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? 😉

A screen capture from a fictional television documentary featured in the movie "Late Night with the Devil" (2023). It shows an open-reel tape recorder (aka reel-to-reel) with a tape loaded on it. The scene this is taken from shows the playback of the tape. The tape unspools from the left-hand supply reel counter-clockwise normally, but the takeup reel on the right-hand side turns clockwise, with the tape passing to the left of the center axis of the reel. I'm not aware of any decks that actually work this way. There are other oddities too, like no tension arm on the supply side, an apparent tension arm on the takeup side but which is not actually in the tape path, and various other weirdnesses.

#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 #Deck.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:

I won't touch your calendars and I run your instances.

This fucking motherfucker right here.

Feature Request I can't check something of my calendar?
No.

Only time I have ever heard David swear: Kanban sucks. Fuck kanban. This isn't how you build projects with any sanity.

Until that big is fixed #Nextcloud #Deck will continue to be worthless.

Upside, I can get it from occ from the CLI.

Can't remove items from my task list.
