Got a cold, Blergh. Supposed to go to ladytron tonight

For some reason I’m imagining a weird mash up between the communications from uk water companies and the IDF.

“Dear sir/madam, defence operatives will soon be operating in your area. During the works your normal services will be unavailable. IDF endeavour to complete works as soon as possible and will contact you again when it is safe to return. Please complete our customer satisfaction questionnaire”

The Journal of Functional Programming (JFP) is open again! https://jfp.episciences.org/

I must be an unusual (neo)vim user. I just want stuff to open new buffers in my current window. Stop fucking with my windows! That means you, nvim-tree; that means you, :Man, that means you :help, etc etc etc

New blog post: My Prusa Mini+ is broken
https://jmtd.net/log/prusa_mini/broken/
Where I lament my broken 3D printer, and consider what to do about it. #3dprinting

@RogerBW it’s to do with changing a path from a symlink to something else. Let me find the -devel thread…

I also discovered that there are certain types of file changes that are not representable in patches within Debian packages. This wasn’t a problem but it was an eye-opener to me.

I got dark mode working on https://ikiwiki.info today!

I think the nozzle has sheared off inside the heatblock of my Prusa Mini+. How screwed am I? #3dprinting

@aleteoryx third act, smug Debian user swoops in and saves the day

@ross yeah perhaps we should just cede F8FF to the apple logo and just use one of the four that nerdfont seem to have assigned the swirl to (then it's at least their fault ;))

That’s the farthest side of my draft blog horizon (2018) addressed. The next oldest draft is from 2020

New blog post: debian swirl font glyph
https://jmtd.net/log/debian_glyph/
I made a small font that maps the Debian swirl glyph to various code points in the Private Use Area. #debian

Prusa appear to no longer distribute printer profiles *without input shaping* for those printers that support it.

My Mini has not reliably printed since input shaping was added.

Does anyone know how easy it is to get ahold of the old profiles?

@noodles perhaps that’s by design then. This happens to be a `public_html`

That's interesting. I can't read some files on a UNIX timeshare by virtue of being in a group. 0604/-rw----r--. Rare to find group membership lowering access

My first shell command of the day

scp {,phobos:}$(which uv)

Flyer for the batcave club. London

@pndc @mwl @noodles my plan for it is purely to use it as a vehicle for invoking crm114; I may disable all the other tests, hopefully I can avoid its performant pain points
