Does anyone have a recommendation for a physical book about #nålbindning (needle binding, nalbinding, nalebinding, nalbindning, naal binding, #viking #stitching, neulakinnas etc).
It's not that I can't find any. It's that there are a lot. And from the blurbs I read it's hard to find out whether they're any good.
Requirements:
- bit of history
- color photos
- decent instructions
- some nice patterns
As it's 50% a gift: bonus point if it's available as a hardcover ;-)

Would you like to inefficiently determine whether your file has an odd or even number of lines using ed(1)?
$ ed file.txt
3141
g/^/P
If your file has an odd number of lines, you'll see the prompt (*), if it has an even number of lines, it won't show the prompt.
Or, you could use = and look at the resulting number to determine if it's odd/even if you prefer. 
The rules around toplessness in the United States didn’t come from biology — they came from culture. For most of American history, society defined the female chest as something sexual, while the male chest was framed as neutral and acceptable in public. This double standard was shaped by past norms, religious influence, and the belief that women’s bodies should be controlled to maintain “public decency.”
Denk gerade viel über Digitales Vergesellschaften nach, also die Frage wie wir digitale Infrastruktur von Kabeln und Rechenzentren bis hin zu Betriebssystemen, Software und Social Media zu öffentlichem Eigentum bekommen.
Also wenn ihr dazu Literatur oder Ideen habt oder Menschen kennt, mit denen man mal sprechen sollte, dann schreibt mir gerne.
