Baby steps.
I made a little #rustic step-ladder for the living room using a maple yoke piece that I ripped down the middle. And I added a removable slide for the junior woodworkers to have a some indoor playground fun.

I don't think #spooncarving will ever be my main thing but it's such a nice way to practice and experiment. This little spoon is for the sugar bowl. It was a piece of birch around a knot that I almost threw in the compost but then I thought it might be worth trying to work that swerving grain.

In retrospect, maybe organizing the whole world via Teen-Chat and Celebrity-Quip products was not a good idea.

And there are lots of other examples where folks seem to bargain with extractive technologies and avoid the debate about environmental damage by talking about the good intentions and organization of the makers.

An organic, fair-trade, community-governed, collectively-owned, open-source oil rig is still an oil rig.
Intentions, governance, ownership, etc. are all super important, but you also need to be honest about what the thing does and the consequences.
I'm lookin' at you "Open-Source Local LLMs".
@jacksonchen666 You could use another filterable product search thing, like the Tweakers Pricewatch or Geizhals? (Though the listed parts will vary by local availability for their respective locales of course.)
There's also icecat but IIRC its search is garbage

My own testing has shown it outperforms the others *and* doesn’t box you into weird licenses and questionable leadership promises.

my sister has been desperately dieting and losing weight and has lost 63.5kg over the course of a year and she booked a consultation for some cosmetic surgery, video consult, doctor said it was fine and she should drive from Wales to Birmingham to get this done. she gets there today, sees another doctor who tells her she's *too fat to get the surgery* and then slams the door in her face when she starts crying.
@mariusor Right, I understand what you mean now. Assuming we're looking at the same sibling comment, there are indeed options in Node.js to get an equivalent deployment experience; eg. the built-in experimental SEA thing (https://nodejs.org/docs/latest/api/single-executable-applications.html) or the older vercel/pkg tool.
@mariusor Hmm, where are you seeing the additional effort being involved? As there's no real operational cost to a dependency being involved, since that's typically handled by the package manager automatically.
Or are you thinking of the "no package manager, only run binaries directly on the system" case specifically?
Huh, got a 'data processing notice' e-mail from a B2B marketing / "contact database" company telling me that my freelance site had been indexed, and... they seem to actually be seriously trying to follow the GDPR in spirit?
Apparently they delete data from their database when it disappears off company sites, and they have a *very* long document explaining in detail why they feel there's "legitimate interest" and it's actually a credible argument ("you made a company site to market your company, and our business directory has the same goal").
Didn't think I'd ever see this.
@mariusor No, I'm genuinely trying to understand what you mean here. To me, there's no relation between "deploying on bare metal" and choice of language at all, so I feel like I must be either missing or misunderstanding something.

Where is that post that goes "I fucked up my repo so bad" and then it's an infographic of the Christian denominations schisming and branching off of one another

25 jaar geleden was 13 mei een zaterdag en net zulk prachtig weer als vandaag. Vijf jaar geleden schreef ik op wat ik die dag zag, hoorde, voelde, en deed. Vanochtend las ik het terug en rolden toch weer tranen over mijn wangen. Het was een dag die voorgoed in mijn lijf bleef wonen.
