Interesting. What's the particular application that would warrant that? I'm asking because conformal coating could be applied easier.

Also, do. you plan to stick to a certain resin, or do you have a little test setup to adjust for e. g. differences in viscosity?

That's fine, but round corners are not only an anesthetic choice, but also a structural one. Sharp corners and abrupt changes in geometry in general are bad for stress concentration, impact resistance and honestly also for handling.

I don't think it matters here much, and if I'm not mistaken, there is even a slight radius on the corners.

Hey hey now, leave my bath salts alone.

An OM-3 or a Lumix GM5 are both absolutely portable, even more so than typical mirrorless bodies. Unfortunately, the OM-3 is a flagship camera, and the GM5 has turned into a collector's item, so both are expensive.

Not really, no. Signal was released more or less exactly a year later than WhatsApp (May 2010 vs May 2009), which, if you look at the 17 years since then, doesn't really matter that much.

However, broad adoption rates in messaging apps are typically achieved by e. g. funny emoji sets vs. encryption, and the early versions of Signal were pretty barebone.

  1. You could start by typing cd and use tab completion to explore your target folder(s). This would require at least a rudimentary knowledge of what you're looking for so you can prefix your search

  2. If you really want to explore the contents and pick your target without knowing anything in advance, cd "$(find . -type d | fzf)" would give you a smart browser. You can of course replace '.' with any base directory you like. Requires fzf.

  3. In general, zoxide can help with navigation.

  4. If you want to stay a purist, I'd go for simply recalling your last ls command from the history and replacing it with cd. An example has been given in the thread already.

But did you like it eventually?

I'll come forward and admit I fucking love mushrooms, and some facts in this book blew my mind. It's one of my favorite, non-fiction books.

I opened the link and immediately suspected it must be the son of Rupert Sheldrake, brother to Merlin Sheldrake, the mycologist. It was.

Merlin's book is rather amazing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entangled_Life

Overall, interesting family.

No, but the actual study does. Birth outcome is defined as:

  • weight at birth
  • gestational age (i. e. how long the pregnancy lasted)
  • if the birth weight was below 2500g
  • if it was a preterm birth, i. e. the gestational age was less than 37 weeks

The study focuses on first - born children and corrects for multiplicity (e. g. twins), which are a lot more common under medically assisted reproduction.

The highly abbreviated conclusion is that under these circumstances, the previously observed poorer birth outcomes largely disappear.

Naturally, this result says nothing about the later developments of the affected children. Nothing positive, nothing negative. Nothing.

Here is a link to the preprint: https://epc2026.eaps.nl/uploads/260546

Why the fuck would a news article like that link to Instagram, which requires an account for even the simplest interaction these days.

I see a lot of people using restic here. However, restic has no support for object locking. Depending on the backup source, an attack on the storage location itself is probable (e. g. via ransomware).

I think rustic is currently discussing implementing support for object locking, and Kopia has it already.

None of the solutions have had an official audit yet, and at least Kopia defaults to AES-GCM, where I'd really love for an auditor to tell me there are no issues with nonce reuse, but switching to ChaChaPoly-1305 is an option.

If that matters depends a lot on the individual, just something to keep in mind.
