[Northeast U.S.A.] Xylocopa virginica resting on a fence post (assets.pxlmo.com)

This time of year, there’s a zillion of these loudly and clumsily zooming around right outside my backdoor. They’re very curious about everything that moves; they’ll just like stare you down, hovering a foot in front of your face. Too cute!! They are also kinda eating the landlords mudroom… but so slowly that I’m...

Celtic Tatting Practice (assets.pxlmo.com)

Trying to get the hang of celtic tatting, just working freehand for now. Real celtic tatting patterns are surprisingly uncommon! There are a lot of cool faux ones, but those won’t teach me to use these shuttles. It doesn’t look very good at all, trying to keep in mind it’s just for practice.

Finished my practice project! (pxlmo.com)

This was a perfect project for getting the very basics of tatting down. Every time I made a mistake I just kept plowing ahead, rather than getting frustrated trying to fix it. Now that the motions feel more natural, it’ll be easier to advance, maybe? The pattern is from Urban Knot Design. Even though it’s chock full of...

First ever Thicket Bean (Phaseolus polystachios) harvest (assets.pxlmo.com)

Sorry this isn’t actually foraging per se, but the only kind of people who’d grow these are probably foragers anyway. I’ve been growing them for a couple years, but this is the first year I had enough to bother trying to eat them! From two plants we got about 1/2 a cup....

That feeling when you're googling the answer to some technical question, and your own Lemmy post appears 4 results down. (lemmy.one)

Hopefully this kind of content is ok here. Up until recently, when I would be searching for some kind of technical info, the top (and best) results would usually all be Reddit posts. I was very pleasantly surprised to do that this time and find a Lemmy post instead!...

Home Carbonation Setup - What is this connection on the left! (lemmy.one)

Hi DIY punks! I need a little help with something. I’ve been trying all sorts of ways to home carbonate things as sustainably as possible. Most have not really worked out as intended, but I’m really really close on this latest attempt. This version is to connect a CO2 tank to a whipped cream dispenser....

Old news, but streaming is possibly worse for the environment than physical media was in its heyday. Can we help mitigate that? (www.rollingstone.com)

I don’t know much about this stuff, first of all… maybe this is well trodden territory already and I just missed it. Sorry if that’s the case! I’m a relatively new FunkWhale user, but it has completely replaced all other music streaming for me....

Dual Chamber Transverse Ocarina (assets.pxlmo.com)

Sounds pretty good! It’s printed out of PHA (polyhydroxyalkanoates). This is a food safe naturally occurring material synthesized by bacteria, and it is fully biodegradable in a reasonable time span, in any biome, with no microplastics. Design from SolidZone, material from Filaments.ca Regen collection. Once the world figures...

Working with huge chunks of formatted text?

Working on a text-based game in HaxeFlixel, and I’m wondering if there’s a best practice for dealing with the text itself. There’s a lot of it, and it’s full of newlines and quotes and such. I imagine putting it in the actual Haxe script is probably not the best way, since you’d have to use a zillion escape characters?...

Enough interest for a Haxe community? (haxe.org)

My friends and I are mostly novices at programming, and we’re practicing by trying to collaborate on a game written in Haxe. It doesn’t seem like there’s any large web presence of Haxe programmers though. Would people have interest in having one here? Just something simple like:...
