My hobby (film development and printing) is really only possible because of the density of burned out hardware and software engineers with time and money, and a deeply autistic interest in making things work (just spoke to the people who set up my community darkroom. They bought out gear from labs which closed, and fixed it up.. this doesn’t really exist anywhere else)
I have a color darkoom I can use! (They rebuilt some color processors, it was pretty gnarly)
