The annoying: Sam’s Club is apparently using AI to create official product pics. The horror: AI made Little Debbie Oatmeal Crème Pies into tacos. 😱 (Hat tip to Reddit. Verified in Sam’s app. This is image 9 of product.)

Getting better! This was 2 hours of 10 second exposures. This time I adjusted the colors and shades in Gimp. Next time I'll see if there's a way to change the framing. Stacking was done internally on the Seestar for this image.

The potato shaped moon of Mars, Phobos, as seen by ESA’s Mars Express. Its grey, covered on craters, 2 enormous ones that occupy nearly a third of the visible side, along with long grooves etched into the terrain. In the background, a tiny far away Saturn appears in a yellowish, colourised view, adding contrast without exaggerating the planet’s size.

Oh wow, I'm so incredibly shocked and surprised. I wonder what the reason could possibly be.

Trying to raise money for a rescue dog. So visit my shop if you can afford it. I’ve got lots of light up holiday trees too if you want to plan ahead. Surly.etsy.com

Thanks. Actually I'm in the city of Janesville. The Seestar does really good cutting through it. Of course it seems to work faster/better in dark conditions.

A quick 30 minute capture of the Andromeda galaxy from my driveway tonight. This is a target I'll be going after for longer in the future!

The snickerdoodles were a recipe from America's Test Kitchen so they were fantastic. The chocolate chip ones were my family's recipe and they are also pretty good if I do say so myself 😋

A very nice old man gave me a couple of old and rare/expensive computers a few years ago and all he wanted for them were cookies. I made him chocolate chip and snickerdoodles. He was eating them in the yard before he even got to his door to put them in the house 😅

Here's my first attempt at the Pleiades star cluster. This is the first time I was able to capture any nebulosity. Of course my previous attempts were not using the right equipment.

Well, I drove back home and the sky is clear here but there are trees everywhere so no view of the eastern horizon. Not all is wasted. I'm gathering light from the Pleiades using my Seestar.

Awesome time at the Green Bay Halloween themed @wiscomputerclub.bsky.social pop-up museum! Sadly, I didn't get as many photos as I thought. I took a couple of these from our reddit account. My display was the RCA TV and Studio II, the iBook G4, the SNES with Mario Paint, and the Sega Master System.

If you use a modern Apple computer its lineage can be traced back to this computer. I’ll have it set up for you to try this Saturday in Howard, just outside a Green Bay, WI.

I got this wonderful care package from some amazing folks in Wisconsin. Yes, these are honest to goodness ketchup chips actually sold in the US! I am shocked! Maybe these can make their way to Oregon stores? Hello "BIg-Chip" companies, are you listening? @graffias79.bsky.social

I may have have heard it somewhere, but I probably wouldn't remember it if I were to listen to it on purpose it. I usually listen to the stuff on Studio 54, Utopia, or 1st Wave on Sirius.
