But how often does that really happen?

Or is she more the paper kind of person?

Cycling to the film lab every week will get my endurance up quite a bit, I think. So much downhill on the awy there that I barely have to pedal — it’s a 5-minute ride in smooth traffic from the university — but on the way up, it easily takes me 20 minutes.

Still, I don’t feel as bad as I did last time, so that’s a nice improvement. Should also be a litlte more bearable as the weather gets cooler…

Scared the absolute shit out of me, and this is doubtless one of the disadvantages of a ground-floor flat: someone just knocked on my window. Twice. Not sure what they wanted; I obviously didn’t acknowledge them. They wouldn’t have been able to see who I was, given my thick veil curtains. Hope it’s just someone who’s having problems getting home and not something more sinister…but the concierge is open 24/7 and is literally next door…

With imagemagick installed, convert -quality 60 *.jpg output.pdf is excellent.

Huh. It seems that making an Automator app to take images and output a single PDF takes less memory than opening 300 individual images in Preview, cmd-a, export as PDF (which makes 300 individual PDFs).

/rreply 71623 Indeed. Preview took my entire system to a halt by hogging 32GB of memory — I thought I only had 16! Unbelievable.

I’ll never understand why it takes Preview on a Mac Pro so long to convert 200 PNG files to PDF. 4k resolution. Hardly demanding work.

Indeed…I’ll never understand people who make it hard for others to give them money.

Oh my…
