Polarion. Wouldn’t recommend it but it’s what my employer wants me to use.

For personal stuff, I use a private MediaWiki instance (same software that runs Wikipedia) as my external brain.

There are 36 million Ukrainians. I doubt you’ll find any property that they all have in common, except for being humans.

For me, the key was finding a regular time during the day when I do the lessons. That’s why I recommended you do it during the ad breaks.

Learn a language. Ad breaks are long enough for one or two lessons in Duolingo and probably other apps as well.

Asklemmy is not a support community, you might have more luck in photography related communities.

That being said, you basically answered your own question. Your integrated flash is either stuck or blocked. Hard to tell without seeing it in person. You might try to help the camera by carefully pulling on the flash while holding the flash button (on the left side of the camera body). Maybe there is some dirt trapped in the hinge. If you can get it open (please, please, please don’t break the hinge), try carefully cleaning it.

But here comes the kicker: the integrated flash on most cameras is absolute garbage and I’d recommend you just disable it. There is a reason why high end cameras don’t even have an integrated flash. An integrated flash is 20-30 times smaller than even the most basic external flash so it makes extremely hard shadows. (Edit: also, you can’t modify the flash brightness and the flash is so close to the camera body that you may see the shadow from your lens in your photos) If you can afford it, buy a cheap external flash (I’d recommend one from Yongnuo) and a mini softbox that you can put on the flash. It will make your photos A LOT better for not that much money.

If you’re interested, I can dig out my old 760D and take some comparison shots between internal flash, external flash without softbox and external flash with softbox.

Ah alright, then they must have changed it since I last added a new app. The last few years I just published updates and they all went through almost immediately.

I doubt that. From what he said somewhere on Pixelfed, the beta is only on Android right now and you don’t need approval to publish something on the Play Store. From personal experience, apps appear within a couple of minutes. On iOS, the usual approval time would be 3-4 days.

For those who want the old tabs back: under settings -> appearance, you can set the ui density to compact (sorry, can’t tell you the exact name, I have my system set to German)

I would say I miss some specific people or groups, both on Lemmy and on Mastodon, rather than generally “more” people. Friends of mine, certain people I used to follow on Twitter that haven’t made the jump, some communities about specific hobbies, that sort of thing.

Overall, I enjoy the fact that I can get a rough idea about who is who instead of interacting with a mass of faceless strangers.

• Some places show me the same ads over and over, sometimes even back to back. No, Super Car Insurance 2000, I wasn’t interested the first time and I’m not interested the tenth time. I don’t even have a car and showing me your ad again won’t make me buy one just so I can get your insurance.
• Telling me what I can save without telling me what it costs. Number 1 offender is Hello Fresh on German podcasts. Apparently I can save 150€ on my first three boxes… which makes me wonder in what world the regular price can still be a good deal. Groceries are expensive but sure as hell I don’t spend that much on dinner alone.

When reading a long text, disconnect from the internet as soon as it has loaded so you don’t pay for the time you spend reading.

• Canon EOS 6D Mark II: my main camera for studio, on-location and travel photography
• Canon EOS 760D (Rebel T6s): my old main camera, now backup when I need more than one
• Canon EOS M200: for 4k video, clean HDMI output and day trips when I don’t want to pack heavy equipment but still want a nice lens
• iPhone 12 Mini: any time I don’t have a proper camera with me. With an app that shoots raw images, this is still really good.

I do a lot of stuff from proper “artsy” studio photography to disco photography to travel stuff, mostly as a hobby. My favorite quirky thing is to include fox plushies in my photos: https://social.helios42.de/@dfyx/111765301186111247

My parents split up when I was in my 20s. They both moved out of the house I had grown up in. My girlfriend and I stayed and rented it from my dad, planning to buy it from him as soon as we were financially stable enough to get a loan.

Fast forward a few years to me having a well-paying job and my girlfriend almost being done with university. Things were looking really good. On my 30th birthday, my dad abd his new wife suddenly started pestering us about the house being too big, too expensive, too whatever for us to the point of ruining the whole evening. A week later I got a letter from him, telling me I had six months to get the money or get out, strongly suggesting the latter. Never even got a reason.

I wrote most of my Bachelor’s thesis and parts of my Master’s thesis to nothing but Watch the Skies from Skyrim on loop.

Sprachspaßwort sounds like something straight out of a law or industry standard which I guess that makes it heterological.

Orphan Black if you like mystery

Filezilla itself is not the problem. Deploying to production by hand is. Everything you do manually is a potential for mistakes. Forget to upload a critical file, accidentally overwrite a configuration… better automate that stuff.

Same in Germany

Wrong community. This is for open ended questions and discussion, not for asking for help.
