I hate podcasts-except for the ones I really like. They’re “not like podcasts,” though.

forgejo Actions (for Shugits)

I have been using forgejo with Mercurial (hg) - the two pair well together when using my tool “shugits” to connect them. This post is a rambling discussion of how I enabled CI for this Hugo blog.

palPool / C++ String Pool (that never empties)

Return of the Mac

Both of my pi3 are broken! One (physically and literally) melts any pen drive connected to it - and - the other … is … dead? I have a MacMini from Mid-2011 so here’s what happened when I reformatted it to be my new Debian host.

Streaming / 2023-07-21

Soundtrack I’m making an effort (for some values of “effort”) to line up my “evening painting” with 2000 UK Time and a camera. So … this is my second day on Twitch - neat. I wanted a better “tool case” for my cutting tools, so, I set myself streaming as I cut up EVA matt scraps and hot glued them together to make an insert for an old cigar box.

Soundtrack I’m making an effort (for some values of “effort”) to line up my “evening painting” with 2000 UK Time and a camera. I’m doing the Twitch Streaming thing - I guess. I had wanted to do Balthasar Gold across all the models … but … speed said “No” which was surprising. One of the ex Games Workshop product designers (who was bald)…

3D Printing Log

This is a rough (and uneditied) log of my 3D printing attempts. I’m posting it mainly as I see no harm in that, rather than a believe that my poorly written scribbling with be of greate sorcial benefit. (The spelling mistakes above and below should be considered as intentional here as they are in 419 scams)

OctoPrint Container

I keep forgetting how I setup octoprint.

Special Miniatures

This is an (incomplete) listing of the “special” models Games Workshop has released and sold in funky ways. I started compiling it when sopmeone pointed out that I had “missed” 1 several Nighthaunt models by only 2 painting what was currently for sale.

PrinterJournal / Bowden Tube Flush with Nozzle

My 3D printer was in a state where it seemed to need the nozzle unclogged after each print. The issue was that the PTFE tube was not flush with the nozzle, due to the hot end coupler being “worn in” and feeling like it was fully extended.
