Exploring Myself
Exploring my sexuality and my beliefs. Unsure of who I am, but trying to figure it out. For those that care about this shit, I’m a Spoonie: Chronic Lyme Disease, Narcolepsy, Chronic Pain, Depression, Anxiety, suspected OCD and no doubt other issues, but hey I’m working on it. I have a lot of health issues. She/her for those that care. I will occasionally post 18+ stuff, so fair warning. Want to learn many languages, get better at math and drawing as well. In truth, I want to get better at many things. Love learning, trying new things, a big scaredy cat, and trying to get back on track with life after illness. I love stories and will talk about things I like here. As well as things that annoy me. Not perfect myself, nor will I proclaim to be. Others don’t speak for me and I don’t speak for others, i am my own person. Labels are boring at the end of the day. Congrats you made it reading this far, hope you have a good day, even if you disagree with something I shared or said.

Why I dont trust Big Pharma or the CDC.
I have not trusted them with how the CDC since I learned how they treat those dealing with lyme disease. Then with learning about the Tuskege experiments and so many medical atrocities in history, and in US alone, why cant we question?

Got distracted and I converted an old camera to full-spectrum, making good on this post.
It's an old Canon SX110 IS, mid-range point and shoot from around 2008. My main pocket camera is a descendant of this.
didn't get a lot of photos of the disassembly because i was hurrying a bit (which hurt me later, we'll get there) but disassembly was surprisingly smooth. A few adventures with supplying power to the lens motor just to get it to retract fully but nothing big. Managed to get the filter out with minimal fuss.
It's a tiny piece of dichroic glass that was sandwiched in the sensor assembly. Most cameras have at least one basic filter to cut out UV, IR or both.
Here's some comparison photos after removing it: It looks like these otherwise black mousepads are made of an IR reflecting material, glowing purple under ambient IR, which is different from the black powder-coat of the desk, which seems to absorb near-IR just as much as visible light. I wonder if that's so that modern infrared based mouse sensors can see better. Probably!
Reassembly was where things got messy: I didn't notice the motor control ribbon get disconnected and so I futzed around a while before I solved that, and putting that in involves removing the mainboard from the chassis. I forgot to plug the mainboard back into power when I reassembled it, and while jiggling some connections I tore through the ribbon cable that connects the shutter, power, and mode control group to the mainboard. Fuck ribbon cables, all my homies hate ribbon cables
Fortunately, I can still get the thing to power on by shorting some easily accessible bare copper on the board (which is how I got those verification shots), and the part that got damaged should be easy to replace: all I need is a donor camera. There's someone selling one on Marketplace for a reasonable price, and I'll put out a call on the local used tech forum as well.
Next steps would be finding some Visible, UV and IR filters so I can select particular regions of the spectrum, and probably a couple band-pass filters for looking at vegetation and so on. With an adequate filter setup (maybe I'll get a filter holder printed) and the CHDK firmware mod for this camera, I'll be able to stick it on a tripod and capture some of those dreamy snow-white foliage pics all the infrared photographers love so much.
This was a pretty finicky operation so all in all I'm pretty happy that I only broke one easily replaceable part. If I hadn't been able to get this powered on I probably wouldn't have been willing to put out the expense for a part replacement. Not bad for maybe an hour and a half's work.
