Every time I see someone use a catapult i think how it's just a shitty version of a trebuchet. I watched a video that included a catapult and accidentally nerd sniped myself into building a trebuchet. Doing final measurement prints for it before i make bucket & sling. What a waste of my day. Behold.
Woaw
I like when my contacts arrive because it makes me feel like the illuminati sent me a package.
I really hate it when my waffle:waffle ratio is less than 1.
Quick question, how much meringue is too much meringue to get on your server infra? It's running kubernetes if that makes a difference??
Best commit I've ever made.
Dumb thing I made: duck.scopecreep.productions
Enterprise grade duck website.
@tilde-os.bsky.social the best part about this is that I used my normal infra, so it has a full gitlab pipeline, an auto-generated lets encrypt HTTPS cert, it's a container with security managed by gitops best practices on k8s with multiple replicas served via a cf zero trust tunnel.
For duck.
FEATURE UPDATE:
MORE DUCKS
MORE QUACKS
NOW STORES HOW MANY TIMES YOU'VE PET THE DUCKS
DUCKS MAY GET BIGGER DW ABOUT IT
@stray-mutt.bsky.social
Remember how I said I'm feeling super busy with no time?
It's ducks.

Will these unlock the door to your house?
This includes stuff like custom metal hardware for leatherworking related stuff, parts for larger components, etc etc etc. I'm down to help you figure out the design of your "thing" too
and the actual cad file for the blades, ~1 meter edge to edge, though I might shrink that, I don't want to hit myself with them... I'm not very happy with how the handles printed right now, so in the middle of doing a redesign for that.
Oh yeah, here are the blades as a poc - illuminated.
So I'm making Buugeng s stave rave flow toys, and I'm currently using espnow to time sync and I'm just so impressed with how fast this protocol is. This is wirelessly live syncing each frame at 60fps so each frame gets a timestamp. The jitter is imperceptible.
Hey Bsky, gonna be posting here more for both project sharing and selling some of my wares.
That being said I make Tactipaws: the tactical fingerless glove with silicone paws. They're $40 plus shipping and i can make the paws any color! DM for more info!

My favorite rave venue just got shut down by the city.
Mormons really do not like raves. They're always playing whack-a-mole to shut them down. How dare people have fun in a non-mormon-approved way.
You're a problematic shrimp.
"Heinous and violent criminals" is just the tag they'll put on anyone they deport.
It's not a reality, it's a justification, and "heinous and violent" will be whatever they decide it is.
That's fun....
Related, here is the volatility index. Every spike this large has a well known name,
Dotcom boom, 2008 financial crisis, arab spring, and COVID.
So uhh... that's happening.
I do love that you remembered every 3 years to put tax docs in for a bit. But only every 3 years, and only 3 times.
So, I've been avoiding politics, but I just learned that the house voted that the remainder of the 119th congress is one day. It's just one day. There's no more day, it's only today. This year? One day. Next year? SAME DAY. Tomorrow is 2 years away.
Somehow this is fitting.
I do not understand why democrats haven't been calling tariffs a tax since the start of the year
A tariff is a flat(read: regressive) tax on the consumers that can be used for protectionism. That's it. That's all it is.
Explaining tariffs won't work, call it what it is: A tax that hurts consumers
I feel like it's a really bad sign when you tell your therapist "I am anxious" and they reply with "Well, yeah, you have valid reasons to be anxious."
Like, oh, okay, cool, I'm always anxious but now I'm just normal levels of anxious because everyone is anxious. Neat!
Removing de minimis effectively kills the ability to learn PCB designs by many newer designers
You are GOING to mess up your first designs, have to reorder, and for a lot of people an additional $25 per iteration is prohibitive
A lot of businesses that would exist now just won't.
Love that.
So, the majority of items that Americans use are imported. The tariffs are applied everywhere. The cost of the tariff gets passed on to the consumer and gets paid to the government.
This is just a flat tax by another name.
Call it what it is, he just raised taxes, this is a Trump tax.
It's weird to me that we elected Trump, not because of MAGA, not because of any of the culture war stuff, but like... when it comes down to it, he just really wasn't a good leader. If he were a good leader during his tenure I would have totally understood, but he just... wasn't.
It's confusing.
I made a thing, check it out. They also sparkle. Very cute.
If you want some, there's two ways
If you have a multi-color printer, the download is [here](makerworld.com/en/models/89...)
I'm also selling them, $15+shipping but I don't have a site because I'm bad at capitalism, so... DM I guess?
