Add client certificate to Bugzilla requests
Hello #Bugwarrior with client cert my old friend. Today I needed to connect a #Bugzilla ticket system to you. I had to tweak it a little though, because I have no idea where to put client certificates for Python’s requests lib and my current customer requires that. Any HTTPS request without will fail with status code 400: No required SSL certificate was sent. On top it’s a self signed so let’s ignore self signed server certs (I know…). For this I edited ~/.local/lib/python3.11/site-packages/bugzilla/_backendxmlrpc.py line 43 from this: to This time I even added my extra bits in a conditional way…
I held an online presentation and talk for 2h about #LinuxGaming some weeks ago **in German**. The presentation itself (20m) went live today with **English subtitles** on the channel of @Sciencekeeper@troet.cafe (Stellanebula project lead). I mention #X4Foundations as example for native games but the main focus is, due to the audience: a huge German Elite Dangerous wing, focused on #EliteDangerous (and some #StarCitizen for good measure). I’m going to release the talk that happened after this eventually but I have to cut this first, which is _a lot_ of work, so no promises yet. Mebbe this is of interest for…

15 Years of Lord Of The Lost
Visited the #lotl concert in #Stuttgart today and had a blast. Been years that I went to LKA Longhorn. Like.. dunno.. 20 or so? And nothing changed 😄 Show was great, felt familiar, what I really like. My personal highlight was “Unstoppable” (originally by Sia). We did hear the struggle in the voice though. Band just recovered from Covid apparently. Hope they don’t overdo it 😅 Anyway, for the curious: The set list “15 Years Of #LordOfTheLost” is available on Spotify at https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2yZvahybiLwDjDJUjldqef (yes yes Spotify evil).
Cutting a replacement blade for my lawnmower
Apparently there is _nobody_ selling a 40cm blade for the G40LM40 / 25157 40V lawnmower by #Greenworks outside of the UK – or claims a shipping time of seven months! Is this the result of Brexit? Well fck this. I ordered a 41cm blade for the G40LM41 / G24X2LM41 model on a hunch. This one was available. Looks like the fastening bolt is the same. Could confirm this when it arrived 4 days later. Sadly it didn’t fit (no security clearance) – which was expected, of course. The fix is rather simple though. At least when you’ve an angle grinder.…
The #kdenlive video editor is simply great 👍 Made an entire 20m voiced presentation with it last week 🤓 That sure was a first but a pretty straight forward process.
Al right peeps, the 1:1 #ColonialViper ( #BSG | https://www.buildsbybaz.com/) build is basically done but Baz is stuck now. He made plans for a trailer to haul it around but he is out of materials: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4EfnB02gxFg Baz is not asking for donations yet. Personally I think he should, because his builds spark joy in the heart of people. Like his awesome build of an #IronMan suit for the benefit of sick kids in hospitals did before. We may even support him without some GoFundMe. If you’re into #cutlery you may be interested in some of his #knives at https://shop.buildsbybaz.com/. I’ll…
We got hardly any snow this year @Shawshank. In fact we didn’t even have to order new food for the heater. That’s not normal at all :-/ Not saying I missed snow but I miss snow. Does this make sense? Anyway, now it’s spring and we get this rich fresh green everywhere that can only be seen for ~2ish weeks each year – and I love it 🤓
