How I create static websites for tiny archives.
  • Yeah, I've watched that video, it was fascinating. I also used to live and work in the Birmingham jewellery quarter and walked by the factory a few times. We've also got a pen museum too.

    I want one too, they're so nice.

    (I like how this thread about static websites turned into a conversation about pencils 🤣)

  • Looks like a Faber-Castell.

    If you like mechanical pencils there are some really nice ones made in a factory in Birmingham, UK called Yard-O-Led, they're bit pricey though as they are made of Stirling silver...

  • Fuck paywalls
  • When using the extension on the article above, and using my university as the institute, I get: "Article available here Your library has this article available for you in a different database. [Get Citation] [Access Article]". When using Anna's Archive, I get "Library Access This extension will open when you are looking at databases that your library subscribes to. This will help you access the resources provided by your library."

    If I am using Lean Library Open as an institute and I am on Anna's Archive, I get: "Lean Library Open The extension will only be active when you are on an academic site. If you have any questions, contact us".

    I haven't had any issues with it to be honest.

  • Fuck paywalls
  • There is a browser extension called LeanLibrary, which you can install from here: https://www.technologyfromsage.com/products/lean-library-extension/

    You can get free access to quite a lot of journals, etc. You just have to set it up to "Lean Library Open" as your institute, or to your University/College, if they are subscribed to it. Makes reading articles and stuff much easier.

    Edited and converted RAW in camera, then slightly adjusted the Jpeg in Darkroom.

    Farage urges Zelenskiy to seek Ukraine peace deal with Russia
  • If you use the voyager app, you can go to settings > filters and blocks, then add a keyword to filter out anything containing "Farage".

    It should help with not seeing his mug and stories everywhere.

    If you don't use it, try looking in your app's settings to see if there is something similar.

    Hope that helps somewhat. 🙂

  • Are you prepared for the ramifications of windows 10 EoL?
  • If you wanted to get rid of windows in general, Darktable seems to be a good alternative to lightroom, for raw editing. There's a learning curve, but there are plenty of tutorials available.

    Not sure about Fusion 360 though... Maybe FreeCAD?
