A very interesting talk from @eylul at #ubuntusummit about the connections between FOSS and art.

Inspired by a small part of that talk, I wonder what a Right of Repair for software would look like? Would that be a good idea?

@Oliver_Bain did me some lovely kunanyi-skyline earrings a while back, but there have been limited opportunities to wear them outside in on a sunny day to charge the phosphorescence. Perth, however, has provided some excellent sunlight!

Tortano, take 4.

This one worked really well. I added a fair bit less water than last time, and that resulted in a much less sloppy dough* and a more even crumb. I even managed a long ear slice!

*: Weird, right? 🤪

I recently got my friend Oli to make a set of drops. They're silver, stichtite, and quartzite, and I have *no* idea how to photograph them well 😀.

They depict the skyline of kunanyi¹, with the organ-pipes etched into the silver.

Because the quartzite is florescent the sky glows faintly day-glo yellow after exposure to sunlight (or, I guess, under blacklight, should I ever frequent a rave 🤪).

¹: the mountain Hobart is built under, known affectionately by locals as “The Mountain”

Miso & seaweed loaf, take 2:

Roughly halved the miso content, making for a much less overpowering loaf. Still very blobby, but I managed to make it loaf a bit more this time, too.

Chonky Spelt Boi this time.

I think I'm getting the hang of correct density and sturdy crusts.

Something a bit more exotic today for #breadposting — a miso and seaweed loaf!

Loosely based on a recipe I found online, it's a *little* strong when on its own but goes very nicely with some butter!

Unexpected benefit of the new kitchen windows: I can eat breakfast and watch this:
Tortano, take 3. Pretty successful, need to cut down on the water a little.

Happy birb day for those who celebrate!
