I'm checking the shipment tracking on this website and they have a captcha that will tell how scored vs other users/bots, lol.

just came across https://lok.computer by @lok and think its pretty damn neat

I have everything I need to try multi-colour reduction wood engraving and printing. Except wood blocks. Attempting a four colour, four step beach scene with dunes, a gradient sky and a meandering stream, on a tiny irregular block of lemonwood, was […] [Original post on mastodon.online]

Was on the #Mastodon website and I found it kinda funny how incredibly random the "Supported by" section is. One company is ”NoNeedToStudy” with “Take My GRE Exam For Me” in big text on their site. There's also “The Sex Toy Collective” which uhh educates […] [Original post on nutmeg.social]

Another lot of #coffee dropped off to Sammy at Feral Express for delivery around #Sheffield on their #cargobike from our cargobike. This is a #mastodon success story. They are not on this platform but connections between our followers and theirs on instagram […] [Original post on mastodonapp.uk]

#WIP - Been meaning to update my site design for a little while now. One day you like a new #design idea, the next you hate it. My design process involves a lot of testing ideas. But I'm trying to wrap things up and stop redesigning things. 😁 My latest […] [Original post on nutmeg.social]

So many birds heard, seen.

I’m always happy to see Camponotus castaneus one of the more rare ants in New York City. At first I was disappointed to see two of them fighting each other, but I realized that meant that there must be at least *two* colonies living in close proximity, so when […] [Original post on sauropods.win]

John Oliver and his team have a knack for shining the light on important, but less talked about issues. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qKeq4CEZtm8 #lastweektonight #johnoliver #uspol

Turns out if you don't invite the US to a climate conference, work gets done. The #santamarta conference name “Just Transition Away from Fossil Fuels” is not exactly catchy. But, that's exactly what it is. It's not to waste time on skeptics or negotiate climate goals with oil countries. It's […]

A cool exploration of the RYB color model, very fun to play with. https://rybitten.space/ Seen in the @piccalilli newsletter. #design #color #webdev

RE: https://journa.host/@pbump/116539134400819844 “Warnings about panopticons were once wildly hyperbolic. Years of real or perceived wolf-crying, it seems, made it easier for an actual panopticon to be created right under our noses.”

Today's enigma: Midori Browser I was randomly reminded of it, and the Wikipedia article is missing a lot of information. It was notable for being one of the few browsers built on WebKit. The browser has been around for almost 20 years. In 2019 the browser was bought by Astian and FOSS […]

My photo doesn't show the scale of these things they are absolutely tiny. The specs are all fake obviously but I sorta wanna get one and try to shoehorn some @postmarketOS onto it.

@TechConnectify's new How Hybrids Work video is pretty great. Way more to it than just regenerative braking. I didn't realize these cars straight-up just don't have a normal transmission—it's an electric motor acting as a Continuously Variable Transmission […]

Little whale print which I'm calling finished, so one page of this book is done. This is a zinc plate etching, with hard ground, aquatint, lots of stop out and white ground. #printmaking

Sometimes I think Saskatchewan might be another planet from anywhere else I've lived. There are several large lakes that get thick layers of ice on top and are heavily used for ice fishing (with big trucks driving on the ice, to give you an idea of how thick […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

I enjoy @hankgreen's positivity in this one. It's hard to walk the line of both caring about losing what we've built and enjoying the success stories we're continuing to see. It's something I think about often and routinely reevaluate. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-pTjwWTQZqs #healthcare

“The Voting Rights Act is — or, now more accurately, was— ‘one of the most consequential, efficacious, and amply justified exercises of federal legislative power in our Nation’s history.’ It was born of the literal blood of Union soldiers and civil rights marchers.”

Today I managed to freeze the checkout machine at my grocery store. I started using #fosswallet on my phone and I tried recreating my grocery store card (Stop & Shop) using the "CODE 128" barcode format and my member number. Well it turns out that does NOT work with Stop & Shop, and the […]

In relation to Mastodon.art Curator's post about not using ableist language like "insane", "crazy", and "dumb," I saw that NPR did a piece on it in 2019: https://www.npr.org/2019/07/08/739643765/why-people-are-arguing-to-stop-using-the-words-crazy-and-insane I don't agree with Curator's […]

I spend a lot of effort on noise reduction. Turning off alerts, reducing the size of (especially redundant) messages I don't really need to see—that kind of stuff. It's REALLY disruptive when software I use decides to get rid of those filters. Like not even just turning the noise back on, but […]

I've been working on this #documentary about one of my mentors, David MacDonald since 2022. He was a professor at Syracuse University for over forty years and is a beloved figure in the #ceramics world. This project has been an immense undertaking. My hope is to finish shooting by spring 2027 […]

The quality of my makeshift halftone filter is actually better than the one built into Affinity V3. It doesn't have those weird artifacts on pixel boundaries.

Anyway. Here is what I came up with. https://communities.jointhefediverse.net Now, I consider this a prototype, so rather than people suggesting which servers to add, I'd like to first hear thoughts on the ideas I implemented.

This three year-old colony of Lasius emergents is already active early this morning. These ants are retrieving food from the sidewalk. The “Manhattant” (their local common name) often forms, orderly linear trails, taking advantage of vertical channels in […] [Original post on sauropods.win]
