I walked over 6 miles just at this event before Midnight …
I have a lot with Tim talking but the video editing from my phone means that those are going to wait. Meanwhile - high speed walk-through! (Yeah the text is more a match for Instagram & LinkedIn instead of here but I feel like I’m going to botch something trying to customize for 1 platform ATM.) RE:
It’s interesting (good and bad) to see what all fails when trying to work on an event real time and your internet is overburdened cellular. Like these videos are not going to upload to the editor … it just flat out isn’t. The montage maker is useless if it doesn’t live more on my phone.
I think I kinda always looks tired anymore? Drove through hail to get here though so maybe that’s why today. Waiting for Tim to change clothes and then I’ll do more walk-through. https://shiitake.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:tbr4cunn6r4hox73ybzjfwt3&cid=bafkreibw6lwqzrw52bxfepmc73z342d3cs672yp337r2a6whhpnsl2d3ra
Camera bag not going to get here before I need to leave so reconfiguring things. Also there's a pretty serious storm headed in so I'm calculating that too now for the drive.
Have been really hopeful for the Instagram API since it's not tying ALL business account activity to ONE personal facebook page BUT .... Error 400. I now have run into it with 3 SMM platforms on the IG API option only. It's not the VPN causing this either. https://shiitake.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:tbr4cunn6r4hox73ybzjfwt3&cid=bafkreibpduuk2wnu3yranxcsq3jonjysfzv7dqwhs7zveuvefkn7rg4bvi
It is Oaks day 🐎 and I'm hoping my order with a camera bag arrives before I need to drive to Louisville for the evening festivities. My laptop bag can serve as a camera bag but it's ~5lbs on it's own & I'm not sure I want 8+hrs of that plus the camera & battery weight.
Google honestly isn't letting me "make available offline" properly w/ everything anymore. I really think I've seen a major downgrade in Google quality in the last few weeks. I shouldn't have to go online and download the file and then re-upload it. It's ALWAYS sucked with adobe files but still.
Federal grants might be .... you know ... right now but there are some grants still out there. Akron, Detroit and Miami: [knightfoundation.org/challenges/k...]( ) Explore the rest of their site for more (this one showed up in my inbox today.) [Open Call: Knight Art + Tech E...]( )
Just pulled together a whole Oaks day outfit from what I had previously bought. But now I have to figure out what I’m supposed to be capturing, what camera equip I need to take & what the heck I’m carrying that in when I’ve done a bad job of buying bags because I usually know someone at the bar.
