  1. An all-black LAMY Safari fountain pen filled with a mix of water, Platinum carbon black, and inkjet printer ink.
  2. A blank sheet of A4, folded in half three times.
  3. My passport.
  4. A fully loaded Secrid card carrier.
  5. A really nice rock. It has been in my pocket for a year. Don't think about it.
  6. A dumb watch. (Casio W-59. Very small, light as a feather. Green LED-backlight display. 50 metre water resist. Tough, within reason. Effectively infinite battery life.)
  7. A beta of the PinePhone Pro, equipped with dreemurrs archlinux.
  8. A USB drive containing all of my computers' boot partitions and Archiso.

@etuomaala For the record, if you posted multiple images, they're not visible to me on Mastodon. When I've done the opposite, posting to Lemmy with a Mastodon account, multiple photos aren't visible to the lemmy users either.

That pen isn't inked, you can see right through the ink window

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago

Yeah, I know. Like I told the other guy, it's a stock image. An image of the real pen wouldn't add anything except ink in the window, and I can't take a better picture than whoever did the stock image. The ink in the window looks entirely unremarkable.

...

/me looks at ink in the window for five minutes with a bright light backlighting the window.

...

Yeah, the ink in there is entirely unremarkable. It's just grey air bubbles and black water. IDK, you want a picture of the ink window anyway?

Computer scientist here. I also write with a fountain pen.

Me too, is this a thing?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 9 months ago

Maybe, maybe not. Of the people I work with, only a handful even have a notebook. One other uses a Kaweco Sport FP. So for my sample, it's a mixed bag.

I've used the same Lamy Vista, the clear acrylic version of this pen so you can see the ink color, for maybe 18 years. Absolute workhorse.

OHHHH, I want that pen. I noticed it the week after I got my Safari, and was like, "NOOOOOOOOOOO!"

Especially with the converter with the red twist cap, it looks awesome.
