Geeky? Me?
Still got no voice. Quite calming really. Talking is such a faff. Maybe I need to adopt a Harpo Marx style of communication.
The measuring unit of 'cup' should be banned. Just tell me in grams/ml so I don't have to google every single ingredient
Fuckety bye, Wes, you nasty little fuck. #ukpol

Interesting. It seems like there are way more Linux users here than I expected.

So, let’s do a little roll call:

What are you using?

Linux?
Windows?
macOS?
BSD?
Something beautifully weird?

I’m curious 👀

Been busy recently, so I've not posted much. I've been reclaiming wood to make CD/DVD shelves, as I'm old-skool and have physical media. Also working on nephew's guitar, so here's a gratuitous picture of a naked fretboard being made:

Today’s a victory for BBC’s relentless appeasement of far right, for Labour Together which prefers Farage cos they can say “vote for us because we ‘re not Reform”, for our bigoted press - but I will NOT despair & I will stand up for those who woke up feeling more threatened by the hate in the world
first project finished and framed! #crossstitch

Another brilliant African innovation 🌍✨

🇰🇪 Kenyan engineer @_nguthiru is creating plastic alternatives from water hyacinth that look and feel like plastic but naturally decompose. A powerful idea for tackling plastic waste across the continent.

Do you think solutions like this should get more support? ⬇️

I was inspired by @Glambfmbasdler and @dusepo, and I tried to build a musical instrument myself. I started with the easiest part: the body of a guitar 🎸. The neck is original from #Ibanez.

Thanks, guys, for the #inspiration 🤝.

Here is the result:
