Anime Wong (elliptica@poa.st)'s status on Tuesday, 26-Dec-2023 11:53:00 JST Anime Wong @WashedOutGundamPilot At least the seller in this case is honest about the cameras, but that won't stop someone from selling it a second time as a real one, even by mistake.
What I really enjoy is the irony here. A clone of a camera, which was only produced as revenge against Germany, re-brands itself as though it were from Germany. -
Anime Wong (elliptica@poa.st)'s status on Tuesday, 26-Dec-2023 11:38:30 JST Anime Wong I just learned Ukraine mass produces fake German WWII cameras.
The story is that a Germany company (Leica) during the 30's designs a really popular range-finder camera. After WWII (I think) the Soviet union ends up with the facilities of that company. The company moved to West Germany and started over, and the USSR mass produced copies of their cameras, since they had all the machines needed to do it, but they weren't as good as the originals. Lots of other companies got in on this too, including big names like Nikon and Canon. I think the company might have restructured itself after WWII, and so there was no one to complain about clones, or no way to enforce it.
A lot of these cameras ended up on Ebay, as "cheap Leica's", for people who wanted a Leica experience without spending hundreds of dollars for a 90+ year old camera, and the most common were the USSR Zorki clones.
Now there is someone in Ukraine, who is rebranding them as Leica cameras, along with insignia's from the time. They are honest that they are Zorki's, but the strange thing is they don't even look like the cameras they are supposed to be mimicking.
For instance, the first photos are of a Zorki clone of a Luftwaffe Lecia, and the second are of a real Luftwaffe Leica.
What I find really strange (or maybe funny) is that all of these altered cameras come out of Ukraine. -

Anime Wong (elliptica@poa.st)'s status on Monday, 25-Dec-2023 04:13:43 JST Anime Wong @DEERBLOOD @DW2 It's a pattern of behavior among them, isn't it?. -
Anime Wong (elliptica@poa.st)'s status on Wednesday, 20-Dec-2023 17:29:57 JST Anime Wong @hellhammer666 "I have to let everyone know everything I see is good. Taste is abstract, so I can just say "it's good" and no chud incel can challenge me on it. If I keep telling myself it's good, then I'll like it eventually. I'm not farming twitter for interactions, I'm really just a bundle of joy that loves everything new." -
Anime Wong (elliptica@poa.st)'s status on Tuesday, 19-Dec-2023 07:32:42 JST Anime Wong @Shadowman311 They've been doing more than just CSA monuments. Adding to a list of things I've noticed, I recently discovered mountain in Colorado (Mt. Evens) was renamed because the mountain was named after a Governor who was in charge at the time of a massacre of Indians (which was condemned and the person responsible for it was charged and forced to flee out of jurisdiction). I really should try to compile everything that's been changed or renamed over especially silly things, because the pattern is obvious. They want to erase Europeans from the fabric of America, and to do it they dig for any minor disagreeable thing as justification.
The question is, who is it that's looking up the names of minor mountains in Colorado, or news articles about a boulder placed on a university, or the names of asteroids, or the minor political affiliations of random scientists from 100 years ago? -

Anime Wong (elliptica@poa.st)'s status on Sunday, 17-Dec-2023 12:15:26 JST Anime Wong @deprecated_ii @DEERBLOOD @Terry @theTDC What I mean is people without personal skin the game. Getting paid is a huge motivator to not screw things up or screw people over. When you are not paid, you don't really feel like people aren't counting on you, or that you can't get fired. When they all think they're the "next Hitler", being at the bottom and having to follow orders from some other guy causes people to but heads. -
Anime Wong (elliptica@poa.st)'s status on Sunday, 17-Dec-2023 12:11:19 JST Anime Wong @DEERBLOOD @Terry @theTDC It's infinity frustrating that no one can properly organize to fight back against this shit regime.
It makes me wonder if part of the problem is that everyone involved is too invested in it's success. Like, what they really need are non political people to get work done. People who are only there for a pay check. -

You must destroy monsters in their hand, you must up to three monsters in their deck. The use of conditions passed the first act seems strange. -

Everything sounds like an option. You can choose to look at their hand, if you do you can choose to destroy monster with a certain attack value, your opponent can choose to destroy strong monsters in his deck.
It makes me assume that Yugioh would be very popular with lawyers. The wording is oddly precise yet also convoluted. -

I was looking at a lot of those cards recently, and they make me feel retarded, trying to understand them. -

Just write "I want money please? I am good at working, and would like to work so I can have money." -
