I should make an automatic candy dispenser next year. I've seen videos about some DIY ones and they differ extremely in their approach. I think a candy-vomiting ghoul would be cool.

I have cursed about 30 children with diabetes and obesity. Muahahaha.

I'm on the verge of printing the parts for the 10'' server rack but to be completely sure I need to buy all the screws first. The home improvement store provides measurements for the screws on the website but measuring them before committing is probably a good sanity check.

I despise the smell of 5 minute epoxy glue. The fishy stank takes an eternity to vanish.

Help! I'm designing a 10'' mini rack server case. TBH it's meant as a birthday present for a friend but secretly it's also something I might want to build for myself. There are some designs but I don't like how they look. My design looks neat, is modular and has a cover and is printable on my Prusa, except for the mounting rails of course.

I have a lingering bugging feeling because I have lost my pocket knife and don't know where I've lost it. My higher cognitive thinking has closed this case but my sense of order is driving me in circles.

After 15 years of ownership I have lost my trusty Swiss Army knife that I've always carried in my pocket. I'm not super sad because I got it for free and I've abused the blades a lot. Luckily I have a new replacement ready to go that I bought 5 years ago.

@zeldatra Cool. I bet you're not allowed to carry a baseball bat with barbed wire wrapped around it.

Helped my neighbour to cut off some thick bushes with my chainsaw. He's older and was doing it with a jig saw. The chainsaw did it within a few minutes instead of a whole day.

@scribus I have seen articles about that today. I spoke today with a colleague (is a graphic (3D) designer and UX designer) who vibe-codes prototypes. During our talk he showed what he made and was altering things during our call. It was wild how Cursor messes things up and needs constant supervision. I mean it's impressive that someone with no coding experience achieved that but crutches can only go so far until they create other pain points.

At my work they want to push Copilot and ChatGPT on us. All people who are participating need to fill out a questionnaire and answer what's been done with AI and if it were effective or not. I'm hesitant to participate and rate negatively everything.

I'm satisfied with my latest bike repair. For the next time I have to change the sprocket I am considering going down to 16 teeth. Originally I had 19, now 18. I was always complaining that the gearing ratio was not high enough so this could be an option. The sprocket at my pedals has 39 teeth.

Animation was good, the visuals not my cup of tea. It wasn't thaaat bad technically but it has a lot of what I don't gel with. I get adventure films and mystery but in Flow it is getting me on my nerves as nothing appears to be explained or wanted to be explained and all the characters' motivations and inner thoughts can only be guessed by the actions, because they are animals but with some human-like cognitive abilities. It's frustrating me on a deeper level in regards of story telling.
-
Unpopular opinion: Flow, the animated film sucks. If you're a vibes or animal person, it might be something. It's just some animals roaming the land and escaping rising waters.

Who could have thought that an old and worn-down part might be problematic as in adding more resistance and more wear and tear on other parts like the chain? This is how the old sprocket looks. https://i.imgur.com/DAXU1dt.jpeg After the change it's a difference like night and day, somehow surprisingly.

@scribus I have to use Win11 on my computer from work and it is definitely a decline in usability and compatibility from 10 with its new context menu but for the most part the whole system can be configured to feel more like 10. I'm not a fan of 10 either to be frank. All I want is the uncharismatic Win2000 look and feel with the modern (good) advancements of the newest version like Windows Subsystem for Linux and automatic driver installation. If not for gaming and some programs I have to use I'd use Linux all the time. I'm going slightly insane thinking of buying a (used) M1 Mac Mini for like CAD modeling with Autodesk Fusion

Got myself a really fine and smooth operating caliper at the flea market for just 9€. I had to clean it as it was gummed up with grime but it is better than the cheap one I bought new. This one has a number engraved on the back but doesn't bother me much. This one costs new about 35€. Great deal! https://i.imgur.com/HcteEYV.jpeg

My printed chain guard turned out pretty nice https://i.imgur.com/bDlIipS.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/rcmzHLm.jpeg During the whole process I also changed the chain and discovered that the sprocket is heavily worn down and creates unpleasant rattling noises with the new chain. It's gonna be a TON OF FUN disassembling the back wheel to get to the sprocket.

I'm surprised that I have gone so fast through my bike chain. I didn't bike that much in the last year and yet the chain is at its end of life and has been stretched to the end of its maximum tolerance (120,5mm over 10 chain links).
