  • I wasn’t even in a super remote place or anything; just right on the outskirts of Reykjavík: 64.162710, -22.014917

    Probably could have been even more insane if I had gone a bit more remote. But if you ever plan to travel to Iceland, I’d recommend to go during a time you can see it, and give it a shot! (I went in early October, seemed like a pretty good time for photography, since it seemed like it was golden hour lasted like half the day)

    I didn’t see this one, but when I saw it in Iceland (in a dark place with limited light pollution) , it was taking up basically the entire sky and was glorious. I actually thought it was MORE stunning than any photos I’d ever seen, especially because it’s a way different experience when it’s in motion and everywhere. It was actually the event that convinced me to get a nice camera, since my phone “long-exposure” shots were so shitty haha.









  • As a software developer who has worked with a lot of symbols and emoji… PLEASE DON’T DO THIS.

    Software doesn’t all handle these symbols the same way, and without tech knowledge (or even with) , it’s very possible to not be able to log in easily. I’m kinda drunk rn, but I’ll try to explain as simply as I can…

    For example… skintone emojis are actually two characters, a face and a skin tone modifier. I think those ones are always two characters but some of these “multi-char” characters can be normalized into a single character. But not everyone handles this the same way. For example, Safari might normalize the emoji, but Firefox might treat it as two separate characters… And this would probably make your password not match. But basically… text has lots of edge cases; I’d advise to use normal passwords please (also maybe a password manager)
