One of the things I appreciate with the GR IIIx is that the RAW-files are more or less exactly the colors I see. They are so much closer to my reality than any other camera I’ve tried.

Started the day with a 3h train ride from #Aberystwyth to Birmingham, then 8h of flying and waiting. Now 9h on the train before getting back to #Umeå. At least I get some kind of appreciation of the distance. And going by train is much more “humane” than traveling by plane

Soon time to leave Aberystwyth

Aberystwyth

My take on Threads: since I live in the EU, I don’t have to care == 👍🏻

Aberystwyth

Yesterdays surprise, getting on the train and realizing that it’s a “diesel train”. Apparently it’s been too long since I went abroad the last time.

The students have gone home, and the staff is on vacation. Everything is very quiet.

Things are getting interesting. I stopped using Facebook several years ago because … well, Facebook. I also stopped using Twitter because “recent events”. I’ve only used Reddit via Apollo and since Apollo has shut down I don’t see myself using Reddit anymore. I don’t watch TV that have ads within the programs because I find it highly disrupting. I can’t stand podcasts that have the same type of ads, but I do listen on podcasts where the ads are relevant and presented in good way. Now, it looks like I might be reducing my YouTube watching a lot in the future, if they enforce this “max 3 videos if you don’t watch ads or pay premium”.

I’m not really complaining, I’m just noticing that things are changing and my behavior is going to change (more time to spend on other things). These companies absolutely have the option to do this, and I have the option to not join in.

And before you go “but the content creators, shouldn’t they earn some money?” Yes, they should and that is why I’m supporting some of them directly.

Sigh, I’ve started to see how people are posting AI generated photos claiming they are real photos. 🤦🏻‍♂️

I thought we were going for a walk but apparently we were going to the beach
