Fire of Earth. Landed knight, farmer. Harvest. Steward of the earth/material. "Fighting" with tangible wealth as the primary "weapon". Grounded. If moved to anger, volcano & scorched earth.
(I actually know which cards I intend for 2015, but, Mom died, my landlords sold my place, I had to move myself, and we're still sorting out her estate. I'll get to 2015's cards, eventually.)
Mom loved Austen, which led to me watching Pride & Prejudice when it very timely turned up on Netflix. Mom would've liked a Darcy Valentine.
He seems to me a Knight of Disks.
Images:
Darcy on horseback. A photo of an actual horse. Filters include: an HTDA image & tree roots grown around a Buddha, both from previous cards; a new fordite image (since modern Darcy archetypes would be into cars). Assorted images of the peak district & Chatsworth (i.e. Pemberley), including the hedge maze & art installations, to help form the shield base for my "Chokkomon" disk design. I even tried to find images of stags that live near Chatsworth, but none had antlers close to a decent angle.
The Antlers actually go with the traditional depiction of the card (a very earth-bound, staid interpretation of the Green Man). It's not just the long running joke (among #amnin friends) of putting antlers on things.
An R5000/R7000 O2 can handle two disk sleds like this, it's basically just a plastic form which holds the drive in place to an SCA connector.

SequoiaView is a utility for mapping out your hard drive visually. Mine's terrifying. Just under HALF the 160GB drive is taken up by c:\games.
Light source is by sunlight (in the room with a board to block the sunlight)
I selected the best exposure colors stand out

Mit diesem Adaptor ist die Verwendung des Sony Memory Stick in den Sony Mavica Cameras möglich. Das ergibt gegenüber der Speicherkapazität einer Floppy Disk eine enorme Steigerung! Der Memory Stick / Floppy Disk Adaptor ist jedoch nur mit Memory Sticks bis 128 MB kompatibel.
With this Adaptor the use of the Sony Memory Stick is possible in the Sony Mavica Cameras. This proves compared with the storage capacity of a floppy disk a huge increase! Nevertheless, the Memory Stick / floppy disk Adaptor is compatible only with Memory Sticks to 128 MB.
A row of removable disk packs. I don't know the storage capacity of these, but it would be small compared with what we use today!
For this project we had to take a picture of a CD and put water droplets on it, black out the room, and point flashlights on the cd so that the colors came out in the reflection of the cd. I didnt like how the cd looked with the flashlights on it so i decided to use a flashlight on my phone that was much brighter and brought out the color reflections alot more. i found a little difficulty in this project because it was hard to get everything completely in focus and all the bubbles. Once i retook pictures and looked through them, this one appealed to me the most. all the bubbles were in focus and sharp and i loved how there were colors on the top and bottom instead of all over and i thought there was a really nice pattern to it. overall i enjoyed this project mostly because i was very proud of the outcome

===============================
"Eine Diskette ist ein magnetischer Datenträger, der zur Datenspeicherung verwendet wird. Sie besteht aus einer flexiblen Kunststoffscheibe – daher die englische Bezeichnung „floppy disk“ oder kurz „Floppy“, was deutsch ungefähr mit „wabbelige Scheibe“ zu übersetzen wäre. Diese Scheibe ist mit einem magnetisierbaren Material, meistens Eisenoxid, beschichtet. Zum Schutz ist sie meistens in einem Kunststoffgehäuse (früher Pappe) verpackt, das je nach Diskettentyp entweder ebenfalls biegsam oder starr ist.
Im Unterschied zu Festplatten schleift der Schreib-/Lesekopf bei Disketten direkt auf der beschichteten magnetisierbaren Oberfläche, was mit der Zeit zu deutlichem Abrieb führt und die dauerhafte Verwendbarkeit von Disketten stark einschränkt.
Außerdem schleift auch die Magnetscheibe direkt an der umgebenden, fest im Laufwerk liegenden Hülle. Daher wird diese Hülle auf der Innenseite mit Teflon-beschichtetem (oder ähnlichem) Gewebe ausgestattet, um die Reibung zu minimieren." Quelle und weitere Informationen: Wikipedia: Diskette

I had the afternoon off today, and I decided that it's high time that I go through all my old floppies and get rid of 'em. After all, I no longer have a computer that has a floppy drive or a zip drive. So, I went through them all and I've pulled off everything onto my jump drive.
I was actually surprised to find that none of my zip disks had the click of death. I was however sad to discover that I probably have 4 or 5 Mac formatted discs, and I'm thinking that the last time that Apple made a computer with a floppy drive was 1999?
