Anyone have any favorite PeerTube instances they can recommend? My instance, Diode Zone, is going away soon and I need to find a new place for my videos or just let them exist only on YouTube

@blitzcitydiy I was just looking at that and seeing you on there! It seems like a good spot

client sent me a "link" to their "high resolution" "artwork"

@misternineham This exact image, but scaled up to 3500 x 2500 pixels

@misternineham the client is obviously happy with how it looks!

So, diode.zone is asking people to look for other peertube homes ... Can anyone recommend a well-moderated, queer-friendly instance for my somewhat rarely published video content?

I have one music video so far that I'd like to keep on the web, and possibly some other music-related stuff to come, probably mostly music videos.

@draco I hadn't heard this, and I have a bunch of videos on there. I guess I need to find another instance, too

@Sylvhem @draco I'm going to look around a bit for another instance, but this might be the end of that channel

The IEB parked next to another trashy ebike. Also notice that a frozen pizza fits perfectly in the baskets I welded up

@acsawdey The baskets are great, but they are a bit too heavy, so I need to work on them a bit on of these days and remove some of the redundant pieces of metal.

If we're being honest, main objection to polyamory is that it makes something exciting and bad (being the other woman) and makes it lame and institutional.

@misternineham we do seem to enjoy taking the fun out of things

Helping @fredy tame a misbehaving rotary encoder that serves as the volume knob on Fiorella the Fit

@fredy the problem, which is a problem on my Honda and my dad's Honda as well, is that the volume level jumps around wildly as you turn the volume knob.

It will go from 4 to 20 to 12 to 30 to zero instead of smoothly changing. I've been avoiding dealing with it on my car for years but I figured that there must be some kind of dirt inside of a rotary encoder.

I was not expecting an Alps Alpine hollow shaft rotary encoder. I also was not expecting it to be a simple matter of the grease inside of it being filthy. I didn't have any dielectric grease, so I just cleaned the grease out and put the encoder back together and it works fine.

Now I need to do this on my own car.

Something changed in outlook so spam messages now appear in my inbox before they get almost instantly reclassified as junk. So, I see a new email, and as I'm about to open it and read it, it disappears.

A fascinating pattern has emerged as I've been drying the glass sludge from my rock tumbler for glaze experiments in ceramics class

MLE_online,
@MLE_online@social.afront.org avatar

@_thegeoff it's powdered glass with some silicon carbide mixed in

MLE_online,
@MLE_online@social.afront.org avatar

@_thegeoff yeah, it seems like it curls in the direction of where it's more damp

MLE_online,
@MLE_online@social.afront.org avatar

@_thegeoff I just had it in my gas oven, set to 350. That's as much data as I have on heating cycles

I got home around 1 am after last night's performance and saw that someone had put a desk/table with nice metal legs and an oak top out on the street.

I've been needing a new desk, so I dragged it home.

I went out and looked at it this morning and the top is not oak. It is bamboo. It's bamboo stamped with a fake oak wood grain pattern. lol. I'll still use it though.

MLE_online,
@MLE_online@social.afront.org avatar

I'm going with hammered brown paint for the metal legs. I think it will contrast with the top enough, but without looking too much like that 2010s speakeasy-steampunk style

The base looks good

@ferrix Yeah, I wanted the legs to kind of disappear and not compete too much with the top

MLE_online,
@MLE_online@social.afront.org avatar

@Benhm3 the legs are concave and could conceivably hold wires
