Going through one of my old tech boxes for things to recycle, I came across my old Chromebook, a Lenovo N21. This thing went everywhere with me for work and play for the later aughts, from 2016 to 2021. It ended up getting retired from work when I stopped having massage gigs to take it to, yay COVID. But the final nail in its coffin was when Google stopped supporting it with software updates. That’s a different blog post about expedited obsolescence, though.
Christmas 2024 pics were tagged and scanned in a timely manner, same month and calendar year even.
There’s something just so fun about the big pile of photos look. I had a bunch of spare film packs from the wedding that were expiring soon, so I went wild with the Instax mini. It was fun, but comparing the 2 formats makes me wish I’d had more square film, or picked up a wide Instax film camera at some point. Such small photos and the control of the Mini 12 leaves something to be desired.
Found some 2023 Instax photos I hadn’t scanned over the weekend, so rectified that situation.
The dates of some of the photos have been lost to time so they just get a general year date. Such is the case of non-timely review and archival. Don’t even want to think about the lost metadata / actual data from the box of family photos in my closet. A problem for a later Erik.
Okay I think I figured it out. Featured images threw me off. Turns out they’re not actually part of your post. But your theme can drop them at the top of your post for reasons. Now that’s just an image at the top and there won’t be any more duplicate image in post issues. Unless I change themes and forget to remove the featured images bit from the next one. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I’ve been trying to figure out how I want to publish what are basically my vacation photos. Quite literally the modern version of the slideshow. So, I embraced it, threw them all at iMovie’s auto make a movie feature and this is basically the result.
Here we go check out my vacation photos from the Big Island of Hawaii in this convenient 6-minute-long YouTube video. You’ll see some sand, some street art, water, whole bunch of trees, and way to many photos of our squinting faces because memory is fleeting and I didn’t always remember to wear my sunglasses.
