Since a few weeks, my #debian #bookworm system was no longer able to build the initrd.img for new kernels. This morning it couldn't boot at all with a recent kernel (it did with an older one), so I found the time to look into it: it seems that the problem could have been related to the fact that my system still had split /usr; I've installed the #usrmerge package and now the initrd.img has been built.

I've just realized that watercolours with a water brush are the artsy-painty thing that uses less water among all of the ones that I have around the house.
With just a few squeezes and passes on a wiping cloth for washing the brushes, and no other tool that requires washing, it's pretty hard to beat them.
Given the name, that's somewhat counterintuitive, however :)
(yes, I could be using pencils, pastels, pens and a lot of other things that don't require washing at all)

I wanna know what kind of shirt you're supposed to be pinning that to - most shirts I know would fall apart in a heap with that kind of load. it's definitely a comfier option than the neck strap though fer sure
The apron also has a waist belt, the pins only get the load of the bib, not the full strap and most importantly not of whatever ends up in the pocket.
The shirt I was wearing is a relatively flimsy one in cheap cotton voile that I made myself, so it's probably still sturdier than an average fast-fashion shirt? :( also it's in woven fabric and not knit, which helps.

Dear #crochet and #generalNerdery people: let assume that somebody (asking for a friend!) was planning a band of filet crochet that is 5 squares wide (plus two of border) and was tempted by the idea of using Baudot Code to make it spell some text.
Should it have the columns in order 1 2 3 4 5 as they seem to be depicted on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Baudot_Code_-_from_1888_patent.png, or should it be 5 4 1 2 3 as in the position of the keys?
(sadly, (afaik) friendica doesn't support polls, you'll have to write your answer in a comment)

Filed under: I don't really need another #craft project, right?
I've received a piece of vintage lace, of a type that would work nicely on a petticoat ruffle.
While handsewing the linen shirt I'm working on, I've also started to think that the same fabric would also be nice for a petticoat or a petticoat+corset cover combination (and I have enough for it).
But such a garment doesn't call for just a bit of lace at the hem, it calls for some lace on the ruffles, some insertion (and pintucks, dere vill be pintucks), and while of course I have a box of lace of various kinds, I don't have enough for that project.
However, the more I think about it, rather than wanting to look for enough matching lace in the stores, I'm tending towards going for a mix-and-match of looks, joined together by a theme of having some history.
So I'm using some lace that I've been given by different people, and then I want to puppy-eye my mother into doing some crochet lace for me, but then I thought that maybe I should also do some myself.
And thus, yesterday I asked my mother to teach me filet #crochet, I did the bigger square-ish under her guide, and then I've started a sampler band, starting with the simplest pattern to get myself to learn the right tension, and then trying various patterns as I go, until I finish the leftover of crochet lace appropriate yarn I've found in her stash.
I don't have any source on historical people doing something like this, but it's underwear, the silhouette will be correct, and nobody needs to know how it looks (other than the people who will see the pictures here on the fediverse :D )
ETA for the project: maybe a couple of years? Don't hold your collective breaths :D

bello! Di materiali, in tutto, quanto ti è costato? Mi piace l’estetica simile a GreenRoom136 :)
ecco... uno sproposito
ho comprato i materiali quando ho fatto il mio, e tra una cosa e quell'altra credo di averci speso più di 200 euro. però buona parte era perché c'erano dei pezzi minimi di acquisto, e da quella cifra sono usciti i due zaini, e ho ancora quasi tutto il materiale (extra ci sarebbero da prendere webbing, cerniera e accessori) per farne potenzialmente un terzo, e di alcuni materiali (soprattutto 3d mesh e imbottitura) anche di più (in realtà il piano non è di farne un terzo uguale, che non mi servirebbe, ma accessori vari).

Beh, c'è da dire che un conto è comprare i materiali per un solo zaino (o 3) nel negozio sotto casa (ok, negozio che si trova in Germania, ma il principio è quello :) ), un conto è comprarli a pezze intere per la produzione di massa.
Non credo che per averli di qualità possano comunque materiali economici, ma sospetto che li paghino molto meno.
D'altra parte, loro devono anche pagare il tempo di chi li cuce (che spero sia decisamente più veloce di me, che ho impiegato una giornata solo per la penultima cucitura :D ), che invece nel mio caso conta come divertimento e si scala dal prezzo dei materiali :) .

One thing that bothers me while #sewing is trimming the sewing allowances: I understand that having wider allowances makes it easier to sew by machine, but all those strips of fabric waste hurt my feeling even if they end up as stuffing and not in a dump.
So, what I tend to do when sewing french seams is not to sew with half the seam allowance, but sew the first seam at a bit less than that and the second seam at a bit more.
And for flat-felled seams, I tend to cut the fabric with double allowance on just one side, and align the other side at one allowance of distance, as in the picture.
It doesn't really change anything, it's not like I can fit more pieces in the same fabric by saving that 6 mm strip, but it helps my OCD :D
I believe it was the norm in old sewing manuals, but I can't be bothered to look for the source right now, sorry

I took a picture of the test I did with the posca pen, ironed, and then thrown in the washing machine:
The blob on top is where I refreshed the paint on the pen, and I forgot to take a picture before washing it, but I believe it didn't wash away.
It's not great for fabric because it definitely has some rigidity that fabric paint avoids, but I think I can confirm it works.

18th century pocket. *tactical*!
(Picture of something shaped line a 18th century pocket, except it's made of blue cordura with alternating red and white 2.5 cm webbing sewn at regular 4 cm intervals, and the front slit is closed by a water repellent zipper.)
(Picture of the back of the same pocket, where the webbing is blue (in a darker hue than the cordura), there is no slit, but two small belt loops sewn in the top seam.)
I know, to make it properly *tactical* it should have been camo instead of brightly coloured, but I have no camo fabric at home (and honestly have no plan to buy any) and this was a spur-of-the-moment thing made with leftovers from my backpack-and-accessories.

Dear miss manners,
the company my SO works for has been sold, and they are giving away all the gadgets that they have made, including those that would have never been given to the likes of us¹ such as neckties and pocket squares. How long would it be suitable for me, not related to the company in any way, to wear them? Should I respect a formal mourning period before I use the loot I got from the dead body?

c'è da dire che viaggiatreno è di trenitalia, e che non riporta le tratte di trenord, è anche probabile che i dati arrivino direttamente da trenitalia, perchè "gne gne noi i vostri dati non li vogliamo tiè sfigatoni" "senti ci parla, faccia da palla, noi i nostri dati non ve li diamo. brutti e cattivi" "e io non ti ascolto più" "e io non porto più il supertele" "tanto noi giochiamo con SBB CFF FFS che c'hanno il pallone di cuoio con scritto fifa! pllll"
fucsia :blobcatboo: reshared this.
viaggiatreno non riporta le tratte di ferrovienord, tranne qualche stazione, però riporta i treni di trenord che le percorrono (oltre ai treni trenord che percorrono tratte RFI).
E non credo che trenitalia abbia sensori sulle linee ferrovienord, credo che sia ferrovienord a mandare loro i dati (sbagliati), perché con loro ci giocano perché gliel'ha detto la maestra, ma giusto giusto mentre la maestra guarda, appena si gira rubano il pallone.

Inspired by https://a.gup.pe/u/fiberarts (not @-ing because this isn't really fiber arts content) I've just created @FreeSoftWear group for people who want to share and see content about wearables and accessories for which instructions are available and published under a Free Culture License, no matter if it is #knitting, #crochet, #sewing or other #crafts.

This would work like the fiber arts group: @ the group in your #FreeSoftWear related posts so that it gets reshared, including in replies that add content (i.e. anything that isn't just a “love that” or so)

I've just finished #sewing a quick pair of shorts to wear under summer skirts and
a) the sky has just darkened
b) I've realized that I should have taken pictures and published the pattern as #freeSoftWear
oh, well, if they fit well I'm going to make another pair in the same fabric, except *gasp* not-black, and they should be easier to photograph.
also, if they really work as an encouragement for rain, I'm up for making even more pairs :D

Rain shorts... I need that pattern, Berlin is running dry. During the spring month' we only had 50% of the long-term average amount of rain. Your shorts would be really useful!

Re: Can the Debian Project ever fall?
I would like to pay tribute to Arch Linux in this thread. When I have a problem, its solution is most often in the Arch wiki. Hats off, Arch !lists.debian.org

"Can the Debian Project ever fall?" well, let's check the answer on the Arch Wiki! 😂
Molto interessante il messaggio a monte di quello sullo stato di RPM-based-distro e l'ormai declino di Ubuntu.

TFW you go in front of the mirror to try and level the hem of a skirt (pulling up from the waist, it's a 18th century under petticoat) and realize that even if you don't usually wear your glasses indoors you need them to see the marks on the yardstick at hem level.

OTOH, I'm currently walking around the house with a bustle, skirt, and an old sheet used to mock up the skirt draperies; I need to stop doing this and start working in 15 minutes, but I don't want to take those off :D
me: ok, this afternoon I can attach the pocket to the apron I've almost finished and then go outside to take a picture before the thunderstorm arrives
thunderstorm: think again
(it's still not here, but there is definitely not enough light for photos :D )

and it has arrived. and gone (at least, it's not raining anymore).
and I've finished finished the apron.
but it's still a bit too dark for photos, they will have to wait for tomorrow.

later in the afternoon it worked a bit better. what is received on the serial pins goes to the bluetooth serial. As long as I compile with an older version of the esp support, because of https://github.com/espressif/arduino-esp32/issues/5053
Also, I'm aaaaalmost at one ninth of the shawl.
