We watched "Late Night with the Devil" (2023) tonight. I posted a #5SecondMovieReview of it earlier. We enjoyed it.

However... one little thing about it is nagging at me, like a splinter in the mind's eye.

It's a period piece, set in the #1970s. The major thread of the story includes a psychologist and her sessions with a patient, which are #recorded. Part of one is played back as part of a #television show, and onscreen during that #playback is an open-reel (aka reel-to-reel) #tape #deck playing a tape.

1970s, open-reel recording - it's #retro, it's #cool, it's period-authentic, right?

I can't shake the feeling that whoever put the visual together has never actually seen an open-reel tape recorder in operation. This picture is lousy, because it's a screencap from the movie, which is supposed to be showing a television broadcast in good old analog SD - but it gets the point across.

See anything wrong?

The takeup #reel, on the right, turns clockwise, the opposite direction of the (normal) direction of the supply reel. So the tape wraps onto the inner side of the takeup reel, and ends up "inside out".

There's also no tension arm on the supply side, and an apparent #tension arm on the takeup side, but it's not actually in the tape path.

I don't think any machines were actually made like this, but I'm not an #expert. Can anyone identify the deck they butchered or digi-simmed to create this #sin against nature? 😉

Mal eine Frage an die #Nextcloud #Deck Nutzer:

Ich habe ein Board angelegt und dieses mit einem anderen Nutzer geteilt. In dem Board mehrere Listen mit mehreren Karten.

Einige Karten sind für mich und andere für den anderen Nutzer zugewiesen.

Der andere Nutzer sieht nur das Board und die Listen, aber keine Karten. Eine Karte, die er angelegt hat, kann ich aber sehen.

Was mache ich falsch bzw. wo ist mein Denkfehler?

Looking to add some relatable flair to your card collection? These playing cards are a must-have! I mean, who isn't feeling a bit anxious like an Italian Greyhound these days? 🐶 Each deck even comes with a handy plastic case to keep them safe from wear and tear. Head over to our stores for some fantastic deals!

#Nextcloud #Deck: Grandios. Man kann über die UI Decks exportieren aber nur über die Console importieren. Das geht bei Hetzner nicht.

Also von Hand.

Ich wünschte mir manchmal, jemand ginge durch die Kern-Apps und sorgte dafür, dass alle Grundfunktionen vorhanden sind und auf die gleiche Art funktionieren:
👉 Alle Apps haben andere Export/Import-Funktionen.
👉 Alle Apps gehen unterschiedlich mit App-Foldern um.
👉 Manche Apps können Federation, andere nicht.

Wouldn't it be nice to visualize and explore S2 cell hierarchies for a given point on an interactive globe, I thought...

Here's using .gl's S2Layer on a @maplibre map.
Turns out quite useful I think, but there's still some work to be done to fully support globe views in Deck.gl (github.com/visgl/deck.gl/issue).

Code for this:
