My latest #fountainPen #Ink order has arrived: I only needed a couple of blacks (DeAtraments Document, waterproof, and basic staple Pelikan 4001), but I just had to add a few samplers of other DeAtramentis Document shades, plus the KWZ Sheen Machine.
The DeAtramentis Document White (which is sold as fountain pen safe — I wouldn't use it with anything that isn't extremely easy to clean, however) was a surprise because it actually works on black paper! (I bought it to mix it with the other shades, I didn't expect it to be useful on its own)
As for the other shades, this confirms my perception that this line is pretty great, except for the blues, that are horribly feeathering :(
I'll see what happens when I do a few mixes that involve some of those blues.

This link is pretty interesting because they actually tried washing and hurting a bit samples of the various kinds of silk, and they describe what happens, what changes and whether or not it could be considered ruined depending on what the silk is used for.
(also, I'm deeply for CampWashSilkWithWater, btw, and also WhyBotherWithDryCleaningWhenYouCanAvoidIt)
How to wash silk
So there you were, browsing our silk fabric selection and dreaming up a fabulous new dress or pretty top, when all of the sudden your practical side burst in and said: But it’s silk… how will you ever wash it? Well, we’ve been wondering the same thin…Sartor

i.e. it works because other people are doing a lot of not-paid-by-google work to make it work :(
the same link on nitter, for convenience: nitter.net/UofUHealth/status/1…
When people tell you "Google just works" for them, this tweet nicely illustrates one of the reasons why:twitter.com/UofUHealth/status/…

Or in other words: to spend two hours straight playing 0ad in winter I either need gloves or a heated mouse. :D

Dear fediverse,
I'm running #transmission-daemon and I can easily see how much something has been uploaded, but not when that happened.
Does anybody know whether there is a way to get this latter info? ideally as a nice graph, but the raw data would also be fine, if available.
Otherwise, I guess I will just have to poll periodically and build my own data collection?
My usecase is this: for tails I tend to start downloading the new release and stop seeding an old release as soon as the new one is available, as running an old release is not a good idea, but for things like the debian live installer having the latest point release isn't that important, so I only download them when I expect to need them, and knowing that uploading has trickled down to zero lately would be a good hint that I can stop seeding them.

⚠️REMINDER: Only download Inkscape from trusted sources and be cautious about emails with links, even if they claim to be from the project. If there's any doubt go to the source. The latest, validated release will always be available for free on our website.
Boosts appreciated.

Verification achieved!
A normal link in the page body was sufficient, but it did require an actual edit of the profile info on Mastodon to take effect (just saving an unchanged profile is not enough to trigger the verification).

Che voi sappiate, esiste qualcosa per Linux che permetta di farsi un database di font (installati e non: Gimp usa anche quelli non installati) taggandoli in modo personalizzabile?
Per dire, il font sotto potrei taggarlo come "similrusso", e magari anche "spesso", e questo mi risparmierebbe un sacco di tempo a sfogliare un elenco di centinaia di font per trovare quello che mi va bene.

Con il mio background culturale questo font mi fa venire in mente più un frigo (di quelli con gli angoli tondi e il maniglione lungo) che un condizionatore…

CodeFest è il Festival della cultura del codice sorgente, della sua storia, del suo futuro. Organizzato da Codexpo.org e da UniTo
Oltre 30 eventi sul codice sorgente, online, completamente gratuiti.
Il Festival è aperto a tutti: al mondo della formazione e della ricerca (studenti, docenti, studiosi), a quello della programmazione (sviluppatori e imprenditori) e dell’arte (hackers, musicisti, dj, artisti visuali).
Ma soprattutto è rivolto al pubblico generale, ad appassionati e curiosi, a tutti quelli che hanno sentito parlare di codice sorgente ma non sanno bene cosa sia.
Registrazione e partecipazione tramite la piattaforma codefest2021.lynxlab.com

Giovedì 16 settembre il GL-Como torna a fare serate a tema: stavolta
l'argomento è lesana, un programma per gestire inventari di collezioni,
come libri, musica, componenti di elettronica, abbastanza versatile da
poter essere usato ad esempio per un issue tracker personale.
lesana è un programma da riga di comando ed una libreria python, e ne
esistono già un'interfaccia grafica scritta in GTK e un visualizzatore
web.
Saranno presenti gli autori di lesana e delle interfacce grafiche.
L'appuntamento è per giovedì 16 settembre 2021 alle 21:00 all'indirizzo
live.gl-como.it/view.html#GL-C…
dove saranno disponibili lo streaming e una chat per interagire con i
relatori.
Maggiori informazioni su lesana si trovano sul sito del progetto

PROCLAMA
Sento che alcuni malintenzionati traggono partito da misure militari e mosse strategiche delle truppe, per diffondere voci allarmanti ed indurre la popolazione ad atti inconsiderati, come per esempio a convegni in massa in singoli luoghi.
Mentre rammento, che gli autori e i propagatori di voci allarmanti incorrono nel rigore delle Leggi militari, esorto la popolazione a non lasciarsi fuorviare da simili rumori né indurre a siffatti passi inconsiderati, essendoché si sono già prese le più efficaci misure per mantenere l'ordine legale, e ristabilirlo, ovunque venisse turbato, per cui i trasgressori delle Leggi non potrebbero che imputare a sé stessi le gravi conseguenze della loro contravvenzione.
Milano, 29 maggio 1859
L'I. R. Tenente-Maresciallo e Governatore militare della Lombardia,
ANDOR MELCZER di KELLEMES
Dall'Imperiale Regia Stamperia

@Rixty Dixet eh... Altro che modifiche... Ogni tanto a quelli di mastodon non riesco a fare arrivare neanche il messaggio 😅
@Rixty Dixet non ho tanti account... ho solo personalità multiple e conflittuali: pensa che quella mia di pixefeld, a quella mia di friendica, non la può neanche vedere. Letteralmente! 😂😂

whooops, that one DOS fighting game I've played a lot when I was young has been released as freeware (nonFree, just downloadable). Let us download it, what can possibly go wrong?

Everyone always says cats are liquids, but one of the chief qualities of a liquid is that it is incompressible.
But one quick image search for "If I Fits, I Sits" reveals that cats are far from incompressible and are thus something closer to a gas.

Se blocchi un utente, luilei non potrà più vedere le tue attività. Se lo silenzi semplicemente non ricevi più le notifiche delle sue attività sulla tua HOME, ma naturalmente se vai sul suo profilo vedi tutti i suoi toot normalmente. In pratica silenzi chi ti intasa la bacheca e blocchi chi ti sta sui calli.

"As for testing: We have "unstable" and "stable" repos, that is already more than a few volunteers can cope with."
Testing can (and should) be fully automate-able. Maybe 'plugwash' (@d.o.), the sole maintainer of raspbian.org repos, can help with that?
my preciooouuuuuuuuuus has arrived!
Thanks to a combination of coincidences, last week I ordered 50 garment labels in woven cotton (pictured above as they arrived from the german language shop, as a continuous strip, with the writing in white over a black background) with the hashtag #FreeSoftWear to sew on the garments I make for which a Free as in Freedom pattern is available .
Now I need to be better at actually writing compilationsewing instructions for the valentina patterns I put on my git repo, because right now they tend to be... obvious to a quite experienced sewist who already did something similar?

in reply to Elena ``of Valhalla'' • • •What is the Fuchsia like? I looked at it some time ago as a possible water resistant magenta but there were no good local suppliers so I eventually passed it by in favour of Platinum Cassis Black.
Elena ``of Valhalla''
in reply to Stephen Gunnell • •The Fuchsia is one of the well-behaved ones, and it's, well, pretty much magenta. My main aim is to use it for CMKY mixes, but it also looks nice on its own.
From what I see in the online reviews the Platinum Cassis Black looks quite less saturated (I see it is an iron gall one, so that's to be expected, I guess), while this is much more straight pure magenta.
