Okay, you might or might not know the constructed language Toki Pona, but we're certainly still learning, so I think we can construct a good metaphor.
( A hypothetical conversation about food. )So, lately we've been reading a lot of travel blog posts from Hundred Rabbits, and it makes us want to blog more. Not daily, but like ... ever, y'know? To create something that people can read.
As the subject line says, this week's been very unfocused because this has been specifically a rest week - and I mean "we told our fellow mods we'd be gone until Monday" rest, we have no unfun obligations at all. (Well, almost none - we posted on our TTRPG patreon and our TTRPG ko-fi, but shh.) Lately we've been in a state of staring at each obligation blankly and wondering if this is ( okay this got a little dark )
, so we really needed some time when we did not have to do that.(...okay, the unfun obligations thing is almost twice - we did set ourselves a goal to get or make a cover image for an itch.io jam. It's not made, and that's okay - the jam is not gonna be until February.)
So, what did this rest week look like?
( ...I mean, I don't know, we weren't paying attention. But [...] )So, like, a lot is happening? But most of it is what we want to do in that moment, and we can drop it whenever. And we do, regularly.
We'll see what happens tomorrow. For today, that's where we're at.
This recipe is based on the one in this recipe post from Kitty Unpretty on Tumblr (cw: meat, dairy), which in turn is based on a more elaborate bread recipe by Jeff Hertzberg and Zoë Francois. Those recipes use volume, though, and we have a kitchen scale, so the following is all weights, measured in baker's percentage: whatever mass of flour you choose is 100%, and all other masses scale accordingly.
(Dairy is mentioned below, but all other described ingredients are vegan.)
( Photo ) ( Ingredients ) ( Procedure ) ( Commentary )Tossing out an idea re: ew0k, "Your Gemini Browser and Server are Probably Doing Certificates Wrong"
There was a geminispace gemlog post we saw recently about certificates describing an issue and we wanted to respond to it. We continue to not be on Geminispace and not be experts in networking anything - our qualifications amount to having seen a YouTube video about Superfish once - so ... yeah, don't go off the fact that we made this suggestion, somebody who knows what they're talking about vet this.
Anyway, we have a metaphor involving four characters - Adrian (who's set up a website), Binny (a computer manufacturer), Cory (a certificate authority), and us (a casual browser) - and two certificates - an old one and a new one.
( Read more... )Like I said, our qualifications amount to watching a YouTube video about Superfish once, so we might just be wrong. And we've never done anything with TLS, so we don't know if this is even feasible for Adrian to do. But it feels like a possibility to consider.
The following bit of fiction is an in-character post-LARP report from a game of Off Recipe, a solo cooking LARP that was a part of the Solo But Not Alone solo-TTRPG charity bundle on itch.io that we just purchased.
