Currently out walking the dog in the fields. The sun’s come out, the petrichor is in full swing, it’s a lovely morning. We’ve seen a green woodpecker. Edit: dog rolled in fox poo. Boo
Off to a party to see some old friends later. Yay.
That’s just so great about this series. So much stuff that just doesn’t make any sense at all but they don’t explain, don’t apologize, even double down…just pure silliness but with splashes of brilliance.
Ooh what kind of crafts? Our library used to have a knit and natter, but it only happened at like 10am on a Wednesday so effectively banned working-age folks. And now even that is gone. Bah.
Honestly I made one friend through Ravelry years ago, and that seems to be about it around here in terms of crafters who are under retirement age. Such is life in small towns! I think there is a lot more stuff for young kids on a weekend though, basically the demographic here is “parents” and “old people” and if you’re neither you’re out of luck!
At least there’s online though. I’m loving seeing all the new crafty communities popping up on here, just hope they can get enough content to keep going 🤞
For sewing there seem to be two trying to get off the ground but neither seem super active. I’ll probably just pick one at random and start posting in it if that doesn’t change but they’re !sewing (direct link) and !sewing (direct link)
!leathercraft (direct link) isn’t something I do personally but I do enjoy perving over their projects anyway.
Erm…if I find any more I’ll come back and update this lol. Kind of one a one-woman mission to build a good list, then hopefully convince the various mods to sticky it so people who find one of these places can then find all the others too.
(Also p.s. I don’t know how to format these links for Kbin so sorry if they don’t work. But hopefully I’ve made it a bit easier for any other Lemmings who stumble across this comment.)
Oh my god, thank you for such a comprehensive list! I will be checking out each and every one of them a little later on.
I feel like everyone really t needs to pull together and try and build all these communities to get this whole place rolling. Thriving more niche communities are vital to that.
Yep absolutely! I can’t commit to running one myself but can at least do my part by being a patient explorer (and insufferable shill) of new communities lol.
I think you should post your group collection to the front page in someway. We absolutely need to be pushing crafts and creative groups to the forefront. Thank you again!
had a knowledge sharing meeting at work recently on container security. the guy was using podman like a docker cli, but it said "this is only an emulation of docker" - is there any downsides to running podman like this? im very familiar with docker on the command line
I think calling it an emulation downplays podman. Docker and podman are both container runtimes. Docker came first and is known synonymously with containers, whereas podman is newer and attempts to fix docker’s problems.
One outcome of this is podman chose to match docker’s cli very closely so nobody needs to learn a new cli. You can even put podman on the docker socket so “docker [command]” runs with podman.
I had a couple of Motorola phones back in the day. Most recently I had a Moto Z2 Force, which had a shatterproof screen. I really liked that because around then I had my first kid and kids cause accidents all the time. LOL
You shoulda just secretly did a few orders everyday and then took 3 hours off. If they don’t appreciate productivity, take it as a sign that you should slow down and chill.
Motorola mobility(the one that makes phones) has been sold to Lenovo(chinese company). Their recent phones range from great value for money to mediocre. Their moto g32 was(and still is) great value for money
Snapdragon 680(6nm), 90hz screen, water repellent design, fm radio, 5000 mah battery, 30w charging, 85% screen to body ratio, headphone jack. All that for 160€ which is basically as cheap as you can get(a decent phone).
For me, their main feature is the flashlight shake, that allows you to turn on the flashlight just by doing a shake motion(no need to go into menus and stuff).
Good luck waiting then, it has been sold in 2014 and by the way was owned by Google before. Could have been what the lines of Nexus and Pixel have become today.
I, too, am using the Motorola One 5G, and really aside from updates, I have no complaints, except the phone trips out once in a while or has weird screen glitches on occasion. Great phone though. Hoping to upgrade to one of the Edge series soon.
Absolutely no obligations today other than to avoid getting dressed, eat snacks, and lounge around on the couch doing whatever tf I want. Which is mostly gonna be game dev and crochet, I think. Maybe a bit of sewing if I can be arsed to get off said couch and go upstairs, but that seems unlikely.
No rain due here til tomorrow night but it is at least much cooler today so I’ll take it!
