There are people posting photos of the water in the canals of Venice. It's clear for the first time in a long time.

I wanted to buy a bottle of isopropanol (IPA) but the prices have tripled. Or I cannot buy the cheaper stuff anymore. It wasn't consistently cheap before however I cannot find the cheap kind anywhere. I wanted an additional bottle for my resin 3D printed objects as an replacement run out of it. To my detriment IPA is also used as disinfectant. I've bought mine for 8€ with shipping. The same seller has a bottle for 21€ now. I could use normal ethanol to wash the objects but it isn't as effective.

I was just at the home improvement store and they had signs with a note to keep at least 1m distance to the cashier. Yeah. Sure.

The world is a bunch of chickens, and this time it's not the bird flu. It'd be so easy if people would wash their hands a little bit more often with soap.

Of course the Autobahn was closed when I wanted to drive to my D&D game. It took me 1.5h to get there instead of the usual 45 minutes. Three trucks crashed and one of them leaked a ton of diesel fuel.

Nothing amuses me more in a sudden shocking way like a wet paper towel shredded by a tiny CNC router. I was engraving mug coasters made of slate stone. During the process I wanted to wipe off the cut material that piled up. I came a little bit too close to the cutting bit and it grabbed the paper towel and shredded it to pieces and flung them all over the place. Luckily I put some plastic walls around the CNC for EXACTLY this case.

Nickelodeon's "Glitch Techs" is fine. Not offensive. Not great. Just fine.

I was stressed out today before leaving to work. I was searching for my car key however it took too long and grabbed my spare one from where I keep my car related papers. I knew that I didn't lose them outside. It turned out that the key rolled out of my jeans behind the bed. Enough to not notice on a glance.

After much debating with myself I just ordered a cheap liquid resin 3d printer.

@scribus I can remove all the manga stuff from my recommendations by unchecking the purchased manga for the use for these recommendations. I always had some manga in my recommendations but that was a huge flood. As long as my Youtube recommendations aren't f-uped I'm OK. Every time I watch a video of unknown origin or a topic I don't like in general (like a friend linking to a bonkers flat earther video) I use the incognito mode of my browser. Otherwise I'd live in hell.

Dragonquest Your Story is hard to watch. It jumps so erratic forward in time and the character designs and animations are terrible. 20 minutes in and I'm about to turn it off.

I recommend the show "The Owl House". If it doesn't grab you within the first two minutes it'll probably nothing for you.

Watched episode 3 of Thundercats Roar. The animation is sometimes very involved and springy but the whole random humor just doesn't fit with me.

First time engraving something in stone (slate). It's the crest of the village of our D&D campaign. The engraving isn't ideal because the piece of slate was not very even. But I would say it is a success. http://rainbowdash.net/attachment/875442

Wanted to use my CNC but to my misfortune it's broken. Those crap DRV8825 stepper motor drivers! One of them decided to completely stop working and heat up like a stove when doing nothing. I'm glad I noticed it soon enough to prevent any damage to the workpiece (just a little scratch) or mainboard. So to summarize: two out of three axis work, one is a fire hazard. I ordered replacement drivers in a 5-pack for effectively 2 bucks per piece. As far as replacements go it is fairly cheap to repair.
