A segmented bowl I finished this morning, already snapped up by a neighbour. Ash and Teak. #woodwork #woodturning

Walnut bowl, 24cm x 9cm It had two knots that I filled with some teak. Walnut is rather soft, the end grain is a pain to smooth, even with sharp tools, but I did my best. #woodworking #woodturning

24cm vase in cedar, teak, and ash. The cedar comes from an old bed frame that I recuperated. Finished with diluted tung oil and beeswax. #woodworking #woodturning

#woodworking I stupidly tried to saw a fresh hazelnut log and jammed the blade. So I put on a new blade and gave my home made bandsaw a checkup. I&#39;m pretty chuffed about how it&#39;s holding up over the years.

I&#39;ve resurrected my minimalist #blog at https://wittamore.fr It hasn&#39;t been touched in several months, as I&#39;ve been playing with #gopher instead. Taking a fresh look, it wasn&#39;t that bad. It lacks a fediverse connection and could do with a spring clean, but it isn&#39;t as hidden as my gopher hole: gopher://wittamore.fr

After the mastodon.social DDOS I thought it would be a good idea to have my own instance, so I installed #snac2. It is indeed light and fast, but unfortunately I found some operational bugs that stopped me from getting the most out of it. So now I&#39;m trying #gotosocial. I&#39;m giving my contacts a bit of a rollercoaster, but I guess you have to break eggs to make an omlette. Anyway, my new account is @philip

If I write a post on my #gotosocial instance with a link in the text, when posted I see the link. If I do the same on my #mastodon.social account, the post contains the link plus a description of the link and sometimes an image. I&#39;m guessing that mastodon retrieves ogg information, but gotosocial doesn&#39;t. Is there a configuration parameter I&#39;m missing?

I got up this morning and everything hurts, but I made two baguettes from the dough I left in the fridge overnight and made myself some bread, salty butter, and marmalade breakfast, and suddenly the world looks better. #breadbaking

@heavyimage I found the torch hiking pic controversy strange as it's a common winter activity. In Xlibre there's over 50 developers contributing, and there's probably just as many different political views. Tainting an entire project because of one persons views is as dumb as the views in question.

@ilumium @fdroidorg @murena Maybe because it competes with the Bliss weather app?

@murena Hi, I&#39;m wondering if Google&#39;s android application lockdown in september will affect e/OS and the AppLounge #fairphone6 #eos
