracting the rotation so the sky stays in the same location relative to your camera.
    • Stacking, even with tracking I typically dont get longer than 1-3min exposures. So instead take multiple and stack the images in software. This image is 14x 100s exposures.

    But, even without any of those, I've taken images of the Orion Nebulae with just a tripod. It will be a lot blurrier and noisier and generally worse, but its pretty cool to see it show up anyway.
