Uglyhack @uglyhack@mastodon.technology

Still on my way to #emfcamp. I left my plug converter in my last hotel, but I always take extension cords to hacker events. Got a plug at a local hardware store to make a converter. (If anyone at emf has some ferrules I think that would be an improvement).

In Scotland, slowly making my way towards #emf

There's nothing as permanent as a temporary solution

I bought a second hand magnetic stirring/heating thing. I don't have any immediate chemistry to do, and the proper stir bars aren't here yet. I wanted to test it though, so I'm warming up some water and stirring with a paperclip.

Peertube told me to make a banner, so I basically made an ugly collage of thumbnails and random image resources from my videos. It's pretty ugly, but I kind of like it.

How early mathematicians would have written 4x²+3x=10, from https://www.cut-the-knot.org/language/symb.shtml

I love "floating smd" termination on the connector

Mildly interesting: the top can is what I consider normal, it has the side made of one piece of metal, and the bottom is a separate piece attached afterwards. The bottom can has the bottom and side formed from a single sheet of metal. Unfortunately, this means I cant use my can opener to easily drain the beans inside.

I found this image on a companies website, and I just don't understand. Why would you put a mannequin with a lab coat and a helmet outside of a fume hood? I can't think of any reasonable explanation.

I broke the tip off a drill bit after the stores closed, so I decided to try to reshape/sharpen it. All my previous attempts have ended in failure, but somehow it worked this time!

@apetresc I liked your puzzle a while ago, so now I made a board!

These little spools don't fit on my sewing machine, so I made an attachment.

I'm giving that whole "repair stuff instead of throwing it away" thing a try.

At #Balccon they are using an old #sha2017 badge to run a lighting installation!

I just did the WTFpga workshop on an #iCEBreaker, and it brought me joy

International cat day! I don't want to take care of a conscious living being, but luckily the neighbours have a nice one.

Working on some shelving. Steel, of course.

My first 3d printed thing, a hanger for my hot glue gun! I should probably hang around at the fablab more.
