Contemplating search engines. DuckDuckGo has been my tool for years but it seems to fail to return good results more and more often resulting in my increasing use of “!g”. Which of course I want to avoid which is the reason I have used DDG. What good alternatives are there that easily fit into a workflow?
I’ve tried several Mastodon clients lately. Not in love with any yet. One downside of sampling them is I’ve lost quite a bit of my timeline because it isn’t sync’d across them.🤷♂️
👷♂️ Cranking out some gridfinity bins for our bathroom drawers
Oh yeah the #tusker app is also missing a share sheet. So Mastoot lives on in my workflow to share photos and receive notifications.
I’m really liking the #tusker Mastodon app so far. Hoping for quick fixes to the lack of all notifications and the fact nearly all images are hidden for no reason and I have to click an arrow to see them.
I’m really happy with the way this Pi Pico case turned out using Prussament Clear PETG. I wasn’t sure I had much use for clear but this has changed my mind.
🤔 Trying out the Tusker app for Mastodon. I like it so far. Just need to solve the lack of notifications.
Giving the Tusker app for Mastodon a try. It promises to sync the timeline across devices…
🐶 Winding down into the weekend
The Clear PETG filament I ordered arrived today. Now I need to think of something to use it for. 🤔
Yesterdays’ webcam stand looked like a spool of thread so I quickly made a new on in TinkerCAD. Still functional and looks a bit better. Random seams in evidence.
🏗️ Modeling and printing a webcam mount to use with Octoprint
In my dream this happens: I create a post on iOS, hit a button, and it magically goes to both Mastodon and github pages with proper formatting (text and photos).
There are pieces of a solution but I have’t found a complete one.
This quick webcam stand I modeled and printed for use with Octoprint does the job though without elegance (I have yet to learn to design). By accident when printing this with a 6mm nozzles the result looks remarkably like a spool of thread.
Someday I will learn to use Fusion 360 or FreeCAD or etc. Someday…
How astute of you iOS
Used our discount offer from Nintendo to pre-order the new Zelda and Kirby games. My son also knocked out the new Kirby game’s demo. Looks fun! 🕹️
Watching my 3D printer print. I have no life.🤷♂️
🙃 Due to last week’s ice storm this is the first day of school in a week. I’m not ready for the old morning routine.
Well good morning! After 4 days of freezing temps and all that this was a welcomed sight.
Printing with Amolen Wood Filament for the first time - it has a sweet woodsy smell.
❔ Random thought: does peanut butter taste good with cinnamon?
After 4 days of sub-freezing temps, sleet, freezing rain, snow and no school the temp has hit 50F today and the sun is out. Sure feels good! ☀️
Well public school just changed their mind and will be closed tomorrow, Friday. That makes 4 days in a row the ice has kept the kiddos home. But tomorrow will bring warmer temps in the afternoon and hopefully clear things up. Can’t wait to get out of the !&#)!% house even if it is just to get to a convenience store. 🏫 🧊
🥸 Living dangerously: pushing my Prusa3D print speed to 200%
🧊 Day 2 of being iced in. Not a fan.
