A few years back I read through Ruined by Design which is about this exact topic, and I'd highly recommend it if you want to keep digging. The author also has a great video essay, "Fuck you, pay me" which is also a 10/10

Ever wonder how furry conventions decide when to ban someone? I wrote a blog post that explains how the process works. www.dmuth.org/so-you-think...

So, You Think Someone Should Be Banned From A Furry Con
A practical guide to reporting safety concerns at conventions: what evidence helps, what doesn't, and why convention ban decisions are more complicated than many people realize.

I got a lot of funny answers to that question starting around 2016 and then figured it was more trouble than it was worth.

If you're handy the guide doesn't look too bad, but be very careful around the ribbon cables. I fully killed a Canon 5D I was trying to fix by tearing one, although that was a much nastier repair than this one would be.

I found a working x-ray machine on marketplace for $250 and I just think it would be an incredible bit to bring my own x-ray to the doctor.

No hate to my doctor's office, it's the system, but, "if symptoms come back you can get an ambulance or go to the ER" is why every ER is slammed all the time.

LongTailLaser @longtaillaser.bsky.social · 04/02/2026
I go through the doctor's once a year and if I'm conscious I ain't going to the ER. If I'm calling outside that once a year visit, "we can get you in with an NP in a couple weeks" is not great.

I get the math, but zone plates still seem like straight up wizardry to me. If you're contact printing Id just build an array and give up on the collimated part, although you might lose a bit of sharpness. It works for exposing silk screens. Parabolic reflector feels like a good answer too.

Diode, optional pinhole, fused silica lens assuming your definition of "bright" and "collimated" isn't too strict.
