It's still not conclusive, between a very intensive strep throat infection or I got mono

If you happen to be located near Amsterdam Linda runs some really good workshops based on his work.

I can't tell if it's amazing or if it's gone too far.

Yeah, same here! Those autoplaying videos are a nightmare for my brain. They just suck up all my spoons, Speaking of spoons, is that what you meant by "stimulation resistance energy"? I've heard people talk about "spoon theory" but not sure if it's the same thing.

Anyway, I wanted to share something that's been a game-changer for me. It's this thing called ReVanced. Basically, it lets you tweak social media apps and get rid of all the annoying bits designed to grab your attention.

Like, I kinda like YouTube Shorts, but they're everywhere, right? And those massive thumbnails are just too much. I'd end up doomscrolling through them instead of watching proper videos from creators I actually like. So, with ReVanced, I used a patch to hide Shorts from the main page and put them in their own little tab. Now, I can still watch them if I want to, but they're not constantly in my face, pulling me in. Seriously, it's helped me so much with my focus and energy levels. Maybe it could help you too? Just thought I'd share in case it's useful. Cheers!

Can you check the humidity levels in the room you have the printer?

I struggled finding reliable calibrations for my printer and materials until I realised a couple of things.

Are you printing PETG?

I gotta say it really just looks like an uglier version of Renaults Trezor concept car.

As long as you protect that password store with a sufficiently strong password that you store in a password manager that has a sufficiently strong password :P

I joke but yes some sort of password store is what you would use but make sure that password store needs something like a yubikey with a strong private key on it ^⁠_⁠^

The problem is how many random characters can you remember in your head?

A good encryption key would be around 32 characters to form a 256 bit encryption key.

You can do a fun game of encrypt the encryption key with a password but that's just another vulnerability in the chain.

I recommend getting a PGP key stored on a yubikey and then encrypt all your notes with it since it's all in markdown, I store my notes on Google drive and keep them decrypted in memory so that I can still use Obsidian.

+1 for Diatraxis, my team has started using it to align all documentation.

One can dream.

 

Everyone is missing out on the good shit in life focusing only on the forest but not the fine details, the forest only exists because of millions of small beautiful details.

I don't know if it's because I'm on the spectrum but I hope it isn't, I wish everyone could experience the same joy I get from all the small things.

 

Does anyone know if the Google Cloud SDK is open source and where the code is hosted?

It's causing me lots of extra work because it lights up like a Christmas tree when scanned with Snyk, I would love to do some free patching for it or just build it myself.

I recently stumbled upon a fantastic swivelling recliner chair on trash day in Amsterdam, but there's one small catch – it's missing its base! The chair itself is in great condition, and I couldn't resist the opportunity to bring it back to life. However, I'm facing a bit of a dilemma when it comes to finding the right chair base to restore this gem to its former glory.

What I want to achieve:

  1. The chair is a swivelling recliner, so I need a base that allows it to swivel.
  2. I don't have any information about the chair's brand or model.
  3. I'm open to both purchasing a replacement base if I can find the right one, or attempting a DIY solution if that's feasible.
  4. I am located in the Netherlands, so I would prefer to get something local but am happy to order online.

I've tried searching online, but without knowing the specific chair's make and model, it's been challenging to identify the exact base I need. So, I'm turning to this wonderful DIY community for your expertise. Here are a few questions I have:

  1. What strategies or resources can I use to identify the chair's make and model based on any existing markings or features?
  2. If I can't find a matching base, how challenging would it be to fabricate a custom base that accommodates both swiveling and reclining functions?
  3. Are there any common standards or measurements for chair bases that I should be aware of when searching for a replacement?
  4. Any other tips, tricks, or advice on how to go about this project would be greatly appreciated!

Please let me know if I should add any pictures to the album HERE.

Thanks, everyone who takes the time to read this and respond ^ _ ^

 

I recently found out that Racktime makes little snap-on bracks that let me turn anything I can drill holes in into snap-on modules for my bike.

The Bike is a rental so it took some time to figure out how to add a rear rack so that I can take it off if I need to return it but I am incredibly happy with the results!
