Do you ever, like, wonder how your house is built and start taking walls off to find out?

@neauoire kind of. I took probes in the kitchen with a drill. Because this house was build in 1600 and a part of it is clay and hay and the other part is cement and steel.

@neauoire Wow, this thread is something else. Totally needed my graphical viewer.

Someone suggested that I write a few extra examples to the #Uxn tutorial, so I've added a little dropdown that fills the REPL with various basic programs.

@neauoire Very nice, thank you! I start teaching Uxn in a few weeks, I will definitely point my students to it.

@neauoire Sucks! The gloves, they do nothing. Well, they make you clumsier.

That's one thing I miss about wintering in the Med. Sure, it rained sometimes, but when it didn't, you could do stuff and the paint would dry instead of turning mouldy or just freezing instead (that happened - it looked very ugly when it thawed and then dried days later).

Rek found this old promo material for Pino from way back. Yamaha stopped making sailboats in the 80s.

@neauoire I do wish we saw a bit more "Look how well this was designed" and a bit less "Look how quickly we got this to market!"

Car tires are found to be responsible for 78% of microplastics. Plastic pellets contribute 18%, and textiles and personal care products account for 4% combined.

@neauoire A possible way to reduce microplastics from tyres: euronews.com/green/2023/01/26/ But better would probably be to use or invent other materials.

@neauoire And electric cars only make this worse, as their tires wear faster.

@neauoire This is alarming indeed. I'd like to point out that this quote requires more context though.

The referenced report states this (page 89):

> Eleven percent of total plastics [...] comes from the four key sources [...]

... and then continues to break down these four key sources into 78% from tyres, etc.

So we're talking about 78% of 11%, which is more like 8.6% of measured microplastics.

... But these numbers are from 2016 and are may be higher by now.

Taking out the chainplates to inspect them.

@neauoire “long time” barely seems to cover it!

Tokyo By Bike

@neauoire I was cyberstalking you two for a while but lost you after Mexico during some big life changes for me here in Tokyo. Yesterday a random toot of yours appeared in my timeline, I followed, completed my cyberstalking from Mexico to Japan and now I’m all caught up. I’m glad everything is working out for you guys, and you’re doing what you want, not what you’re told!

In Cowboy Bebop, Jet spends all his time doing repairs on the ship.
That checks out.

@neauoire It's super cute. Bonus points for actually having music when I clicked unmute, you class act, you!

@neauoire With a voyage south looming, an orca-as-cursor is a tad unsettling.

@neauoire cool! Also, I love all your wallpaper art. How much do you have? And do you switch it often?

@neauoire your workspace aesthetic is always on point.
