Zack's Gridfinity vids were the reason I bought a printer in the first place so Thangs was my first stop, and I love that their search also indexes Printables/Thingiverse/Cults3D/etc.

Printables has the best UI and community engagement though. Seriously, in 2023 there's no excuse for your website not having a dark mode option.

Even aside from the temptation to use offsets to kick the can down the road for reduction targets, the rampant abuse of carbon credits make this absolutely the right decision.

about 2m-ish I guess? Our eldest miiight be able to make it up there if he wanted to, but he's a timid momma's boy with no interest in venturing out of his safe space. His little brother would if he could, but he's built like a kitbull - all shoulders and stumpy legs, not exactly made for jumping :)
What’s Inside That McDonald’s Ice Cream Machine? Broken Copyright Law | iFixit News

This summer, we’re on a mission to figure out why McDonald’s ice cream machines are always broken—by tearing one apart and fixing outdated copyright law.

Our two cats get supervised time in the backyard every couple of days - we used to put them in harnesses until we moved to a place with high enough fences that they couldn't get out even if they wanted to.

Mostly they just wanna chew grass for 15 minutes and maybe investigate a random plant bed, and they quickly learned that if they come back inside when called they get treats :)

I've been on Pulsar since Atom retired and I love it. I'm mostly doing AsciiDoc with a bit of HTML, CSS, JS, J/CSON, and OAS/YAML.

Some of our team switched to VSCode but I prefer Pulsar's UI and workflow, and especially the multicursor support. Obviously it's still under active development to tidy up leftover cruft from the fork, and there are a few more AsciiDoc-specific features I'd love to add without resorting to custom scripts, but overall it's my favourite editor by far.

Last week's episode of No Such Thing As A Fish had some wonderful facts about this sport, including that the top competitors in this sport can jump high enough to clear the first two fences at the Grand National steeplechase.

Been with ING for almost 20 years. My only issues with them are:

  • They're slow to adopt new tech. Tap payments, Google Wallet/ApplePay integration, etc. takes a bit longer than the major banks.
  • They screwed me over once on what should have been a routine (and totally affordable) mortgage extension to finance some renovations. I'm still a bit salty about it, but it was mid-covid and I suspect their competitors would have been just as cagey and risk-averse at the time.

For day-to-day regular transaction account stuff they've been super chill, and their front-line customer service is surprisingly decent.

My gf got me a custom-printed Frank cup and it's super pretty but it's leaked since day 1 and the lid is a nightmare to take apart and clean properly. They do appear to be selling non-seal sippy lids now though so I might just order one of those to get some use out of it.
Good to know, thanks! Renting atm so we're suck with whatever we have for now, but I'm keeping a list of nice-to-haves when we eventually buy our own place.
