I appreciate that Duolingo focuses on topics and phrases that are useful in everyday life.

ChatGPT and other AI services are basically killing @Iconfactory and I'm not exaggerating or being hyperbolical.

First Twitter/Elon killed our main app revenue that kept the lights on around here, then generative AI exploded to land a final blow to design revenue.

I've recently gotten into "alternative process" printing. I built my own UV exposure box and have started with cyanotypes (the easiest, cheapest, least toxic alt-printing method). Are there any good photo printing/alt-printing hashtags/accounts I should follow on the fediverse? (Boosts for visibility are appreciated!)

We use these signs at the museum when we pull a specimen from exhibit for study.

Someone on my staff attached this one to my office door. That’s the kind of people I hire, apparently.

Hello! This is my first post on #pixelfed, so I should probably write a bit of an #introduction.

I collect random negatives and photographs I find at thrift stores, antique shops, garage/estate sales and online. (There is no specific topic I focus on... just anything that catches my eye.) Then I scan them, sometimes do some minor restoration (though damage can also add character), and now I'll post some of them here.

It probably goes without saying, but I am not the photographer of anything I post here. In most cases I don't know who the photographer is (or even exactly where/when the photos were taken). I just think it's sad for interesting images to rot away in a box somewhere... or end up in a landfill.

For this image, the photographer, location, and date are all unknown. It was scanned from the original 35mm Kodak Gold 200 film and minor restoration was done (scratch/spot removal).
