Stuff and Blabla
So… in laws had an issue with their web radio “not connecting to the net”. WiFi was always spotty in that location but now it stopped completely. Turns out that thing retrieves a channel list from grundig dot vtuner dot com and while the general vtuner website still works the server for #grundig does time out. Apparently the model in question is no longer supported as well. Didn’t dig further. In laws decided to buy a newer model. In other words: Repeating the same mistake again. Cloud 💩
It’s that time of the year again. It’s _cold_ outside and I sit at my PC anyway so let’s crunch some numbers to heat up the place: > Dez 04 11:31:35 morpheus boinc[20347]: 04-Dec-2023 11:31:35 [World Community Grid] Requesting new tasks for CPU > Dez 04 11:31:37 morpheus boinc[20347]: 04-Dec-2023 11:31:37 [World Community Grid] Scheduler request failed: HTTP service unavailable Or not. AGAIN? FFS, how long has this migration been going? Feels like nothing changed compared to last year. * DNS works: dig +short scheduler.worldcommunitygrid.org > 199.241.167.118 * HTTP works: curl https://scheduler.worldcommunitygrid.org/boinc/wcg_cgi/fcgi * The WCG server?

Using waxed cloth instead of plastic
Trying to eradicate #plastic waste from the household is hard! I mean beside obvious stuff, like soap instead of shampoo, it’s literally everywhere. I was just introduced to a more unexpected solution by ‘Dimicator’, who’s work I’m following closely for some years now. Roland suggests waxed cloth even in the fridge and not just for #livingHistory or #reenactment – a very #medieval solution: https://exciting-pioneer-6049.ck.page/posts/historical-crafts-natural-raw-materials He also helpfully explains how to #DIY waxed cloth: https://www.patreon.com/posts/90314554 No first hand experience on this yet but tbf we’re already _not_ wrapping food in _single use_ plastic anyway. It is intriguing though. I mean people…
Apparently #FreeSpace2 Open got a #VR feature and FekLeyrTarg demos it using #Diaspora 🤔 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eHVIjbQQbVM Pretty rad 👍 #BSG #BattleStarGalactica
Another night in the #EliteDangerous verse 🚀 Made some progress on the HUD (I think I need a name for that). It does provide me with some additional informations depending on what I’m doing. The Route Plan e.g. disappears automatically when the destination is reached (yeah yeah the Jump count is off, will fix that eventually). Same for scan targets – that also reveal bounties (with rewards in Cr so I know if it’s worth the hassle :D). Really like where this is going.
