Last week of break before I have to head back to work, and we've had a typhoon for most of it. 3 official days off work for everyone. I'm getting right tired of the torrential rain, and keeping balcony drains cleared, but otherwise ok.

There has to be evidence of their process for me to accept it as evidence of understanding/ability. I have made it clear to them that this is necessary. Their job is to convince me that they know what they're doing. (But... I'm teaching HS Mathematics). So .. I'd mark it wrong/incomplete. I'm also working on student understanding of consequences of their actions, so wouldn't give them another opportunity on that exam. They would need to improve things on the next exam.

Transcendental, even.

I have been using home row mods for about 6 months now, and followed this page to tweak timings. I adjusted pretty quickly, and while will still sometimes end up with incorrect inputs, my typing has become crisper (to avoid unwanted mods). I think the benefits outweigh the drawbacks. I really like using my middle fingers for shift.

This one I have has a +2 wand of regrowth and the sandals as the first artifact, though not until...the caves? Maybe earlier.

Working in Shattered 2.3.1

Apparently I uploaded the wrong photo. Here is the seed: XTV-SWY-FXG. Version 2.3.0 of Shattered PD.

Yeah, this resonates. It would make for interesting research, to get away from our self-selecting anecdotal evidence. I have my own suspicion that major family issues also encourage people to move abroad, and that this can become intergenerational....

This is where fractal/fractional dimensions become useful. Living on the surface of the earth puts us in a dimension between 2 and 3, and varies depending on the environment you're living in.

Thank you so much for sharing all that! I've been putting off building a wireless hillside 46(I'm really enjoying my wired one, but the wires are annoying me), and your modifications makes it perfect for me.

Grow carrots. Make goop. Print carrots from goop. Makes perfect sense.

I see. Thanks for sharing. I'll check it out.

Can you share the files for your case? I'm wanting to make the same (Hillside 40, no?), but can only find files for a 46, and am hoping to avoid the learning curve needed for 3d modeling. Thanks.

 

So, after some playing around trying to figure out a preferred physical layout, I decided a Hillside 46 splayed keyboard would be about right. Thanks to Leo at Beekeeb for answering all my questions before ordering and during the build! Surface mount soldering was tricky, but everything works on the first try! I finally can use Dvorak with keycaps in the right place. Keymapping is a work in progress as I am getting used to this, and I am still trying to figure out how to get my Unicode characters to display in Linux (though for the Mac they show up fine). Now for lots of practice to build up new muscle memory, and develop a lighter touch so I don't keep inputting command characters unintentionally.

 

Started a batch of natto this evening. 600g of dry soybeans soaked about 8 hours, then pressure cooked for 20 minutes. Mixed in some spores, put a thin layer of the beans in these glass containers, then covered with a damp cloth and lids. I'll keep these in my makeshift incubator (a cooler with a reptile cage heating mat) overnight at 40C, then put them in the fridge in the morning, and enjoy them the day after.

 

I have some Iranian friends who occasionally bring pickles over to share. I decided to make a fermented version (as my friends usually just use vinegar), and the pickles turned out amazing!

Be warned, this recipe requires a lot of chopping.

I used a recipe similar to the link, but substituted the vinegar with a 2% salt lactoferment. The spicing is crucial to its distinct flavour.

 

I'm digging up some old photos to share. I'm partial to ginger beers, and experimented with other flavours available here (in Taiwan). Roselle is our favourite (with lemon, of course), and always carbonated quickly. Turmeric by itself was too much flavour-wise, but half and half with ginger was tasty.
