The reason why they never had any filming in wooded areas in the original series is that the times they tried, no one could locate McCoy….
They had a hard time seeing DeForrest through the trees.
Fun fact: To keep production costs low, many Star Trek scenes were actually filmed on Earth rather than on location in outer space.
Visited my brother and his family today. He and his wife are heading up to Queensland, planning to stay for a week in their Renault Trafic van that's been converted to a basic camper with bed, storage, microwave oven, toaster and kettle. There are also rolled-up awnings on the rear and passenger side.
He's come up with a storage rack and ramp so he can carry his 1982 Vespa on the back.
The photo was taken with an iPhone 17e in RAW format with the Halide app, then exported from Photos on the MacBook Air. Then I opened it in Pixelmator Pro and applied the Super resolution setting. This increased the file size from 18 MB to 54 MB. I then severely cropped the image to get the attached pic.
@variablepulserate I turned my car off, then went to lock it and couldn't find the key fob. Tried Find My on the iPhone to locate the attached AirTag, it gave a quiet series of beeps. Went round to the passenger side to see if it had fallen between the seat and the door and then realised it had been in my trouser pocket the whole time.
Question on Farcebørk: “Can you solve this equation without a calculator?”
My response: “Yes.”
@variablepulserate She had already been running a tech company before the vision loss, that prompted her to branch out into the assistive tech field.
I’ve just has some sad news. A good friend and fellow tech nerd was found deceased in her home a couple of hours ago after not showing up at her workplace earlier. No suspicious circumstances, it's (at this stage) suspected she may have had a fall or some such. She was legally blind, with 10% vision in one eye only but this never stopped her from using various Macs, iPhones, iPads and other assistive devices and apps. She also headed a company that provided assistive services to others with vision issues. I'd been looking forward to talking with her tomorrow at a Mac User Group meeting but it wasn't to be, unfortunately.
Even though he had a successful 20 year acting carer in Hollywood….Ricardo Montalbán struggled to find steady acting employment after his role in Star Trek 2.
Hollywood is reluctant to hire ex-Khans…
@matigo I re-ran the test after quitting the anti-virus app. The multi-core score on the Neo increased by 8%. That iMac gets better than average scores for its type, probably because it has 16 GB of RAM.
