My shiny new¹ #solarOven, waiting for the sun to reach it.
Sadly I only have direct sun in the afternoon, so I can't cook lunch with it, but I'm making solar cooked apples for dessert this evening.
It's made of lasercut plywood with aluminium foil on one side, plus acrylic glass to completely close it, and easily disassembles flat. I still need to make a fabric cover (with a mylar layer sandwitched in) for added insulation, to make it perform a bit more like a box oven, while still having the portability advantages of a panel one.
¹ FSVO new: I've had the panels laser cut just before the lockdown, but it took me quite some time to fix some model errors and apply the tinfoil.

I read about that and assumed that it was using the 32 bit microcontroller variant of RISC-V, not the one that runs a full OS etc.
So not very different from the TS-100?
I didn't look into the details, however.
Instead of endlessly composing and deleting toots regarding frightening world events, I want to put out a single toot today.If everything feels like too much, it's okay to step away for a moment and gather yourself and your strength, and help others do the same. I hope that you all are well, and you are able to find a moment (hopefully more!) of respite today.
Dear #rpg playing fediverse,
I haven't played any rpg for more than a decade because of LackOfGroupError, and now I've been vaguely thinking it could be a good time to try to start one campaign via jitsi/videoconferencing.
Any recommendation on a game system we could use? Is Fate the current freely licensed cool things to do? (also, where does one start from for that? core? accelerated? condensed?) or is there anything else I should look into?

Thanks for both answers!
We have a jitsi server (where we do turn the webcam off for regular chat nights), but then I realized that on the same server there is also mumble, we've just not really used it :D
OTOH, I think that the ability to turn the webcam on as needed can be useful.
For dice, it depends on how much the people involved will be fine with going for a storytelling-heavy approach (then we could keep the fun of rolling physical dice with the webcam on and trust each other); if they prefer a more D&D approach we'll probably need an app.
I'll look also into fiasco
Il quarto video della serie "sales pitch di linguaggi di programmazione", che tratta Haskell, è online
"Do or do not. There is no 'try'." attempts to be inspirational, but is hilariously bad advice for many people. "Perfect or worthless" is a stupid dichotomy and its internalization prevents many from living up to their potential. Let people try, fail, and try again, especially in creative pursuits like writing, drawing, and coding.
(I'd recommend reading also the rest of the thread)

Apparently, this is one of the exercises you're supposed to do when learning #watercolour
My current (and first and only :D ) set: a student-grade pre-assembled one that a) suits me just fine, since I'm still at the stage of “first attempts” b) costed about 1 eur less than a similar empty box from the same store, and appears to be practical and of good quality.
(The pink looking thing in the upper right corner is copper, and while it's technically watercolour I've bought it for calligraphy.)

LOL.
(and then there is the fact that it's something soft with rounded borders which is sold by weight, not size. And the other fact that I'm quite sure that the size is wrong, or it would be a tiny package, not the usual ones.)

I've been looking for an #origami document folder (two sides with flaps, and the covers have an internal space for more sheets) that I found a few ages ago, but seems to have disappeared from the internet :(
instead, I found this #envelope for #snailMail, which looks extremely cute :)
I wonder how practical it would be for a real letter :)
Happy 10th Birthday Friendica!
Ten years ago the 1st commit to the git repository of Mistpark was made by Mike Macgirvin, a project that since has become Friendica accumulating some 27.000 commits contributing the work of more then 250 people from all around the world.
Mistpark and Friendica themes from 2010 to 2020
Together we have build a social media platform that had many faces over the years. It has grown from a decentralized communication platform into an integral part of the Fediverse and Federation. Allowing its users to interact with their friends and family across the borders of nodes, projects and physical distance outside the world of data-harvesting corporations.Thank you Mike and everybody else who has contributed their time to the project over the years! And while we are preparing the 2020.06 release of Friendica, lets have a big party to celebrate ten years of this wonderful part of the free social web.

in reply to Elena ``of Valhalla'' • •My first test with water got to about 80°C, but the conditions weren't ideal (and I hope that more insulation will help). I've read about other people going above 100°C (with different ovens, this one is my own experimental design).
The apples are my staple solar oven recipe (I've had a cardboard one for a few years, already): they are able to cook even on marginal days and I like them even more than apples baked in a regular oven.

Unknown parent • •how late does the sun arrive? the best times to cook are between 10 and 14 (solar); if you completely miss that range you probably will only be able to use days that are fully sunny, and only during the summer.
My first attempt was with ovens made from cardboard boxes, so the initial “investment” isn't high, even if you discover that it doesn't work.
(also, I'm still using glass jars covered with black fabric, because I still haven't found a good pot to use.)
