Work in Progress.
Itβs raining here today, so the temperatures are ok for lighting the forge. Thus I started on this whimsical project, which will involves #metalwork, #woodwork, #leatherwork and probably some #sewing too. #blacksmith #BeMorePirate

Those of us who took up "free Gmail for your domain forever" back around 2008 are now faced with "pay us a monthly fee or lose every purchase linked to your account".
There's no ability to migrate apps, media, etc to another account of course. This feels like extortion.
Is it possible to get the ACCC involved in something like this? I have no idea how to navigate something like that.
yeah I'm not looking forward to this at all. I've mostly been using my "business" domain as primary via Fastmail for the last few years but there's so much linked to what I considered my personal domain under this setup.
One thing it's definitely ensured is that they've set a date for me getting Google completely out of my life. I'm never using any of their services again if I can help it.

βThe library has always been a community center, a place where the public can get something they wouldnβt have otherwise, like free Internet,β another D.C. childrenβs librarian said. βBut it feels like weβve become too good at our jobs. It becomes, βOh, the library can handle it.β Weβre getting more and more tasks and responsibilities that just feel overwhelming.β

The public library is the latest place to pick up a coronavirus test. Librarians are overwhelmed.
Patrons line up for blocks to pick up test kits, and exhausted librarians are getting sick with covid-19 themselves.Julie Zauzmer Weil (The Washington Post)
Future Proof Plays: Kentucky Route Zero - 2022/01/15
KRZ is an indie classic that I'd never played. I found it to be utterly charming! While yes, subtlety is for cowards, I don't necessarily want a work to resolve every tension it sets up.
This was part of my game studio's Future Proof Plays series of streams. Check out our upcoming schedule and our entire set of archives (including my partner's streams) over on YouTube. Follow me over on Twitch to watch my streams live.

The whole wood and brace section will be covered in leather or cloth.

in reply to David de Groot π • • •The leather fitting was quite tricky and the lacing a complete pain, but it works and is functional.
An interesting project overall, with some new techniques and good practice on some I already knew.
Completely off the top of my head, no real plans or drawings.
